The papers reported the opposite.Klopp wanted to play him as a box to box and can wanted Dm.
Don't know if it is true, because allegri didn't play him as a Dm that much.
Another whacky tactical masterstroke from Allegri hey...hybrid CM/CB/RB all in the same game. Covering for both Pjanic and Cancelo whenever they were in attacking areas. It really worked well. His best game for us by far.

Was not a fan of the signing when we made it (not the player per say, but the wages are ridiculous), and wasn't really impressed by him so far but man he played the role against Madrid to perfection, if we keep playing that tactic then he can become important to us. Even then, I think he would be a good DM, protecting the defence and letting our midfielders move up, much prefer him there than b2b
It's like its infused to every Uruguyuan defensive player, you have to be a major dirty prick per automatic. Or a total savage weasel in attacking players like Suarez.
