For me Bentancur is the perfect 8. Great presser, good for the odd goal, good link-up play in tight spaces.
Bissouma is the obvious 6 for me. Our most press-resistant midfielder, great defensively and ideal for ticking the ball over without giving it away. He's also a bit crap going forward so is wasted high up the pitch.
Love Bentancur but he has the odd game where his passing is off the boil and he gives it away sloppily. Don't like that in a 6.
If Bissouma is injured then we drop Bentancur back to 6 and play Sarr as the 8.
I think his passing is better than Both Bissoma and Hjobjerg, he covers ground effortlessly, turns on a sixpence.
He's the best 6 at the club, you just don't know it yet.
