I'd argue that there's been many great players but Dave surpasses them.

I never thought anybody would surpass the King , but he is the best player I have ever seen.

You can put 4 defenders on him and he'll still be untouchable in possession. Plus, he's been putting in tackles and tracking back more than you'd ever expect from you main creative player

Sane for me, he never stops wanting to attack and it's infectious. Bit of a dull game mind.

Only one choice today.The guy is a magician and just ran the show. Such control, such awareness, fantastic first touch., supreb weight in his passing, works damn hard too and gets stuck in. When he isn't there you really know about it.

Interesting that so many went with Silva when he was so poor (by his lofty standards) prior to opening goal.

Went for Yaya

Went for Sane. What a player we have on our hands if he continues at this rate. Does what we have always wanted from our wingers and actually runs at the opposition

True and Yaya was very good through that period, when many others in the team looked edgy.
Yaya faded a bit as the energy levels went in the second half and Silva just got stronger and stronger.
I thought he really ran the show.

Not complaining about either of their performances TBH.
