If he doesn't play in a defensive role he should do fine.

Frankly, I don't know at the moment. Xavi is not the better option, as he's kinda burned out, he can't play a whole season (CL, Copa, La Liga, Int. Football) anymore (that was two years ago). But we had to sell Thiago so to give Cesc another go in midfield. Now we don't have Cesc nor Thiago, but we bought Rakitic.
Let's see.

A midfield of Rakitic,Busi and Iniesta seems solid. Not spectacular but really solid.Hope it works out well.
I think it was a good decision to offload Cesc and buy rakiti as his successor. We earn about 15m with those 2 deals and probably Ivan has a lower salary than cesc had. Plus he is eager to prove himself at a big Club (boost for the Club)...and most importantly he'll probably accepts a rotation-role (at least more than cesc did)...and he's 5 cm taller than cesc 
Hope he does well, can definitely fight with Iniesta and Rafinha for the midfield spots (and Xavi, if he stays).

Fight with Rafinha for spots...What is it with this forum and overestimating Rafinha's current level?
No need to mock. He's more likely to fight with Roberto for that spot, to be honest. I think our midfield will be great this season.

Rafinha was one of the very best youngsters in La Liga last season, and certainly one of the most impressive considering the team he played for. Add to that the fact that Lucho knows him very well, and I can't really see why you feel the need to mock people who are expecting him to fight for a spot in the team the coming season.
