I confess I think Gio is a terrific footballer. The thought that we’d trade him for Fati just makes zero sense to me. Maddison has been outstanding in the two matches to date and has looked like the on field leader. But his role is crucial and the only player in our squad that I think is a like for like is Gio and the drop off in quality is negligible. Fati feels like a really lazy bit of business with a huge amount of hoping for the best attached. Barcelona would dine out on trading Fati for Gio a player they want.
