Bernardo Silva will surely continue to be one of the most important players for Pep Guardiola at Manchester City. Though his numbers do not tell half the story, the diminutive Portuguese midfielder is quite a force to be reckoned with.

Primed to take over from David Silva, Bernardo Silva has already become a regular feature for Guardiola. However, he has only started twice this season after 4 gameweeks and has scored only 1 goal which came in City's 4-0 thumping of Brighton & Hove Albion.

His contributions for the Portuguese side have been great too. He was the UEFA Nations' League player of the tournament and played a major hand in Portugal winning the first edition of the tournament. If he can manage to match his own levels from last season in the coming weeks, Bernardo Silva could even finish on the podium this time around.
