Or instead of when he is knackered and needs a rest.Maybe pep is going to play gvardiol in beside Rodri!

Paying for his age and potential. Cole Palmer is older than him and Gvardiol has led club and country for a few years.Will reserve judgement on this one. Not sure he is going to actually improve us and when we are paying a world record fee for a defender that is a strange comment to make.
For the money I’m expecting a mixture of stones and Dias
Spot on mateAbsolutely.
Remember all the shit 100m Jack Grealish got mate?
Well, he’s just helped us win the Treble whilst creating the most chances of any player in the Champions League.
Our guys know what they’re doing.
Good thing that's what you're getting then - with a bit of Laporte thrown in for good measure.Will reserve judgement on this one. Not sure he is going to actually improve us and when we are paying a world record fee for a defender that is a strange comment to make.

He sure is something special. This video shows a lot of why he is just as good as LB and possibly could play the inverted role as well. Cant wait to see him in our shirt!
Just because he’s arguably the best young centre-half in the world, and with Walker, Stones, Akanji, Dias, Ake and Gvardiol as defensive options we’ll be absolutely rock solid at the back.Why?
No doubt a good player but doesn’t the defence who’ve won a treble deserve their places in the pecking order?
Reminds me of the Kevin Bond signing which split up the really promising Cayon and Reid partnership in the early 80’s
Correct.His stats for tackling weren’t the best last season so hopefully pep can develop him into winning more tackles. Even though I’m pretty sure we make the least amount of tackles in the league.
But we are getting a combination of both Laporte and Ake.Correct.
We don't tackle, we block, then we win the ball back.
