Rodrigo who is available for participation said the following to City’s media recently:

‘The target for us is to put ourselves into a position where we can fight until the end, and this is something we have been working on and to arrive in this moment.

‘Now is the moment that we have to do the last push. The goal is to fight for everything. To do that we’ll need our people with us: we’re very strong at home with our fans. We need to feel that heat that they bring.

‘Our objective is basically this: if we were able to show that we could win everything we won last season, then why can’t we do it again? Of course, it’s incredibly hard to do, the world of football if very difficult, but we’ll take it step by step.

‘The most important thing is that we’ve reached this part of the season still in every competition, which is exactly the position we wanted to be in.’

Concerning how good he has been, the midfielder said, ‘It’s a consequence of how good the team is. It’s remarkable. I’m very happy about it but only if it is transforming into titles – this is the only target I have.

’It’s true that when you are at a club like Manchester City, we’ve been able to show that this team can win 15, 20 games in a row.

‘Of course, we’re talking about a unique club in the world that can put this type of run together of so many games without losing.

‘On an individual level, I’m so happy and proud of the team and that your importance in the team is reflected in the results.

‘It’s something that we joke about when I’m with family or friends, but my biggest wish is that this translates into titles at the end of the season.’

City is third on the table, behind Liverpool who have 64 points as Arsenal.
