David Silva - 2017/18 performances

[PannickAtTheDisco]

least it's just a kick, that's promising. Looked at one point like half the team will be decimated.

 

[B\connellblue]

its a rib injury I'd say. He came off got it strapped up. Played on and then came off again.

 

[Bluwhit]

He's OK. Just a heavy knock. Did the sensible thing as a precaution. He's intelligent enough to know there are bigger games to come.

 

[Le Havre Oswald]

He's OK. Just a heavy knock. Did the sensible thing as a precaution. He's intelligent enough to know there are bigger games to come.

cheers

Great news! Had hoped you'd be on before I hit the pillow.

So glad it's nothing serious.

Bloody hell, that’s ridiculous:

And the one draw was playing with 10 ten men for half a game that we dominated and should’ve won.

 

[SebastianBlue]

Bloody hell, that’s ridiculous:

JFC...

But Stan Cockymore says he shouldn’t be considered one of the Premier League’s best ever, so those stats count for not.

Music to my ears Bluewhit.

Always imformative when you come on the forum as we don't need to speculate anymore over our star performer.

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Bloody hell, that’s ridiculous:

3 more games and he's an invincible.

Thanks. I thought he'd done a rib as well.

You’re heaven sent on here mate!

Well that’s made my day !
Hope he’s back as soon as.

 

[Manc Born & Bred]

Came off holding his ribs so why someone thought it looked like a groin problem is beyond me.

 

[Plain Speaking]

Thanks. I thought he'd done a rib as well.

He got strapped up pretty near me, the strapping was around his hip, but he ripped it off after a few minutes. With @Bluwhit's comments I would say bruised hip bone, (they can be very painful).

David Silva vs Ozil Top 10 Assists :)

 

[KCblue]

Wouldn't risk him for the Burnley game. Our next game after that isn't until the 10th so we should just let him rest until then IMO.

Mine, as well.

This is very much a “lose the battle, win the war” situation, though, we’ll still win the battle. ;-)

 

[Bluesince1979]

The players we have, the squad we have, i dont think players are taking any risks with little knocks.
I said on Weds night that if Silva has even a slight knock , coming off for Gungodan isnt the biggest disaster. No point playing on and risking further injury when the quality replacement is their.

Intelligent players seeing the bigger picture

 

[bellsouth]

The record we have when he plays though, isn't it worth the small risk of playing him? Apparently we heard the knock wasn't so bad, so why not play him, then send him off home for a few days rest and family time, back around Wednesday to prepare for Leicester?
