Bernardo Silva delighted with Manchester City response

Midfielder Bernardo Silva says that he has been delighted with Manchester City's response to last month's FA Cup defeat to Wigan Athletic.

Midfielder Bernardo Silva has claimed that Manchester City have given "a very good answer" to losing to Wigan Athletic in the FA Cup fifth round.

Last month, the League One side denied City the chance to win the quadruple but since the defeat to the Latics, Pep Guardiola's team have recorded back-to-back wins over Arsenal and a narrow success over Chelsea.

Silva netted the only goal of the game as City prevailed against the Blues on Sunday afternoon, and the Portuguese international has praised his team for coming through a testing period of the campaign.

The 23-year-old is quoted by the Daily Mail as saying: "When you lose sometimes it is more difficult but we gave a very good answer, a very good response and won three games against two great teams.

"We want to think game by game but, of course, it means a lot for us to arrive in March and to be so close to winning the title. We will do our best to keep winning games."

City currently sit 18 points clear at the top of the top-flight standings.
