    You must have been so pleased today as well with Daizen Maeda’s performance?

    Yes, he had a rest during the week, so he had lots of running on his legs. I thought we were really dynamic in the goals that we did score.

    Thinking of the first one, it was a great header. The second one was a brilliant goal getting through, because the pitch was a wee bit tricky today. It was a wee bit bumpy, so technically we played a really good technical game on it, and obviously Adam gets the goal, but Daizen, like you say, his running, his relentlessness in the game, he was deserving of his man in the match

    Missing last 2 games he was even more of a machine than usual. Didn’t think he could be.

    He is this team’s engine, I can’t really explain it but it’s more than just running and pressing - he has an aura and the example he sets can’t be replicated. He’s a unicorn. The fact his numbers are now right up there as well is incredible because that’s not his main attribute.

    He got a new deal yet?

    I'll be more devastated when he leaves than pretty much anyone else

    Been highly critical of him in the past, but I'll take lashings of custard to help that humble pie down. Guy has been sensational this season.

    Rodgers seems to have really simplified his game / helped him improve his decision making.

    Absolute superstar.

    All the talk of Jota has put Maeda's contribution in a bit of a shadow.

    ... One goal, two assists.

    POTY

    He can't not be allowed to ever leave.

    I'd lose all hope in life if he doesn't retire here.
