Manchester City, Bernardo Silva: “Connection with the fans is important to win trophies”

Manchester City is ready to compete for another trophy. Tomorrow Guardiola’s team will face Man’ United in the derby which is worth the FA Cup. Interviewed by the club’s official channels, the midfielder Berardo Silva exalted the fans: “In the first six months I didn’t play much but then from the second season the bond became very strong. What fans all over the world want is for the team to show passion and fight for their club. This is the thing most important. We try to represent them well because football without the fans is nothing. They understand that even when we lose we give our best.

We were eliminated from the Champions League by Real Madrid, but at the end of the match they still applauded us because they understood that we had given everything we had in our bodies to try to get through to the next round. We didn’t, but that’s football. This bond is very important for winning titles. The support is incredible and they help us so much.

My arrival in 2017? A dream come true. I couldn’t expect to win so many titles. Winning so many Premier Leagues is the most difficult thing. I couldn’t ask for more from the club, the staff, the fans. It’s a special moment for me and I couldn’t ask for more.”
