Missing out on a player turns people into philosophers so fast
The reaction to Rodri choosing Barça has been hilarious. One day he’s the perfect final piece, next day the debate becomes which club is a “higher level” and whether he’ll regret the move forever. This is probably my favourite part of transfer season: everyone rewrites the meaning of a player the second he picks someone else. Rodri can be an elite midfielder and still choose the project he prefers. Both things can be true.
