The only time Bernardo Silva mentioned Barcelona in his revealing interview this week was in an answer about Pep Guardiola's demands in Manchester City training.
He spoke about his uncertainty over his City future, but didn't mention Barca by name - even though they are the club trying to sign him and have made no secret of the fact they want to tempt him away from the Etihad. While most of the attention will rightly surround his admission that he doesn't know where his future lies, there was plenty of interesting insight into life at City from Bernardo.
There was his admission that City's Champions League exits have taken something away from winning Premier League titles, his insistence that City players don't get the credit they deserve, and his early impressions of Erling Haaland. Maybe more significant, though, were his answers about how Guardiola keeps City's intensity so high every year.
