He's in a bad form, but rewatching the highlights of some of the games, he has an enormous amount of space to cover with the way we're playing right now.
Putting Mascherano there wouldn't solve anything as he's even worse than Busquets under pressure as a CDM, and with the opposition pressing him and the amount of space he'd have to cover, even he would struggle big time.
Makes sense. Busi's passing success rate in the Man. City defeat was 92% [57 accurate passes out of a total of 62]. Only Raki had a better rate at 93% [25 s. passes out of 27]. Busi's prob was speed and movement off the ball. Raki as a Stopper/Defensive Sweeper would secure the back and provide more options for faster tempo/shorter passes tactics. Game would be tighter, easier to build from the back and more cohesive
edit: Denis Suarez could sub with Gomes and Rafi could swap with Bob to further confuse every1 and their pet chihuahua
