Leicester City defender Conor Coady says Manchester City midfielder Bernardo Silva is currently the best player in the Premier League.
The Portugal international put in another standout performance in Liverpool’s 1-1 draw against Silva last weekend, Coady said.”The most important thing is what kind of player you are. I think, to be honest, it’s hard to argue with him [he’s the best in the league].
They all have different names and are called famous players, but I think their consistency also makes them stand out. “You know what you’re going to get from him every game.” Coady, who has played against Silva on several occasions for Wolves and Everton, said the fact that Silva is a very versatile player who can play in many games is often overlooked. Other locations:”You look at Bernardo Silva and think, ‘Oh, he’s a number 10’. He’s far from that.
As I said before, there were games against him where he took the ball away from the goalkeeper. “I think I have both on and off the ball because I’m sitting next to the goalkeeper and I’m getting the ball,” he said. With Kevin De Bruyne sidelined since the opening game of the season with a hamstring injury, Silva has stepped into the role. A key player for the team. It’s his duty.The 29-year-old has featured in big games against Liverpool, Manchester United and Chelsea this season and will be expected to do the same against Tottenham this weekend.
The midfielder was left stunned in August when it was announced he had signed a new three-year contract, with speculation he would leave the Etihad. Given his performances this season, fans are delighted that the Portuguese star has decided to stay.
