Manchester City's Bernardo Silva eyeing football history

Bernardo Silva has said he wants to "make history" at Manchester City after helping the Premier League leaders move a step closer to an unprecedented quadruple.

Silva played a key role in keeping City's four-pronged pursuit of honours on track by sparking a thrilling fightback as Pep Guardiola's side overcome a two-goal deficit to beat Swansea City 3-2 in their FA Cup quarter-final on Saturday.

Not only did Silva score City's first goal at Swansea's Liberty Stadium but he also set up Sergio Aguero's late winner in south Wales to keep alive hopes of adding the FA Cup, Premier League and Champions League titles this season to the League Cup that is already in their trophy cabinet.

"All the players feel that this season can be special," said Silva. "Last season was special in the way we won the Premier League; this season can be special because we've already won one competition, we're still playing for three," the 24-year-old added.

"We can win three or lose all of them as well, so it will be very tough, so yeah, we know that the last month-and-a-half will be very tough.

"It will be crucial, to make something special and to try to write an important page in the history of this club, and that's what we'll try to do." In the meantime, the Portuguese midfielder was buoyed by the manner of City's victory over Swansea.

"It's very important to win these kinds of games as well, not only the games you win four or five-nil, but these games where you have to show character," explained Silva.

- 'Cannot be perfect' -
=======================
"Obviously we cannot be perfect in all moments, but so far this season, to still be in the four competitions -- three left, because one we've won already -- it's pretty good. It means we've been doing a pretty good job, but we still have to improve a few things and we'll try to do it."
"The Premier League, very tight this season with Liverpool in a great momentum as well, so no competition will be easy."
