Right now we’re suffering from a Khedira problem. We need to play a 3 man midfield in big games otherwise we get overrun. The problem is that Khedira is the third best available midfielder we have right now and he’s a passenger in big games. He’s past his prime and not good enough against elite opposition.
Max should turn Berna into a creative midfielder. Berna has the technique, vision and workrate to play in midfield. He could play a similar role to what Di Maria played for Real back in 2014.
Otherwise we can always pray that Cheesio is fit for the most important games of the season.
