The brew incident happened at The Etihad when we had to give them a guard of honour for winning the league.

For me his best performance was against Liverpool in 2019 when he broke the premier league record for the most amount of running and pitch covered in a single game. Still don't think that's ever been beaten

Thanks for the correction.

I had it in my mind that it was the game where Allison couldn’t save our shots because he had cold feet, according to Klippety.

Was this Pep L.’s news to share?

I think they’ve known about it for a while (Romano has clear links to Viana and he’s been reporting it for months) and they’ve chosen this time to announce it on purpose.

Win the league cup against Arsenal, absolutely smash Liverpool in the cup, everyone’s on a massive high, and then let everyone know the captain is leaving in 9 games time? We’re riding a massive wave of confidence and now everyone is going to be desperate to see Bernardo lift 3 trophies this year as captain, it’s just going to turn everything up a notch or two.
 
I'm glad he will leave with one of his best seasons performances both as a player and a captain. Always best to leave on a high and he will, irrespective of wether we win more this season. The word legend is bandied about and sometimes applied to players and characters who really don't deserve the label. Bernie does. One of our all time greats. He is up there with the others, Colin, David, Kevin, Sergio, Fern, Vincent. Faultless both on and off the pitch. So many fantastic memories of this wonderful footballer.
 
Love him, one of my favourite players and going out whilst still being a part of our strongest XI speaks to his longevity and determination.

Arguably our greatest player ever, might seem a big statement but just look at what he has done for us.

Like he said, if Manchester was a 1000 miles south it'd be perfect and coming out of those long winter months, can't disagree with him there!

If we can somehow get this domestic treble it might be his greatest achievement but even sending him out with 2 trophies would be great.
 
One of those “wears his heart on his sleeve” players that fans of any club love to have. He was also blessed with a football brain and no shortage of ability.
He has done wonders for City and Nescafé these last nine seasons.
Absolute baller.
 
Blessed with the touch of an angel, the running ability of Abebe Bikila, and the brattitude of the biggest Bert.

My favourite player, not the greatest ever City player, but my absolute favourite.
 
This is the bloke we need in the Sky pundits team.
 
One of the best big game players I've ever seen pull on a blue shirt. Probably also the most tenacious and driven on the pitch. When the going gets tough, Bernardo always gets going. Have also lost count of the amount of crucial goals he's scored over the years.

He's at the very core of what has made us so successful over the past decade. Will forever be a club legend and I'll miss him deeply.
 
You listen to ex pros talking about him and you realise how good he is. Fans don't quite get it.

He could definitely do a job next year in some form but the gaffer will just play him every 90 minutes which might not be ideal for him or us! 18 trophies (so far) in 9 years. Thank you Bernie!

As I said on another thread - we are fucking ruined.
