Martín Zubimendi

Absolutely get this guy in. No idea how Rodri will return, but I've said for a while that Rodders can also be a huge threat further forward if someone else grows into the defensive role too. Having these two would give us so many options, if they develop a good understanding.

I'm also of the hope that signing a Spanish player is indicative of Pep staying. Straws I know, but after this past week or two any positive is welcome!
 
Will be interesting to see if he's that good.
Most people are basing it on 45 minutes of football that they've seen him play.

Also as with all Pep signings but especially DM's there will be a bedding in period

Where has this info come from? I imagine Liverpool watched him for a bit longer before they tried to sign him in the summer

I think it's based on the fact he replaced Rodri at HT against England and played well and most commenting on here haven't watched more of him than that.

We need someone else in the middle of the park if we're going to win anything this season. He's an excellent player who can help us this season and also play alongside Rodri moving forwards so it makes perfect sense to bring him in. If we can stay in the fight then bring in some reinforcements in January we could still challenge in the big competitions.

Whilst we've got injuries and fatigue, other than Kovacic there's a real lack of energy in the middle of the park even with Gundo and De Bruyne fully fit. There are a lot of good teams in the league, with a lot of energy and a lot of quality and we need to improve if we're going to win it.

Agree totally & to be honest, Rodri needs a motivational challenge for his place - as well as a rest during a long season - when he returns.
