I do not , under almost any circumstances, want Silva to be sold.
However, if that is the price to pay for finally making it clear to all and sundry that no player is bigger than the club, or no player is indispensable, and it is the MANAGER that runs the club then, as sad and devastated as it would make me, I will accept it.
This might be the price we have to pay for getting the best manager in the world.
That said, I call bollocks. Silva is in my opinion, exactly the sort of player that Pep would want.
I cannot wait for the future. The last few years will seem like a relegation scrap compared to what is coming.
