Bernardo Silva impressed by Real Madrid's firepower after Rayo Vallecano win

Real Madrid continued their pursuit of domestic glory with a commanding 4-1 victory over Rayo Vallecano at the Santiago Bernabeu. Bernardo Silva, starting under the management of Jose Mourinho, played 69 minutes and proved pivotal in controlling midfield transitions.

The Portuguese midfielder was visibly impressed by the team’s clinical edge, noting that their ability to convert chances into goals is currently operating at an elite level. Silva emphasized that while the performance was stellar, securing the three points remains the primary objective.

We are very happy because the three points are the most important thing. Four goals, a great win, and we are very happy, especially with the first half. There is no doubt about the offensive strength and scoring ability of this team. Bernardo Silva

Reflecting on his transition to the club, the 32-year-old admitted he is still learning the nuances of his teammates' movements to ensure maximum impact. Joining a star-studded roster this summer has required adjustment, but Silva expressed contentment with his progress and the team's overall strong start to the season.

Under Mourinho’s tactical system, Silva acts as the crucial link between the defensive line and a formidable front four including Vinicius Junior, Jude Bellingham, and Kylian Mbappe. By dropping deep to build play, Silva creates the necessary fluidity to feed these attackers in space, while also contributing to the team's pressing structure defensively.

Preparation is already underway for Tuesday's trip to face Elche. Meanwhile, Ferland Mendy, Eder Militao, and Rodrygo continue to work on their individual recovery programs and were absent from the group training session.
