Brings experience to Portugal
Silva has been named in Portugal's World Cup squad and heads into the tournament with Manchester City behind him after announcing he will leave the club this summer when his contract expires.
Analysis: Silva made 38 Premier League appearances this season, contributing two goals and four assists across 2,887 minutes in what proved to be his farewell campaign at the Etihad, where he spent nine years winning 19 major trophies and making 451 appearances in one of the most decorated periods in the club's history. The midfielder brings a wealth of experience at the very highest level of the game and his ability to find pockets of space, create chances and contribute both defensively and offensively makes him one of the most complete midfielders in the tournament. Silva heads into what could be his final World Cup as one of the most respected and technically gifted players in the competition, and his performances could prove decisive in how far Portugal ultimately go.
Seven corners Saturday
Silva generated two shots (zero on goal), one cross (one accurate) and seven corners in Saturday's 3-0 win versus Brentford. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 36th minute.
Analysis: Silva took the field with a great work rate Saturday, per usual, as the midfielder recorded two shots, one chance created and a cross in the attack while recording one interception and six tackles in the defense. However, it was a fifth straight league match without a goal contribution for the midfielder, remaining at six this season, hopefully getting one more this season as a nice curtain call in his final campaign with City.
