David Silva - 2017/18 performances

If he could shoot, he'd be up there with Messi for me.

He gets my vote for player of the season as well.

The rock that the whole modern City team has been built on. The best footballer to ever wear the City shirt. A professional with no ego who is up there amongst the best players ever to grace the premier league.

At last this season the footballing world is starting to see what we have been seeing for years.

David Silva is Merlin.

That’s all there is to know...and the little fact that he is playing better than ever against the backdrop of one of the most stressful times any man could ever have.

Funny how in Aguero, Fernandinho and Silva we have three of the best players EVER to grace the Premier League and they can’t win a single POTY trophy between them, let alone get in the TOTY!

No bias there, eh?!

Absolutely spot on and you know what.....you are right about never being recognised. If they were performing for any other club the way they have for hs, they would be in those toty every season

Our best ever player, and perhaps in the top 20 of players to have ever played in the Premier League.

Friendly challenge - name 19 better Premier League players. Bearing in mind quality, consistency, longevity and professionalism.
I can’t think of a single 1 to better David Silva.

He can shoot alright, but it has to be teed up for his left foot. He's scored some cracking goals when he's worked it to his left foot. Just don't let him take a penalty, even with his left foot!

 

[Bluesince1979]

I literally love him

Question: Is David Silva the English football player of the decade? Has anyone else in the country been this consistently good for this long and won this much since the start of 2010?

Touré, De Bruyne, Aguero, Kane, Ozil, Hazard and countless others have enjoyed great spells of form but none of them have sustained it every season for almost the whole ten years.
