And I think you're underrating his passing somewhat.

Hes not in the upper echelons of CMs in the world or anything, but you could do worse.
We csn do much worse

Jake livermore is on the standby list

But basically i agree on him being meat and potatoes, if you rated all his skills they would all be like a 6.5 out of 10, hes a great squad player and seems like a good guy in the room, i imagine hes vice captain too, but he just doesn't fit with the team

I would have rather had big jonj in there beside dier, pinging balls up to the front

The way the team is constructed, the worry is who is going to be attacking, since neither dier or henderson really get forward well, so if we have 5 at the back it leaves the front 3 isolated, whereas if there was a cm who could attack a bit its more balanced

As it is now its a very defensive setup
