Rodri: Manchester City midfielder says he needs a rest
Manchester City midfielder Rodri says he is planning to take a break during the season run-in as the club chase a second successive Treble.
The 27-year-old made his 41st appearance of the campaign in Tuesday's Champions League quarter-final first-leg draw against Real Madrid.
That was the third of eight games across three competitions the club will play in April.
"I do need a rest," said the Spain international.
"Let's see how we speak, how we live the situation. Sometimes it is what it is.
"I need to adjust. It [rest] is something we are planning, yes."
The thrilling 3-3 draw at the Santiago Bernabeu made it 429 days and 66 games since Rodri lost a game playing for City in any competition.
The former Atletico Madrid midfielder has played 3,497 minutes this season - the 23rd most of any player from Europe's top leagues in England, Spain, Germany, Italy and France.
But only three players have made more starts and two of those are goalkeepers.
Rodri has missed four domestic games through suspension this season, with City losing all four.
Pep Guardiola's side face Luton in the Premier League on Saturday before the return leg with Real Madrid on 17 April.
They then face Chelsea in an FA Cup semi-final and have Premier League trips to Brighton and Nottingham Forest before the end of the month.
I don't see any gaps where they could rest him apart from the odd game. If they rested him for two matches after the FA Cup semi he'd miss Brighton and Forest away to get two weeks off.
KDB is one of those people that can never look stylish. From head to toe he's a disaster
The whole thing is really strange, do other clubs do it? They've even got the same footwear, would it extend to underwear too?
That's a terrible look. What are the benefits though? The brand on the jacket supplies the jackets and what, gives them some money, which has come from the sheikh anyway?
