The more I think about playing him at CM, the more it makes sense...what do the good people of the forum think?

He's a really good RM I would just use him there

@fluffymnuffy I play with a RW so his defensive stats would be largely unused. Is his finishing an issue at all?

Could try him at rb

His H/L work rates are too much of a liability, defensively

Got him in draft and he seems like a better outside mid not winter

Not with a h/l workrate. He will leave your CB's exposed too many times. Besides he doesn't have the strength to outmuscle players. It's not always about pace and go for TOTKS Casemiro instead.

@truegunn3r i do see where you're coming from however I honestly don't mind one CM with low defensive work rates, even more so when said person is a good defender anyway. I trust my backline/other CMs enough to cover. I feel he's kanteish in the sense that he feels quite strong with his high aggression and balance so I don't think that will be much of a problem. My team is serie A based so Casemiro won't work unfortunately!
