I cannot for the life of me understand how Da Silva could not get into that Wigan side? He didn’t play much for them after signing from Peterborough. Seems like we have made a great signing.
Yeah we were saying the same yesterday. Presumably just needed a run in a team that could afford to risk a few early mistakes? Anyway he’s growing into a very good player.
He has been seen to give the ball away, but you're going to see that with players like Lopes. Rob Koren gave the ball away sometimes as did Ian Ashbee and they're club legends. If Lopes was perfect he wouldn't be playing for us. I haven't seen enough of him to give a fully informed opinion, but I do already think he shines in our team. What the hell were Wigan thinking letting him go? Brilliant signing, Terry.
Some players just don't fit into teams or clubs, could just be as simple as he's happy again playing under a gaffer he knows and trusts.
