The ‘so what’ is that despite all the recent hits in the market, City let a DM who could’ve given 15 years service go in return for a player that Pep has no trust in and would happily let leave this summer.
The result being Rodri having to play every minute and having to stay on at the weekend when he was gasping for breath on 75 minutes….
Chelsea will now get a top class DM for the next 15 years and Txiki will have to go back into the market and drop a decent wedge to find someone who can take the weight off Rodri.
The club doesn’t miss that often, but in this case it’s dropped an unbelievable clanger.
