Yea nice take on it and completely get where you’re coming from, he’s certainly not a priority to upgrade but I do still think if we want to win big things he ‘could’ be upgraded but yea if we had world class wing backs CB’s a reliable GK and more attacking creativity depth beyond Kulu then playing 2 out of 3 of PEH Bentancur and Bissouma most weeks would probably be ok.I agree with everything you said aside from the 'needs upgrading' part.
I think you over-estimate this sqaud and under-estimate the importance of availability.
Having a 6.5/10 player do the dirty work all the time allows the better players to play.
I think PEH knows this too and I'm pretty sure Conte rates him. He is similar to Conte himself as a player.
