#16 | Rodri - 2020/21 Performances

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

Wasn't meant that way

Thought he was brilliant today, not only that but I thought the second half had the feel of the second half of the semi in the fa cup 2011 vs united - a real tussle for power, and rodri was one we seemed able to rely on the most. Loved the bit when he put Mane on his arse when shielding the ball about 65 minutes in, he swept up everything brilliantly. Chuffed to bits

Fair enough mate, I did raise an eyebrow as it certainly isn’t like you...

Also, it isn’t a points scoring game, I just think he is looking more and more capable and that surely comes with experience and coaching... he alongside Bernie were exceptional in the middle today!

Veyy good today. By far his best game for us that isn't Burnley. Peps changed what he's asking him to do, it's covering his weaknesses well and the team and he himself look much much better for it.

Your veiled compliments do not reflect the truth, in my view.

Rodri was excellent yet again. Its a race between him and Stones for most improved player.

FFS! When are we going to be done with this?

Absolutely brilliant. First one to admit I had my doubts with him in our system but gladly having to eat my words. Top class today.

Previously he struggled a smidge because of his size I felt. He's a big lad, so when our press gets bypassed he doesn't have too much agility to recover. There were signs though that when we pressed well he was something of a man mountain. There was a lot of other stuff he did well too (but that's a separate point to this).

Lately he's become a human battering ram. He hasn't changed much, but we're far more cohesive as a team, and he's less exposed. It's good to see him do so well defensively. It's vindicating too for the 8 of us that knew he was good all along.

rodri has never really been that bad tbh stones is a complete turn around so its not close for me. Rodri took the season to settle like most of peps signing do. Rodri turnaround if there is one is more comparable with cancelo than stones imo.
