David Silva leaves City after 10 years

[bluealf]

Perhaps an unpopular opinion but I think it's the right time for him to go, definitely.

Granted I missed the second half tonight but I personally feel his decisiveness has been sorely lacking this season overall.

unfortunately, this is the truth, as sad as it is, it really is time, he knows it and that is why he is leaving, if David actually thought he could cut it in the prem/champs league for another 2 years he would be staying.

We will see the old sparkle in games like last night and it dims the memory of the poorer games he has had recently or this season.

He will leave this club as probably the best footballer we have had wearing blue.

Did he play in the madrid and dipper games? I can't remember

No, because he's no longer suitable or quick enough for those type of games

He will be sorely missed and we haven't had the chance to give him a good send off!

He is so loved by everyone at the club.

Get him to take a mentoring come cover role, but give him enough games to keep him happy. Maybe consider a reversal with Phil?

He clearly still has got it against a lot of teams

This week would be perfect if it was topped off with him signing a 1 year extension.

Would love to give him a proper send off. Our greatest ever player

He's having a nice farewell but the past 2 seasons have shown it's the right time to move on.

Owes us nothing, if he feels the time is right for him and his family no pressure from me.

Just hope we pack him off with a champions league medal.

I wish but never going to happen :(

good luck Dave a true legend and professional.

Totally agree, he owes us absolutely nothing, he has been true to us and given his all.

I think a petition would show just how appreciated he is, but it would be without pressure on him. If he wants to leave then he goes with everyone's blessing and best wishes, but need to show him how loved he is.

I think he would be a brilliant mentor for Phil and the younger kids.

I hope he goes home to Las Palmas if he does leave us and spends all his time with his family.

Would love David to stay for 1 more year. But it is down to him.

Since the return he's been magnificent.
