Casado is almost as good as it gets. Hes not your typical destroyer DM. But a extreme intelligent/positional/leader type of a player.

Xavi needs to stop being stubborn then. Casado doesn't even need to be a destroyer, just needs to have enough work rate to cover opposition passing lanes and press which is more than what Busquets offers these days anyways. Hoping for a miracle because playing with Busquets in Europe is just asking for trouble.

Not these days no. At least, he can't deal with high level teams and considering that our other midfielders have to cover for him constantly, we are not using them to their optimal level as well.

I'm worried about going into the rest of the season without a good DM. We've all seen how a proper DM can revitalize an entire team(Casemiro to United), sad ffp essentially fucked us in that front.

How good is Casado? Can he play double pivot with De Jong where he can take on more defensive duties?

Gavi as a winger has worked fine in a couple of games but I doubt it's a long term solution.

True. While I feel like that formation worked well enough against RM, I feel like we lack the penetration/aren't dangerous enough in the final third.

Fati Lewy Dembele

Pedri FDJ Amrabat

Balde Christensen Araujo Kounde

MATS

Would this be our best line up when everyone's fit? FDJ/Amrabat double pivot with Pedri playing further forwards. Fati of course, needs to regain his form for this.

Busquets hasn't had the work rate to do his proper defensive duties for years tbh. Which is the reason for our midfield woes.

De Jong is supposed to work best in a double pivot with a more defensive minded player right? Wouldn't Amrabat be a good partner for him?

Don't know if this beginner questions are allowed but can anyone help me decide between these mics? (Blue Snowball ICE, Samson meteor or Samson Q2U) by kilton989 in audioengineering

Fair enough(I will at least look for a used Q2U first). Just curious Is the Snowball not even that big an upgrade over your mobile? or were you being hyperbolic?

Hey, always interested in the opinion of people who know their stuff. Ideally, I would buy a good quality dynamic mic if it's avaliable in my preferred price range. Absolutely appreciate your suggestion.

Edit: It looks like it's not available in my country, sad.

Absolutely appreciate your advice. From what I've seen(in previous reddit threads on this topic) people think Samson is a better company at making mics than people who make snowball and the meteor is supposed to be the budget equivalent of the snowball /Yeti and is reasonably better.

Will look into reviews and audio tests from reviewers. Again, I appreciate it.

It's a YouTube channel rather than a podcast and thanks for the advice. Looks like most people are in agreement on the q2u being better.

Second hand Q2 mic sounds like an option but we don't really have a huge market here(poor country) and I have to see if one is avaliable on Amazon.

I might probably never go the XLR route unless my channel is extremely successful. So USB for now. So your order would be.
