Good game, put himself about and protected the defence.

Exactly this. Pretty good showing. He really did get stuck in more than usual. The guy is a big boy and he should use his physicality and put himself about like this more often.

We really need one of Locatelli, Aouar or Pogba. Rabiot/ Bentancur will shine with one of them on the pitch.

Felt that us playing deeper and more compact helped him a lot.

Yes. Folowwed Pirlo's instructions to the letter and was great doing it.

This. He has the all the characteristics of a deep-lying midfielder and few of a no 8. Hope he realizes this himself.

master of backpasses. so much ability wow.

His mum won't let him play that deep

Mamma's boy has to be the star of the team

I've been saying this since before he joined and I think he is much more suited to it then Bentancur but for whatever reason it doesn't happen

 

[Adrian]

Story of his career...impresses in a deeper midfielder role but never wants to play it. His mummy must put it in his contract or something. Arthur the obvious choice if he can get his body right but right now rabiot is better than bentancur in that role. Hope pirlo starts him there.

Agreed. Locatelli is my pick from those three. Pogba will cost so, so much and I've been watching Aouar. He lacks something, that guy. Sadly, Locatelli's best position is Rabiot's best position.

Locatelli would be better at it though because he can create from deep. In fact, he can create from anywhere. He wants to help create chances. You don't get that vibe from Rabiot ever.

Is it his hair?

What a coincidence, Juventus wants Everton to spend more than 30m to sign Rabiot as well!

 

[Dostoevsky]

I'm far by being impressed by Rabiot. Just like I'm not impressed by either Arthur or even Benta.

It's not that I wouldn't sell Rabiot, I would, but what scares me is the need of having a quality mid now with the current setup. It's kinda scary to think we'd line up 3 new midfield players for the next season although arguably it's very needed to do so.

This would be perfect! We sell him and buy Locatelli for pretty much the same price. The better player on more sustainable wages. It's a win-win.

I know stats don't give the full picture but I did a whoscored.com comparison between Bentancur and Locatelli for this season and last, and there ain't much difference between them. Hopefully we're not all wrong about Loca.

I would imagine Sassuolo in general have a much worse record than we do.Surely going to affect Locatelli's individual stats too

Could be. Then again, he's the main man in Sassuolo, while that wouldn't be the case here. And Sassuolo's opponents probably play a more open game than they would against Juve. So i wouldn't expect certain of his stats like key passes, assists, forward passes to necessarily increase if he played at Juve.

On the other hand having better teammates could lift his game.

You never know. I just hope we finally solve our midfield crisis and aren't still discussing this this time next year.
