Match Thread | Brentford vs. Manchester City (05/10/25)

We need him to play for results and building match fitness, but just seems like he’s been over leveraged too soon

How long you usually out with a hammy?

 

[Mancini’s Pastilles]

Unfortunate. A lot of players are never the same after ACL injury. Playing him v monaco was idiotic

 

[Rhapsody in Blue]

Nico, listen! Play with some composure now lad ok?

 

[Rodri’s ACL]

Need to break the bank in January for his replacement.

Replacement?

BBC saying Rodders has done his hamstring? Is that right?

He has.......

 

[CΛL]

Really have no idea why we’re playing him so much, that’s him out for weeks at least.

We need to start looking for his replacement now.

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

No international duty with Spain now, hopefully won't miss too many games.

BBC saying Rodders has done his hamstring? Is that right?

Looks like it

 

[AirbagsOptionalTheReturn]

Poor Rodders, think he will be in and out most of this season. Body has to adapt. Come on Nico

 

[super_city_si]

Need reijnders to sit a bit deeper now.

 

[Blue Maverick]

BBC saying Rodders has done his hamstring? Is that right?

Yep

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Only real positive is that it’s an international break next for Rodri.

 

[dubblue]

Back of knee or hamstring?

 

[malg]

Having rodri on the team is just monumental. He breaks lines with such simplicity

Bloody jinx.....

 

[Alexia_Ko]

I mean, him having pain and then starting vs Monaco was certainly a choice...

Knee pain has no correlation to him feeling his hamstring. You can literally see the moment it happened in this game. The touch got away from him and he stretched to retrieve it

 

[Beanhead]

Need to break the bank in January for his replacement.

He doesn’t need a replacement but we could do with another midfielder to help ease him back in.

 

[CΛL]

Replacement?

Doesn’t mean he has to replace him immediately but getting one in is vital

 

[King Jay]

How long you usually out with a hammy?

2 weeks to 3 months could be anywhere

 

[YatesA]

Let's hope it's a low grade tear and just a month or so

 

[PrezIke]

Hard to not wonder how the knee might be related to the risk as can be the case, but could be completely unrelated TFB.

Glad we have Nico who's been in good form and there's an International Break to lessen the blow.
