David Silva leaves City after 10 years

i am willing to beg, steal or borrow to keep El Mago. He really can't go without us being there. It's as simple as that. Can we convince him to stay for another year? Or do we arrange a socially distanced guard of honour outside the stadium for his last game. It's going to be bad enough him going but letting him go without fanfare is just not right. Thoughts?

Get him to pregnant you ?maybe
 
It depends on where he wants to go.

I think the club might convince him to stay 6 months on the back of him not getting to say goodbye to a crowd, also we might only get 5 days rest between seasons and will need as big a squad as possible. Plus maybe he'd like to win things like the European Super Cup and Club World Cup if we win the CL.

If he goes to Japan the season runs from February to December, so maybe he could stay for the first half of the season.

MLS is the same, runs March to November.
 
David wants to go. He could have probably played for any club in the world, yet he wanted to spend his best years playing for us. Now he wants a different experience. After everything he has done for us, then he deserves to leave on his own terms. Lets win the Champions League, him lifting that trophy would be the perfect way to go, for our greatest ever player.

Perhaps an unpopular opinion but I think it's the right time for him to go, definitely.

Granted I missed the second half tonight but I personally feel his decisiveness has been sorely lacking this season overall.
 
Love him, but the plummet in form in the first half of this season and the way he's playing now after three months rest pretty much prove the physical demands of the top level are becoming too much. Could deffo go a couple of seasons starting one game every ten days plus the odd sub appearance, but I'd imagine he'd like an easier time earning more money in Asia.

Back moding the “Miserable ****s” thread for you! ;-)
 
Rolling back the years with his performances of late, however better for him and us for him to go Out at the top. Lifting the CL is what I really wish
 
As long as Bayern haven't been tapping him up for the last 3 seasons we have a chance!

Although in seriousness if he wants to go I think we should respect his wishes.
 
My favourite Blue since Colin Bell.

After his fantastic 10 years of service, I think we should respect his wishes without pressuring him. Besides, I don’t want to see the great little man decline, as he surely will.

Good post, we won't win the CL, but it would be great for that to be his last real act for us.
