# Liverpool: Fans react to Bernardo Silva’s comments about the Reds’ fortune

**Liverpool look destined to win the league and are currently on course to set a record points tally if they can maintain the form that has seen them collect 24 wins from 25 league games.**

The Reds have enjoyed amazing success and have shown adaptability to beat teams throughout the season in a variety of ways, often dominating matches (as shown by their average possession, [per WhoScored](https://www.whoscored.com/Regions/252/Tournaments/2/Seasons/7811/Stages/17590/TeamStatistics/England-Premier-League-2019-2020)) but also finding last-gasp winners, with two late goals to beat Aston Villa a fine example of that.

Manchester City, by contrast, have been far from their best and defeat last time out to Tottenham summarised their efforts this term – that was their [sixth league loss](https://www.skysports.com/premier-league-table) of the campaign. Bernardo Silva’s comments, therefore, seem a little out of place.

The Portugal international told [Sky Sports](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11679/11928588/bernardo-silva-man-citys-premier-league-campaign-a-huge-disappointment) that “everything went their way” in regard to Liverpool’s luck, stating that statistically his side have had the most chances and scored the most goals. However, there is a massive 22-point gap between the two sides and the Reds have [conceded by far the least amount of goals with 15](https://www.skysports.com/premier-league-table), so the winger’s perspective is a little skewed.

Liverpool fans have certainly taken that point of view and criticised Silva as a result, with accusations that he is just being “bitter”.

> He says his team creates more chances but the bottom line is your team is unlucky and LFC is not lucky! We take our chances! Stay bitter punk!

> I like how he mentions that they create more chances, but doesn’t mention the fact that they have allowed 14 more goals. Convenient.
