Open Extended ReactionsORLANDO, Fla. -- Manchester City midfielder Rodri has said it could be "months" before he finds his best form after nine months out with a knee injury. Pep Guardiola hinted that the 29-year-old could make his first start in the Group G decider against Juventus on Thursday. But ahead of the game, Rodri has insisted it could be a while before he reaches the level which saw him win the Ballon d'Or. "I know it's still going to be months until I reach my level, but I'm so happy." No one managed to fill the hole left by Rodri, but he insists it's too easy to put City's bad season down to his injury.
