Bernardo Silva believes Manchester City produced a stunning response to their shock loss at Wigan.

Since their quadruple bid was surprisingly derailed by the League One outfit a fortnight ago, City have won the Carabao Cup and moved within four wins of claiming the Premier League title.

They have done that by sweeping Arsenal aside 3-0 twice, both at Wembley and the Emirates Stadium, and then easing to victory over champions Chelsea at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday.

City managed just one goal against Chelsea but the scoreline flattered the Londoners, who failed to muster a single shot on target and had only 29 per cent possession.
