Zubimendi leaves the team injured. He seems to be showing signs of pain in his abductor muscle.A good brown. Let it be a scare, but in 9 days we will be in San Mamés.
We all need a good brown at least once a day.

If he’s better than the central midfielders we currently have available then we should sign him. If not, no point.
Incredibly detailed analysis. Clinton Morrison esque.
It's snow joke I am just wondering.That’s a bit Rudolph you

To the point, and is the only point that matters. All the 'back up' crap, is exactly that....crap. Absolutely pointless buying anyone who isn't better in Rodris role than Kova....and of players that are attainable, besides possibly Zubamendi, we are more likely to find rocking horse shit ;)If he’s better than the central midfielders we currently have available then we should sign him. If not, no point.
Hopefully we've learned from Philips and Nunes signings.To the point, and is the only point that matters. All the 'back up' crap, is exactly that....crap.

We need top top quality midfield signings. They get to play under Pep and get to fight every year for the PL and CL.
Of course there will be a lot of competition in their position but the top players have the confidence to push for a starting spot no matter who is in the team.

He’s such a fantastic player and the most obvious choice to replace Rodri. The question is, are we really willing to pay that sum in January for someone who will likely be benched again next season when Rodri is fit?

As the DM role is clearly the central cog to the machine that is our defense and in many ways offense- pretty easy answer.He’s such a fantastic player and the most obvious choice to replace Rodri.

Pretty sure Nunes has been one of our best players of late.
It’s been a pretty low bar in fairness.Pretty sure Nunes has been one of our best players of late.
In midfield?Pretty sure Nunes has been one of our best players of late.
We were in for Rice when we already had Rodri. My guess is that the intention was to play Rice and Rodri together.He’s such a fantastic player and the most obvious choice to replace Rodri.

If he is almost as good as Rodri, then I can see both playing together as dual pivots and giving each other some rest in a long season. I see little downside
Rice was never going to sign for us, was it Tixki and the club been naughty and forcing Arsenal to pay more than they thought?We were in for Rice when we already had Rodri. My guess is that the intention was to play Rice and Rodri together.

We have previous of doing the same to the rags ;)
Don't agree with in general. Specifically on the wing, yes, agree. We need top quality midfield signings as our last 3 haven't been good.In general.

Not going to predict Pep that would be stupid. Going off his history though I can't see him playing a double pIvot. He's always done that by having a defender step into midfield.Who knows though he might.Rodri x Zubimendi double pivot. That's exactly what we need. With Wirtz just in front ;-)

Rodri into the stones role while he recovers the knee, get an extra AM in the middle with that. :DNot going to predict Pep that would be stupid.
