Scored for Spain and looking like he might have another in him.

Just made it 2-0 from the penalty spot, he's been absolute quality all game.

 

[razman]

Quality quality... Hope he is taken off now

 

[Manchester_lalala]

Seems on top form, I feel bad for saying he's past his best. Sorry Dave.

 

[Phil1]

I don't believe he's scored. @malg keeps telling me he can't shoot for toffee.. :-)

Hang your head in shame

Kudos to those who cheerfully admit they got it wrong and move on.

I'd say you were just trying to soften the eventual blow when he really is.
Played for City for 6 brilliant years. We are a lucky set of fans to have him as a City player.

I don't think I've ever heard anyone criticise him. I've heard some rants from United fans about City players in my time but never Silva. Always a reeverential tone for Silva. I wish he was as well respected on the pitch, always some lump kicking him

always some lump kicking him

Speaking of that.. Dembele just absolutely clattered him and sent him flying. Silva just kinda sat there, shrugged and looked at the ref.. Dembele was not pleased at the reaction.

I'd say it's because we had a manager last season who was absolute clueless and didn't know how to set a team up. He looks a different player than the one he was at the end of last season.

 

[Le Havre Oswald]

Class. Ran the show. Glad he's off now

 

[hihosilva]

Just gone off after 75min. Motm
Just brilliant tonight.

 

[Rammy Blue]

Didn't watch the game, doesn't matter, I love him.

 

[shroom]

DS looked fan-freakin'-tastic, geez ... KDB looked uninvested, pretty blah

 

[prestonibbo_mcfc]

Martinez seems to have a habit of instilling that, in his players ;-)

It's just a friendly so he can walk about,i just want them both home in one piece

Don't go there!! I'm gonna be forever mystified how we went from Pelle's first season to what we did. crazy!

Anyone hear the commentators absurd pronunciation of De Bruyne's name? De Branner it sounded like

 

[br88]

He is looking better than ever.....fitter and qucker. He seems to be finally over that persistent ankle injury.

 

[Tricky_Trev]

What position in what formation did Spain play Dave?
