I'd love to see this with Rice vs SARRin 2021/22 - Bissouma had better defensive numbers.
Editing this as I posted the wrong year for Bissouma - in 2021/22 id argue they were very similar indeed.

in 2020/21 Bissouma is better at most defensive actions for sure

Sarr barely played.
Going forward I mean, after-his last game for us if he keeps up them performances, id like to see how that compares to the "best DM in the world and £100 million was a bargain" Mr Carb (AKA Declan Rice)
Thats the trouble though, some of our Highly pampered rejects would rather stay and collect a wage then move on and actually play football, Fair play to Winks for not doing this!It is absolutely insane how this club is unable to offload players. We have so many players and literally 7 days to accomplish it. We had all fucking summer. Then we have dier just happy to waste a season collecting wages to sit at home.

EDIT - After a larger sample size of games
There is no indication this has anything to do with the club interfering. The news a few weeks back was that they aren’t requiring a fee due to his service to the club, and to make it easy for him.Dear god would it really cost the club that much to pay off Hugo’s last year and let him sort out his future for himself?
Better than the alternatives. Tanganga always injured or out of form. Dier and Sanchez useless. Lot's of issues then and still now.Clement Lenglet | Football Stats | No Club | Season 2022/2023 | 2013- | Soccer Base

Conte "liked" Lenglet.
The Frenchman made 35 appearances for THFC last season
Dier, Lloris, Tanganga, Sanchez and Ndombele all have interested clubs actually, all of them but Tanganga rejected moves (don't blame Sanchez though).Isn’t it the player’s agent’s job to drum up interest and bring those interested clubs to the table ?
Probably to do with the role Bissouma played for Brighton - will be interesting how it compares to his attacking role this season.
This is per 90 Rice vs Bentancur in 2021/22 - not much in it

This is per 90 Rice vs Bentancur in 2022/23 - again not that much in it

Conte also had a ton of money, he decided we should get Richarlison for 60m and Porro for 40m. The idea that Bastoni was a "proper CB" is a hilarious, he would have had exactly the same issues Lenglet had.
