20 | Bernardo Silva - 2025/26

I'm looking at it through the lens of a tall person, thank you for reminding myself of my height privilege.

We're all the same height under the skin :)
How high can you jump? Plenty of tall people who struggle in that department despite the obvious height adavantage.

Bernardo is our little scrapper, he's the little engine that can and we'll miss him massively when he's gone.

It’s Pep’s most underrated talent, he replaces stars with stars. Different players, players you’d never imagine.
De Bruyne replaced YaYa, nothing a like, nothing at all.
Bernardo has replaced Fernandino, he covered every blade of grass, doing all the ugly stuff, grafting his nuts off and doing all the shithousery you can think of.

Bernardo alone remains from our starting XI that day: Stones an unused sub; everyone else - Ederson, Walker, KdB, Serge, Vinny, Spanish Dave, Sterling and Gundo - each and every one a legend - gone; Leroy, Eric, Gaby, Mahrez, Zinny and The General - all central figures of multiple trophy-winning games and seasons - gone too; only Muric, and possibly Danilo from that day, were bit-part players overall.

From one of the best young players in Europe to elder Sky Blue Statesman in the blink of an old foc’s eye. My favourite ever Pep signing.
 
Peps done well so far picking his games. In hindsight today probably wasn’t a good fit based on the ref just allowing them to kick and push us all afternoon.

In the right games he still has a lot to offer.
 
Should have off loaded him ages ago as far as his age etc etc
And as his biggest negative critic last season I can now understand why he’s still rated by Pep
One of few players who inject passion energy and a bit of edge to the team and as seen yesterday does the dirty stuff gets in the refs ear etc etc
What really pissed me off yesterday was Haaland doing a Peo style rant for the cameras in Bernie’s ear before the second half ko
Ffs Bernie thankfully just turned his back I’d have told him to fuck off and make sure he puts the ball in the net this half thats your job and I’ll carry on doing mine
