Clearly AI as it shows us scoring against Cr*stal P*l*ce.

Jaw dropping by the way. Can’t believe he plays for us.

he (and a lot of the players) have come a long way since the shambles of August.

We have a nucleus of some wonderful players. But, paying top salaries is not going to be enough keep them at the club.

The biggest asset we have is Unai, and we have to win something with this group of players.

Yes you’re spot on but I’m not sure if winning something (a cup) is critical. Continuing to build and getting top four each season will lead success and trophies in the near future and encourage players like Rogers to stay.

Ridiculously talented:

As I've said many times, it's spooky how much it's like watching a Zidane highlight reel. The only big difference (in how they carry the ball) is that Zidane, as he got older, added tricks to his game to make up for his lack of pace, I'm not sure Rogers needs that so I'd just concentrate on cutting out the odd careless pass or distracted first touch that he sometimes lets slip in. He's already a top international player, if he can tidy things up to add that extra bit of consistency he can be whatever he wants to be.

Said it before, but it’s the easy bits that he needs to ‘tidy up’ (good choice of word there Paul).  He makes the hard things look effortless.

Brilliant, long interview with him on Sky/Youtube.

2 standout comments from him.

Unai is a genius
XG is nonsense (he was too polite to say bollocks).

He’s such an erudite young man. You can see why he’s doing so well. Not just his outstanding ability. He just gets it. Brilliant attitude, understands his place in the game, the journey he has been on and direction he is headed if stays true to his values. Appreciates what he has learned and those who have helped him. He lights up talking about playing for us and for Emery.

At the risk of blaspheming, I think there's a chance he could go on to become our greatest ever player.
