David Silva - 2018/19 Performances

[FantasyIreland]

Agree but just because David Silva has been a wonderful player doesn't mean he's immune from having his performances analysed.

He doesn't deserve to be starting games on current form.

Of course not,and no he doesn't.....as long as it is critique and not abuse.The man has been exemplary in every aspect of his career with us,he deserves our utmost respect for his service.

Yaya never got this type of protection when he was past it

Because this is Manchester City. Not only do your performances on the pitch matter, but your conduct off it. Being a good person gets you extra kudos.

Dave gets more leeway because he's a class act who has never brought this club's name into disrepute. Unlike Mr Toure, whose footballing ability was class, but slung mud and toys all over the place.

Unfortunately well only know it next season.

I thought this re injury as he seemed quite fit and in great form at the beginning of the season but has tailed off since Xmas. Still not made my mind up whether his recent sluggish performaces are down to age,injuries or personal circumstances ( new born baby therefore not sleeping or training aswell).

That contol and turn to get round the defender and then set up Sterling was classic Silva.

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

Unbelievable play to set up sterling early on and then seemed to struggle a little.

Still had more talent in his little toe than all of Woys bloggers put together though.

He is not the dave of his peak,he is 33 for gods sake
Still one of our best players

 

[lightning Rodri]

He was better today I thought.

He was better today I thought.

He was. He isn't going to be vintage 28 year old Silva or last hurrah Silva from.last season. He is what Iniesta was at this age

Thought he was much better today, probably benefitted from the extra movement around him with a more dynamic lineup
