Former Oasis star Noel Gallagher has been discussing David Silva’s upcoming exit at Manchester City – but could not resist a dig at Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson.
The famous Man City fan was giving his thoughts on Silva’s 10-year career at the Etihad, which is due to come to an end after this season.
While reeling off reasons why he’s been in awe of the Spaniard, Gallagher could not resist a slight dig at Liverpool skipper Henderson.
Henderson has recently been voted as the winner of the Football Writers' Association Player of the Year award, after helping the Reds win the Premier League title.
And now Gallagher appeared to have a dig at the decision when talking about Silva’s lack of individual honours.
“It’s a bad day, it’s a dark day,” Gallagher told talkSPORT, when asked about Silva leaving Man City.
The former Oasis star continued: “He’s won one award in 10 years, and I think he’s won Player of the Month once.
“He’s been in the team of the season twice. He’s no Jordan Henderson, but that’s another thing.
“He was so sublime you almost didn’t notice he was playing, but he will be sorely missed and he’ll never be replaced.
“I wouldn’t be surprised if they retire his jersey.”
