But this time, the tone was even more personal, almost intimate, like a farewell to a player who had become indispensable in his project.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\" data-section-id=\"a9te0q\" data-start=\"936\" data-end=\"974\">A unique player\u2026 and irreplaceable<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"976\" data-end=\"1235\">Beyond the statistics, it is Bernardo Silva&#8217;s playing intelligence that marked his coach: \u201cHe proved that football begins in the brain before going to the feet. He&#8217;s not the fastest, but he always knows exactly what to do. \u00bb<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1237\" data-end=\"1499\">Guardiola also insisted on the exceptional consistency of the Portuguese, rarely injured and always involved, as well as on his human qualities: \u201cHe always sees the positive side of life. That&#8217;s why he will always be happy, with his family. \u00bb<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1501\" data-end=\"1756\">But it is undoubtedly his last statement that best sums up the importance of Bernardo Silva at Manchester City: \u201cWithout him, these last few years would have been much worse. He is a truly special person. The club that gets him will be very lucky. \u00bb<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1758\" data-end=\"1953\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\">While his departure is now confirmed, Bernardo Silva leaves behind an immense imprint.
