Bernardo Silva backed up Pep Guardiola's claim he is the best player in the Premier League right now by scoring twice as Manchester City cruised to the top of the Premier League with a 3-1 win at Watford. Silva's sumptuous cushioned volley against Aston Villa in midweek earned Guardiola's glowing praise and he produced two more fine finishes to take his tally to seven goals in his last 12 Premier League games. "Thanks to Bernardo because he made me not wrong," said City boss Guardiola. "I know he's so humble, there are top players in the Premier League and he is doing so well."
In stark contrast to Manchester United's 4-1 humbling at Vicarage Road a fortnight ago that ended Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's reign, City virtually killed the match as a contest within four minutes.
Phil Foden picked out Raheem Sterling at the back post for the simplest of headers to open the scoring.
Silva slotted home from a narrow angle to double the visitors' lead and produced a stunning strike into the top corner after the break.
"The game could have been over after 15 minutes," added Guardiola, whose side took advantage of Chelsea's 3-2 defeat at West Ham to move one point clear of Liverpool at the top of the table.
