Much the same as De Bruyne: love him to bits, forever grateful, but it's the right time.

Hope we drop the asking price so he can get a move to Benfica and finish his playing days at home.

Legend for us

Right time to go

 

[OrigamiNinja]

He’s only 30, he should easy have another 2 or 3 years at the top level with us. Not only that, Pep loves him. If this story is true, it shows just how bad Bernie has been over the past couple of seasons.

Imagine if he goes to Sporting.

 

[Otamendi's Beard]

Bernardo's magic, work rate and consistency was out of this world during our most successful period. A unique player.

It does, however, feel like he may need a new challenge to rediscover his best form.

His speed has never held him back due to his magnificence with and without the ball. But it feel more of a hindrance now that he's lost a bit of spark / energy.

One of my favourite players of all time.

 

[Brewster's millions]

He looks like somebody who wants to go, and in fact someone who wanted to leave a couple of years ago.

He hasn’t been at the top level for 2yrs. He’s the slowest player in the PL and offers us exactly nothing. Genuinely don’t know what you’re watching.

Moved to its own thread.

It's brutal if true but not entirely wrong. Does feel like we need to change it up now.

Gutted if it's him and Kev to go, my 2 favourite players in the last 10 years.

I'd be happy to see him as a squad player and see out his contract, get a proper send off next season.

Read it again.

 

[ONTHERUNWITHTHAKSIN]

It’s hard watching players who have served us and the club magnificently over the last few years leave

But like Serg, David, Vinny, Zabba, Fern and Yaya when they left the club as to move forward

We can’t rewind the years

Imagine if he goes to Sporting.

Benifica more likely

 

[mexico1970]

If this seasons performances are anything to go by we need a seismic shift in personel, love Bernie to death but football has never been about sentiment at the top.

Not happy to see him go but understand it.

 

[Coatigan]

Doubt the club go telling players under contract they aren't part of their plans, that bit seems like bullshit.

Him wanting to go though, sure can believe that.

He will have a year on his contract, I can see him seeing that out tbh.

When you are being held captive your not going to give your all

 

[Crooked_rain]

Legend but I think it's the right time. Massive drop off over the last two seasons, especially this one.

He's only 30 but he's either an old 30 or he simply needs a fresh start.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

Going to be midnight & tears by the time we say our goodbyes after the Bournemouth game.

 

[oldius]

Like Kev, it looks like the right time to let Bernardo go. Another legend, but not the player he was, at least not right now. Better to remember a great than a fallen star. What a player.

 

[red 2 hats]

If true, all great things must come to an end.

 

[stonerblue]

Absolute bollocks.
