It wasnt a good day for us. I would like to apologise to everyone for the defeat, especially to my teammates who believe in me and support me every day.

I take full responsibility. Lets gather strength and come back stronger.

Silva has been recognized as a complete defender by his peers and critics. He has been described as a consistent defender, without any flaws, and someone who can lead any defence.

A leader from the back, Silvas play has led him to be compared to legendary Italian defender Franco Baresi.

Baresi, regarded as one of the greatest defenders in football history, has gone on record to state that Silva is the defender who most resembles him, and said in June 2012 that Silva was his heir.
