Last week, Pep Guardiola heralded Bernardo Silva as a player who could press three players in one minute - something the manager claimed no other player in world football can do.
Guardiola has been keen to praise Bernardo as 'unique' in world football, and integral to his Manchester City side. Other players, like Kevin De Bruyne and Riyad Mahrez, have been singled out for criticism this season.
Not Bernardo - although it helps he has been in ridiculously good form of late. Maybe Guardiola is thinking of Bernardo's long-held stance that he would prefer a transfer away from the Etihad if possible.
