Silva later said: "100% definitely. I said to the players if this is not our best it is very nearly.
"The first half was one of our best this season, we were so complete. We matched them.
"Some really good moments, and good goals as well. Throughout the first half we were clearly the best team on the pitch.
"It was crucial as well the way we started the second half, two quick goals that gave us control in the end.
"Almost a year with them always scoring. It speaks about our organisation this evening, the way we stopped them. We were brave enough to stop them. It really speaks about ourselves and how we have been solid this season.
"It's been really good this season. I will not stop wanting more every single week. The reality is now we have away games, they are going to be crucial for us if we want to keep climbing the table.
"We are going to work really hard to improve on last season."
