A magnificent performance from him today, he was immense.

Put the poor performance at Spurs firmly behind him
 
Rodri’s so consistently top class that the odd bad performance is neither here nor there to me. He’s clearly the best player in his position in the world. Is it me or did he look yards faster today ? Not just in a player having a good game and being full of confidence and having a spring in his step kind of way but actually running much faster, certainly with the ball, than I’d ever seen him do before.
 
Absolute World beater for the first hour
Absolute Panel beater for the last half an hour when Villa got pace and legs on and made him turn
Akanji getting loads of stick for a misplaced pass but Rodri did an even worse one shortly after. And that after gifting Spurs three goals in two games
He badly needs a rest but unfortunately the lad we signed for that purpose is not up to it, physically or professionally

He could be rested for any of Forest, Bournemouth and Bristol C.

Phillips is a good player who’s just not got going yet.
 
Showed in the first half how good he could be in a more advanced, box to box role if we had another defensive midfielder behind him.

Unfortunately we’re unlikely to see that anytime soon as Guardiola clearly doesn’t trust Phillips, even when we’re three up.
