Paulo Bernardo

So following the managers instructions down to a tee.

 

On channel 4seven right now captaining Portugal u21s in the euros against France for anyone wanting to watch

 

He turned 23 last January. How tf is he still playing for the u21 team?

 

If your 21 or under at the start of the qualifying campaign you can carry on playing.

 

Aye I remember that Saudi Arabian team that started qualifying 20 years before the U-16 tourney started.

 

These two centre half’s for Portugal are brilliant. How do sporting just keep consistently producing good CB’s too? From the ages of 17-22 every CB they have at the club at the minute is good

Bernardo not had a great game himself though, two sitters missed first half aswell

On CH4 right now
Por - Hol (U21)

 

That documentary has been on channel 4 before the portholes from America

 

Portugal * this, almost the whole game with an extra man.
The pundits bigging up Quenda, thought he was poor. Runs but no end product.

 

Dreadful game generally. Paulo was just Paulo, total meh. Hooked after 60 mins .

 

I'd be so happy to offload. Not good enough.

 

After a full pre-season, think next year he’s going to be on fire, will show what weve seen in batches of 5-10 games of confidence.

If Rodgers allows it that is. Last season, fresh from a MotM 3-0 against Rangers the most commanding performance of the season against them. He got dropped. When he came on, he was showing that form still, didn’t matter.

Next season, we need to play who’s commanding the best form. Not for price tags, or because I think he’s one of those absolute pros, all for the team… that he is easy to drop, because he won’t make a fuss snd come back in and do what he needs to. But that’s bullshit

 

I still think this guy will come good for us.

 

He wasn't showing that form end of season sadly.

I think he suffered most from Engles being signed and to a degree having to be played.

Definitely a player there, just need to see it. Really do hope he's gets the chance preseason.

 

I just don't get what he is meant to be he just tends to float through games not doing much of anything. He's been here for 2 seasons now and I still don't know what his strengths are

 

Wasn't MOTM though was he .....

 

Did he not get it? I thought he did in the stadium but I was half cut


He should have. Was by far the best player on the pitch

 

does need to step up no doubt. But he is a good player. Can offer things engels can't at times. Good ball winner, shields the ball well. But he wont get a run of games.
