Which is why most think we need a player that is capable of both playing in Rodris position and next to him as an 8. Seen very few that suggest we should sign a 6 that will only get minutes when Rodri needs a rest.

U mean like kovacic? Saying we need to sign an 8 that can also play as a 6 he would have to be some some real talent to play before bernardo foden kdb or alongside 1 of them. The only way I see such a player coming in is if nunes leaves. 12 months down the line might be a different story with possibly bernardo and kdb to be replaced.Which is why most think we need a player that is capable of both playing in Rodris position and next to him as an 8.

We need a back up striker and that’s it. Can see us actually going into the season in profit from transfers and keeping our powder dry for next season when the bigger rebuild will come. KDB, Bernardo Walker and potentially Ederson will be off. Plus we don’t know what’s going to happen with pep.

Frustrating that Zubimendi is seemingly going to that fucking shower!
he isnt going to come to us to sit on the bench behind rodri, he does that for spain, they cant get the real deal so they got someone not as goodFrustrating that Zubimendi is seemingly going to that fucking shower!

Interesting that we didn’t even try. He surely could’ve played in the 8 position? Or even next to Rodri who had freedom to go forward a bit.
Especially given it’s a Txiki special release clause.
Good signing for the dippers if they pull it off and convince him to leave Spain.

I dont think the player we are looking for is bench player mate? I think Pep may want Rodri to be able to push on slightly or a proper double pivot

Like you say, a Txiki special but last i seen, the player wants to stay in Spain so we`ll see what happens.
If we wanted him and there was a release clause that low dont you think we would be going for himI dont think the player we are looking for is bench player mate? I think Pep may want Rodri to be able to push on slightly or a proper double pivot

Pep's never played a double pivot,and unless he thinks Zubimendi is a better 8 than Bernardo or Kovacic ,and I don't,we won't want him.I dont think the player we are looking for is bench player mate? I think Pep may want Rodri to be able to push on slightly or a proper double pivot
