Bernardo Silva brutally rips into Arsenal as he explains the difference between them and Liverpool

Bernardo Silva slammed Arsenal following their draw against Manchester City and ruthlessly explained the difference between them and Liverpool.

Man City and Arsenal played out a dramatic draw as John Stones scored a last-minute goal in Sunday's Premier League meeting.

The Gunners, who were reduced to 10 men just before the break following Leandro Trossard's dismissal, were leading 2-1 at the time of the 98th minute equaliser.

The Blues drop points for the first time in their defence of the league title but remain top of the table - with 13 points on the board.

Speaking after the game, Silva said his side entered the game trying to win the match as he took aim at Arsenal's tactics while bringing up Liverpool, who have had many battles with Pep Guardiola's team over the years.

He referenced Liverpool's Premier League and Champions League triumphs when explaining the difference between them and the Gunners.

"Perhaps because Liverpool has already won the Premier League and Arsenal hasn’t. Liverpool, at that time, had also won a Champions League, while Arsenal hasn’t. Liverpool always faced us head-on, to win matches," he explained. "From that perspective, our games against Arsenal haven’t been like the matches against Liverpool were, and still are!"

On his side's clash against Arsenal, Silva added: "Only on team came to play football. The other came to play to the limits of what was possible to do and allowed by the referee, unfortunately. But at the end we got a draw, we're not happy as we wanted the three points! Personally I'm happy with the way we came to play and faced the game. I'm glad we always enter the pitch to try to win every match!"

The Portuguese continued: "In the first action we realised what was going to happen [vs Arsenal]. We had a player injured after they sent him to the ground twice in 10 minutes.

"We had a goal conceded after the referee called our captain and then didn't allow him to recover his position. The second goal is already their usual block to our keeper, which was allowed by the referee.

"Then the referee allowed a sequence of time-wasting events. The thing that bothers me most is having a lot of meetings with the FA at the beginning of each season. They tell us they will control this kind of situation and will stop them, but in the end, it doesn't have any worth. They say a lot but nothing happens."
