Manchester City hasn't been performing too well this season, and many experts believe the reason lies in the team's aging squad. Bernardo Silva sharply responded to such statements.
Details: The Portuguese midfielder asked journalists specifically whom they consider as aging players. Moreover, Silva doesn't understand why, as soon as the team has a few not-so-successful months, discussions about age and insufficient level of play start to emerge.
Quote: "Tell me, which players? Name the names. These people just don't understand football. I'm 30, Kovacic is 30. You're not talking about guys who are 36. We have six or four bad months — and suddenly we've become old, not good enough?
Over the last eight seasons, we've won six Premier League titles, and now, after four weak months, we're old men? That's what I'm asking you. You asked me a question, I answered," reacted Bernardo Silva.
Currently, Manchester City is in fifth place in the standings, with 48 points after 29 rounds, trailing by one point from the fourth position.
