Albion 150 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 I think he's the best loan player we've had, even this early on. I just wish we could afford him, if there was a buy out clause, but I don't think there is one. . Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drunk and disorderly. 14,738 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 He seems a real team player to me. Always making good forward runs. Could be a class act when he clicks with his teammates. Some intelligent play when we were down to 10 men. Tracking back, drawing fouls and keeping the balll in the opposition corner to time waste.

nik2402 1,391 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 He’s a number 9. Will do very well between now and the end of the season. Start him as much as possible and let Dessers back him up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silva is every bit as skilled with the football as Tillman is plus he’s tall, strong, runs his ass off, has bite in the tackle, and is moving all the time. plymouthranger and ayrshireranger 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeparateEntityMyArse 54,343 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Love the energy he brings, and a fair amount of quality too. He changed the tempo for us last night, without that I reckon we'd have struggled for the win. MarcusDa Beasley 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, and as someone who totally thinks he should play 1 behind, he didn't actually say that. I think his exact quotes were that he wasn't a "traditional number 9" in that he likes to stay in the box and put chances away. That he likes to drop deep and link up the play. He said in his press conference this week that he is a striker. I still think his *best* position wouldn't be there, PSV fans all said the same, and it would be smarter for his career if he moved back. But it seems like he'll be playing up there for us with no other options. Leeds_Bear 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlippinEck 3,751 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Thought he did well coming on to run at a tiring Aberdeen and helped keep up the pressure. Also thought Dessers played. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
