This might sound great in theory but the reality is that Bernardo has been one of our best players whilst supposedly being less than fully motivated.
There's also pretty much no chance of bringing in someone who is as good as him, works as hard as him and gels with the team right away given that whoever comes in would need to be ready to play the majority of our games as a starter.
If he was to go (and I obviously hope he doesn't), I think we'd need to sign two players to replace him and I can't really see that happening whilst the club is already dragging their feet over signing a player in a position we quite obviously are in desperate need of filling.
