00:00Opens next week. There's plenty of Manchester City players that perhaps will be expected to be in the shortlist, but of all outstanding players perhaps
00:10Rodri and I know you love your midfielders perhaps just a word on why he is
00:16Expected to be in the top three maybe if not win it
00:19I would love to one player win this award for the players means a lot
00:23So I would love it
00:25So, but I think I said many times just being in contention of being there means that the club and
00:31Individually collectively have done a good season. So but there are a lot a lot of good teams with a good place as well
00:37so hopefully it's happened, but
00:39It's not in my hands
00:41We know the strikers often win but given Rodri's run of unbeaten games how important he was to Manchester City
00:47Is it maybe time now that a midfielder wins it this time around?
00:53It would be the light he deserve it, but I guess maybe another one deserve it too. So the people vote
00:59So Rodri had made not just season many many seasons and the previous season
01:03of course was really really good with the Premier League and especially
01:07in the Euros winning with
01:09With Spain, but there are players also they did a good season
