My phone does not understand me.

decent Ninja edit, I must say

Rodri : You don't notice him when he's in the game as he just blends in and makes everything tick, but you REALLY notice him when he's not out there. This is the best compliment that I can give him.

The new Gaz Baz I've said so myself.

It's possible Fern could be more effective defensively later in the season, when the going gets tough. I'm particularly thinking re getting across covering Zinchenko, who still looks like he has never played fullback before. But both Rodri & Fernandinho could play several positions imo, in the same team if required. Either could drop in & out of a back 3 but equally, either could get forward.

I still think you are overly harsh about Gundo and Diddy De Bruyne.

Interestingly we saw a late season change at DM in at least two of our title winning seasons.

I'm sure Rodri can play other positions but he just looks like a key building block (at DM) for years to come. Might be a bit early to worry about it but I hope we can fend off Barca or Real when the time comes.

There's some obvious similarities but strikes me that Rodri is a better player, and I rated GB highly.

The midfield was night and day when he came on, all of a SUDDEN Bournemouth wasn't going through it. He's such an imposing figure there

 

[Neville Kneville]

There's some obvious similarities but strikes me that Rodri is a better player, and I rated GB highly.

Better footballer than Barry, by a distance, learning to be as good at predicting where the ball will go but GB was the best I've ever seen at that.

I think Rodri will nail it though.

Has Rodri got a rocket shot on him like Fernandinho?

 

[City_Sean]

He's fucking brilliant. His positional awareness, the way he anticipates danger, and his use of the ball is top class.

I think he'll become a club legend

It’s more of a cannon, just ask Lloris’ pedicurist.

I'll always remember him for that Richard Dunn-esque own goal against Southampton. Cool, calm and clinically slotted into the corner of our own net. Any striker would have been proud of it.
