i understand pereira isn't the best and now that we have bruno he is only going to be a squad player. but why do we fans always try to mock our own players? we need squad depth too and pereira is our very own academy product. he was trying hard yesterday and now that he is not a part of our first team: let's all support our entire squad in this rebuild..
