Rodri has returned, but Manchester City are still facing the problems they encountered when he got injured. With the Ballon d’Or winner and Kevin De Bruyne at their peak, Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City was unstoppable and won all.
De Bryune has left for Napoli, whilst Rodri is yet to hit top form since returning from injury.
The Citizens suffered their second defeat of the season when they visited the AMEX Stadium. Brighton won 2-1 to pile more pressure on Pep Guardiola and Manchester City.
After the 2-1 defeat, Rodri revealed that he is no Lionel Messi who will get injured and return, and his club will be winning easily.
“I’m not Messi. I’m not going to come back from injury and make the team win and win. Only Messi can do that…This is a collective; when we won in the past, I needed all my teammates,” Rodri said after the defeat at Brighton & Hove Albion.
Manchester City have won three points out possible nine. The pressure will return after the international break, where they will face Manchester United at the Etihad.
