Rodri praises Chelsea after 4-4 draw at Stamford Bridge
Manchester City midfielder Rodri has heaped praise on Chelsea following the 4-4 Premier League draw at Stamford Bridge.
The Cityzens played out an entertaining stalemate against the Blues on the road. They took the lead on three separate occasions, but were pegged back each time.
It was a deserved point for the Blues with their performance and speaking after the game, Rodri said that the level of the west London club has risen this term.
He said: "The team Chelsea has built, they have great players and they sign massive players."
"The level of the Chelsea team has risen and it was not our best performance today.
"Individually we needed to do a bit more ourselves - to concede four goals is not normal for us."
With the result, Manchester City remain top of the table, but are only one point behind Liverpool and Arsenal, who are second and third.
The Cityzens host Liverpool at the Etihad Stadium after the international break while Arsenal will be away to London rivals Brentford.
