In the last 11 games they have accumulated 8 defeats, two draws and only one victory and are experiencing their worst moment since Pep arrived on the bench. In the Manchester derby, when they were leading 1-0 in the 87th minute and seemed to have the game in their pocket, United ended up coming back to deepen the problems of their neighbors.
My friend, if you make these stupid decisions with three or four minutes left, you deserve to pay for it.

One of the authorized voices in the locker room is Bernardo Silva. The Portuguese exploded on the Sky microphone after a new defeat and was very uncritical of the team.
“If in the 87th minute of the game, in a derby, you are winning 1-0, you have a corner for your team and the ball ends up in your goalkeeper and a penalty for them… My friend, if you make these types of stupid decisions when there are three or four minutes left… You deserve it, you deserve to pay for it,” he explained.
It is true that, for the footballer, City deserved to win. “It’s true that if you watch the game there is only one team, in my opinion, there is only one team that could win that game, but in the end we lost. And it’s not just one game, there are many games in the last minutes,” Silva said. .
