#20 | Bernardo Silva - 2020/21 Performances

[Silva2021]

His best games in the middle for us are when De Bruyne does not play.

Be great if Pep could fix that so they can play together with Rodri behind.

Guys - please someone explain me - why we haven't seen this midfield trio on this exact positions - at least ONCE during these years

------------------------Rodri----------------------------------------
------Bernardo------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------Debruyne--------------------

What breaks here ? who plays out of his original position ?
is there something I miss or can't understand or what..

Someone should ask PEP directly about this, maybe he will explain better :D

Rock and hard place, unfortunately

Bernardo would have to restrict his ability to drive forward, which is nullifying his talent, thus he’s literally, stuck in no man’s land...

KDB can obviously play that QB role, again though, the way teams now set up, conscious to hit us on the break, it becomes ineffective.... circumstances sometimes dictate reasoning, which this is just one of them

looks a no brainer but I can see why!

Didn't Pep have those 3 against Watford (post-lockdown)? I feel like he did and it worked. Correct me if I’m wrong please.

We have 2 of the best attacking midfielders in world football. Pep needs to find away to incorporate both. A constant midfield of Bernie, Kev and rodders with Laporte and Dias looks strong and a nice balance. No excuses get them playing together in the middle.

 

[WallyA]

We played better when he started playing like a midfielder instead of striker.

 

[hammersmithlad]

Just love Bernie...proper fans’ player.

Ran his socks off tonight compared to the rest of the team.

Hard done by for the yellow tonight.

Need him on the pitch for his positivity & energy alone.

 

[super_city_si]

Baffling that he shows exactly what we’ve been missing on Saturday as the link up man then is completely Marginalized by pep in the next game.

I think our current best line up would see both Foden and Mahrez drop out with Aguero up top and Silva and Sterling on the wings ahead of De Bruyne, Rodri and Fernandinho. I’d also prefer to see Foden more from the middle as I don’t think he’s having as much impact out wide as he would in there.

That is NOT our best lineup.

This is:
Gabriel, Sterling, Foden, Bernado, Debryune, Rodri, Ake, Laporte, Dias, Walker, Eddy

Gabriel, Sterling, Foden, Bernado, Debryune, Rodri, Ake, Laporte, Dias, Walker, Eddy

Id be tempted to play Torres and drop Rodri,the midfield trio of Bernie,Foden and Kev have everything needed to ensure he wouldn't be missed.
