🚨 Pep Guardiola asked who the best midfielder in the world is right now:
“Declan Rice is exceptional.”
“He gives you balance, control, power, leadership and defensive security.”
“He can dominate transitions and physically he is one of the best midfielders in football.”
“But if we are speaking about the complete influence on a game right now, for me it is Bruno Fernandes.”
“What Bruno does offensively is on another level.”
“He creates goals, scores goals, controls tempo and takes responsibility every single match.”
“People always focus on flair, but the hardest thing in football is consistency.”
“And Bruno produces every week.”
“What impresses me most is that he can play in chaos.”
“Some midfielders need the perfect structure around them.”
“Bruno can still decide games even when Manchester United are struggling.”
“That is a very rare quality.”
“With Declan, you feel stability.”
“With Bruno, you feel danger.”
“And football at the highest level is decided by players who can change games in one moment.”
“Right now, in terms of influence, creativity, leadership and productivity, I think Bruno Fernandes is the best midfielder in the world.”

Declan Rice in the premier league

Enzo Fernandez in the premier league
35 games - 10 goals , 5 assists
Casemiro - 34 games - 9 goals , 2 assists
You don’t even need to bring Bruno Fernandes to make an argument . Rice didn’t even have a better season than the names above
Player of the season lmao
🚨 Thierry Henry on Bruno Fernandes winning PFA Player of the season over Declain Rice:
“Look, some people aren’t gonna like this and I don’t care……..it needs saying.
Players like Luis Suárez, Gareth Bale, N’Golo Kanté, even Mohamed Salah in certain years, have won this award without reaching the level Bruno Fernandes is at right now in the Premier League.
He’s been absolutely outstanding. For me, he’s one of the most underappreciated players in this league…” Arsenal fans can hate all they won't but I don't care because I am not a hypocrite.
When all is said and done, whether you think last years @TipperaryGAA side were the worst team ever to win an All Ireland is irrelevant. Ronan Maher climbed the steps in Croke Park and need to back our boys to recover from a disappointing year in 2026 and go again in 2027.
