David Silva here @ Wolves (H)

[Eccles Blue]

I think what we are missing here is that Spanish Dave is a quiet humble man and probably didn't want all the fuss. Great reception from the fans though.

I agree that he probably didn’t want the fuss. In fact I think it was more touching that there weren’t any banners etc, just a genuine emotion from the fans.
Round where I sit there was an audible gasp and spontaneous outburst of applause which was so much better than any artificial build up.
The crowd went wild on their own. That is what made it so special to my mind.

I thought MOTD might have shown his entrance onto pitch. Instead they shown the same shot as Sky - Dave playing Sudoku on his phone.

Hopefully our media department is doing a video for the website

Was stood by the car park when El Mago and his family walked by, with security. He is genuinely so humble and quiet. His face went red when we applauded. It certainly wasn't the Manc sunshiiiiiinnnne. Great to see him back. Testimonial?!

A brilliant footballer and a shoe-in for our all-time XI.

All the best, El Mago, it was a pleasure watching you play.

Showed it on on the Premier league foreign feed apparently. Shame.

Yes it did, I was watching it in a bar in Lanzarote and it showed all of the legend

Must admit I had been hoping he might be back for last game IF we win the league to present the trophy. Was a pity many will have missed seeing him yesterday .

That pass to Eden in the sick swan… Inject it into my veins, please.

Not only a world class footballersl, but a wonderful man. Never ever forget him traveling back and forth, when his son was born. The performances he turned in when he had all that worry about his son. Very special.

I was surprised that hardly any wolves fans acknowledged him - one of the greatest midfielders to grace the PL

I’ve never been in the situation but I think I’d clap in the reverse situation (rag player aside)
