# Wolves: Fans blast Fabio Silva versus Brighton

**Many Wolves fans have been left blasting the display of Fabio Silva in his side’s 3-3 draw versus Brighton in the Premier League.**

The Portugal U19 international did not have the best of games for Nuno Espirito Santo’s team as they were held to a frustrating draw having been 3-1 up at half-time.

He failed to get on the scoresheet yet again for the Molineux faithful, which has meant that he has only managed to find the back of the net a mere three times in what is now 14 matches in all competitions so far in the 2020/21 term ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/fabio-silva/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/505653/plus/0?saison=2020&verein=&liga=&wettbewerb=&pos=&trainer_id=)).

The 18-year-old lost out on five of his duels in the clash and also failed to register a single shot on target or dribble, earning him a quite measly 6.5 overall rating on [Sofascore](https://www.sofascore.com/brighton-and-hove-albion-wolverhampton/dsF).

He also only managed a mere 31 touches of the ball, and given that he lost possession of it 12 times ([Sofascore](https://www.sofascore.com/brighton-and-hove-albion-wolverhampton/dsF)), he lost the ball around every 2.5 touches on average.

### Wolves fan reaction to Silva display

These Wanderers fans blasted his performance on Twitter, with one WWFC supporter branding the striker as a ‘lost chicken’:
