GIF: David Silva stretchered off after ugly elbow from Cheickhou Kouyate

Suspected broken cheekbone for the Spaniard

Who on earth would want to hurt David Silva?

He’s great at football, seems like a sound enough lad and has a lovely head of hair. What’s not to like?

Well West Ham’s Cheickhou Kouyate doesn’t seem like the biggest fan as he caught the Spaniard during Manchester City’s 2-0 victory over the Hammers this afternoon.

It’s difficult to tell whether or not the elbow was just clumsy or intentional from the Senegal international, who received a booking, while Silva has suffered a suspected broken cheekbone.

Pick on someone your own size Cheickhou.
