The Cityzens coach was asked about Semenyo, but preferred to talk about the Portuguese player: You can’t imagine how good a player he is.
Bernardo Silva is nearing the end of his contract with Manchester City, but if it were up to Pep Guardiola, he would have already renewed. The City manager was asked about the performance of new signing Antoine Semenyo in the victory over Newcastle (2-0) , however, he preferred to talk about the Portuguese international.
“In the second half he was much, much better physically. But today, Bernardo was again… You can’t imagine how good a player Bernardo Silva is. This club will miss him. I hope he can renew for who knows how many centuries. What he has is special. That guy knows what it means to play football and be a competitor. He knows all the rules. Absolutely all of them, said the Catalan coach in a press conference.
Bernardo Silva, 31, is in his ninth season at City. This season, the Manchester club’s captain has already played 29 games (one goal and three assists).
