Manchester City playmaker Bernardo Silva has revealed that Man City will bounce back from the defeat against Arsenal.

Pep Guardiola’s side failed to get a positive result from the meeting with the North London side after Gabrielle Martinelli turned what was looking like a draw to a defeat for City.

Bernardo Silva has admitted the defeat as a major setback but has assured that the team will bounce back.

He said: “It’s a setback. It’s still the beginning. We’re far away from the end of the season. It was not the result we wanted. Against a tough opponent it is never easy to play.

“We felt the game was tough for both teams. Both are tough and organised and tense. We had a few chances in the beginning. The end it was a deflection.

“In my opinion we gave them too much time to think. We have to be more intense in the pressing. It is what it is. It’s part of football and we move onto the next one.”
