David Silva - 2016/17 performances

[We're not really here]

Billy Meredith? Frank Swift? Bert Trautmann?

All City greats, whom, in all probability, no one on here can remember playing, but we all know, were fantastic players.

Merlin is up there with them, but it's so difficult to compare stars from different eras.

My point exactly. David would be up there but it. Is impossible to compare.

 

[Prestwich_Blue]

Maybe, maybe not but he will leave this club our best ever player to date.

And statements like that is why people don't take you seriously. Even in the current era, Tevez, Toure and Aguero have been better players. And then there's the others I've seen like Bell, Summerbee, Lee & Tueart, Plus players like Peter Doherty and Billy Meredith from an earlier era.

I remember them all and I agree, whilst it's hard to pick a best ever player outright, Silva is certainly one of them.

I'd love it if any of those 3 go on emulate that achievement.

Blue, take no notice of Jack, he's either a WUM or extremely jealous of your relationship lol. There's not many City fans that won't agree that Silva has been one of our best players ever, but it would be difficult to single out just one as there's quite a few gems over the years and all with different styles and abilities

I wasn't trying to contradict you, mate. I was merely reinforcing your point.

 

[Thaksinssoldier]

It's been an absolute privilege to watch Silva all these years and he'll go down a legend for sure. I do think that Yaya will be the one who stands out from the Mancini era, but Kun and Silva will always be mentioned.

Why do people respond to jack,he is a one trick pony with nothing else to say

Yeah I know, cheers! What is true is they are all fine players!

Am I allowed to say that my grandad is regarded as one but was an absolute ****???

Emotion continues to cloud judgement..... he has been a fantastic player for us, and I'm sure David is a lovely lad, however, he doesn't make it in the top 5 of city greats..
