Under Fonseka, he did great as a an attacking Mid. His numbers were great in 2020-2021 season. This year under Mou, he played DM mostly and still contributed 5 goals and 6 assists. I mean, if Perisic would have played DM position, would he get his numbers? I'm not comparing them really, just saying that age wise they are the same, with Miki half the money. At least here, Miki does not have to play DM so his rotational stints would be more of offensive midfield positions.
