I thought Unai made exactly the right call in taking Rogers off.  He was blowing out of his arse and clearly not giving us enough cover defensively.  He did a couple of good things going forward and will learn with Unai coaching him. He did ok overall.

That’s exactly the way I saw it. He looked more comfortable than in his cameo against Sheffield Utd but of course he’s been here over a month now rather than a few days. Bring him on as much as possible till the end of the season and then work hard with him in pre season.

When Rogers came on I had a thought he looks a like to Ramsey!
Hadn't seen that apparent likeness before!

A lot to learn. If we think he can be an instant replacement for JJ then think again

I think (and I stand correct) that was his 2nd Premier League appearance. He may have found the pace a bit quicker from Championship games which is understandable.

I didn’t think Rodgers did anything at all and those statistics haven’t altered my opinion.

From the radio coverage they called him out for not tracking back and getting behind the ball.  That sort of thing doesn’t appear in stats.  Regardless, promising numbers so plenty of potential especially as he gets more integrated into the Emery way. 

Am I right in thinking he usually plays in more attacking positions than the Ramsey role anyway so quite a big ask in your second PL game.

TBF, Ramsey hadn't been doing the tracking back as much either this season, hence the concerns over his performances, especially when we don't have the ball.

A game two halves excellent first anonymous second

Think we were under pressure more in the 2nd half and he was exposed a bit defensively.  Thought he did well in possession and did a lot of good things though.

Yes. Up front, all across the line & as a number 10 for Boro.

There is a lot more defending to be done in Emerys side.

I would hope that similar to the defenders, once he gets used to the way Emery wants him to play for the specific positions, he will be more up to speed & perform to a higher standard.

Although, Hes also meant to be backup for Watkins too, I think. (Although I may have misread that, as not 100% sure on that).

Well he did almost score 🙂

Those numbers are impressive but clearly work to be done on the defensive side. It was his first real minutes so will take abit of time.

His effectiveness in defending in the 2nd half was undoubtedly affected by his early booking.

The jump from Championship to PL is a big one. You can see that from Burnley who walked the league being battered almost every week and will be relegated. The same applies to players, and especially those thrown in at the top end of the table. Rodgers looked very good yesterday despite what’s been asked of him. It’s clear he’s a talented player with much more to come over the next few months and years.
