No one is in the same league as Busi, Only Rodri has come close. Zubimendi is among the best pivots on the market at the moment. There arent many quality Pivots out there at the moment.
Yes it is a scarce market for sure.
@@PythagorasinBootsadam wharton busi esque?
Rodri couldn't do what Busi did for Barca but Rodri is the better player overall. He was arguably the best player in the world last year.
Rodri is a more complete player, but Busquets did the pivot role better.
@@TheConcernedSum7 That's overlooking the greatest cdm in the world. He reinvented that defensive pivot. In terms of technique and composure on the ball , Rodri don't even come close. Busi was literally the most press reistant player ever.
Like you said Rodri was the best last yeae , Busi dominated the pivot role for a decade and more.
I'm sure Rodri will disappear in his 30s. Busi was instrumental for his team and played till his mid 30s
Bissouma and Endo looking really good on all of those tables.
Does that suggest a bit of big team bias? I don't recall Endo having such good stats at Stuttgart.
I doubt it's bias - but could be a style of play thing? Like Liverpool are super aggressive with winning the ball back - probably breaks loose for Endo more often here. Likewise with Tottenham, at least compared to a team like Stuttgart which probably has to be ok without the ball more often against big teams.
It'll be nice to add these players to your list.
Joao Neves
Mats Wieffer
Joey Veerman
Veerman is literally xhaka clone , love him
I think Joao Neves is more of a Regista, than a Pivot...
I haven't watched other two... Will surely watch them..
i have been waiting for this for a long time
Great work.
Keep it up ❤
I would really appreciate if you consider doing a video about Maxence Caqueret and Youssouf Fofana. In the pivot position, I think they have nice traits to doing a formidable job.
Nice, been waiting on this one... can we get some videos for more established but a bit questionable players like Martinelli, Rodrygo etc...
Post transfer window.
Great analysis as usual Py, after watching this and the Onana vid I'm curious where you see Rice playing in the future for Arsenal, all this talk of LCM/8 and pivots, assuming Rice/Odegaard are definite starters who would be the ideal third MF and how would they fit?
God damn just found this channel, great work
Welcome aboard
As always fantastic video keep it up loved it and best part is intro TikTok answer to tiki taka😂😂😂 did i heard right??❤❤
Yes 😁
The most important factor we tend to forget with player stats is taking the teams they play for, their style of play, the league that team is in into consideration
Merino is playing for the same team and his stats are great.
@@sbtruestone He performs the same duties in the same position?
@@AyaGumede you’re never going to have 2 players with the same role playing at the same time for the same team are you?
@@sbtruestone So, you're proving my point
Exactly, comparing him with Rodri in passes/90 is ridiculous, 50% of Rodri passes are useless because of Guardiola style
Top analysis 👍
Top video this, my first time watching your videos. Very insightful, thorough & balanced. Also my first time seeing zubimendi.
Watching Zubi in action is so pleasing to the eye, im surprised the stats doesn't back that up...
😅 a lot of Modern players have this habit. Look good doing less.
Stats are overrated. The eye test is more important.
Trust your eyes mate...he is so good
Football isn't about some numbers on a paper only proper way to know how good a player is to watch him
@@makei89 Even on eyetest he has no deepl lying playmaking capability, he's inferior to Thomas Partey on the eyetest.
I think you should do one of this analysis videos for young messi and ronaldo
The stats are really surprising, but I feel he could develop to an 8 in the future, a Xhaka type of 8, considering his dribbling, short passing and creative skills, with elite coaching of course.
Mikel coached Xhaka into that 8 role, I’m sure he Can do the same for Zubimendi
But I also think he could fill Jorginho’s role, since both he and Partey are on the way out
youssouf fofana next please
I think Zubimendi to make a bigger step into his progression needs a kind of a mindset like Guardiola, Luis Enrique or Xavi. Yes, Pep has Rodri and Enrique has Ugarte but we never thought of what Rodri is right now, world class CDM and that is thanks to Pep. So for me, whats left for Zubimendi to be world class is Xavi's mind. He's already put De Jong on a highest level, Dembele last year and Pedri as well making him scoring more goals near the box, but needs to keep healthy.
Hes probably going to arsenal which is also promising because hes responsible for making kdb a beast
Xavi is a poor coach lol. He doesn't need another midfielder to ruin. Just look at how poorly his midfielders perform
Poorly midfielders perform? Gundo? De Jong?? Playing bad?? Pedri most of time injured and Gavi now injured, he was improving a lot, specially tackling time, defense and passing.
Are you sure you watch Barsa games or is it with your eyes closed? or is it just because is Barsa and its good sport or habit to hate them or mock them?@@matitolera8159
@@matitolera8159 xavi doesn't have blance in his midifield no Dm no box to box midifield
@@matitolera8159 His midfielders have one of the best performances and the stats speak for themselves because they are the midfield with the highest possession, key passes, chances created etc Its their front three that's terrible. Xabi's problem in barca has never been cuz of midfield. You clearly don't watch Barcelona you just say that cuz they're struggling right now because even the media doesn't say they're poor rather the media talks of how good they play despite the team not doing well. You're just a clown buddy😂😂😂
mainoo would be very interesting too. thanks a lot for your work
Post transfer window.
Tell you what, I could definitely see him having the sort of evolution Gundogan has had, since his Borussia Dortmund days where he was also largely the deepest midfielder, before eventually evolving higher up the field. Zubimendi's almost identical in stature and physical profile, and similarly complete as Gundogan with very natural footballing ability.
Gundogan was one of the biggest midfield talents of his generation pre back injury. I don't see the same level from this guy, might be wrong though.
Oh no, neither do I. Infact that's a point I raised later in my comment, which I eventually deleted, as not to sound too negative. I had concerns myself that at ~25yrs old, really, how much of Zubimendi's ceiling have we already seen. I do insist though, that under proper coaching he could have a similar evolution as a player as did Gundo. Skillset's there.
Unrelated note, would love to see an analysis on Florian Wirtz. Elite talent, who I recently found out was even younger than Musiala! Appreciate your work brother.
@PythagorasinBoots, Could you do for bruno guimaraes. He kinda looks like a very good alternative to zubimendi for barca
@@PythagorasinBootsdo a video on gundogan
Not even close to Gundo in terms of technique. Gundo was great at dribbling even back when he played for Dortmund and they played the CL final against Bayern.
Definitely Guimares for me please. Prem proven and a beast, would look great alongside Rice, Odegaard etc
Please do an analysis of Kobbie Mainoo, maybe more down the line given the sample size but it'd be really interesting to hear your thoughts
Eye test says kid gonna be a 100 Mio cdm soon
I'm feeling a 64-71
Poo poo😂😂
Please do an analysis of youssouf fofona
Amazing analysis as always. Please do Kobie Mainoo and Gernacho!!!
Decent talent. But need to be at a proper, serious club to take their game to the next level & Atm, manutd are not looking like it..
Garnacho is not that good
@@rejoiceezirim5614 yea he isn't atm. But he can improve under a good coach & the right atmosphere
@@rejoiceezirim5614 better than Rashford!
You should do a Lewis Miley video
"Busquets' heir apparent" & the missing piece of Barça's midfield. A sign of what's to come perhaps? Pedri, Zubi & Gavi. I quite like the sound of that & I'm sure I'd love the sight of them in action together even more! No doubt he has to be Barça's #1 priority signing in the summer
He has turned down barca twice very publicly. No way he is joining us and thats not a bad thing as it will give Marc casado the chance to get into the first team
Barca needs a player with more physicality than him. Gavi Pedri and Gündogan also dont have that physicality and Frenkie only has the speed.
@@imransuhail82Casado will never get into the first team as a starter, he is to small for a CDM and the fact Romeu of all players starts over him should give you a indication that he is not good enough
@@imransuhail82I'm aware of his stance ✌🏾"publicly"✌🏾 but privately, a lot of things can happen between now & at the end of the season that justify his decision to act to the contrary such as:
• Missing out on the UCL ¼ finals after the UCL R16 v.s. PSG
• Missing out on 24/25 UCL qualification
• Missing out on a Euro 24 Spain call up (Gavi's injury helps but he can still get overlooked & even if he doesn't, he can still get benched in favour of Rodri)
All of that missing out can make Zubimendi disillusioned with La Real & realize that to progress further in the UCL, play every season in the UCL, not get overlooked for Spain caps at international tournaments & have Rodri benched in favour of him, he needs to move Barcelona.
As for Marc Casado I'd love for him to get & take his chance in the 1st team & having 2 DMs in Zubimendi & Casado, 2 CMs in Pedri & Gavi, 2 AMs in Fermin & Torre & an all rounder in De Jong to call upon would be great depth in quality towards restablishing Barça's midfield as the best in the world.
@@Tombecker123 Genetics is a lottery that once expressed can give someone a natural physical advantage over others, however physicality can be easily obtained & honed, as can technique.
Technique can be honed but it's often confused for someone who's technically gifted. Talent has to be present in the first place. You can train someone to be more physical i.e. Adama Traore.
However, you can't train someone to have the genetic predisposition Adama has for fast twitch muscle fibers & building muscle that enable him to be the explosive athlete he is. Same way you can't train height.
The same can be said for technically gifted players. You can train someone to process information & solve problems but not the same way Messi would. Ronaldo & Messi are great players but their brain's don't perceive problems & solutions the same.
Which is why I'd rather Zubimendi over someone more physical. Zubimendi already sees the game in a way that Barça can hone.
As I mentioned previously physicality can be taught & obtained & that's where intensity comes in, which Zubimendi & Gavi already have in abundance.
How do you put Carrick in the same sentence as Busquets?
Please can you do a tactical analysis on Douglas Luiz?
Please do one of Matts Weifer. Who is bettter between Zubimendi and Weiffer??
Pivot are so scarce nowadays... Your vidoes are analytical, that's rare & good.... Make a video on Young Upcoming 2-3 pivots, if you can..
We will try bro
Rodri,Alonso,Busquets are now Zubimendi
The Spanish generation always surprises
I'd wonder how he compares to Rodri before he went to City. He definitely is a step ahead in terms of education as a single pivot, but I wonder if the fundamentals are similar.
Rodri is strong asf
I don't understand how can you analyse players like that I'm new into this tactical world lol
Please do an analysis on Ferran Torres, i feel like he has very underrated attributes that alot of people dont see
Attributes like?
@@qasimzulfikar8749missing a lot
He's fairly rated
Please do a video on Youssouf Fofana of As Monaco
This is just pure smoke.
What “true strengths” did busquets have? You reasoning for why zubimendi isn’t busquets-esque is exactly what made busquets so unique and elite
Please next xavi simons and johan bakyogo psv
Will definitely come back to this video in a few months time if he joins Arsenal
We’ll come back to this video when he underperforms for us and everyone will see this guy knows much more than Edu Gaspar
@@sbtruestonehe will shine at arsenal, no doubt
Do one on yacine adli
As long as he can break lines in volumes like Partey does, Arsenal will be fine.
PLEASEEE DO LAMINE YAMAL
Reminds me a lot of Kobbie Mainoo. Tidy in buildup, good workrate and can progress the ball well, but isn't present in final third and lacks physicality.
Agreed. Feels like Enzo too.
Mainoo is quite physical for his size
Could you do one on Evan Furgoson
With Jorginho doing well, would he be a good heir in the role Jorgi's been playing recently?
Bro can you make mathys tel video after the window?
I think at the price he is available at, given his rumoured release clause, he could be a bargain in today’s market. if a player like a Douglas Luiz or a Bruno Guimaraes is worth 100m, Zubimendi should be at least 70.
Can someone explains to me what it's meant by have similar issues to what Chelsea have currently with Caicedo and Enzo? I remember Pythag saying that the best partner for Enzo would be Caicedo. Did I miss something?
I think small midfield could work if you have 2 CB that can press and play with high line. That's how Argentina play with Enzo De Poul midfield and Romero as a pressing CB
I said they both would be good partners in a back 3 system but in a back 4, there would need to be a third body in there to make it more solid off the ball.
@@PythagorasinBootsdo a how good is enzo fernandez
Don't see what he really does very well
@@PythagorasinBoots very good point sir. But like I mentioned above you also need to have a specific CB profile. Can you make a video abut Argentina tactics? It is interesting how they have the shortest team and still dominating every game with enzo de poul mcalister midfield
@@PythagorasinBoots Thank you for the clarification.
Would Lavia as a N° 6 with enzo and caicedo as the two N°8s (with Enzo being more advanced) be a balanced Midfield?
Please, do a video of Joao Neves
Please do Radu dragusin
If Xabi Alonso were to replace Klopp has Liverpool manager would Zubimendi be a good signing for the style of play Alonso would look to use?
He would be good enough for Man united since they have not had a controlling midfielder since Carrick. If i were united i would be trying to sign him and get rid of Amrabat and Mctominay. Also by saying so whoever stays with him in the double pivot has to be athletic beast to add legs and dynamism into that midfield since the Epl is very unforgiving.
Well, he deserves a better club than manutd & a better manager than era ten hag😅
He deserves a big club, man United will destroy his career 😢
I agree with both of you on that regard. But on a tactical point of view. United would be the best option since they are the only top team that doesn't have a controlling midfielder
@@HIM3153 man United don't have world class left and right winger, their defence is shit, pressing structure is just shit
@cintusaikia for the moment i think its their midfield that is the biggest issue of all.
I think you didn’t do a justice for him. In aye tasting he is enjoyable player to watch, his passes in deep area are astonishing and i love to have him at Barcelona . Class player🙌
His play in the deep is his best feature, so I do not disagree.
@@PythagorasinBootsAlso I think Busi or Rodri under Pep isn't a fair comparison. As not only has Pep played a vital part in their development but the way his Barça played, his City play & the players at their disposal skews the stats in their favour & facilitates more time on the ball in comparsion to Zubimendi at La Real.
Which is what I understand you tried to mitigate by showing other players but the same argument applies, better coach, better team. I think his numbers will improve upon signing for Barça 🤞🏾🧘🏾♂️🤞🏾, Arsenal, Bayern, City or L'pool which, my bias as a Barça fan aside, are systems he'd excel in.
However, playing alongside Pedri & Gavi at Barça will see Zubimendi boast a chemistry at club level that will not only give him the edge but his best chance of swaying the decision of who to start at CDM for Spain in his favour over Rodri.
But before signing Zubimendi in the summer, I'd love Barça to sign Thiago in January. As what Pedri, Frenkie, Gavi, Fermin & Casado will learn from Thiago will be priceless or worth what it would cost to sign Thiago from L'pool.
With 6 mths left on his contract & L'pool's non-renewal policy for players 30+. Ideally a loan paying 100% of his wages with an obligation to sign & L'pool compensated in performance based add-ons
i.e. €5m for every trophy Barça win at the end of & connected to this season, would suit both parties. Barça & their fans would happily see the club have to pay up to €25m for Thiago because we won the sextuple again 😏
@@john-adriancoker2789 We dont have any such non renewal policy. We would (and likely will) renew Salah, Vvd, Ali in a heartbeat. Thiago wont be renewed because he hasn't kicked a ball in a year and you wont buy him in January because hes still not fit and you can just get him for free in the summer. Hope he can play 5-10 games for us until then, just play the big games, help us win the league and then mentor Pedri/Gavi at Barca sounds like an amazing final chapter for him tbf
@@MrNilsiboy94Ah so that policy doesn't exist then & I hear you but with the depth in quality L'pool boast such as Szobozlai, MacAlister, Jones, Endo, Granvenberch, Elliot, Bajcetic.
L'pool can definitely win the BPL, UEL, FA cup & league cup without Thiago. I want Barça to sign Thiago on loan, pay 100% of his wages with an obligation to sign & perfomance based add-ons.
Gavi's injury, Lewy's not scoring at his standard rate, an overeliance on Pedri, Frenkie, Gundogan to play let alone create & lack of quality cover in front of the defence.
Signing Thiago in January would solve all of these problems & significantly increase Barça's chances for silverware come the end of the season, more than it would L'pool's. Let him go home early 😂
While our midfield depth is great and some of them do have massive potential, right now, not one of them is as good as Thiago. I keep up with our journos and transfer news. Trust me, Thiago isnt going anywhere in January.@@john-adriancoker2789
Do one on Enzo Fernandez. People confuse him too much
Already did, got 100k in 3 days before UA-cam removed it. It's on our Patreon now.
We need Joao neves next
This is what Arteta needs, not Onana
What pivot would u recommend for Barca then?
Despite the lukewarm praise in this video, Zubimendi is the perfect pivot for Barcelona, particularly because his final third woes would be completely nullified by playing alongside Pedri and Gavi/Gundogan.
The other option I could see is Pepelu from Valencia. But he’s more of a DM than a deep lying playmaker, given his stature he is better defensively and he also shows a more robust passing range. But the deep lying playmaker skills are not quite on Zubi’s level and he might need a year or 2 to reach peak form.
Rodri is such an outlier, Inter-generational talent for sure and an all-time great in the making.
I think Zubimendi fits quite well in a double pivot combination of Gavi or De Jong with Pedri or Gundogan as the roaming playmaker. He wouldn’t have the burden of creating in the final 3rd and can just focus on progressing the ball and patching fires in the defence. Plus Gavi and De Jong cover ground fast so he wouldn’t be isolated in defence transitions nor would he have immense responsibility in possession.
Arteta looking for a Jorginho replacement. He loves that profile.
People say his not the player we need but I say he has a shot. The LCM position is vacant and he looks like an Arteta sort of player. At the moment, Arsenal does not have someone who can recycle the ball and defensively switched on besides Rice. There is Partey who is always injury prone. Without Partey we jae relied on Jorginho to progress play and sort of create angles on the left. This is important for build up in Arsenal as Rice still needs to improve this side. Another thing is, if Rice had to be injured, who would cover that 6 role?
Arsenal missed Xhakas availability, fitness and his ability to recycle possession deep. His doing well at Leverkusen. Arsenal might just do with Zubimendis passing and availability.
Zubimendi'd be a better Frenkie replacement for Barca than a Busquets imo. A Wieffer would be better.

Him as 6, rice as lcm and odegarrad as rcm. And arsenal instantly has one of the best midfileds in the world.
Who is a better DLP, and more press resistant between Enzo and zubi?
Zubi better as a pure DLP, Enzo is overall a better ball carrier.
PLEASE DO FLORENTINO LUIS
Already done, it's on our Patreon.
Kubo next!
Will add to the list.
I have a question 🙋♂️. Is he a similar type of player to tomas party???
Partey more destructive defensively and not as much pausa in lower third but overall a better CDM, this guy more like a Jorginho type
You should analyze Andre from Fluminense, much better than Zubimendi, probably going to Fulham
I am hearing that we(Arsenal) are interested in him but I have to be honest, I am not super impressed by him. I think he is decent at the moment...nothing more.
I'm an Arsenal fan and I agree. But Top Gooners will hype this player to be the next best thing since sliced bread.
Haven't you noticed that fans tend to get hyped up by any player linked to their club? Unless such a player is already known to be an established flop in their previous club
Arsenal need someone like rodri who is stronger and can keep the ball
@@AbAhmed-st1tpcool, unfortunately there is no one like Rodri, like not even close
@@AbAhmed-st1tp we already have that kind of player, Rice. I believe Zubimendi would be a Partey replacement. I passer who can split defences while Rice holds/ recycles possession or drive with the ball when needed.
Would you consider doing a classic analysis of Roy Keane?
I dont think arsenal need someone who can play in the pivot role, more a midfielder who can play at the number 8 position
My idolo endo pretty much top of all them list a site to behold😮💨
If you got Lavia who can't seem to get fit you'd have some top shelf deep-lying playmaker. He wipes the floor with this Zubimendi for almost the same price.
What is the difference between a DLP and a regista?
DLP picks it up off centre backs, we define regista as the middle third controller so Xavi instead of Busquets/Guardiola.
@@PythagorasinBootshow about someone like Enzo Fernandez? Think he does both role quite well.
would love a video on jakub kiwior feel like he is very underrated
He is a pile of shit, the premier league is out of his league... and I'm a arsenal fan
He’s garbage
Where is the Kobbie Mainoo video
Post transfer window.
@@PythagorasinBoots ❤
What about Fabinho
he’d be great at Bayern Munich. Kimmich and Zubimendi next to each other would cook!
According to reports Bayern is heavily interested in him.
But we are looking for a defense cover for Kimmich, i dont know if Zubimendi is the right guy for that.
I feel Kimmich and Zubimendi are too similar in their strengths and weaknesses.
I don’t think they need a defensive cover.. At least not somebody who isn’t creative.. Most games, we struggle against defensive minded teams, due to the lack of creativity in the midfield.
Zubimendi next to Kimmich would allow Kimmich to attack more. We would benefit greatly..
Palhinha doesn’t help us in build up or anything.
Tchoaumeni would be the perfect fit, but we cannot get him.
The DM market is very bad so Zubimendi would fit.
But i honestly do believe our own Pavlovic can become a nice fit, similar skill set as Zubimendi
LAMINE YAMAL BRO??? PLEASE 🙏🏾
kobbie Mainoo video please chief
Post Transfer window
EBL The G, O, A, T
Joao neves please.
Endrick ?
Yeh I am not convinced he is going to give anything to Arsenal
Can you make kimmich bro?
Focusing on transfers atm
Arsenal desperately needs a goalgetter. Not another ball passer.
So what are we doing if Rice gets injured? We are literally fucked. On the other hand, if Jesus or one of the wingers gets injured, Havertz and Trossard can both play as strikers or one can play as a winger. Number 8 should be the priority although I do badly want a striker, too. Just a really bad market for strikers right now.
Onana is the best for us.
Is Palinha better than Zubimendi ?
Palhinha is one of best destroyers in the world , but his pass a little suspect , but he is a Beats defending and in aerial game
After watching this video as barca fan i don't want barca to sign zubimendi. For fan perceptive i would prefer thomas partey instead of anyother barca can afford him and he want to leave arsenal.
Martin ødegaard?
Great analysis, you hasically read my mind regarding my opinion of him.
Why do we want him? I don’t know… or maybe i do but i don’t agree with this transfer at all. A pairing of Rice Merino and Odegaard would make so much more sense for us rather than buying Zubi for a high fee of 50m
I will take onana
He'll never be good enough for a single pivot. That's a unicorn role.
Very very few players can do that, rodri, rice, partey. That's it.
And yet Bruno Fernandez is regarded as the best player we have 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
So what is he good at?
Pivot play.
Nex how good Claudio Jeremías Echeverri
Pedro Neto
Frimpong
Joao Neves
Do one on florentino luis
Daym this guy annihilated zubimendi I don't want him now.
That's no new busquet
Amadou Onana is much more better for Barca, he will be too weak for Barca on that CDM role.
So another Jorginho
Yep. I watched a couple Sociedad matches this season just to scout him. And he looked like Jorginho, with a tiny bit more mobility but not as good spreading the ball.
I think he’d feel like getting a young Jorginho.
