Lol (as the kids say).
That's part of the reason he is paid so well.
To make the right calls on players.
No room for sentiment in this business and making the wrong calls on and off the field the manager is and should be the first under the gun.
But what has Zab done wrong apart from get an injury and be sidelined for half of the season? He never gets involved in silly off field antics and has been one of our most consistent performers during the past 4/5 years.

I am not saying he has done anything wrong on or off the field.
What is beyond dispute is that our squad needs a shake up and personally I think Zab might not be part of Pep's plans into the future.
I have said I believe he has enough to offer to be a squad member and we know with our injury record which hopefully will improve under new management he will get ample game time as a non first eleven selection starter when fit I also believe we need quality that is better than what we already have in the left and right back positions starting from day one next season.
Invariably no matter the number of games the team that does best is the one that is most stable especially in defence.
I have no qualms if he is still with us next season but provided we get better players in that role over the summer and I would expect we will I have no qualms if he goes.

As he was last season when we apparently allowed Juventus a free run at his signature.In fairness,shifting the wages of our current two is probably no easy task.Best option realistically is Alex Sandro for Left back.

Sandro and Gaya. Alaba seems a bit of a pipe dream to me. Have to say though, Gaya has been very poor this season.

Sandro, Gaya, Bernat or Ric Rod, and use Angelino and/or Maffeo as backups. Alaba is ideal but i see no way hes leaving bayern ever.
