Look at how Madrid are built. Physical athletes who can run and work relentlessy. Not saying we should copy that wholesale but we really do lack players with that profile, especially in midfield.
Not a fan of Casado. He just seems so lightweight for a DM. At least with Gavi he has tenacity. I just dont get that with Casado but i might be wrong here.
He isn't but can play there if needed. Based on Opta he had the most interceptions per 90 minutes (2.3), possession regains per 90 (9.5) etc. I think he would fit in good for us as a DM or box to box.
It sucks to see RM winning CL year after year, signing the best players, Bellingham last year and Mbappe this summer while we're struggling. Feck.
At the same time, it would be great for LA Liga as a whole I guess.
