Won’t get on his back. He shouldn’t be being played on his own in defensive midfield. That’s not what his game is.

You may as well put Cherki there.

His profile is closer to Kev’s in the sense of attacking intent and lack of defensive nous than it is Rodri or Gundo.

How we didn’t know that (presuming we didn’t) when we bought him and how Pep hasn’t realised I have no idea.

If that is his profile then we never should have signed him in the first place.
 
Done fuck all since the Wolves game. Offers zero in midfield, anonymous in fact. Needs a rocket up his ricker.
 
Im not going to lay into him for being shit as a 6. He isnt that and that is on the manager for forcing him to play there. It is his own doing that I've yet to see him make and win a single tackle in his city career though, he's an absolute fanny. (as are too many in our side)

staggered that he stayed on with the first set of subs, when he went back into his supposed position, he was somehow even more anonymous. Carries the ball forward before running down blind alleys or smashing it over/wide. What else does he do? Currently stealing a living and shouldn't be anywhere near the starting 11.

The only thing he has in common with KDB is that they’re both human. I’d take KDB over him right now and that’s with the snapped hamstring.
 
No clue what to do with him anymore. You can’t play someone into form we saw that last season with Foden. I’d give Lewis a try at RCM he has connections with everyone
 
For his age experience he ain’t been great but it’s only 9 league games in! He has to get up to speed soon or he will be sat on the bench..
 
The problem with this player is that he’s not a passer, he’s just a runner. And that’s exactly why we struggle. We’ve got no one in midfield who can pass the ball properly anymore. KDB could do it in his sleep, eyes closed, and still find the perfect man. Now there’s just nobody like that left in the team. Hopefully Cherki can be that guy one day.
