Guardiola plays it safe as star midfielder rests again
Rodri was left out of Manchester City’s 22-man squad for the Champions League match against Borussia Dortmund after feeling ‘not perfect,’ Pep Guardiola confirmed. The midfielder has now missed four of the last five games as he manages recovery from a hamstring problem picked up in October.
Guardiola insists patience is key—because rushing Rodri back too soon would be like trying to microwave a Sunday roast: technically possible, but nobody’s happy with the result.
