In the City game, we know Foden scored a hat trick and has a great performance, but let's take a look at Rodri. What a player he is. He has been Man City's most consistent player this season. He does everything a a midfielder does. He's a backbone to that team.
Today he was giving defense breaking passes and winning the balls, controlling the game. I doubt City would have dominated or even won if he was not on the pitch. He's growing up to be among the best defensive midfielders the world has ever seen.
I rate Busquest ahead of him in the DM/single pivot role but there are qualities that he has that Busquest lacked. Busquest was a more intelligent player all round but Rodri is something else.
At this point is going to be very difficult for City to win the league, but City being City will keep fighting. They're going to need both Arsenal and Liverpool to slip up at least twice before they can win the league. This doesn't look like a scenario that can happen but let's see how things unfolds. I doubt that either Arsenal or Liverpool will slip up, tha means Liverpool will win the league. You never can tell though, it's football.
