The Portuguese wizard has been exceptional over the past year or so. He earned himself a spot in the PFA Team of the Year last term as he was one of the most important players in Manchester City’s title win.

Fortunately for opposition managers, the secret to stopping Silva is out there. Rather than watching hours of footage or partaking in scouting missions, Premier League bosses just need to check Raheem Sterling’s Twitter to learn how to halt the Portugal international.

Unfortunately, it seems the only way to stop him is illegally, and we suspect some tickling is involved too, judging from the photo.

Sterling jokingly posted on Twitter an image of him standing over his teammate, revealing the "best way" to stop the midfield maestro.

It seems that the search for the way to legally stop Silva is still ongoing - as if you wanted to implement Sterling’s tactics you’d quickly receive a few red cards, or certainly a few funny looks.
