Under Certainly you could add that at some point we will have a patch of injuries. People always forget it happens every year and this year is a very congested schedule, champions league and one pre season friendly. We need signings like this to compete with pool, chelsea and city, they are two deep across this board. This really allows tactical flexibility and depth in midfield.Certainly
1. Squad depth (midfield).
2. CAM 2nd choice, no more Lingard, Mata and Pereira there.
3. Bruno cover and rotation.
Question marks
4. Potential future CDM?
5. Back-up plan Pogba leaving?
With that said I don't see him as a CDM. At Ajax he did play in a pivot but due to their quality compared to their competition he had a lot of freedom to roam. He has the physical attributes but he plays his best in and around the box.
He's played 101 minutes and has a goal. Does anyone understand why this thread was created?
