Predominantly right footed but gonna be a left back mmmm..

Edit - Bundasliga article says left footed - certainly uses both but seemed more comfortable on his right in the video...

The video has been mirrored. He's a right back who is left footed in the video, despite the way it looks.

Which mod's on thread title changing duty? I've been on NSC at regular intervals throughout the day and have only just found out we've signed this guy after seeing it on the BBC website!

Super excited about this one. Think he's as good as we have starting already at a bunch of positions. Deffo not a reserve (outside the matchday 18) from day one!

Think we'll pick up Tau as the 4th choice winger with potential, a HGP keeper as cheap as we can (though why not try and loan a PL youngster for a month at the right time if not using our own), but then the only other signing should be some elite level CM. If we can't then Bernardo might see time there but I'm sure the plan must be to ditch Suttner. Not been dreadful by any means just Bong stepped up so well and Suttner won't get much better at this stage by sitting in the stands.

More than 3 more in sounds ambitious to me.

So from what I can gather he can play right back, left back, centreback, defensive midfield, quarterback, wide receiver, short stop, 2nd baseman, scrum half, and can open the batting for Yorkshire.

Sounds decent.

Yep. Sounds like we're looking for a HGP defender and a winger. With a CM as a bonus.
IMHO it's been a good Summer.

wow, a Brazilian in nan Albion shirt, just itching to see that

Will cost you a lot of money to have his name printed on a shirt. It would take up the entire back

Bernardo will be his name in a similar way to Bruno (whose name is a lot longer in reality).
Last year the club charged £12 for the name regardless of the number of letters.

So who's this Fernandes da Silva Junior chap?

Welcome Bernardo to our club. So excited to have a Brazilian player in our squad. He seems to be saying he is mainly a LB in his Argus article, so that suggests we still need a CM IMHO...
