The question is: Can he maintain it? Pjanic's career has been pretty much ups and downs.

Talent wise he's on that level but can he be as consistent? I'm hoping so.
He has been pretty consistent from the second half of last season IMO. Maybe he just needed a better environment to get that consistency.

Gotta remember that it takes time to adjust to a new environment, with a midfield in flux, and a significant amount of tactical variation over the course of last season.

Max asked him to play a few very different roles, and it took him a little while to find consistency. He's really flourishing in the deeper role, and obviously continuity in a well defined role helps breed consistency. Like many have said, adding a player with Blaise's quality/characteristics also helps take a bit of pressure off him.

Anyway, 27 years young and his game is not dependent on pace. This guy is just entering his prime, and I feel as though he'll age like a fine wine. Mira is going to be an extremely good player for a long time yet.

Damn. Absolute bargain.
Definitely one of Beppe's masterstrokes. Pretty lucky to have these men running the show.
