This is exactly why I voted for Ya Ya....the 45 min video on you tube of his skills and goals, just puts him ahead for me...and he always came up with the goods in the biggest games.
He had a bad 18 months under Pellers, but a lot was happening in his life...losing his brother etc.
Silva is a very very close second, and if he had 10 more goals a season in him he'd be top.
But it's the big man for me and for coming back from almost falling off a cliff to being the first name on the team sheet at his age is nothing less that miraculous !
I can understand that thinking and thats why this is a good topic. The attributes of one player may be more important than another to some people, and not so important to others . This is why majority are picking the same players but for different reasons. It's all down to how you like your football. Some like the sheer immense presence of an in form yaya. Yet some like the silky wizardry of silva, with some choosing the sheer explosive goal scoring of Aguero. I personally went for Silva as he is the one player I would have loved to have been able to play like if I was a professional footballer. I am so happy to have had him at our club, pure genius
You could add some additional details like what they were like when away from the club. When you think about Silva and the amount of years we have had him for. I don't think there has been one negative word written anywhere about him. He is an absolute legend and a model pro that every kid should look at and model themselves on.
