The Premier League Player of the Season nominations have been announced, with Manchester City’s Phil Foden and Erling Haaland among the contenders. Foden has had a sensational season, scoring 24 goals and providing 11 assists, while Haaland has scored 25 goals in the league. Despite their impressive performances, City midfielder Rodri, who has scored eight goals and provided 14 assists this season, was not included in the shortlist, sparking outrage among fans.
Rodri’s absence from the Player of the Season shortlist has been met with criticism, as he has played a crucial role in City’s success this season. He has excelled as a defensive midfielder, while also contributing offensively with his goals and assists. Despite his impressive performances, Rodri has once again been overlooked for recognition, similar to his fifth-place finish in the 2023 Ballon d’Or rankings.
Many believe that Rodri’s consistent performances and impact on games deserve more recognition, especially considering his importance to City’s success. His ability to control and dictate games through possession, as well as provide protection for the defense, has been crucial for City this season. As a result, his exclusion from the Player of the Season shortlist has been viewed as a disservice to his contributions to the team.
