It's Quiet 18 - Wanna ring the bell?

Rodri complained about burnout & the risk to his health. Even with a top class player to challenge & rotate with him, Rodders would still be playing 40+ matches per season, not including internationals.
I’m well aware of what he said mate. And if he’s paying 40 plus matches then his back up plays less than 20. Which top class replacement will be happy with that?

Not really. Rodri's back up could play 70 minutes in one match & Rodders 20+ minutes & vice versa. Both will obviously complete 90 minutes in other matches & offer cover to each other in terms of injuries & suspensions too.

There's also the scenario that we could play a double pivot in tough away matches. That's how I arrived at both Rodri & another CDM playing 40+ matches per season for City, not including Internationals. It's essentially what Rodri was calling for.
