Spanish Dave being given a contract extension would have me stroking my chin. But I’m just an old guy who loved playing for my village team. If I were him I’d put playing regularly as first choice at the top of my list but what do I know.
I take your point but in a scenario where Bernardo was seen as Silva's replacement (again, I know that's up for debate) then I wouldn't take the extension as too much as a shock. You'd expect to see Bernardo play more games next season (Silva turns 33 next season) and then, as sad as it is to say, Silva winding down to playing the number of games Bernardo has this season by 2020. Fits in with what you'd expect.
