I came to the same conclusion. At the same time, he is a defensive midfielder, and he does have a tendency to kind of fade into the background, even when he's silently keeping the team afloat.

It wouldn't surprise me if a lot of his performances are deemed to be closer to mediocre or unexceptional by certain rating systems.

So much for "only 2 people" knowing the winner.

Congrats to Rodri

Wouldn't be the first robbery but we need to use this to fuel another charge at Uefa's trophy

Can't way to see Foden win the award next season

farfan wrote:I’m not sure most PL or even City fans would share this opinion. After all, neither the media nor the fans voted him as their Player of the Season and the advanced stats don't reflect this supposed individual dominance.

The people backing his case are the same hipsters who fancy themselves as the smartest guys in the room, believing they aren’t swayed by stats and that they understand football on a much deeper level. They're the same ones who would have handed the award to eight deep-lying midfielders and four defenders over the past 20 years if they had their way. They're the same people who tried to convince us that Jorginho was the best player in the world, the same ones who tried to argue (in vain) that Pirlo was more important than Kaká in Milan's 2007 CL campaign, and the same ones who wanted to give three of Messi's Ballon d'Ors to Xavi and Iniesta. They were due for a win I guess Laughing

We'll see how City copes with his season-ending injury. Teams don't usually cruise to the title after losing their "best" player early in the season :whistle:

Well I've already said all these awards are PR driven. Foden winning it isn't a surprise because he's English naturally the media will support that.

What about stats? Rodri won 5 titles compared to Vini 2 last season, scored/assist 25 goals for club and country as a DM, City had 72 game unbeaten record with Rodri playing the only losses they even suffered in those 72 games were 2 PK losses (Aresnal and Madrid), Rodri played 50 games compared to Vini 39, Rodri started 46 games compared to Vini 32. Even stats support Rodri. Vini isn't this worthy winner for a season award for 2 months worth of performance that you guys want to claim. Its not surprising the people who think this is a robbery is largely Madrid fans.

If this was Yamal VS Rodri, you're tune 100% would be different.

If we win the CL Yamal or Lewa will be contenders and they will probably give it to Lewa even if Yamal was better because of robbing him in 2020. These awards are all PR based, Rodri PR won over Vini and Bellingham PR, its better to move on from them. This will never change.

"Man City have won 74.1 per cent of their Premier League games with Rodri in the side and 61.9 per cent without him, translating to 2.37 points per game with the Spaniard and 1.90 per game without." Since Rodri injury City have largely struggled and have been lucky they barely beat 2 regulation teams who have 0 wins in the PL so far. If they adjust this will be done by the man you hate, Pep. If there is one man to figure out a solution it'll be him. I'm mean Madrid won La Liga without Vini, who started 22 games out of 38, so bascially you're saying he deserve the Ballon dor based off of 5-6 games in the CL.

Did Vini only win 2 trophies now Laughing I keep hearing new things. Tell me more

There isn't a single player past or present that have said that Rodri deserves balon d'or (that are not biased).

Like farfan said only hipsters think this was even a contest

Wouldnt take his opinion seriously. He also thought Messi deserved it last season. Henry would kiss anything related to Pep. Could hardly call him unbiased with opinions like that

Wanted go say Uefa supercup but then realised it was just until 31 July.

Let's put it this way Vini won all bar 1 trophy for him club. Rodri won only 2 out of 7 and had an incredibly bad record against pretty much all big teams. Moreover, they came up against us in the CL and shipped in 4 goals over 2 legs where his defensive stats were worse than Camavinga's

But then again you went all quite when Vini condemn the racists. Vini should really invest in a PR department that can put out statements everytime something happens like he is the freaking prime minister

I think Vini deserved it, since I prefer decisive attacking players to win, but let’s not do revisionism and act like Rodri isn’t clearly the best player in his position.

This isn’t a Jorginho thing. Maybe if Carvajal won yes. Rodri is the most influential CDM since Pirlo and he doesn’t have runners holding his hand defensively. The amount of creative responsibility he takes is unreal. 12G and 14A from a CDM who is not on set pieces. He scores clutch goals all the time too. City look like a 10x better team with him.

I imagine the reason Vinicius didn’t win is because he, Jude, and Carvajal ended up splitting each others votes. Recency bias kicks in a bit considering voting is right after international tournaments. Him being unlikeable didn’t help him either.

Although seeing the Madrid media/fan/club meltdown has been hilarious. I’ve never seen a more entitled group in my life. Clown show. Now they’re saying the award lost credibility and they won’t attend. It reminds me when they said the Madrid door doesn’t knock twice when Mbappe rejected them in 2022, then they opened their legs for him like a stripper this summer.

Rest assured the award will gain back its credibility when a Madrid player wins next time.

I brought up stats for the best player in the EPL question. You made it sound like there is some type of consensus among EPL fans that Rodri is the best player, which implies he's head and shoulders above the rest. I simply reiterated that neither fans (including City's), the media, nor the individual stats agree with this assessment.

The bias argument can be made against you as well. Hell most Barça fans aren't even bothering making the case for Rodri, they're just celebrating a Madrid player that they hate not winning it Laughing

I think I've been pretty consistent regarding these sort of players that hipsters try to shove down our throats every few years or so. I was on this very site arguing against Jorginho's BO campaign three years ago and I bet you were as well. But now that the choice is between a Pep player and a Madrid player....
