2020/21 Bernard

[Andy_Oz]

As with most other comments, play him in the middle where he can find pockets of space between def-mid to try and knit play together. Without Digne (or another) overlapping then he’s a waste of time out wide

Useless when he came on, he’s a number 10 or nothing

More like a number two mate, because he's absolutely turd.

I’ve wanted Bernard to get game time and fully backed him. Tonight’s performance has confirmed why Ancelotti doesn’t select him.

With Gordon left back doing a good job defending you need a player who’s a threat on their own not a link up player.
Should’ve been Gordon, should’ve been a direct attacker.

Yeah Godfrey was class. My motm. But does need someone self sufficient in front of him.

Unfathomable how he gets considered to wear the shirt. Weak, incapable and way out of his depth playing in the prem.

Maybe it's a face-saving exercise? "Shiiiiii-iiyt, we're paying this guy 120k a week, best give him some minutes"

He tried to play a nutmeg pass past Pogba later on in the game and I have no idea what he was trying to achieve. It didn't work anyway but he hit it with so little power that it wouldn't have reached our man anyway.

As if, he’s just utterly cack. You could play him in any position you like, and he will remain utter cack!

 

[Zatara]

His best performances have been with Digne overlapping. With Godfrey at left back I never fancied him. Maybe resurrecting that Roma deal best for all concerned.

Any money from Roma and we should take it

17 old Italian Lira, snap their hands off.

Who bought him?Stevie Wonder

 

[hktoffee]

Not physical enough for this league.

Nope play him in Saudi—Arabia. Somewhere warm and the football is sssssslllllllloooooowwwwww!

Trouble is we have James Siggy and Awobi all ahead of him in that position.

I like Bernard but he needs a run of games and Carlo Ancelotti doesn't seem prepared to give the lad any sort of extended playing time. It appears that, for now, he's to remain little more than a very costly bench warmer for us. If that is going to be the case, Marcel Brands needs to actively start trying to offload Bernard to free up the funds he's being paid. Then we could bring in someone more suited to the managers' needs.
