Silva learning from Tevez?

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

no i'm just saying its un silva like thats all I mean if kompany shook his head at being subbed wouldn't you think the same?

It is unlike him that's true. He's such a professional. It's bound to happen to everyone now and again, that feeling that they just want to be left on to keep playing, maybe create a goal.

I would think that Silva thought he had a goal or an assist up his sleeve in the next couple of minutes before getting the hook. Best to save it for Saturday, David.

You'll probably find that he was just shocked that it was him and not Dzeko..... now i like Dzeko but he was awful against spurs, and his first touch really really needs sorting out!

Silva was playing a blinder and no player likes being taken off when they're playing so well.

I don't think he realises just yet how much effort is going to be needed in the final. He has to work far harder here than he did in Spain.

You're gaining form with your nitpicking, well done.

THIS.

To be honest when Tevez came on Yaya or Dzeko was the more likely player to make way for Tevez for me. So you can see why he was a bit pissed off but it is nice to see players like him who arent happy when being taken off. I dont mind this as it shows he wants to play all the time. Same with Milner a few weeks ago nothing wrong with it.

I didn't notice this, will watch the highlights on the OS now. Only thing I noticed at the game was that he didn't clap the fans for our standing ovation. Didn't see him say anything to Mancini, looked fine to me.
