The Spanish boss replaced Steven Gerrard at Villa Park in October 2022, quickly shifting the team to a 4-2-3-1 system that would no longer use the Brazilian as a pure holding midfielder.

“What he did was simple,” Luiz said of Emery in a recent interview with the Guardian. “He organised my game well with Boubacar Kamara. Kamara’s arrival helped me a lot. He’s a young player I’ve always got on well with, who has always understood my game style. With his arrival, I’ve had more freedom. The freedom that Unai has given me with Kamara has made my job a lot easier. You can clearly see that.”

This makes me think the best fit next to Luiz would be someone more defensive minded, like Locatelli. But then again, Motta’s system is different than Emery’s, so who knows.

we really going to criticize height now?

like 4 of the greatst cms in the last 15 years of football have been xavi 170cm iniesta 172 cm pirlo 177 cm and kante 168 cms
pay him no mind, probably just another brainless eastern european who'd preferJuraj Kucka in our midfield over a shorter technical god.

grinta>technique according to these clowns
