Alexis Sanchez

[SWP's back]

He quite obviously has from the form he showed when he was 27/28/29.

Do people not understand that athletes drop off as they get older?

He quite obviously fucking hasn't as every single City fan that is replying to you has stated.

Silva doesn't run around at 100mph like Sane. He's never had pace to lose. His form is as good as it's ever been and he hasn't dropped off.

That's just confirmed it, going with the stats and the MOTD highlights.

The season before last Silva was being written off as finished while injured by some on here, while KDB was being lauded as the second coming of Christ.

CHICKEN DINNER!

But based on last season, you'll struggle to find a single poster who thought KDB was better than Silva, irrespective of the "numbers".

You've clearly not been watching our games if you think Silva was an "attacker" last seaaon. He played in midfield for 90% of the time.

Also, judging him by assists and goals is actually laughable in it's misunderstanding of football. Check out Zidane's stats at Madrid. Check out Xavi and Iniesta's at Barca. They're similar / worse to Silva's at City. Then go and ask Madrid and Barca fans what they thought of those players.

Judge players on performances, not Fantasy Football stats and MOTD highlights.

He meant young player but even big nose got nominated last season for finishing 6th and scoring less league goals than aguero

Oh that's fair enough, and I agree Ibra shouldn't have been nominated at all. Mane and KDB deserved spots in there.

Okay tell me this, if David Silva was so good why didn't he get nominated for the PFA player of the year award?

He never has been.

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

Ozil won our player of the year award in 15/16 and was irrelevant after January? It means nothing who wins the individual award.

Okay tell me this, if David Silva was so good why didn't he get nominated for the PFA player of the year award?

You're on thin Ice there chap. Silva has been out-and-out one of the best midfield play makers of the last 5 or 6 seasons, despite getting kicked up and down the pitch most games. He hasn't been nominated because he plays for City. If he'd been at the Scum/Arse/Dippers/Chelski then he would have multiple POTS nominations and probably won it more than once.

 

[SWP's back]

Thank you!

You've just agreed with the proverbial fart in lift of City fans on here.

 

[sandbachblue]

FFS. Take this somewhere else. What's it doing in a Sanchez transfer thread?

 

[SWP's back]

What are you talking about Marvin?

That should be a sticky thread.

 

[GunnerGer]

Feck sake RoslerThe2nd, you've gone and done it now.

You were AwayDay as well weren't you?

 

[SWP's back]

Walker? The last 5 winners have been -

Kante
Mahrez
Hazard
Suarez
Bale

All worthy winners.

Young player of the year he meant.

City players never get recognition in the end of season league awards.
