My Take
Rodrygo is the player I point to when people confuse flash with value. At Real Madrid, surrounded by louder stars, he keeps doing the unglamorous things — pressing, drifting to either flank, accepting a supporting role — and then decides the biggest Champions League nights as if it were routine. That habit of scoring when stakes are highest suggests a rare temperament; you cannot coach that calm. Coming out of Santos, the pipeline that produced Pelé and Neymar, he carries the weight of that lineage lightly. I suspect history will rate him higher than today's headlines do, and I am happy to be early on that call.
