I wonder if we will ever see the real Rodri again?
Even this 50percent rodri makes us way better than the alternative at the moment.I wonder if we will ever see the real Rodri again?

So, how did we do yesterday without him? We must have shipped a hateful of goals for you to say that. I thought we kept a clean sheet so didn't do to bad.Even this 50percent rodri makes us way better than the alternative at the moment.

Don't agree Gonzales is matching this version of rodders at the moment.Even this 50percent rodri makes us way better than the alternative at the moment.

He needs minutes to build resistance back up in his muscles. Judging how many mins combined with the right amount of rest is not an exact science. Everyone is different so harsh to call out the medical team.

When I watched the game this morning, watching Rodri. He just makes playing that role look an absolute piece of piss.
I like Nico Gonzalez and think he will get there but looks absolutely fooked doing the same job.

We are not selling to themI wonder if we will ever see the real Rodri again?
He looks like he’s capable of playing an hour a week at the moment. Not two games in a week, not three games in a row. Just an hour a week for a bit.
We’ve put too much on him recently. Playing him against United then Napoli then Arsenal in eight days made him look like he’s taken a step backwards rather than forwards. He then had a week off due to feeling pain after that run of games and we again played him consecutively against Monaco and Brentford, five days apart, and he feels his hamstring going.
We are doing this wrong! It’s amazing that he’s playing at all yet, never mind putting runs of consecutive games on him. He needs proper recovery between performances.

Rodri was subbed off on the 22nd minute and we dominated the entire 1st half at Brentford. That was the best 45 minutes of football I have seen from City. The 2nd half was not so good. But we were the 1st team to beat Brentford on their own ground this season (Chelsea, Man Utd and Villa all failed).Fell apart in possession once he went off, keep him on the pitch and we have a chance.
Hopefully the injury isn't too serious.

Doku and Bobb are doing well enough. Bobb has only just come back into City's side. He's missed more football than Rodri.would like to see him play 45 mins a game for next few games as we will need him next year more . Nico g doing well but our wingers need to step up if they can .
Bobb is not a winger and Savniho isnt any better. Definetly need a winger next summer, Doku seems to have improved ,but still could do a lot better.Doku and Bobb are doing well enough. Bobb has only just come back into City's side. He's missed more football than Rodri.

First 45mins were great but the first 20 were even better.
Not debating that it was a great result but we're a lot more controlled with him out there.
