Yeah, fair enough, think it's a combination of the price tag and my need for someone other than Iwobi or Delph to dig us out of the mire.

Point taken though ;)
Aye what I mean as well - technically not a wrong criticism, but he's essentially Anthony Gordon who absolutely HAD to play when they got him because of the money.

Loads of work to do but there's good touches and all every so often, I'd say he's very inconsistent though.
 
This game has been so frustrating. It's almost like Wolves doesn't give 2 you know what but yet when we play they we make them look world class.
Cuz we actually play them, Burnley just sit back and give it to McNeill or hoof to Weghorst. It would be the equivalent of us doing nothing but giving it to, for example, Gordon and...

Or just hoofing it to a hapless DCL...

Oh.

I think it's also due to my very limited capacity to imagine players being anything that a stereotypical type. I don't really get what he is supposed to be, he doesn't have the physicality of a target man, the pace to play off a striker or the touch to play in around and link up play.

I can imagine a Gordon who has been coached well, knuckled down, had luck with injuries and what the top of his game would look like. I struggle with Silva, but will give him the benefit of the doubt.

Well he's more of a winger imo (from the limited games I've seen really) - likes to run at players and has good technique, even if he is a bit lightweight.

Shockingly he's playing some hybrid striker role for Wolves lol
