Rodri

Perhaps the greatest defensive midfielder in the world, Rodri is the spiritual successor to Sergio Busquets, who Guardiola mentored whilst at Barcelona.

A fantastic passer with equally impressive defensive skills, Rodri is exactly the kind of player you want in front of your centre halves.


He’s currently locked in a battle with Manchester United’s Casemiro for the title of best defensive midfielder in the Premier League. Who do you think is the better player?
