'And maybe doing other things that I am not used to, such as coming here, spending more time with his family and why not try to improve other parts of his body, work on that and return stronger.
Rodri was included in the team of the Club for the knockout phase of the Champions League after his team hinted that this campaign could return to action despite the initial expectation that he would be out throughout the season.
The reigning champions of the Premier League will face Real Madrid on Tuesday at the Etihad stadium, but it is unlikely that the 28 -year -old appears in the field.
When he wondered how he feels to see the games on the sidelines, the defensive midfielder added: 'No, I do not deal with that. You are more nervous, you can't control what is happening.
'But yes, I try to support my team from outside, give them my vision and help them.
Without Rodri, Guardiola's men fell fifth in the Premier League table with 41 points, behind Liverpool, Arsenal, Nottingham Forest and Chelsea, while many fans and experts believe that their absence significantly impacted the bad City campaign to date.
Taking into account their serious injury, citizens signed the former player of the Academy of Barcelona, Nico González, from Porto for a rate of £ 50.2 million.

Citizens included three of their January signings in the Champions League band, González, Abdukodir Khusanov and Omar Marmoush, while there was no place for the Brazilian Vitor Reis, 19, who joined in January from Palmeiras for £ 29.4 million.
Meanwhile, Madrid also remains with a team affected by injuries, without David Alaba, Dani Carvajal, Eder Militao and Antonio Rudiger.
It was confirmed that the German International left for approximately 20 days last week.
The Madrid manager, Carlo Ancelotti, will probably have to trust a matching of the 21 -year -old academy Raúl Asencio and the defensive midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni to keep the city attack line at bay.
