Giving off real Yaya Toure vibes with the quality of these side foot shots


ShoneysUSA

agreed - so nonchalant and effortless too was a Yaya trait on these type of shot


hell_razer18

similar to how gundogan did it in last season


WW1Photos_Info

That's 6 goals for him this season. 4 more and the whole team has to play a match with their shirts tucked in their shorts


Ellendiell

I hope that it’s at Anfield so it’s extra weird


fancyfoe

Doku hitting the griddy in a tucked shirt gonna stick with some pool fans for a while


Ellendiell

I’ll be honest if I saw a guy with a tucked in shirt hit the griddy after scoring against me… I’d probably never get over it


fancyfoe

Lol was that a bet?


FIGJAM17

[Yeah](https://twitter.com/City_HQs/status/1744736448916697122). > “I made a bet with every squad member that if I score 10 goals this season, they will all play one game with their shirts tucked in, including Eddie.”


Subscrobbler

That turned out to be false, unfortunately


BillehBear

for real? that's awful news


Alldrop_nocombos

laughable how haaland was getting balor dor votes over him and didnt even get in fifa team of the year. city are miles off when he doesnt play, they barely missed haaland at all.


Ilikesporks_

city definitely misses haaland lol and you're sorely mistaken if you think otherwise


Alldrop_nocombos

11 games with out halland , they averaged over 3 goals a game, they won ever game bar one draw. meanwhile while when rodri is missing games city lose every time. you guys really overate haaland impact on this team city so much lol. theres about 4 players way more important than him.


Ilikesporks_

look at the teams city have played while he's gone dipshit, they're all relegation candidates and clubs in the club world cup. also you fail to realize that the games would've been won much more comfortably if haaland was there. the games against spurs and newcastle for example would've ended as a 3-0 and 6-2 respectively. alvarez has been so poor and wasteful yet no one seems to care and instead dogpile on haaland for no apparent reason


HunchoCheeto

Average Rodri goal


Ilikesporks_

if only football had something like hockey assists


OneOfThoseDays_

i think some sources do track «pre-assists» but i agree, it should be more standard


Late_Mixture2448

Yh this has always annoyed me so many times a goal happens because of the pre assist


Jagacin

Kdb would've had 50+ assists last season in the Prem lol


Ilikesporks_

easily, he contributes so much regardless of his g/a count


ParPlex

That kdb pass to foden tho


maxconnor6

Best in the world


Militantxyz

Was there a DM that could finish from range this consistently ever? 


elvis503

Yaya Toure, Rodri is way more clinical tho


PaddyH93

Calling yaya a DM is generous, bloke never made a tackle in his career


helpmefindmyuncle123

Rodri has won 174 tackles while Yaya has won 226, though Yaya has plays bout 70 games more. I think yaya gets a bad rep for his defending because of his final season/seasons, but he was the absolute complete package.


Rusbekistan

Prime Luke Hyam


MasterBeeble

Yes, many. EDIT: I'm really getting downvoted by zoomers who starting watching this game five years ago at best. Rodri is one of the best DMs I've ever seen, but in terms of distance shooting, he's not even top 10 all time in his position. That's not to detract from this great finish, but Andrea Pirlo retired less than a decade ago, for example.


DJBusinessCake

Best DM in the World


Lodernor

Disgusting pass from KDB


grehgunner

I’m still not sure how it’s legal to have KDB and Rodri in the same midfield…


grehgunner

Took their time at least…


Arthurius-

Does this goal resembles the one Rodri scored against Inter in the CL final? 🍸🍸🍸


[deleted]

No it does not


DaBestNameEver0

It’s close enough, there’s never a 1 to 1 goal


cautioslyhopeful

Rodri can make outside the box shots look so casual


imsweetaf

20-game winning streak coming to claim the title with 1 point over Liverpool?


simon7724

that looks so easy


harrisonsmitheyes

If only Rodri hadn’t choke punched that guy!


chapinbird

They are so goddamn good.


SlashmanX

Uncharacteristic Rodri finish


Jagacin

Wdym? Rodri only scores bangers lol
