Nah, this season's a write off, so the occasional need for backup/rotation shouldn't be our priority.
Much better to get good fits where we have none so the team starts finding its groove under these tactics.

MONSTER!!
Did you watch the city game? He was sensational.
Bit weird. He's been steadily improving since Amorim came in.
Some player this lad is.
Absolutely brilliant today
Yes he was. I messaged in my WhatsApp group..."Ugarte is a baller".
First name on the teamsheet.
Our most important player, our midfield will get destroyed and bypassed without him in the team.
We best hope he doesn’t get injured this season as we don’t have any alternatives anywhere near close to his ability.

Players excel when managers know how to use them well. I still think Amad should play centrally instead of out wide.
A great buy must be said. Several of our recent buys are better than what we had it’s just not looked like that in Dec.
What a player, literally everywhere. Perfect DM.
I can't understand it at all. Still 23 as well, brilliant signing for us, ludicrous sale for them.
It is actually nice to have signed a young midfielder for the role instead of old Casemiro or old Matic.
Never mind us, ETH didn’t fancy himAnd to think so many on here turned their noses up at this guy because he wasn't starting for PSG.
It’s sacrilege but he really does give me early Kante vibes. Tackles everything non stop, sneaky good on the ball and in tight spaces, good footballing brain, and seems to be really quick.
Agreed. Both were great for a while but declined so sharply. With Ugarte, we've got much longer you'd think.
I think at this point the players ETH didn’t fancy would be the ideal ETH team quite easily.Never mind us, ETH didn’t fancy him
Whoever started the “he’s not good with the ball” rumors must’ve been watching someone else, because right now, I’m just grateful we bought this Ugarte and not the imposter they were talking about. From what I’ve seen so far, he’s better than all of our central midfielders (bar Mainoo), including Bruno. And that’s either a sad reflection of our squad or proof I’ve been blatantly lied to.
Also, he’s a decent passer—not exactly pulling out Pirlo-level vision, but solid and accurate. Honestly, I’ll take a guy who doesn’t try to reinvent football every time he touches the ball. So far, he’s looking like an absolute steal. And today? He was a monster out there.

Superb game from him. Really good chemistry with Mainoo too.
Yes but his opponent today is world class. He won’t have to play against opponents of that quality every week. A good step forward by Mainoo.
Ugarte what a performance. Absolute beast. MoM
Please dont jinx it, but you should be right.
Touch wood.
Best summer signing we made. Funny it's the one the directors had to fight Ten Hag on
Our man of the match for me today
Outstanding today. Our player of the season so far. We are so much worse without him, as seen versus Newcastle.
Wish he had scored a winner today so we could resurrect the old Diego Forlan chant:
"He comes from Uruguay
He made the Scousers cry"

He's been good off the ball, bang average on it. Today he was good on both.
Phenomenal player.
Excellent today. Bossed the middle of the park at Anfield against the best team in the country. Him and Mainoo could have something really good going a few more games together in this system.
exactly what we needed in the middle
He’s been consistently good on both. Not sure what you’re watching.
He’s absolutely class
Excellent performance, got around the pitch, broke up play, recovered possession and kept the ball well when he had it.
Agree, the way he keeps the ball under pressure at times, can't be underestimated.
He was that guy who played that pass to the wing for that final attack. It was a pretty insane pass.
I had huge doubts about him after watching him so often with PSG, but credit where its due he’s been superb for us since Amorim took over
when i said we should exchange whatsapp details, you said you didn’t have it.
The good thing is after Arsenal, it’s not a bad run of games.
If they get their heads in the game, there’s an opportunity for the players to build some momentum if they really want it.
After the shitshow vs Newcastle I can’t imagine Amorim being particularly desperate to rotate unless forced.
Splendid today, we need someone who can deputise for him to a decent level as a player like this is so important to this system.
We signed a real, peak-age central midfielder. What an idea.
