If scoring 32 goals in your debut season and breaking the highest goal scoring record in a 38 game season doesn’t win you PFA, Dunno what does…

Inferiority complex. He is in a smaller team and he knows it.

Do Liverpool players get special treatment over individual awards?
Yes
No
Since joining the Manchester club back in 2017, Silva has won two Premier League titles, three Carabao Cups, two Community Shields and one FA Cup under manager Pep Guardiola (per Transfermarkt). Now that he has come out and revealed his disappointment in not seeing some of his teammates win individual awards as well as their plethora of domestic trophies, this has paved the way for lots of Liverpool fans to criticise the £72 million-rated man on Twitter.

sour grapes

What do we think?
It’s only normal that Silva would stick up for his teammates and want to see them win awards. He’s not exactly going to come out and claim that they don’t deserve to win any of them.
