Just taken the 2nd one for my desk top. Not only a great celebration, but a very good quality picture
 
The greatest compliment I can give him is that he slightly softens the blow of merlin getting older.
 
Quoting this from The Guardian podcast because it's a great summary.

"Bernardo Silva's performance was simply ridiculous. It's like you had some kind of hybrid of David Silva at his best and N'Golo Kante. Which is perhaps the ideal midfielder, would you say? The numbers are just extraordinary. 13.7km run, most of them high intensity sprints, not just ambling round the pitch. 18 duels won. That's crazy. And 10 ball recoveries, that's absolutely insane."

The same Guardian that employs the bastion of truth, balance and objectivity that is Jamie Jackson
 
I think his talent ceiling may be even higher than David's, who I think is probably our best ever player. Given his age, touch, dribbling and movement, allied to an incredible workrate, he is a sublime talent.
 
Did anyone notice how deep he played for large portions of the first half - almost as a second DM beside Fern. For a good while they were barely five yards apart. I know he hasn't got the physicality but then neither does Kante (do you think we could get him back?). He sure has the control, passing ability and workrate. Could he be our stand in DM for when Fern needs a rest/isn't available?
