20 | Bernardo Silva - 2024/25

[WallyA]

So glad he stayed.

I hope he can have a Gundogan like season to reward his hard running.

He can get goals and assists in the centre.

Unfortunately with Bobb out maybe Pep is forced to rotate him RW, or maybe McAtee can play there?

 

[OB1]

He’s just a City player.

Think we’ll see a lot of him in that 8 position, while Bobb is out if KDB stays fit think Foden and Savinho share that right wing spot, over Bernardo.

 

[Withnail]

Another masterclass from Bernardo, he is such an intelligent footballer and his partnership with Kovacic worked very well.

 

[ninjamonkey]

Not his fault but i thought pep played him too far forward, we were much better the times he came deeper alongside kovacic. I look forward to a season with bernardo primarily central, he's a better player and were a better team when that's the case.

 

[Manchester_lalala]

More than happy that he’s back in the middle of the park.

 

[normskih]

What a player, love him.

He's been an absolutely class player for years, one of my favourites to watch in your team. His football IQ, his discipline in terms of pressing and positioning, his close control and ability in tight spaces. He's not really an end product player (I know he's had the odd spell here and there) but he offers so much in general play and at an eye test level. The team operates much better and dominates teams far greater when he's playing well.

My username was actually picked because of David, but Bernardo is a little genius too.

I will never understand the Rag weirdos who think Fernandes is a better player than him. Bernardo is twice the player that **** is, especially in football IQ.

 

[David Kloppesh]

Pay whatever it takes because this guy gets City.

Excluding the past G/A kings (Messi, Neymar, Mbappe, Ronaldo, etc) Bernardo is a better player than your favorite player.

 

[Vienna_70]

I don't think he deserved MOTM, but considering he looked dead on his feet in the last 15 of the first half, That was a hell of an effort.

I couldn’t believe my ears, when gargoyle one said his name.

Don’t get me wrong, Bernardo had a great game, but MotM? Never.

Not sure it's just a question of money. Doesn't his missus (and maybe him) want to move somewhere with less shitty weather?

 

[David Kloppesh]

I'm sure his missus is a rational woman.

Yes he's a fantastic player.

I care less about stats than most football fans but I know I am in the minority there. I like players who are great to watch whether they score or not eg Bernardo.

I am with you on the stats thing, look at Spanish Dave, he never had the "numbers" but we could all see he was a different gravy. His play was the assist to the assist that does not get recognised. Back in the day a Dipper swore blindly that Coutinho was a better player because he scored more! I just laughed and walked away, stats are not all that, they are an indicator but for me its the "eye test" that I judge players on.

So true, Bernardo ran his heart out but was ordinary compared with Kovacic or Rico for that matter.

Totally agree, one of my pet hates that, obsession with stats and overlooking the eye test.

 

[MCFC1993]

Obviously one part of his game we never overlook.

 

[MadchesterCity]

Just seen him at Faro airport, what a beautiful man

 

[The perfect fumble]

I agree...
