We have vastly differing views on midfield qualities
I think you, like me, are thinking of center mid... not necessarily the attacking mid.. (maybe I'm wrong on your thoughts)...
and I think Matuidi is highly under rated... fantastic player!

Its so hard to compare Pastore and Kondogbia... two extreme ends of the MF spectrum...
That said, Kondogbia is more potential than what he's actually done on the pitch, so far... I think he's going to be really good though.. he's still raw IMO

Yeah, it seems comparing midfields often mixes up attacking mids with center/box to box and defensive mids a bit too much and the danger there is that Ljajic can become a better "midfielder" than Busquets in terms of "production".
I agree that Matuidi is extremely good and, along with Verratti, why I think pretty highly of PSG's midfield based on watching how they function together as a unit both attacking and defending against the bigger clubs in CL like Barcelona, Chelsea (when they were running rough shot over everyone last season) etc. . .
I also find deeper midfielders that do the "little things" which often don't make highlights like tackling / being in the right spot to break up play and finding the right angles to pass to the attacking mids in perfect positions for them to excel are my favorite players to watch. So there's some bias.
