Haha thank you. I'm glad Sergio had one of the best debuts possible. People wouldn't have given him time otherwise!

im encouraged. he's been playing within himself and keeping it simple, which is all we should expect right now. looks comfortable on the ball and has an eye for a pass. his positioning will get better once he adjusts to our tactics and the other players.

Disgraceful amount of positivity. Not permitted.

I have a feeling he will immense and morph into a deep lying playmaker, spraying passes like Pirlo, whilst providing ample cover for the centre backs. A midfield trinity of Rodrigo, KDB and Bernardo will be something very special indeed. With Foden and a couple of others as back up the future looks incredible

He is super careless & clumsy.
He is no Fernandinho. You heard it here first.

Completely disagree. Besides giving the ball away twice, he have a very good game. He's going to be great for us.

Now gentlemen you being serious? I watched a re-run of the whole game yesterday and I thought he did well, made a mistake or two but so did Raheem, and he got 3 goals!
First real game. I would think that he will get better.

caught on the ball several times in the community shield and against west ham. bit concerning, b/c keeping possession was supposed to be one of his strengths. that said, he has otherwise looked good and he did keep his spot for atletico, so i expect he will come good for us. PL is just a different animal i guess.

He's getting caught because he's not getting as much time on the ball as he's used to in La Liga - a few more games and hopefully he will fully adapt.
I like what I see when he has the ball though and I believe he will come good for us and be a great signing.
After watching Chelsea though we dodged a bullet on Jorgino - he still doesn't look like he's adpated to the pace of the league after a full season!

I hope he is far better than that cunt. He only started playing when he realised he was on his way out.

He has, also worth noting though that Fernandinho was never a 6 until he signed for City.

I am being serious in stating that PP is not the first to think Rodri wont cut it here. I wasn't agreeing with him though. It think he will get better and I hope he succeeds....but I have my doubts about his ball-playing skills.
