No I agree. I'm not here saying Bernard is brilliant we need to keep him because he's so good. I'm saying he's a functional squad player who is used quite often, and if we let him go I think we need somebody coming in to offset it. I was saying this the other day, I'd happily see Tosun, Bernard and Kenny all go tonight, but I probably won't be so happy with that if we're 1-0 down in a cup semi final or the derby and our options off the bench are to bring on another keeper or a 16 year old full back.Probably says more about the squad than Bernard. Let’s not forget Ancelotti has has 2 keepers on the bench quite a few times.
I’m not sure how many league games Bernard has stated this year, but I doubt it’s many. Amd when you consider. Richarlison has missed games, James too and Iwobi. Add to disruption in midfield. He’s very much a last resort. And last resorts, shouldn’t be one of the highest paid players
