This is what the coach said: "Bernardo is very important, but the poor guy is another one who has been on holiday. He’s the kind of lad for whom doing nothing during that period is good for his head, and he has shown up in clearly below-par physical condition, he needs to improve . But he’s a tremendous player, who helps us play out from the back if he plays deeper, in the ‘6’ or ‘8’ position." This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.
