Branded as ‘smart’ by Kevin De Bruyne, the 29-year-old dovetailed excellently alongside Jack Grealish on the left flank.
The Portuguese international’s highlight of the game emerged in the second half, as he made an overlapping run down the flank before setting up Erling Haaland’s second goal with a delightfully lobbed assist.
As Bernardo Silva was pulling the strings against Manchester United for Manchester City, Gary Neville showered him with praise.
“Bernardo Silva is knitting everything together for City. He is causing United a real problem. United are wobbling”, he said.
The Red Devils legend also complimented Silva’s contribution to the second goal, saying, “It’s so similar to the chance he had in the first-half. Silva has been class, he stands it up at the back post.”
