16 | Rodri - 2022/23 Performances

[Gundogan's Moustache]

He wasn’t taking a point today.

Continuously driving us forward In that second half

 

[Peaceful Terrier]

Absolute Rolls-Royce of a player, I could watch him play football all day.

 

[SamTheGuru]

At what point does the conversation advance to where he ranks in the list of all-time great holding midfielders? Because at some point we are going to have to discuss this. He’s still relatively young, so maybe in a few years? The guy puts in 8/10 practically every week as a baseline, with smatterings of 9’s and 10’s thrown in there. Every week.

I don't like the way you are quantifying but I agree with what you are saying.

Will never get any recognition whilst he plays for us.

 

[Withnail]

Delivers every week, we would be lost without him.

 

[Stoned Rose]

Imperious.

He’ll win @Stoned Rose round one day I’m sure…

I gave him his dues in the MOTM thread mate.

He was mustard today.

 

[Manchester_lalala]

I’m pretty sure he’s going to score a yaya like goal soon enough. He’s not as fast as yaya was, but he’s got that train like power which is hard to stop when he gets moving.

Couple of times first half he got the ball and had 2 or 3 palace players closing on him, he shimmied one way and then just broke through and ran forward in to space Leaving them trailing. So intelligent With his body positioning when he receives the ball.

He’s the best in Europe by some distance, has been for 18 months in his position… just wish he’d back himself in the final 3rd more as if he can add 10 or so to his repertoire he’s approaching long lasting status within the game…

What a player though, he’s undoubtedly studied Dinho, positionally, and elevating it, which is madness!!
