I've wanted to have this conversation for days!!!!! Thank you for this ask!!

You're right. You can't bench the best player of the Euro and such a young and talented player. And we all know he didn't come here to rest.

But how can you bench the best player of last season (alongside Mbappé) ? The club told him they trusted him, they loved him and they extended his contract 3 months ago!!! How can you bench a player who is this important and reliable ? He rarely (to avoid saying never) failed us. You looked at his season, even the past ones with us, his statistics, his abilities and it's not fair to bench him. You can't say that he's not good enough for this team.

He also has such a big influence in the dressing room and we all know how much he hated this double goalkeeper situation when he was in Madrid, I'm honestly a bit worried of his reaction if we choose to play Donnarumma over him.

Don't get me wrong, I love that we got Donnarumma. But the situation is scary. How can you look at a leader like Navas, who doesn't mess up and tell him that even though he's one of the best in the world and in this team he has to sit on the bench because someone younger is here. It's like... is Donnarumma even better than him ? I'm not sure. It's a really difficult decision to take.
