Not a chance.
Good to hear that his renewal is close, he is an excellent squad member. It does not matter if he never starts regularly in midfield, or even if he is in the first 11. He will continue to get more minutes than some of the first 11, at multiple positions. His versatility is very valuable.
His defensive positioning when playing RB continues to be scary. But you have to admit, his defensive results as RB are much improved from last season. Offensively, at RB, as of now he is much better than Semedo. Semedo continues to look like he does not know how to contribute to the attack, despite the evident talent.

What an assist
He is slowly turning into probably the most underrated RB in the woorld. still some room for improvement on the defensive end

Not bcos Roberto isnt good as a RB but if EV were to play Busquets than Rakitic needs to be dropped and Iniesta could possibly take up the RCM role. And Roberto can move up to RW to put more crosses, with the absence of Dembele. Semedo can then try to find back his confidence in the rb spot.

Although he's still not aggressive enough for my liking, he still manages to make more good openings for teammates from his RB position than Rakitic. Only reason i can think of why he isn't played in midfield is Valverde's obsession with keeping tight defense and Rakitics is really good holding mid. Roberto does fail in defense more than Raki, but on the other hand he sometimes creates spaces for teammates in attack out of nothing. Probably a big dilemma for conservative Valverde, when choosing whom to play where.
