I like Bernado and think he's great but I think he's starting to get a little overrated. He simply doesnt have the impact Gundogan or KDB has on City's games. He's an important cog sure but on the level of Gundogan or KDB? Absolutely not.

You're undervaluing the impact of Bernardo's defensive work and what it brings to the team in the big games. He can lead the press or sit in next to Rodri and win the ball with intercpetions/deflections. Or he can fill in gaps when others attack. He keeps the ball recycles the ball and creates spaces for others which are the most important element of Pep's style.

I think they are going to bring in permanently the CC style ref announcements right after VAR decisions are made, so they might tread a bit more carefully if they have to give an explanation that's complete bullshyt to the whole crowd.
Something needs to be done and they need to explain their decisions cos at the moment all we get is the PGMOL what ever they are called coming out afterwards saying oh sorry we made a mistake but nothing from the ref or var

And weather it's because of incompetance, corruption or just favouritism ( you could level all them words at Oliver and he is our best ref supposedly ) ( and we all know he is paid by City owners ) it's a joke because league titles have been won in recent years on dodgy decisions that are so clear to every one else by 1 point

This one for example won them the league by 1 point


And then You have this one

and who was the ref in that game Oliver who again is paid by city owners with Attwell as var, ( another shocking ref )
Ok Liverpool fell apart after the Man U
Fa Cup game but things could have been different if we got that clear penalty decision

I saw a picture today on them in the var room and instead of concentrating on the game one of them was on Bet365
Are refs even allowed to be betting on games :jbhmm:

If they have to explain instead of hiding behind PGMOL, they might not be thinking f&ck it i hate that team or manager so I'm not going to give it them as I don't have to explain my self

At least Madrid are 1-0 down…. It’ll force them to keep their starting XI on for longer… if not the whole game. :yeshrug:

Not at all. His impact is immense but to say its more than KDB is a stretch.
