City boss Pep Guardiola was one of many who showered the midfielder with praise after the game, which the Premier League giants won 5-0 away from home. The tactician was quoted as saying, as per One Football:
Gilberto Silva believes the player has what it takes to impress in the Premier League as he urged Arsenal to snap him up. The Brazilian said during an interview with Portuguese newspaper Record (Tuesday, February 22, Page 4):
The former Gunners midfielder added that Guardiola’s praise is an indication that Nunes is made to play at the Premier League level. Silva said:
Asked whether the Portuguese could play at Arsenal, Gilberto Silva replied:
What’s next for Arsenal?
The Gunners will continue their Premier League campaign when they welcome Wolves to the Emirates Stadium on Thursday. After that, they’ll lock horns with Watford and Leicester City in their next two games before facing Liverpool in a key clash on March 16.
As things stand, Mikel Arteta’s men are sixth in the league table with 42 points from 23 games. It’s worth noting that they’re just four points below fourth-placed Manchester United, albeit with three games in hand.
