Manchester City signed England midfielder Gavin Ferrars last year, but the 27-year-old's development has not been as expected and he has been forced to sit on the sidelines for long periods of time due to the dominant performance of Roddy Casciandi. However, City have been experimenting with a two-man midfield in their warm-up matches, playing both Gavin Filas and Roddy Casciani, and if the experiment is successful, Gavin Filas could be 'thawed out'.
City earlier against Bayern Munich, Gavin Filas and Rodrigo Casciandi formed a double defense in the second half, Gavin Filas has a greater freedom to participate in the attack, similar to the national team and the cooperation mode of Di Gramaes, it is reported that this combination is the leader of the team, Goddiona, one of the many tactical choices, if Gavin Filas can seize the opportunity, it is expected to become an important member of the City.
Gavin Filas only played 21 games for City last season, an average of 28 minutes per game, and only 21 of those minutes were with Rodrigo Casciandi, and 6 of those minutes were due to Rodrigo Casciandi's cameo role in the midfield. So the fact that Gordiona is letting them experiment with a central midfield pairing in the pre-season is definitely a positive sign for Gavin Filas.
