If something happens to Gravenbirch, can Endo cover well enough? He is great at cameos and has a great attitude.
What about Bajcetic? Is he ready to rotate in the first team?
I don’t think Endo is the first replacement if something happens in those double-pivot spots to either Gravenberch or Mac Allister. Jones is probably the first one to go in any of those deeper roles. The rest, such as Szobo potentially also getting game time there, we’ll see how he does that. Bajcetic is injured unfortunately and couldn’t take part in our pre-season so far. I guess he’ll get himself fit and perhaps another loan or remains here until January as an additional option.
Maca can be used in that role and we now have options to fill up Maca’s role. We are still banging on about a DM even though we won a title without one.
Right now Endo is our “closer” for seeing out wins, and he’s currently our 4th choice CB, maybe 3rd at the moment since Gomez is injured.
Versatile, reliable, tenacious, and glad he’s still part of our squad.
