We need a complete overhaul in midfield, every position. Look at Pjanic now, working his already moody self into the ground to where he is basically useless. With Tonali, now you would have rotation at regista at least.
He is though.. He is just annoying when trying to defend as he doesnt care or at least looks like he doesnt care.
Attacking wise - Look at his moves he is clearly one of our best midfielders when comes to attacking

tonali isn't your textbook regista though. he's a pretty good passer, but he's more of a box to box player.
btw pjanic is the least of our problems. we'd need a proper 6 though. we have a couple of them, neither are good enough atm.
i'd obviously keep pjanic as he's our best and most reliable midfielder, matuidi has an other year in his legs/lungs, bentancur has (unfulfilled) potential and would be a bad deal to sell, but the others are a mess. ~4 months into the season and neither of can, ramsey and rabiot can be trusted for whatever reason. 3 freebies on a total of ~19m net, great job.
1. Rabiot is not shit - Wait and see he has quality in him but he needs to give a damn when defending as he is shit when he doesnt care
2. Eriksen - Im actually not a big fan of his but he obviously better than all our mid (put aside Pjanic) - Anyway I dont think we will get him in January and when June arrives he will have a Real Madrid address on his forehead (IMO)
3. Pogba - This is the one I really want - He can dribble and has underrated vision + he is very good when shooting from distance and has physique so he upgrades us in many ways.
It doesnt matter how we continue - I get to the same conclusion - Kante will be needed here as Matuidi is our only battling midfielder and while he is doing a decent job (yeah he is not that terrible) Kante will do a much better job..

Did you ever watch football?! Rabiot is clearly twice as good as these two combined.. The only reason I see not playing him is not fully adapted but even this is weird now..
I wanted Rabiot but now... I want him out.. The guy is the laziest player I have ever seen - He only fights for a ball if the player is within 1cm from him..
I agree of our current midfield I'd keep only 2 guys Pjanic and Bentancur.
I would ship everyonelse
main targets being Pogba,Milinkovic,Eriksen,Tonali and Zaniolo
But now the problem is...
Ramsey 7m
Rabiot 7m
Emre Can 4.5m
Khedira 6m
Matuidi 4m
How the fuck will we manage to ship them?
Well Matuid's contract expiring if they don't renew it (and I won't believe it but they would probably do it)
Khedira expiring in 2021 -_____- he'll never leave without giving him money
Emre Can could be sold as being young and not having a big big wage
Rabiot will we find someone wanting him??
We'll never be able to offload Ramsey giving how not healthy he is and high wages

We are such a notty club, Santa at best, only bring us trash for x-mas, we shouldn't even bothering to open such threads, it only creates some hype and high hopes, only to disappoint at the end...
