Is it mental to suggest that he's our best player? Just throwing it out there to see what people think? It always seems unfair on the less glamorous players that only those who create and score all the goals can be considered the best. Does Fernandinho do his job to a lesser quality than what Silva does his? I think not! Dinho is absolutely critical to our success this season, along with Silva. Our engine, our driving force, our only player that has a CL standard of pressing, our only midfielder that consistently wins the ball, practically every counter attack starts with him (and we were ONLY threatening from counter attacks last night), he's a leader, an inspiration, our top scorer, he's in everything good that we do, he must have a pass success percentage that's as good as Yaya, he always keeps the ball moving.
I'm starting to realise that maybe he is our most important player. He holds EVERYTHING together... on his own sometimes. What a beast.
I'd agree, we'd have won last night if he'd been allowed to go on the front foot rather than covering for his under-performing teammates the entire game.
