Bernardo Silva - 2017/18 performances

[kupest]

Runs around a lot. Dribbles amazingly well and has that X factor about him. A bit slow but thats fine I think

 

[KCblue]

The true heir to Spanish Dave's throne.

 

[Blue Whale]

Promising performance against Bournemouth but needs to toughern up a bit. Knocked of the ball too easily. He'll get used to it though. Merlin did.

Whilst that may be the case long term I'm hoping these two can play alongside one another for a couple more seasons

 

[Tevez City]

Promising performance against Bournemouth but needs to toughern up a bit. Knocked of the ball too easily. He'll get used to it though. Merlin did.

I think he doesnt need to improve anything, he has it all.

 

[CityInWashingtonState]

Truly deserving of his surname. Silva/Silva/KDB are going to kill the opposition once we gel.

Still can't believe we got him for that price. Lemar is being quoted now at 90 million!!!!

Well, you shouldn't.

As is often the case with large transfers, the fee being reported for the deal varies:
Across the channel, British sources like the BBC and the Daily Mail are adamant that the price is “low”. The former are reporting a £43m fee, the latter £60m.
French sources, notably the ever-reliable Mohamed Bouhafsi of RMC is reporting a fee arrangement worth €70m, with sources on the Monaco side informing GFFN that the deal could rise up to €80m.

That's still cheaper then lemar who isn't nearly as good as silva

Needs to get on the weights with Vinnie

 

[Bpughh]

Monaco was so good last season

Got an autograph from him today.

The most genuine, humble and down to earth footballer I've come face to face. Always has time for a pic and a very quick chat, permanent smile on his face.

:)

Starts for Portugal in their World Cup qualifier against Faroe Islands tonight.

Just got the assist to Ronaldo for Portugal's opener.

 

[Jonsilfab]

Ended with 3 assists for Portugal tonight.

No, he only had 1.

 

[KCblue]

No, he only had 1.

Woops! Went off a poster in one of the transfer threads claiming he had 3. I checked WhoScored but they didn't show assists like they usually do. I turned it over to the France match after the first goal so I only saw his one assist then.

 

[mccity]

No, he only had 1.

Time to get rid then.

I think now that he is looking fully fit (after coming from vacation) and when he is given time to gel with the players, he will become extremely vital for us. I'd like to see him in better goal scoring opportunities and see his finishing ability.

That's really good to hear, didn't know anything about his personality until I saw this, love players like that.

I think him playing for Portugal in the qualifiers will benefit both him and us massively. He needed minutes to get up to speed, hopefully he comes back raring to go ahead of Liverpool.
