In terms of achievements (trophies) and overall playing standard, is our Fernandinho the best Brazilian footballer to play in the PL?

My best friend is an Arsenal supporter and he says Gilberto Silva is the best. I, obviously, disagree and feel Ferna has had the best time in England.

What do you guys think?
 
By a mile, for me. He's the most underrated player around.

He's still the best defensive mid in the team and going off a few mistakes that Laporte has made at the club (depsite being a great player), Fern might well be the best centre half we have at the club n'all!

He barely ever puts a foot wrong and you can count on one hand the amount of poor games he's had in six years with the club.
 
Course he’s not he plays for City !

Your forgetting every commentators mate “bobby “ Firminio.... he surely is the best , or Coutinho, Fabinho , Fred, Kleberson,

He probably would t even get in to a Brazilian premiership 11
 
On his day, yes. I'd go as far as saying he's the best midfielder in the world.

But when he has his off days, normally around January time, he's shocking and looks scared of asking for the ball.
 
I think Rafael has one more PL than him, but fewer overall trophies, and Luiz has won everything bar a league cup, so it depends on how you want to add them up?
 
Not much competition really. The only legitimate rivals to that title would be Gilberto Silva and Juninho, but Fernandinho is better than both. The next best after them 3 would be Coutinho or even David Luiz, which says it all really.

Mate if HE or Spanish Dave had played for any of the history boys they would have won personal awards galore.
 
Nah Juninho. Dinho is second best though.

Sergio the best Argie.
Dave the best Cocker Spaniard.
Kev and Vinny drawing for best Belgian.
Yaya the best Ivorian.
Mahrez the best Algerian.
Aleks the best Serbian.
Dzeko the best Bosnian.
Who have I missed?

Edit, Kinky obviously.

Kaziu Deyna the best Polish player
 
Fernandinho has been so great for so many years, that I reckon if there was a poll of "best Brazilian" now, he might even get as high as second, behind (insert any Liverpool player here, who has ever visited Brazil, or perhaps can just find it on a map of the World).
