It's a joke isn't it.de niro said:Matt the Giant said:Again Real Madrid has made their interest in him known, and would an offer come in I'm 100% sure David would listen to it. That's not saying he hates the UK and Manchester, just that he prefers Spain and Madrid. Nothing wrong with that.
Let's be honest here, and for a moment take off the blue-tinted glasses: David hasn't exactly been that magical this season has he? In fact, it's over a year now since he was in that "magical" form which made everyone in football place him amongst the best players in the world. That he was for a few months back in the late 2011 but not anywhere near that kind of status it since then.
So what we have to ask ourselves is; Is it likely that he will once again reach that level of quality here with us, or do we use this potential golden opportunity to make a lot of money and sell him to Real?
I really really can't emphasize enough how much like the man, but... he's simply not that good anymore.
He's behind the likes of Bryan Ruiz, Maloney and Lennon is the assist league and has only three goals.
Could we really afford to turn down a 30mil offer for him? And should we?
I'm beginning to think we can do better for that kind of money, but it honestly hurts me to say so.

Me a fool?
You're suggesting no way Madrid would go ahead with an offer knowing that Silva recently signed a contract extension, out of respect right?

Best players this season are Zabaleta, Clichy and Milner. We're talking about Silva here.
Not really relevant. Zab has walked away with POTY this season but part of that is down to how poorly we have been as a whole team going forward.
Every player in the PL playing at their optimum, Silva is the best player iin the league, nevermind at City.
You don't sell your best players unless you get offered stupid money or they ask for a transfer. I'd sell Silva if someone offered in the region of 60m but that's not going to happen.
This team should be built around David Silva.
In Kompany, Yaya, Silva and Aguero we have a CL winning team - a team in the mold of Barca, not the way Chelsea did it- with the right vision tactically and in the transfer market.

Aguero might be the first to go before Silva.
