Yawn. Although KDB did some excellent passes and ran a couple of times and had a bright red face as proof.. Silva ran the show. You might not have noticed but he did. Several MOTM performances though it has to be said. Silva, KDB, STONES, Danilo (his positioning and pressing was world class) had great games and also Mendy in the Second half was excellent.
Yes,it goes back to the night he was tricked into saying he was staying at wolfsburg,he went from ginger to strawberry blonde back to ginger then blonde,that thread was madness lolAre we still pretending he's blonde?
I mean, for me, two assists is enough to mean KDB earned his MOTM award. Silva was quiet by his standards. De Bruyne created two goals, was directly involved in Sané's first too, and it could have easily been more.
Sure Silva didnt have a very typical Silva performance but that doesnt mean he was quiet. He didnt get the assists but he contributed massively in other ways, tracking back, tackling and with that armband actually directing and leading his team mates. This was my observation watching the game at the ground and a few hours after coming home I watched the whole game again recorded from tv and draw the same conclusion.
