8 | Mateo Kovacic - 2023/24

Rodri must love having Kovacic alongside him.

 

[city warrior]

What I love the most is his dribbling has a purpose. He gains yards, open space and then attack the space, creating chances.

It's not about dribbling 2 or 3 and you are still at the same place, but with the other team better organized defensively.

 

[MCFCFanTX]

His ability to dribble and ride challenges in the midfield is so good. Once he gets more acclimated to the system and his teammates, the results will be incredible.

 

[oldius]

He and Rodri were utterly immense tonight.

 

[Brad mcfc]

Classy player, what a bargain he was.

Immense.

 

[madloaf]

The guy looks top top class.

 

[Deleted member 81382]

Really impressed with how seamlessly he has managed to fit in to the team.

He's always aware of what's around him and never panics even when surrounded by 3 or 4 players.

Knows exactly when to carry the ball forward or just keep it simple.

Class.

 

[JWCH-99]

Are kovacic and rodri long lost brothers? Best double pivot we’ve had yet in terms of ball retention

 

[Dax777]

I had no doubts
He is straight butter, no cheese.

 

[WallyA]

Unstoppable in control.

Line breaking passes.

Perfect Rodri pairing.
