Rodri is the best dm in the world, irrespective of the drop off in quality, I think it may be difficult to find a player who is prepared to have little game time.

Think it was the same with Busquets at Barcelona,he never really had any back up either and ended up with over 700 appearances.
I can’t remember but I’m sure Barcelona tried all sorts to rest him too but never really found a solution.
It’s such a specialised position especially in a Pep team, similar to goalkeeper where being the number 2 is a thankless task.

I go along with the theory that 'The Barnsley Beckenbauer ' could be well up to the job. He knows Pep and Pep knows him well enough. If it hadn't been for his injury start to the season his versatility would have given him the role. Would have been the best option for an emergency.
 
Has just issued what I think we can call a "come and get me plea" on national tellu.

Was asked about getting minutes ahead of the Euros and he said, "Yeah, obviously I want more minutes. We'll see what happens", so that's him inching for a move in January.

Fare thee well, Kalvin!
 
That interviewer was causing trouble then saying knocking on Pep’s door after that performance. He was lucky he didn’t get sent off. Blaming poor tackles on lack of game time? He does training doesn’t he?

I agree I reckon he”ll go in January
 
knowing Pep his minutes will come FA cup 3rd round something like Shrewsbury Town-Man City game early January.

He’s not the sharpest tool in the box. He had plenty of opportunity to fuck off in the summer, we couldn’t have made it any more obvious he wasn’t wanted yet he chose to stay, so now to whinge about minutes is a little bizarre.
