The Nigeria international then curled in a late third for the hosts to make it three goals and two assists in his last four appearances.
“Alex has been outstanding from the first day of pre-season. He is in a happy place and he is a fantastic footballer,” Silva told the BBC.
” Last season was his best season in the Premier League and one or two months ago I said he would be even better in this one. He is really versatile and I can use him in many different positions.
“He’s a top player with the way he can assist and score goals more than ever. What a game for him and he deserved all the credit.”
