Bernardo Silva sends title race warning to Arsenal after Man City march on

Bernardo Silva warned Arsenal that Manchester City have now clicked into gear heading into the final stage of the season.

City secured a draw with Bayern Munich in Germany to seal a 4-1 win on aggregate in the Champions League quarter-finals as they booked a last-four clash with defending champions Real Madrid.

Joshua Kimmich registered Bayern’s first goal of the tie with a late penalty but the result was already beyond doubt with City setting up a replay of last year’s semi-final against holders Real Madrid.

Pep Guardiola’s side now turn their focus to an FA Cup semi-final against Sheffield United this weekend, before Arsenal travel to the Etihad next week for a match that could well decide where the Premier League title ends up this season.

The treble remains on the cards for City, and Silva believes he and his team-mates are now in a rhythm that they have not previously had this campaign.

“We struggled until February because we couldn’t get in that usual run we had before of winning 10-15 games in a row but now we are very consistent,” Silva told BT Sport.

“We feel we have a chance in every competition and we are going for them.”

On the semi-final clash against Real Madrid, he added: “We always go for it but we feel the team is very, very confident at the minute. I think we are going through.”
