Manchester City fans say the same thing after Bernardo Silva nets hat-trick against Watford

Manchester City fans named Bernardo Silva as one of the most underrated players in the Premier League after he scored a hat-trick during the 8-0 rout of Watford in the Premier League.

Signed from Monaco in 2017, the Portugal international has quickly established himself as a fan favourite at the Etihad Stadium and was in fine form as City returned to winning ways following last week's Norwich defeat.

Bernardo scored City's fourth goal against Watford after just 15 minutes before scoring two in 12 minutes after the interval to complete his hat-trick - the first of his career so far.

City fans were delighted to see the playmaker scoop the match ball as City came agonisingly close to equalling Manchester United's record 9-0 Premier League victory against Ipswich.
