When Silva doesn't play, we are lacking. Yes, he had a few poor games last season but everyone has a dip in form and that's not the point anyway.

When he's not playing, we look short of ideas about how to break teams down. People will say Yaya is our most important player but he's not. Yaya is immense but Silva is the key.
Spot on!

Not only does his own performances have a direct influence on the game but other players play better too when he plays.

Yaya Toure is our single most important player. He's arguably the best midfield player of his kind in the world right now and without him we're a completely different side. He single handedly drags us forward time and time again and I love watching him play. :)
Correct Billy.
Although to many on here Barry is,some strange folk abt.
 
Re: Silva is our most important player

All this talk about the most important player is bollocks - don't you get it, its not about one player - its a team game - without the movemnent of other players, Silva/Yaya are ineffective over the course of a whiole game - one man running his guts out does win games at places like Stoke - or anywhere else for that matter - I'm tired of, when we dip slightly, there's a clamour about we are missing this person or that person - bollocks, we just didn't play well enough as a TEAM

The one thing we need right now is team mentaiity + spirit, utter believe in ourselves (its defintiely a bit shaky on that regard) and an understanding of EVERY team member on the picth what the plan is.

Having said all that, I am happy with our start, not setting anyone on fire yet, but come Christams I'd rather teams were nervously looking over their shoulders and seeing the mighty City breathing down their necks compared to us topping the league and burning out

Yaya is the best player in the Prem for me.

He's been the best player in both of his seasons in the league so far and neither time did he win Player of the Season for City or in any league awards.

This country needs to wake up to the magnificence of the man. Gnégnéri Yaya Touré; you are immense!

Yaya is the best player in the league and Is vital to everything we do!
 
Re: Silva is our most important player

I totally agree with the original post. Silva is vital to the way we play and we are not half the team without him in there. Our ball retention in dangerous areas improves and players making runs find themselves On the ball and behind defences. Yaya is a great player too when he is used properly, but he's not right as one of the holding midfielders. I'm nervous that will be the weakness that real Madrid expose if he's played there on Wednesday: he steps up leaving his partner isolated and vulnerable to pacy breaks. It will be even worse if he plays deep in a 352 like at an field. They'll pick us off.

If we go a nice solid 4231 silva might just open them up for us. Set up right and we can win this game. Go at it wrong and we will get hammered. I fucking hope the manager wasn't resting kolorov and zab to be the fullbacks. That's worse case scenario.
 
Re: Silva is our most important player

Silva is not playing at his best at the moment. I think we are easing him back in

Much of the selection and subs seems to have been based on the international games in midweek eg Dzeko and Kolarov playing two big games in a week away in Europe.
