David Silva's heir apparent...

[jay laruja]

Think it's Bernardo Silva but hoping it could be Foden. With that said, I don't think there's actually anyone that can fill that role seamlessly.

I don't see it. I think Sterling will play more centrally next year though but in a more advanced attacking position.

Isco

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Foden

Absolutely not. Totally different skill sets. They could hardly be less alike.

Not sure yet whether Bernardo has the potential. Quite possibly.

I’ve seen much less of the kids but would love it if one of them were to grow into Merlin’s boots.

I dont think David's hair is very apparent these days.

Here's one from completely left field.

We've all been sat here assuming(mainly based on his demeanour and name) that Bernardo Silva will move inside to eventually take over from Merlin.

I've just been thinking and what if it's actually Sterling?

You think Pep could take what English fans see purely as a winger with a bit of pace and turn him into a deep lying explosive central playmaker over the next few years?

Hahahahahaha April fools was last month

Anyone else concerned we have way too many players in his position?

Even if Silva gets less game time, how are we supposed to accommodate Gundogan, Bernardo Silva, Foden, Diaz and now possibly Mahrez too. Even if B. Silva & Mahrez play on the right this season, then when you throw in Sterling at right forward there's just not enough game time for all of them

I've looked at the thread title and twice now I thought i read 'David Silva's hair replacement'.
