I thought he played far more for forward than next to Rodri. I expected him to play deeper though as well.he works *really* well next to rodri. they are actually quite similar in play.
Agree about the air of quality. He has a sense of ease about his play, makes it look very effortless even when he is doing a lot of work which is usually the sign of a top quality player.Happy to have him onboard. Steady start and he has that air of quality that I expect we'll see more of as he settles in.
It'll be a 60+ game season. He'll have his time to shine.
I think those are the 3 best Center midsWon't be long till we see a Rodri - Kovacic - Nunes midfield. Was great tonight. Few great crosses too which should have been converted.

Nunez will be a key player for us. It will take time for him to bed in, not least because the Rodri/Kovacic combo is already looking so brilliant for us.Extremely good signs for his first start albeit against not the best opposition, needs to play on saturday
He’s got a great engine on him and he covers an incredible amount of ground.Got to be honest,i knew very little about him.
He is far better than i could have imagined,and a genuine alternative/or partner to Rodri when required.Both can cover the defensive or attacking duties accordingly.
Great signing,add Kova into the mix and we are golden.
