Bernardo Silva has claimed Arsenal remind him of Manchester City five years ago.
And the Portuguese warned that Arsenal are still firmly in the title race and it will go “until the end” - even after City reclaimed top spot in the Premier League. Pep Guardiola’s incredible era of success began with the 2017/18 title and City marched on to glory in three of the next four seasons.
They look red-hot favourites to do it again after overhauling Arsenal at the top of the table by beating their nearest challengers at the Emirates. Arsenal are level on points and still have a game in hand, but Silva sees similarities in Mikel Arteta’s men compared to where City were a few seasons back.
