Bernardo wasn’t in the mood at all and destroyed the entire club, top to bottom 👀

Bernardo Silva compared Manchester City’s rivalry with Liverpool to the newer one with Arsenal, giving Liverpool the edge due to their recent trophy successes.

When asked to compare these rivalries after City and Arsenal’s 2-2 draw on Sunday, Silva highlighted the differences, mentioning Liverpool’s recent accomplishments to subtly criticize Arsenal. He was visibly frustrated after the game, which was marked by controversy and on-field clashes.

“Only one team came to play football,” Silva remarked. “The other played to the edge of what was allowed by the referee. Unfortunately, we could only get a draw, which was the best outcome given the context of the final moments.”

He expressed his disappointment in not securing three points but praised his team’s approach: “We’re not satisfied because we wanted the win, but I’m proud of how we came to play and our attitude. I’m happy we always aim to win every game.”

Silva was also asked about the nature of these rivalries and used Liverpool’s achievements to make his point. “Why is it different? Maybe because Liverpool has already won a championship, Arsenal hasn’t,” he explained.

“Liverpool has also won a Champions League, something Arsenal hasn’t. Liverpool has always played us head-to-head to win, but our games against Arsenal haven’t been like those against Liverpool. So, yes, maybe it’s a different rivalry.”

Silva found himself in the spotlight during Sunday’s clash, especially after his involvement in the incident leading to Arsenal’s Leandro Trossard’s red card. Trossard’s second yellow came from a foul on Silva, forcing Arsenal to finish the match with ten men.

The match saw back-and-forth action. City’s Erling Haaland opened the scoring in the ninth minute, with Arsenal equalizing through a Riccardo Calafiori strike in the 22nd minute. Gabriel Magalhães put Arsenal ahead just before halftime, but City snatched a late draw when John Stones scored in the 98th minute.

Although City wasn’t satisfied with the result, Silva emphasized that the team was proud of their approach: “We’re not happy, we wanted three points, but considering how we played, we’re content.”

Silva also expressed frustration with the referee, particularly over two incidents that he felt impacted the result. One key moment was Rodri’s injury after being fouled twice in ten minutes.

He was especially upset about Arsenal’s first goal, noting that Kyle Walker was distracted by the referee, which contributed to Arsenal’s goal. Silva also felt the second goal should have been disallowed: “The second goal was one we usually defend well, but the referee allowed it.”

“What bothers me most is how UEFA talks about controlling these situations at the start of the season, but they still happen,” he concluded.
