Silva yelling at Colwill so so ironic given that the Watkins goal was solely because Silva’s lack of positional discipline and terrible recovery pace.
@sports_by_stats I love Silva but his legs & age have finally caught up with him
@sports_by_stats Yes and let’s never talk about the basics of football coaching where you instruct a 6 to drop to the position when CBs do go forward (positional discipline? He’s got 23 yrs of top football lol) and never talk about Mid and Caicedo not filling that hole.
@sports_by_stats We should have won at least two games without Silva on the pitch.
@sports_by_stats He stepped to win the ball. Didn’t win it. Then let it bounce over him, while he didn’t keep goal side to the opponent. Then doesn’t have the recovery pace to slow the transition. He’s the root cause of the goal 100%
@sports_by_stats Classic Thiago Silva scapegoating. Such a casual
@sports_by_stats Silva holds on to the ball too long & when he releases it, it's already too late yet he yells & sulks that people are not positioned to receive. He needs step out of the defensive line with the ball attract the press thus freeing players to receive. Rudiger used to do it then.
@sports_by_stats Mate he is what 39 he isn't in the team for speed silva his there to teach the younger players and you can't knock a player that is as much as a legend as him he was solid for are second champions league campaign
