He played there occasionally for PSG and looked good.
The problem with Rabiot now is the guy refuses to pass more than 5m. And if he sees a player all alone on the wing , he'll put his head down and run 35m with the ball to give a 5m pass instead of what should be an easy long ball at this level. By then the opponent have already covered the space.
I don't know if it's a mental thing or something but at this point it's become ridiculous. .

I talking about the moment he decide to become a defensive midfielder back in his Brazil days
He have a tryout for club selection, he is actually a striker. But because most of the trialist want to be a striker, he instead choose to be a defensive midfielder where not much trialist interested in that position. So he have a better chance to be selected. And now he is one of the best defensive midfielder in the world just because that simple choice

Rabiot has come from a solid PSG team, is currently surrounded by world-class players with France yet there has never been any improvement. He should be a standout player in our mediocre midfield but he isn't. Nobody can even give an area he excels in: doesn't help close out games, doesn't assist, doesn't score, doesn't get in the box, doesn't cover the defence so I'm struggling to find a use for the guy.
Rabiot did well March onwards last season, gets called up for France, far from il top player starter level for ideal top midfield but showed he might be useful. But was never gonna play well in this game.
Had just returned from injury, not 100% match fit, and it takes bigger players even longer to get back to 100%.
I can buy Locatelli being benched after just arriving and not being fully match fit himself, but this decision was as terribad as certain interwebs fan faction's Rabiot and general every player is now worth 0m kneejerking based on last game. The latter was just more predictable.

He played regista at PSG?

But after with Tuchel, Tuchel prefer Marquinhos or even Veratti as CDM. Or Rabiot and Veratti as double pivot.
Talking about Regista, what Locatelli's role in Sassuolo before. Was it not as no. 6 (regista)? He mostly played as double pivot with Maxime Lopez, right? So Maxime Lopez is the number 6 - regista (Veratti's role)?
