How will Pep set us up?

[Brendan110_0]

im wondering if he might turn dinho into a CB like he did with mascherano?

Looked good vs the Rags when he slotted in, possible just like Kompany did.

I don't think dinho likes playing at Centre Back though judging by some of his interviews, he probably doesn't mind filling in for a game to help the team but if he really doesn't like playing there then there's no chance to turn a player into a top CB that way.

Serious question - Will Pep be bringing in a different medical, dietician, fitness and conditioning teams?

He'll bring in Lorenzo Buenaventura, who is his Fitness coach, the guy who designs training sessions to make the players as fit as possible and also takes charge of their rehab.

As for a dietician, it was the first thing he did when he went to Bayern but Who knows?

No need, each day he will take 5 loaves and 2 fishes and feed the squad. Any injuries will be cured by them touching his robes. We will then inherit the earth.

Look at the Bayern homepage.
He for sure will bring Buonaventura (fitness coach), Torrent (assistant coach) and Planchert (video-analyst) with him. And use what is in the club. But - if there is no dietican already there he will for sure take care of it together with the club.

Oh, yes, and his shadow Manuel Estiarte who does not have a function apart from being his shadow and best friend.

Estiarte does have a function it's just not easy to pin down. He's obviously contributes something because he's not just around the club, he's on the bench during games and interacts with the players.

Hart

Denayer Kompany Laporte Clichy

Gundogan
Pogba Fernandinho

KDB Isco
Kun​

 

[Kompany is King]

So Gundogan the "defensive" midfielder.
I know he can pass, has good control and is mobile.
Is he good at tackling and being the last midfielder?
