14 | Nico Gonzalez - 2025/26

You could always see he had the potential. I'm glad he is realizing it now. I hope he starts against liverpool this weekend, it will be a great test. We will be able to play Rodri further forward if needed as well if they play togethor.

As someone commented at the end of the match he's left everything on the pitch ,the lad looks exhausted at the final whistle.

Hopefully he gets some well deserved rest. He’s been putting some really good back to back performances

This is a nice highlights reel

Mad how he's not in the Spain squad but decent for us!

Rodri in the Nico role once he’s fit and Nico in the Bernardo/ Reinjders role would make us a fortress in big games imo

Vice versa for me as Rodri can strike a ball from anywhere

Has found his feet. Knows exactly what's expected of him and has the ability to deliver.

A big player for the next 8-10 years.

Are you sure because I'm sure there are several knowledgeable posters who knew he wasn't good enough and were forecasting him being dumped by Pep ?

Happens every year! Someone plays 5 games - 'Not good enough, don't know what our scouts are doing, or what Pep sees in him, he's shite!'

Happened with Bernardo, Mahrez, Rodri, etc, etc.

Some people will never learn.

Sure I understand that some of them are just impatient and far too hasty in their assessments, whilst others are smartarses trying to demonstrate their clearly unfounded " expert knowledge" status ", but it happens so regularly and is frustrating.

The joys of a forum I guess.

Not mobile enough

Good thing you don't have to be to be Rodri :)

I began reading from the beginning of the thread 20 minutes ago then gave up.
This must be a different player, or a mirror image of the original Rodri thread.

They never learn.

He’s awareness when receiving the ball and his progressive passing is a real improvement from him, I’m hoping he can show that and the composure in possession in the heat of a Liverpool clash today, will be a real test for him.
