Bruno Alves commented on Jan Bednarek and Thiago Silva in statements to the newspaper A Bola, while attending the MIP Programme course in Cidade do Futebol. The former central defender stated:
«I think they are different players. I really like the leadership of both, but I believe there isn't just one type of leadership, there are several types – leaders who like to be more emotional, convey more emotion, with more communication, and there are silent leaders, who lead by example, by attitude. Each has their own way of leading».
«During my time at FC Porto and throughout my life, I have always seen different leaders; there is no single way to lead. There is the same way of conveying values and what needs to be done, but it is different. In my time, there was Lucho González, who was a silent captain, leading a lot by example, attitude, gaze, and dedication, which was completely different from the way I led. I was more intense and temperamental, and the goal was the same», noted Bruno Alves.
