Is anyone else concerned about Rodri?
I'm not talking about his technical proficiency, eye for a pass, nor using his massive frame when he has to.
I was excited about his early few performances and his showing away at Burnley was a masterclass.
His positional sense is way off, seems to be getting caught the wrong side of the ball.
More alarmingly, there are now times where he doesn't even try to get back in. His lack of pace is further pronounced when he is out of position.
I don't see him as Fernandinho's long-term replacement, perhaps higher up?
Which means we still need to find a sitting midfielder.
Kudos to Gundo last night, he grew a pair once Modric tried to roll his ankle.
