    Silva hasn't been seen in months. A real shame, he was a great player in MLS. Can @bshredder do so digging here?

    Agree with superdave. He always showed promise, and would do some really good things, then a gust of wind would blow on him and he would be injured. It seemed to me that he had some real talent, but he was made of glass.

    Like I said a few months ago, he will never play, but should be happy to practice with great players all while still getting paid.

    So Tigres just finished their Clausura by losing to Monterrey in the first round of the playoffs. I can't find any game that Luis Silva even made the bench for.

    I don't think Luis Silva is in the LigaMX database, which is very curious.

    Thanks keller4president...

    Really appreciated it.

    So did his college coach at UCSB who asked me if I knew his whereabouts.

    I miss watching him play. Hopefully he can gain some minutes next year.

    Silva has been with Tigres' U20 team early so far this season, starting both games. He scored yesterday in Tigres U20's 1-0 win over América.

    Silva finished the 2016 Apertura with four appearances for Tigres' U20 team, scoring one goal.

    He made the bench for one Liga MX game and played in two CCL games.

    The Finns think highly of MLS:

    In addition to Real Salt Lake City, Silva has also represented the Toronto FC and DC United in the US Supreme Court.
