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

He is no Fernandinho. You heard it here first.
Hardly first.
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.

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.

Can't help him having Gundo next to him though. They shouldn't be on the pitch at the same time.

We've been really spoiled by Yaya and Fern.

ok ok , we get it you have a grudge against the guy. You sure do miss a lot of the good tackles and ball winning he does do though.
He certainly wasn't the problem in midfield today .
Mahrez should not be starting a game ahead of Bernie and David Silva , is unfortunately beginning to show his age. Young phil would have been better today, if only because he is a cheeky player , not afraid of taking players on around the box, much more so than Mahrez or Merlin( these days).

I don't have a grudge against him, I just don't think he is good enough. Same as Rodwell, Javi Garcia or Fernardo.

Rodri was our best midfielder by far today
Zero support from Gundo who was none existent for large parts of the game and defensively useless and as alway slow. Counter teams ALWAYS stroll past him like he’s not there
Merlin, has never been great defensively and his legs these days he’ll never be great helping defensively
Mahrez has been poor the past couple of games too
Rodri showed up everywhere and yes did get caught. But Wolves targeted him because he had no bloody support
I blame Pep today. Very poor team selection

Thought Mahrez was outstanding against Everton
