Man City star Bernardo Silva fumes at “completely crazy” football schedule

September 6, 2024 Ligue 1

Man City star Bernardo Silva has expressed his frustrations at the modern football schedule and is not happy with the new Champions League format.

The midfielder is currently away with the Portugal national team with Roberto Martinez’s team beating Croatia on Thursday night before playing Scotland on Sunday as part of their UEFA Nations League commitments during the current international break.

This comes just weeks after the Premier League getting underway and it is the first time European nations will compete against each other since Euro 2024 this summer.

It has been a crazy few months for footballers and Silva is one man not happy with the modern schedule and the amount of games players are being asked to play.

Speaking to Record, the Man City talent has labelled the modern schedule as “completely crazy” and has expressed his concern regarding the new Champions League format.

“The schedule is completely crazy. We’ve just received the news that we only have one day off for the English League Cup game,” the 30-year-old said via Fabrizio Romano. “We’ll probably play every three days for months. It’s been absolutely absurd.

“In the Champions League, if you don’t qualify for the round of 16 you still have to play two more games. It’s true that the squads are bigger, but I’m not going to say that it’s easy.

“It hasn’t been easy. I spend very little time with my family and friends. The amount of games we’re subjected to is absolutely absurd.”
