You would not want a player who would be an upgrade on all our current CM options, a strange opinion. The way I see it he is a upgrade on Henderson and Allen.
Exactly. Cringeworthy some of the comments around here, "no, we can't bring in that top class player, what would then happen to my favourite rubbish player?!"
I'm of the opinion that we need a total revamp in midfield. Rip it up and start from scratch. Put Can at the base of the midfield as a DM, we know he can do it AND get forward. Bring in Pjanic. And Coutinho as the AM. if Henderson and Allen are so amazing, they will end up playing better than Pjanic and send him to the bench. But I think when we see someone like Pjanic come in, we will start to see what a REAL top class midfielder looks like these days.
so Can The Enforcer as DM, Pjanic as CM, Coutinho as AM. Ibe, Sterling, and Sturridge in the front three. That's a league winning combination there IMO.
