While it makes some sense. We have a lot of younger midfielders, having 3 senior midfielders (ca 30+) when everyone else is under 25 feels like the right number.

I don’t want all three of them to ever play together again but one or two a game will be invaluable — especially from the bench.

Milner has gone. Losing 2 of your 4 “seen it all midfielders” feels like too many.

Sell Thiago > Buy RB > Make Trent’s role more hybrid in the team
