Still don't get this lad. I'm sure someone will pop up with stats showing his first time release passing stats are the best in Europe for players over 6 foot...

Yeh I’m not seeing it and never have. He just isn’t at the races for where we want to be.

We won’t win a major trophy with this lad in the side.

Why the fuck is this thread so busy? Last time I checked the cdms job(in our team) was to protect the back 4 and recycle possession keeping the opponent under pressure. 6 clean sheets in a row

Enough is enough he’s not good enough to start.

He helped create utd best chances today......one giving it away and then fouling pogba.....second one in the penalty incident that was then overtunred its him missing the challenge in midfield that is the root cause of it.
And because he affects the balance of our midfield as against anyone half decent he cant be trusted to play on his own without Gundogan or Ferna next to him.......
He is an average player in this league and is exposed if Pep plays the way he did in our best seasons.......He is not the future and as another poster put it....we will struggle to win things with him in the team/squad

We won’t do anything while he is in the team. That “shot” at the end summed him up.

£60m+ for one of the most average players I’ve seen.

Waste of space, dropping back in between stones an dias to make a 5 yard pass side. Yeah not bad but you loose an attacking option, debruynes getting smothered in the final third while rodris sipping tea.

The CDM’s job is to be the link man between the defence and the attacking midfielders, not by playing splitting balls or fancy flicks or dinks, but by passing it forward, looking for options. Gareth Barry was fantastic at it, simple 5-10 yard passes, meaningful passes to better players.

It is no surprise that we have gone from one of the most exciting teams in Europe to one of the most boring since he signed (for a record!!!!!)

Problem is Ferna can't do the job on his own any more.
