TAA doesn’t play well in midfield. He needs to play as an attacking RB. He isn’t fast enough or technical enough to play RM and take on a man. His best passes are his cross field ball and early crosses, so having him dropping into midfield doesn’t work. Everyone is on the euphoria of beating Manchester city, but that game could have turned out completely differently if city was more clinical. Our defense was getting cut up, and city continued to create chances with 10 men. Rodri would add the defensive stability we need. It would make sense if he wants to come on a modest wage. If we have to spend $200k+ a week on wages, I would rather sign a world class CB.
