David Silva retires from football (pg13)

[cheekybids]

Gutted for him, but hopefully not the end of his career. Was hoping to take a trip to Sociedad to see him in action this season.

This was one of my plans, it’s a bucket list destination to see my all time favourite.

I was hoping he'd be in City's group for the CL and he could get a massive ovation.

 

[Keeper!]

Tragedy for the guy and sadly probably the end of a truly magnificent career.

Good luck for a full and speedy recovery.

 

[Worsleyweb]

Had a great career and what a player. Could be the end for him but don’t write him off yet.

 

[CarlosTevez'sEnglishTutor]

That's fucking wank news. I was hoping to draw Real Soceidad in the group, so he can have that testimonial he was robbed of.

 

[kaz7]

Oh no , shame for him , hope he gets back to playing , if he decides he wants to carry on

 

[Blueboy73]

Good Luck ElMago,
Here's hoping for a full recovery

 

[TonyColemansbagofapples]

Terrible news, wishing you a full and speedy recovery.

 

[Zabbasbeard]

Absolutely gutted. All the bestvfor a speedy recovery El Mago.

Reports coming out that he's set to retire. Sad way to end if true.

 

[super_city_si]

If its his right leg he wont miss a beat ;)

hope he makes a full recovery and he gets to end his majestic career on his own terms.

edit: just saw above. Dont be sad its over. Be happy it happened. Glorious player and man.

 

[RayCTID]

That is horrible news but what a career.

We are so lucky to have had him - he glided around the pitch like no one else we have ever seen - allergic to panic and so so gifted - my grandson thinks he is called “the great David Silva” and that’s the way it will always be - quite simply a genius- thanks Dave and good luck in the future

 

[Asa's left peg]

Sergio's heart and now this. Really sad, but a great career and the love of most fans. His career stats will never tell the full story of his career. Had to be seen to be believed. Thanks for the memories Spanish Dave. See you at walking football.

 

[MCFC1993]

Gutted he's retiring.

When he's fit next summer we need an Aguero XI v Silva XI. Aguero can take the ceremonial kick off.

We were robbed of proper send offs for the pair of them.


Can he come under Pep's wing and coach here?

 

[pudge]

Give him a one day contract before he does

 

[MCFC1993]

Give him a one day contract before he does

Yeah that'd be great.

 

[deano ou812]

Fuck sake awful way for such a player to suddenly end his career,yes David was in the twilight of his career but still had a lot to offer,and as some have posted if we had of got sociedad in the champions league it would have been a fitting way to give him one final send off what a fucking player,still my favourite and probably level with Colin Bell as City’s greatest players,well that’s my opinion anyhow ..

When he had the ball at his feet he had the ability to slow time down.
