EPL: Silva raves about Bassey’s display against Liverpool

Fulham manager Marco Silva has showered encomium on Calvin Bassey following the defender’s impressive display against Liverpool.

The Whites stunned the league leaders 3-2 at Craven Cottage on Sunday.

Bassey was one of Fulham’s top performers in the keenly contested encounter.

The 25-year-old marked Liverpool talisman Mohamed Salah out of the game.

Silva declared that Bassey needs to be more consistent to fulfill his potential.

“Calvin has all the skills to be a top central defender. He ticks all the boxes to be a top, top player. Now he has to be more consistent,” Silva told BBC.

The center-back has made 29 league appearances for the Cottagers this season.
