Are you really going all in on the back of 'extensive, consistent press coverage making things precisely clear' in this of all months?

How do so many Bluemooners still not know that Pep confirmed Bernardo is unhappy here and wants to leave? Thought it would be common knowledge for any City fan but apparently not.

Broadly speaking yes but the source (s) of his unhappiness are not 'precise and 'clear'. Maybe it's more than just a lifestyle choice and is partly driven by personal ambition as a player?
Maybe he wants be the 18/19 Bernardo again when he scored and assisted for fun and was central to both us and Portugal not the first player replaced when things aren't going to plan? It's possible he feels he needs a new challenge to achieve that.
I have no idea I'm just speculating much like the poster who said he wants to settle down and have kids in sunnier climes. The full picture is not common knowledge that's the point.
 
Last season, maybe in March if I remember correctly - Pep played KDB as a LCM once and he didn't try that ever again.. Bernado played as RCM and the game was easily won. I don't understand why Pep isn't considering this formation:

-------------------Rodri / Gundogan--------------------------
------Bernardo----------------------------KDB-----------------

So, in this formation - Rodri has a great support by Bernardo and possession is easily retained - even against bigger teams.. And KDB also plays in the middle and can dribble, shoot, make crosses and etc.

Yes, he can't cross from the Right Wing as many times as he would like - but truth to be told, with the current strikers - it's unlikely we are gonna score that many goals from the crosses and also - Mahrez or even Bernardo are great with the crosses - so that's not the problem.. (From the team`s perspective and not KDB`s individual statistics)

Otherwise - I don't see why Pep hesitates to play so.

For me, this solve all our problems in the midfield and Bernardo is happy :D

PEP PLEASE....
 
I have some sympathy for him. He's apparently been looking to go for personal reasons for over a year now and he'll probably be disappointed that no club in Spain was able to put something together for him that City would justifiably agree to.

Although for the sake of honesty, I'm selfishly glad he's still at the club. He's a genuine top class player and a top class Bert too.
 
Used to always play and live with a big grin. Long gone.

I do not remember Mendy defending him over the racist incident which, if true, must have sorely disappointed him.

With Mendy gone, who knows, a new lease of life?

Do we still sing the Bernado song, I have not heard it this season, though I am deaf, and normally drunk.
