Pedri made 17 recoveries today—no player in Europe’s top 5 leagues has made more in a single game this season. It's crazy that the best controller can also recover the ball better than anyone else. Best midfielder in the world for a reason.
Pedri won possession 17 times against Celta Vigo, the most by a player in a LaLiga game this season.Â
He's also the only player to win possession 15+ times in multiple LaLiga matches this term and the only player in the competition to win possession 200+ times (209). Â

A lot of upsides to a significant Fermin sale:
- can get back to playing a 4-3-3 without a #10
- Toni Fernandez, Dro can compete with Olmo for the #10 role anyway, Raphinha also a candidate for some games
- can go after and register a left-footed CB, which is a priority
