To me it’s more likeHe's 1b to de Bruyne's 1a in the PL so I don't see it, but yeah everyone is entitled to value things differently.
KdB
The Silvas

I agree.KDB is def better.

It is, it just doesn't seem that way but Silva does a lot of things for City that de Bruyne doesn't; he's absolutely integral to that side and I love Kante but I wouldn't take him over Silva. de Bruyne is better but it's not a significant amount.If we're talking 10s then maybe, but (given that you explicitly said we're not) he's definitely not 1b. The gap between him and KdB is not insignificant enough for a 1a/1b, and I'd also take Kante over him pretty easily.
THe gap is larger than you are insinuating.I agree.
These are obviously not perfect but I do believe this discussion lends itself to why I feel Silva is underrated still:

So that's the last 2 seasons and he's obviously started this season out in fine form. Top midfielder with de Bruyne injured most of the season, and 2nd highest only behind de Bruyne (marginally) in de Bruyne's PotY worthy season. The thing is Silva has been getting it done at that level for like a decade. He's an absolutely fantastic midfielder and a lot of what he does doesn't show up in the pure numbers, but he's so important to his teams.
They offered only 15mil. Dinamo asked for 40. In the end clubs will be sorry they didn't make a serious move earlier.It was reported in germany that Dinamo wanted double the BMG offer.
I guess we will just have to disagree cause there’s definitely 10 midfielders I take over David Silva. He’s number 3 on his team.
What would be realistic for Zagreb to get for Olmo?

Do u cheer for the Spanish NT being from BarcelonaSilva has been brutal for Spain.
Definitely a player that looks better than he is because of playing in City.
I take KdB and Bernardo silva before him.

Another player a number of clubs should have moved for, Bruno Fernandes.
2 players that are too talented for their respective league and should have been bought by a big club last summer:
Dani Olmo and Bruno Fernandes
I am very surprised (and happy) no premier league club (other than LFC) got one of them.
I don't agree.Silva has been brutal for Spain.
I guess that's fair given how good that team was and how many trophies they had won before he got there.Definitely a player that looks better than he is because of playing in City.
Fair enough.I take KdB and Bernardo silva before him.

Smart man, I love me some Sergio Ramos too.Dude, his favorite player ever is Sergio Ramos. What do you think?
I do, I'm actually against all the movement going on here.
Even then, plenty of people in favour still root for the Spanish NT teams or athletes
IDK why I asked, but I have a large group of friends that support Barca and they actively root against the Spanish NT. I was just curious.
Bruno F. BY FAR was the best player I saw this preseason. Where ever he goes he will be a good one. Hope Liverpool are in on him but (weirdly) I think they will be after bigger fish.His agent/club kept buffing the transfer price up with false interest from clubs, which resulted in no club willing to pay that price (~80 million €). United was used heavily according to all top English sources, despite not heaving real interest. From what I remember, his passing% stat "scared" a lot of teams away.
