David Silva

[Ancient Citizen]

He'd be one of the best players in the world if he was at Arsenal or Barca.

Very true, but if at either of those clubs he would be with a manager that plays pass and move atacking football, we have the palyers to play that way but so far RM wants us to control possession and play the slow build up, we have the skill, pace, and ability to destroy teams, and while i accept that a strong defence, then a strong spine is the way to succeed, I still want a big target man up top.
(& possible RM will when he has a full compliment of his players will try and play a better style of fotball, I remain to be convinced.)

Very true, this, though maybe we suit him.

Also surely Barcelona play slow possession football?

 

[JoeMercer'sWay]

he's got something about him, a star quality, oozes class on the ball.

I think we've got our Kinky in a top quality side now.

I think David Silva was a great buy and will be a great player for this club . I think he still needs to adapt to life in the league but you can watch him getting better . I think he should be playing in the hole behind tevez and AJ on the wings with milner and drop one of the holding players . then you will have one of the most talented , youthful frontlines around

Give Silva another 5 or 6 weeks and he'll be ripping up trees if today is anything to go on.

I just can't wait to see what trio of balotelli, tevez and silva would be like. Fast and deadly, before you know it, the balls in the back of the net!

I have to say, the way he plays football really turns me on. He's overtaking Adam Johnson in the man-crush league table.

 

[AdamManCity]

Can he take freekicks?

 

[Freestyler]

absolutely class today again, he's settling in very well, him and tevez just bounce off each other.

he's a starter for me everyweek, simple as.

David Silva has so much more to his game than Robinho.

Absolute gem of a player if he can keep improving his game. He links up with Carlito brilliantly. Keep up the good work David.

Agreed: DS lets his feet do the talking, and has a first class attitude; that is why he is a better player than Robinho will ever be....
