David Silva - 2017/18 performances

[hightimes]

I wouldn't hold my breath. He's made 1 premier league team of the season in 11/12.
Maybe he should get himself in the papers more. Might help him with personal recognition.

They certainly don't seem to reward, quiet, modest, top class professionalism.

Never a contract dispute, never a whinge. Has played while hurt. He is over his ankle issues and we are seeing him at his very best.

Consistently targeted by opposition and still goes and gets the ball and affects change.

An absolute hero and someone you'd want beside you on the field at all times

Maybe hiring another PR agent that gets him more spotlight. Then again that’s wouldnt be David.
Great guy and very underrated.

Another 2 goals for Spain,could some kind person put up the stats for Spain’s leading goal scorers think silva for a midfielder has racked up some goals..

Here you go mate.
Will almost certainly break the Spanish assist record as well by the looks of it.

Cheers that has him down in forth spot on 33 goals think that might be wrong though..

Looking at that list I forgot how good Fernando Hierro was, better than 1/3 for a centre half/defensive midfielder, brilliant!!

 

[Tricky_Trev]

That is genuinely staggering. Silva's record is nearly identical to Torres.

He doesn’t think twice when shooting for Spain for us he hesitates or looks for a different option more times than not.

The beauty of Dave......quiet,modest,professional & BRILIANT.

Ask football fans in Spain ( who sometimes can't see beyond Barca & Franco FC ) what they think of Dave.

Fantastico,El Mango,Bella Hombre.

Don't change Dave.

Why do they call him a mango?

David was playing as a forward on the right wing, much higher as in Pep's setup.
Maybe the quality of the Costa Rica defence was a reason, too.

But he really is great. Scored with his left and his right foot.
