#25 | Fernandinho - 2021/22 Performances

[yankblue]

Absolute legend.

Hope he comes back as part of the staff, but moving on at this stage is the right move in my eyes as painful as it is.

 

[GaudinoMotors]

Come on Fern, as great as you have been for us, and as highly regarded as you are, this moment comes for every athlete. Do it in keeping with your status.

 

[ninjamonkey]

Simeone's wet dream. Came on and put in an excellent disciplined experienced display and shown he's the absolute master of shithousery if those cunts want to go there.

Only thing lacking was a wry smile on the floor after another well earned freekick and a zoomed in close up of it. Di Maria knows what I'm talking about.

 

[jollylescott]

Superb exhibition of the dark arts (and he played really well apart from that).

He showed that loathsome team that he can also manipulate events on the pitch, and might I say he has clearly taught Phil a trick or two!!

 

[Boo or Boo-urns]

When Foden got up to join in the rumble, Dinho pushed him straight back down onto the floor, thus prolonging the shithousery and wasting more time, was classic Dinho.

Dinho.

 

[Brad mcfc]

Never afraid too get stuck in, absolute legend.

 

[waspish]

If I was a manager of one of the premier clubs I’d give him a two year contract what he will give to the dressing room money can’t buy.

 

[B\connellblue]

Sould have been on far earlier.
His experience and steel was missing.

 

[domalino]

Sould have been on far earlier.
His experience and steel was missing.

I wonder if that's because of his age. 30 minutes of extra time was always possible and I wonder if Pep doubted he could do an hour at the pace of that game last night.

 

[kaz7]

You can see why he still wants to play

Brilliant sub , the capt of no nonsense and to protect the other , lurve him so much

 

[B\connellblue]

Possibly but he's in great shape still.

 

[mcfc482]

He has been great but time to go, physically done and his passing was truly terrible.

 

[handsofstone]

His legs have gone, it's actually good he's leaving this year

What a legend, but he's just not at the level anymore

 

[FantasyIreland]

Can't fault the man,he will take his last breath on the pitch if he has to.....but,well out of his depth now,and its painful to watch at times.

 

[nickamon]

He's provided great service so I'll be kind but I think he was the weak link in the midfield. We just couldn't get a hold of the midfield because a few times, he was not showing for the ball. Really think we lost today because we didn't have enough in the midfield and he was a factor.

 

[the old abbey]

Great servant but finished. Should be nowhere near a starting eleven. Passed more to Liverpool than he did to his own team.

 

[OrigamiNinja]

Love the guy but yeah he’s at a stage where he can’t run games like this anymore.

That being said, 37 years old being forced to play against our biggest rivals at full strength, while we make a shitload of changes. He would have struggled with that in his prime.

 

[Deleted member 81382]

He's been a great servant to the club but it's clearly time to call it a day at this level.

It makes you realise how risky it was to go in to the season with him as our only back up at defensive midfield. If Rodri had picked up an injury and been out for an extended period of time it would've completely jeopardized our whole season. Definitely a position that needs addressing in the summer.

 

[ID70]

Not sure he'll play again for us again before he leaves after today's performance

 

[jimmygrimblesboots]

Must have been watching a different game , he was the only player driving the team forward in the second half , there were a couple who didnt turn up but Dinho wasnt one of them
