David Silva - 2019/20 Performances

[Tugay One Cup]

Lads, it's Silva. He would have missed if he shot.

He brought a lot of control to proceedings once he came on.

Control would have been if he buried the chance he was gifted on a plate. If he missed I wouldn't have held it against him.

Just glad I got to witness one season (17/18) where Silva wasn’t scared to shoot and he scored some beauties as well, thinking Stoke away.

It’s the one area of his game in general that he’s lacked. Only thing that separated him from Iniesta for me.

In fairness, his scoring record for both club and country is far better than Iniesta's.

I won’t post the clip out of respect to David, but man, that chance he “missed” looks so much worse on the second viewing. I can’t believe he didn’t shoot that.

Fair enough mate, I’ve not done my research. Those big goals against Holland and Chelsea obviously skewed my view on his scoring abilities.

In your defence, David had a few of these moments over the years where he's looked really reluctant to have a pop.

Was honestly fucking disgraceful seeing him do that. So cowardly no idea what he was thinking.

‘Cowardly’?

‘Cowardly’?

Course it was, he bottled the shit and put the pressure on a team mate instead. There is no chance anyone else was in a better place to shoot than he was.
