Summary:
Bernard has had a difficult past few years as he was unable to get regular first team football. He maintained a good attitude though and is on the cusp of regular first team football this year. Whenever given the chance, he has delivered on most occasions and that boils down to the fact that he has a really ideal skill set as a winger (fast, creative, good crossing and passing). He is never going to be terribly useful on the defensive end though.
Bernard broke his arm at the start of this season and will be out for a few weeks.
