A preseason friendly is not what would make a decision like that on. MAybe give him some minutes at the end of the first few games to see how he gets on and gradually increase it if he does well.
On another note, I changed my user name based on the commentators pronunciation tonight.
How are a few minutes at the end of the game better than pre season games?? He seems in better shape than Matteo, so should start vs Newcastle.
He's more in competition with Torreira and Gwen (and maybe even Ceballos) for that box-to-box/driving midfield role. Wouldn't solve our main problem in midfield in Xhaka's sitting/holding/defensive midfield role.
But credit to him. He had a good pre-season.
Don't know enough about Ceballos' creativity but a midflield 3 of Torreira, Willock and Ceballos in theory could be brilliant provided they know when to push forward and when to hang back.
Xhaka is an anomaly at DM because his worst traits are harassing players, high energy, interceptions and tracking runners.
He is our new Aaron Ramsey. Absolute brilliant. Composed, working hard, technical good. Has to start.
