Graeme Souness has named Leeds United forward Rodrigo in his Premier League Team of the Week. The Spaniard scored both of the Whites' goals in their 2-2 draw at Southampton.
Rodrigo has three Premier League goals in two matches this season, and only needs four more goals to beat last term's tally. He netted the equalising goal against Wolves in Leeds' opening day win at Elland Road, and followed that up with a brace at St Mary's.
The 31-year-old gave the Whites the lead just seconds after the half-time interval, meeting a whipped Jack Harrison cross at the near post, before doubling his side's lead on the hour mark when he was on hand to nod home Pascal Struijk's flick-on from a corner. Rodrigo headed the ball into the back of the net right on the goal line, but he was being played onside by Kyle Walker-Peters.

Leeds failed to hold onto their lead, with Southampton fighting back through goals from Joe Aribo and Walker-Peters, but Rodrigo still impressed enough to get in Souness' Team of the Week, alongside the likes of Kevin De Bruyne and Phil Foden.
Souness' talkSPORT Team of the Week in full: Nick Pope (Newcastle United); Reece James (Chelsea), Kalidou Koulibaly (Chelsea), Joao Cancelo (Manchester City); Phil Foden (Manchester City), Mathias Jensen (Brentford), John McGinn (Aston Villa), Kevin De Bruyne (Manchester City); Ivan Toney (Brentford), Gabriel Jesus (Arsenal), Rodrigo Moreno (Leeds United).
