I'm actually toying with the idea of replacing him with another Manchester City midfielder. I switched Phil Foden in for Ilkay Gundogan for their 7-0 demolition of Leeds on Tuesday and it's hugely tempting to buy Gundogan straight back or get Bernardo Silva in before City's trip to Newcastle but Pep roulette is an even riskier game to play when our squads have been so stretched by all the postponements.
He's been part of a squad which got to the semi-finals at Euro 2016 and if Wales can qualify for the World Cup, he'll probably captain his country at a World Cup.

Norwich's best opportunity prior to Pukki's equaliser fell to Josh Sargent, whose far-post shot was blocked by former Canaries player Jamal Lewis.
Signed for £72m two summers ago, Nicolas Pepe remains the most expensive transfer in Arsenal’s history. At the time, the addition of the Ivorian was seen as a statement of intent, but he has struggled to find consistent form for the Gunners. Pepe has shown glimpses of his brilliance, particularly towards the end of last season, but if Arsenal could recoup some of the money they paid for the winger, they surely would.
Prior to his side's upcoming international friendly against Colombia, Tite said: Yes. It does (worry me not having Neymar playing games) and I hope that it is solved.
You have to stay calm, to stay patient. We got impact from the bench again finally, with Robbo and especially Diangana.
Liverpool, once again, lead the way for high turnovers this season and are notably more aggressive than City in the attacking and middle thirds and will look to disrupt the hosts' customary passing progression from deep.
Pukki has scored five of Norwich's eight Premier League goals so far this season and, yet again, he proved just how important he is to Norwich in their fight to avoid the drop.
The centre-back made an instant impact at City following his arrival at the Etihad Stadium in a £62 million ($79m) move from Benfica last September.
When we got it back to 2-1, I thought we could stay in the game, but for Aberdeen to get their third so quickly knocked the wind out of the boys' sails.

That claim has been refuted by Youm7, who claim that Mohamed has seen three previous exams completed by a replacement.
The lack of female representation in sport that Arnold grew up with is quickly changing, though, and she is a part of that.
Reading's survival was confirmed despite suffering a 3-0 loss at Hull, for whom Keane Lewis-Potter scored twice either side of an Alfie Jones effort.
“We played in a difficult group with many disciplines, with a plan, a strategy and it worked. My players gave their best and helped qualify for the second round of the Afcon.”
However, it was the visitors who finished the half strongly and should have returned for the interval in the lead.
The visitors would be celebrating again deep into six minutes of stoppage time as Jadon Sancho's superb cross teed up Bruno Fernandes to head home to make it 2-0 at half-time.
Things are up in the air for Leicester, who are top of Group C but could still also still finish bottom, while Celtic now know their Europa League campaign will end in the group stages after a Bayer Leverkusen comeback saw them beaten 3-2 in Germany.
Robert Page's side will play both matches at home, with Belarus visiting Cardiff City Stadium on Saturday before leaders Belgium visit the Welsh capital on Tuesday, 16 November.
