Roberto Martinez has raved about Leeds United forward Rodrigo on Amazon Prime Video (8:02pm, October 20, 2022), and has said that the Spain international will get even better at Elland Road.

The Belgium manager has been impressed by how Rodrigo has done for Leeds so far in his career.

The former Everton boss believes that the 31-year-old Spain international will get even better.

Important player

In our view, Rodrigo is a very good attacking player who has done well for Leeds.

The 31-year-old can operate as a striker, winger or attacking midfielder.

Rodrigo has filled in for Patrick Bamford as a number 9 when the England international has been injured and unavailable.

The former Valencia star has scored 18 goals and created 14 big chances in 83 appearances in the Premier League so far in his career.

Rodrigo has made eight starts and one substitute appearance in the Premier League for Leeds so far this season.

The attacker has scored four goals and given one assist in those games.

In our view, for Leeds to be successful this season, Rodrigo will have to be on top of his game and score as well as create chances for the Whites.
