Manchester City midfielder Bernardo Silva has promised fans that the team will do everything they can to retain their Premier League crown this season, according to a report on the Daily Mail.
The Portuguese fired in City’s second goal at the Emirates to wrap up a convincing victory and he believes that the players are hungrier than ever to win the title.
City were an irresistible force last season and broke numerous records, which has had plenty of fans and pundits questioning whether they have the appetite to do it all over again this campaign.
But Bernardo hopes that their victory in London over Unai Emery’s side proves that they want to keep the title at the Etihad.
After the victory, he said:
We have started the season well and knew we were going to play against a very strong team at a difficult stadium but we did it, it was a very good game for us, a well-deserved win.
We want to (win the league), knowing we are playing against a lot of tough teams and that it won’t be easy.
The opponents now know what to expect from us but we will try and do it again, work very hard to win each game week after week and we will see what happens.
City will play their first home game of the season this weekend against Huddersfield Town where they are heavy favourites to win all three points.
