20 | Bernardo Silva - 2021/22 Performances

[kaz7]

Ive been on that page for a long time....KDB is a wonderful talent,not quite what he was,but still capable of brilliance.
Unfortunately his presence is not suited to Bernardo's game,and he will never fully shine while they are in the same 11.

I honestly believe the fact he has been positionally 'sacrificed' over the past couple of seasons in favour of KDB was partly responsible for his unhappiness,and reason enough for him to want a move to a club that will build around him.

He doesnt want to leave because of kev , fucking lol , he made it clear he missed home and family in the pandemic, he knows he is valued

Don’t you even think about leaving Bernie. Win us the European cup in Istanbul next year then you can go back to Portugal with your bird.

He will stay for the rest of his career, Inshallah.

 

[DruntBlunt]

That's the one 'signing' I want to see now - Bernie staying.

 

[M Gaudino]

All the talk of a swap with FDJ, I dont give a fuck who you swap him for. He’s the best ‘box to box’ midfielder in Europe. engine and quality on the ball.

if we lose him we will be weaker regardless of who comes in

 

[Mike N]

Another cracking performance from Bernardo.

 

[ninjamonkey]

I know having a patched up defence didn't help but you can clearly see how open and vulnerable we become when Bernardo isn't doing all the unnoticed work in midfield. Doesnt matter who we bring in this summer with Haaland and alvarez, if we lose Bernardo we're a significantly weaker squad and will have to change our approach

 

[FantasyIreland]

So important to our cohesion and our press,without his superhuman endurance and efforts,not to mention his technical brilliance and inspirational character....this team would be significantly weaker and poorer.

The man has the heart of a lion.

 

[lonestay]

There was one point in the game last night where Bernie didn't close the man down , but just moved to the point where he knew the player would go to, and 5 seconds later Bernie had the ball, it's that level of subconscious football skill we would desperately miss if Bernie were to leave .

 

[handsofstone]

Hoping he stays beyond his current contract, but he seems pretty adamant he wants to go back to his family in Portugal or at least be closer to them

Will be a massive loss, this guy is incredible, one of the best players I nthe world who largely doesn't get any credit

Replacing him will be as hard as replacing anyone

Gonna enjoy his brilliance while he's still here
