Many things: pace, skills, creativity, etc. Plus Pep rates him. No doubt he should score more goals. But he scored 9 goals in La Liga aged 19 (how many from our current attackers could do it, Haaland aside?), so it's not a given he will be a bad goalscorer.

It's funny that people who have never played or managed at professional level back themselves to know better than Pep whether a player is good enough. When Pep thinks a player isn't good enough, he doesn't play him, e.g., Phillips (or Nunes in midfield).
And its also funny how people who pay to go every week cant have an opinion. I've watched football long enough to be able to say what I see, and all I've seen from him is his inability to score and his undoubted ability of taking the wrong option

Do you not think Pep had any input into the purchase of Phillips?
 
I’d go with:

—————————-Donnarumma—————————-
Khusanov———Dias———Gvardiol———O’Reilly
—————————Nico———Kovačić————————
———Cherki———-—Foden——-——Marmoush—-
———————————Haaland———————————

We concede the fewest goals when Dias and Gvardiol play as a CB pair.

Khusanov and O’Reilly are better defensively and we have no idea which side Semenyo will play from.

A bit of solidity in midfield with Nico and Kovačić together. Both can join in with attacks, as can O’Reilly at times with Marmoush tucking inside when he does.

Then let the front four loose as it’s full of goals and creativity.


I don’t think Pep will though. I think he’ll go with Nunes LB, BSilva RW, Reijnders CM, Doku LW.
I wasn’t far off with what I thought Pep would do^
