So you are actually doing what I suspected this morning. Basing this whole silly Silva opinion on one quiet performance last night that included one mish*t corner 
Talk about knee jerk

I've no idea why you'd think that

Strawman arguments are the sign of somebody rattled by uncomfortable truths

A straw man argument? 
Yeah like me saying Silva is good because he can do the basics like kick the ball....apparently

Sid is never serious. He's a caricature. Even Trap Junior is occasionally serious, ffs.

You offered the basics as the reason for why he was great

That's like the salesman for the Carnivale television in The Simpsons who espoused its desirable features, such as the turn on/turn off button and the "plug in" feature

You misread me

I may have a distinctive posting style but behind it I'm as serious as cancer when I say that Silva is a chancer

I didn’t. More straw man. 
As I explained three posts ago, the skills I mentioned Silva having are not basic

We as a nation have had one player who’s had a modicum of these skills in the last decade or more, and lauded him ridiculously even though he never got near the top of the club game

A raffle, was it?

What did he do tonight?

Must have been the wrong Silva they gave it to

David Silva is, and has been a top class midfield player for years. Was he ever as good as Inesta, Xavi etc. is a totally different question (not at their level imo), but he's clearly a quality player.

Has Pogba more PFA team of the year appearances than him now? LOL

Oh is it Aguero who up to last year had no appearances in it that I was thinking of so?
