David Silva - 2016/17 performances

I'll be devestated when this fellas gone. I love watching him play.

Pep on Silva: "I was in Barcelona, Unai Emery told me, ‘David Silva is the player for you, for Barcelona.' He was so right. He’s special.”

Pep: "When I say I’m a lucky guy it’s because I was with Xavi, Iniesta and now Silva. All three are outstanding players."

My man crush, after Zabba of course.

Quite simply our best ever player. In my life time anyway. The king was well the king but this lad is gifted. With a vision I've never seen the like . I'm not sure we'll ever see again to be honest.
The fact he's given us his finest years is something I'll never forget.

It's worth every penny my S/card costs just to watch him in a City shirt, as well as his vision and passing his ability to find pockets of space in a packed midfield is unreal.

Just watched the three minutes clip on the OS. Just brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.

When Colin Bell was in the starting eleven I thought we'd never lose. We often did, but when David Silva isn't starting my heart sinks.

I don't think we will be able to play in the same way we do when he's gone as there's no direct replacement. We might see a change is style like what happened with Barca when Xavi left.

The man is quite simply a footballing God.
So glad he plays for us

Fred Eyre, who knows a thing or two about City players past and present, said if Silva had half as good a shot as Young (?) he would be the best player in the world.

One of "Nellie's" best games, two goals and an assist.
