Why does it matter to you that I don't particularly rate a player that I have watched kick a ball for years? Disagree by all means but I'm more than entitled to say I don't rate him.

Frustrating to see blues write off players before they have even kicked a ball for our team
Remember loads doing it with gana too, poor attitude imo

Based on what I saw with my eyes Bernard was great before fading a bit in the 2nd half.

Had a much better game than Sigurdsson.

If you ignored goals then you could often say that. But how often does his play come to anything?

Sigurdsson will score goals. Bernard will show a few fancy flicks and bits of skill but that won't win us games.

I just don´t rate him from the times I´ve seen him play for Arsenal. I don´t start thinking he´s a different player now he´s in a blue shirt. Hopefully he brings something special to the table, we need him to.

But he will be involved in a lot of play that leads to goal. It doesn't matter who is getting that final ball in for the assist or even who is scoring. Team game.
 
I like Bernard, but he is too small and weak to make it. His skills are not enough to make up for his weakness, not in this league.

Bizarre. Really bizarre.

Bernard was excellent first 30 minutes, then faded. But he was streets ahead of the rest of the attacking unit in terms of performance today.

It's really not. Those kinds of things aren't going to give attackers who don't get shots away, don't create chances and give the ball away bad scores.
 
Said it weeks ago but was laughed at - he's a good squad player but nothing more.

Unless we have a beast 20 goal a season striker (which I dont think we do) then you need your wide players contributing with goals / shots and he does nothing.

Decent player to bring on at 75 minutes to try make something happen and open up the opposition but not for starting against teams that sit back.

Come on lad
A computer generated score?

If You've sat there today and thought gylfi or Richarlison had a better game then Bernard then you haven't got a clue

I thought Richarlison and Bernard had similar performances but Richarlison had multiple shots and almost scored. Gylfi had a shot cleared off the line. It isn't that ridiculous to think they did more.
