Said it before. Say it again. He's played in one of the worst eras the club has experienced both on and off the pitch. He's stayed clear of injuries throughout his tenure. Is far and away our most consistent and allround talented footballer...

Massive improvement since he came to Liverpool. However misses far too many clear cut chances. He actually creates more chances for others. If they can sort out his finishing he'll be pretty good.

Paddy Crerand?

Looking at the impact Rodri has on city it's dlfficult to find anyone from the past who has had such an influence on their teams. There's certainly nobody currently playing that can beat him. Gerrard, Toure, Souness, maybe.

I'd take the "young" holy trinity (Mainoo; Höjlund; Garnacho) to one side. Load up clips on widescreen of Robson; Van Nistelroy and Best and tell them thats where the bar is.

Yes they paid a lot for him but without him Chelsea would have been relegation canditates. A top player who gives his all for his club. The fact he had a dig at Mount shows he has a bit of a mean streak in him. Nothing wrong with that!

As I said after the Brentford performance, he doesn't impact games and with the quality he has he should be doing that. Call it constuctive criticism!

Thought he did well when he came on. Looked sharp and did some nice touches. I reckon he'll kick on now and show us the player he was a couple of seasons ago.

Stick prime Rooney in a midfield position and you could get the equivalent to Rodri. Nobody anywhere near him in the prem!

Thought he would be 30-ish but he's 27 approaching 28. Ya Ya Toure was a beast for them. Rodri has surpassed him!

Rashford without doubt and I think it should happen.

Our problem is we are too easy to beat. Simple as that! Any team in the prem can have a go at us!

He spends a hell of a lot of time fending off his marker. You rarely see him with space on his own where he can show us other sides to his game. If he does get free in the box he's got a good finish but to say he's good all round is stretching it...

Haaland isn't specially technical? A striker who has also technical ability as Isak has are worth their weight in gold. Zlatan, Cantona you name it.

As much as I like Höjlund I think he's quite limited tbf. Isak is the RR version. In other words far more talented and I'm surprised our recruiting staff couldn't see that at the time.
