Have we ever scored five where Silva hasn't had an assist or been instrumental in the goal?

If that is an answer to my question I'm afraid Merlin is 5'8" even with no hair, if it's a new question that's a very naughty breakage of thread rules.

My namesake was 5' 8" Doug - I'm ashamed to say I had to break the google rule to find that out but it didn't help with Joe Hayes (pictured seated on team photos he looks roughly the same height as Don Revie who was 5'11" ) - except for this https://weedsuptomeknees.wordpress.com/tag/joe-hayes/

Gary James' list is of no help either but it does include Bobby J.

Paul Dickov 5ft 5.6
Asa Hartford 5ft 5.5
Paul Hince 5ft 5
Bobby Johnstone 5ft 5
Fred "Tiny" Fayers 5ft 4.5
Herbert "Mighty Atom" Burgess 5ft 4.25
Jimmy Hope 5ft 4.25
John McBride (1890s) 5ft 4
Sandy Turnbull 5ft 5
Mike Quigley 5ft 6
Terry Phelan 5ft 8
Georgi Kinkladze 5ft 8
Mark Ward 5ft 6
Paul Sugrue 5ft 7

Obviously I've left out the answer! :D
