Still need an equivalent. If Anderson does help us start dominating both our Domestic and European rivals midfield then fair enough he is worth the transfer fee.Rodri was the best midfielder in the world. If we're only buying a player based on whether they're as good as prime Rodri then we wont buy anyone.
There is nothing to suggest Rodri doesn't still want to play for us. Put the Real Madrid propganda to one side for a while.If he's fit and we can get him on the pitch and let's be honest IF he still wants to play for us.

Well he is and he will 100%Still need an equivalent. If Anderson does help us start dominating both our Domestic and European rivals midfield then fair enough he is worth the transfer fee.
NoReijnders look likely to leave, we gonna have 6 midfield option include Elliot. Rodri, Nico G, Elliot, Kovacic, Cherki, Foden. Would this be enough ?

Rodri's tactically better for starters. Rodri's scored a Champions League winning goal and helped Spain win the last Euro's (before injury robbed him almost two season's)
Not when he first joined though!!!!
Wouldn't be surprised if Gonzalez and Kovacic also moved on this summer. We could be in for a complete midfield overhaul. One that's probably been needed since the treble season.Reijnders look likely to leave, we gonna have 6 midfield option include Elliot. Rodri, Nico G, Elliot, Kovacic, Cherki, Foden.

There were still signs of that in his first season. Injuries didn't help with the settling process.Not when he first joined though!!!!
Back to Anderson, I'll be very surprised (and disappointed) if the deal doesn't get done. The fee might be excessive, but I think we should just pay it to get our top target, rather than making a stand and ending up with a lesser player as we've done in the past.
Think Nico G might stay, Kova yes goodbye dont mind. We were link with Hjulmand before, what happen ? Would be great as a backup, some our fans want Maza but we are loaded with attacking mid unless Cherki converted to RW.Wouldn't be surprised if Gonzalez and Kovacic also moved on this summer.

There is loads of noise apart from Real Madrid in the media, added to that Rodri stated you can't turn down offers from certain clubs and if that's true he goes in the summer while we can get money for him.
Speculation is part of football, opinions aren't formed by propaganda they are just that, opinions.

Peak Ballon Dor Rodri. Yes.Rodri's tactically better for starters. Rodri's scored a Champions League winning goal and helped Spain win the last Euro's (before injury robbed him almost two season's)
Rodri when we first signed him. No.
Still was much better than Anderson.

Don’t think wanting to play is any issue, if he here its because he wants to be.If he's fit and we can get him on the pitch and let's be honest IF he still wants to play for us.
My guess is his decision is between seeing out his contract or extending.

To him it's a business decision we have to remember that in all probability some fans think that it's still the 70's and kissing the badge and showing huge amounts of loyalty was a thing, commodities move on now the highest bidder in mostly king.
