Best player at the club last season apart from KaneHis stats for Uruguay in the WC were insane. You're right, he'll be incredible in this new system with the shackles off

Was wondering about his position.Cannot wait to see this guy play in Anges System, think he will play as one of the 8’s in a midfield 3 of him Bissouma and Maddison
Was wondering about his position.
Think he could score 10 goals easy as an 8.
But he’s one of the most positionally smart and disciplined players we have. He’d be great as a 6.
We got Bissouma and young Sarr to run the game from deep. Feel like a waste to not use Bentancur high up, he could be a big scorer for us if he recovers from his injury ok.
Yeah, he's most definitely not a 6
Get him alongside Maddison. High pressing and on the end of chances in the box.
Don’t disagree but he’s great at breaking the press as well
Nearly every player wants to get back early, and it's not always a good thing. Last few years I've seen two guys locally, playing field sports at a high level, return before the 9 month mark and re-injure a knee within 7/8 weeks. I'd be happier to see him re-introduced gradually than expected to make a big impact before November. Not really suggesting you meant otherwise, just a bit of a ramble.He's definitely coming back early.
Elite mentality
When did he do that?Hes also great at losing the ball in stupid places. His strengths lay in pressing. He'd be wasted as a 6 in this system.
No more than any other player. And he definitely takes more risks so I’d say he’s better at retaining the ball in dangerous areas than most players.When did he do that?

Haven’t seen it once for usIn his Juve hit-piece low-light vid that got circulated to show how shit he is when we signed him.
Can't wait for this guy to get back, our season went to shit when we lost him last year...

Is like to get him a genuinely top class partner to replace Hojbjerg.
Not so sure about that.His name is Yves Bissouma.
Not so sure about that.
I think most people's starting three in the middle would be Bentacur - Bissouma - Maddison
