The David Silva Stand?

The countdown is on until Silva's last home game for City.

Our most decorated ever player, our record appearance holder in the PL era, and for my money, the best player ever to play for the club.

A shy, humble, outstandingly gifted family-man with a sensational haircut.

If any player has ever deserved a stand to be named after them, it's David Silva.

Gutted we're not going to be able to give him the send off he deserves in person, but I hope the club do the right thing and name a stand after him.

A mosaic on the training ground will simply not suffice.
 
No player or manager should have stands named after them as someone else always comes along. Didn't agree with Colin Bell stand either. Both great players but where do you stop.

Considering they've already commissioned a statue for Vinny, I doubt they would ever think that a mosaic would suffice for David

Well for now, stopping with the two best players in our first 125 years of history seems about right.
 
I’ll be disappointed if all he gets is a named training pitch and a lifelong seasoncard. I think there should be some kind of group statue when Aguero, the last great of that era hangs up his boots. Kompany, Silva, Yaya, Aguero Hart and Zabba and Navas all together would look great.

Nearly had me hook line and sinker there!

The Jesus Navas Ticket Office for Away Fans would be apt

A statue is an absolute must, together with Vinny, Sergio and Zaba. We can add further statues around the stadium in time but our recent heroes should be joined by some of our 80's, 90's and 00's heroes. Dunne, Lakey, Dicky the Goat and Weaver as a starting point. We can add more as they go.

Bloody hell..... How many statues do you want?
Totally against statues (apart from Frank Sidebottom's) lets stick to mosaics and pictures around the stadium.
 
Maybe we need "The David Silva Back Passage"
Then we can all slip down there and show him some loving : )
