20 | Bernardo Silva - 2025/26

[pbueno16]

I need to see him lift the trophies for the domestic treble. It’s only right for players like Bernardo, Stones and Ake to go out like that.

 

[bluemoon32]

I haven't noticed anyone saying he won't be a loss. Most are complimentary

There were loads of negative comments about him in matchday threads all season, loads saying to fuck him off.
Turns out, he's been an important player for us yet again

I wouldn't pass too much notice to the matchday threads.

True ha

Similar to Mahrez, I don't think I'll truly appreciate how much Bern has brought to the team until he leaves.

Little scamp.

Some perhaps unexpected stats about Bernie at City:

More goals in CL knockout games (12) than Giggs (6) and Scholes (5) combined and as many as Gerrard (6) and Henry (6 - at Arsenal) combined.

More league goals at Anfield and Old Trafford than Henry and Bergkamp combined or as many as Drogba and Aguero combined.

Basically, Bernardo has been one of the greatest big game players in PL history.

I think his own words summed things up perfectly. He played exactly like a fan would want someone to. He combined superb technical ability with that dogged determination and hardwork, getting stuck into the opposition at every opportunity. The bigger the game, the harder he worked and he personified the fans with his efforts on the pitch. We need him to do the same for the rest of this season and we'll have a domestic treble (again).

B. Silva - an awesome player now in decline... but still key to our success. If he wants to move on... let him go... as one of our best ever players.

We have quite a few hysterical match day hypocrites on this forum mate, you know the score; )

 

[rodrizontal]

I think he can still play at the highest level. Because of the way Pep utilizes him and his selflessness, I feel like some people don't realize how good he is. He is going to do well wherever he goes and people will start saying stupid stuff like 'why wasn't he this good at City?'

 

[pbueno16]

That's my fucking captain

 

[jollylescott]

What an absolutely brilliant game by our captain. He's was everywhere!!!!

 

[BlueMerlin]

Deserves a statue.

 

[kaz7]

Oh bernie

 

[sh249]

Give him a statue for that performance alone.

 

[ShaunMCFC]

I miss him already.

 

[Jonas.shaffer]

I've said it before, and I'll say it again—best player in the club's history.

I genuinely think his legacy edges out David Silva's, and that's no slight on the latter, who's a legend in his own right.

 

[blue_danube]

Immense

I still think it's the right time to leave for him and I think the fact he is leaving is the reason for heroic performances like this

 

[Goater=Legend]

He's an all timer. That was an unreal performance

 

[OrigamiNinja]

Pep must have been giving everyone else a chance to make it interesting by having this guy play RWF for half a season. Next to Rodri, with Cherki in front, we actually have a functioning midfield again. A captains performance out there.
