City’s midfield metronome hits pause again
Manchester City suffered another blow as Rodri left the pitch early at Brentford with a possible hamstring issue. The midfielder, recently back from an ACL injury, was replaced by Nico Gonzalez after just 20 minutes.
Pep Guardiola stayed calm over his recovery, saying the best Rodri will return soon — just not as fast as one of Haaland’s sprints.
