2019/20 Bernard

[Rob17896]

Every team in the top 5 is good at diving. No one likes it but it is how you win games in this era. Refusing to take part is no different than telling your goalie not to use his hands.

I know but it is despicable. Game is ruined with it.

could be our david silva. will have to wait and see how he looks once quality is around him

If somehow we can get 90 minutes out of Bernard it will be even better. Deulefeu was the same, all class but no stamina, and subbed every game he played. He has got that stamina now at Watford and is one who will be in demand, maybe even returning to Barca one day.

It's awful. But I'm tired of seeing moments like Walcott getting fouled yesterday go against us.

Deulofeu is a modern day Taarabt. He only thrives at a club willing to put up with the antics. Great player but he will never be playing in a top team I don't think.

I think the Bernard subs are more injury related than stamina. He has had a tough time staying healthy so no need to over extend him.

He didn’t have a point. I never even said Bernard was better than Pienaar in the first place.

Fair do's

Never know what your going to get out of him frustrates and excites in equal measure

Spot on.

Walcott goes down he gets a pen from VAR, because he stays on his feet he make the decision of no pen from VAR an easy one.

Man U are top of the table.

Man U are top of the table.

I've been thinking about this for awhile and I can't figure out even a little bit what you mean

Top of the getting pen table.

Top of the getting pen table.

Right and Rashford, Martial and James dive constantly. Thanks for helping me out.

Garth Crooks' team of the week: Aguero, Mata, Van Dijk, James, Ings

Which Chelsea youngster finally makes the cut? And which Everton midfielder buzzed around Goodison Park? Find out in Garth Crooks' team of the week.

"Bernard: This lad was only on the pitch for 72 minutes but the impact he made on Everton against a resilient Brighton side was clear. Bernard buzzed around Goodison Park like the legendary Colin Harvey used to - and he had to do it without players of the calibre of Alan Ball or Howard Kendall supporting him. That's the problem for new manager Carlo Ancelotti - Everton lack quality in midfield, Bernard apart."
