I think he's below average there. Over the course of an entire season, I wouldn't want him there. For a game once in a while, fine.

what is the issue you see? He just lacks the timing to dictate game?

I guess i would like him there as I am fond of his strength and tackling.

Absolutely. Guy is strong and fearless in tackles.

Too many touches on the ball. Head is down a lot. One touch passing is not great. If he gets pressed, he could be in a lot of trouble. Everything is a bit too slow.

For example, even though Bentancur is still a prospect, he plays with his head up. When the ball is coming to him, he does not have to stare at the ball, instead he looks for options while the ball is coming at him.

The gold standard is Pirlo. He would look behind him when the ball was rolling to him.

Bent plays it too safe. He is too afraid to try and get the ball forward. At least with Can, he isn't afraid to make a gutsy run forward with the ball to try and create something. Max noted that weakness about Bent too, "needs to take more risks in attack".

Ya but Bentancur was playing B2B all year. In that context, I agree he plays it too safe. That's just his limitation though as a B2B. Not quite good enough to take those risks. As a DM it's fine to play it safe.

Can is better as a B2B. Neither is ideal IMO.

Emre Can picked up an ankle injury during yesterday's training session, Expected to recover in few days. [Sky]

Here we go

lol and so it begins.

I'd be more worried if it was a muscle injury.

can he play Sarriball or too slow?

Do the B2B mids need to be quick for Sarriball? Just quick-minded, I thought - as in quick to pass (and that's a serious question... is speed part of Sarri's formula?). From recollection, Allegri had a problem with him for that very reason last season. Held onto the ball too long, was a slow decision maker. But he definitely has technique and a decent football brain.

Well, Jorginho definitely isn't a demon of pace.

Yeah, but played regista.

 

[Strickland]

Can survived Klopps gegenpressing, he will do fine as b2b under Sarri

 

[dolph]

He should be used as a CB. He does not have the skill set to play as a CM, with Sarri as the coach. Either that or sell him.

obviously i was referring to slow to pass.

 

[MikeM]

Looks a bit quicker than he did at this time last year.

Could be useful then?
