Unbelievable that Xavi saw finished Busquets as a better option the entirety of last season and so far this one too.
Needs to be given a proper run of games there now to get adjusted to the position and comfortable, and could give even better performances.
At the least does not sink the team with total lack of legs.
The irony is even Busquets thinks he was done, wanting to move to the MLS in the summer.
Frenkie needs a string of games now so the team can build around a different style of midfield, and also the trust to fail just as Busquets errors have been overlooked for 5 years, because of when his unique set of skills comes off.
Too small a sample size for example, but today we saw how the setup benefitted Gavi while Pedri was too peripheral until the game slowed down in the second half.
So ideally Frenkie gets the next 3 big games as the starting defensive midfield.
