Exactly. I agree the club should be preparing to replace Komps due to his constant injury issues, we really should be showing more respect for players who gave their best years to our club.
Exactly this. Doesn't have to be blind loyalty but respect - yes. These are guys who respect the club and have given genuine commitment, not to mention loads of fantastic moments.

Spot on. Still not convinced he will feature much under Pep especially after the influx of new players in the summer. He did well yesterday but we shouldn't kid ourselves, it was De Bruyne who made the difference.
This is what I believe too, Silva will struggle next season as the intensity Pep demands could prove too much. KDB is just magical, and he was exceptional in the number ten role. His ability in front of goal takes the weight off Aguero.

Just wait until his next miss placed pass, they'll be a few on here wanting to sell him to Grimsby for a £1.00 :-)based on yesterdays performance l think this post is dead in the water,
Whilst KDB is a quality player, I'm not sure what you've seen that makes him more able to cope with this intensity I keep hearing you and Billy go on about than Silva.This is what I believe too, Silva will struggle next season as the intensity Pep demands could prove too much.

i think pep will play silva in a deeper role, pep seems to like players who are comfortable with the ball whilst under pressure, silva can retain the ball better than most id say

I've watched him for Wolfsburg, Bremen and now City, he constantly presses, and has a far better engine.
I've not seen much evidence whilst he's been with us. He has many qualities from what I've seen, but constantly pressing hasn't been one of them. Maybe that's more down to how we've played in general as no one has really busted a gut in that way this year.I've watched him for Wolfsburg, Bremen and now City, he constantly presses, and has a far better engine.
I didn't watch him much previously though so I'll take your word it was a feature of his play for Wolfsberg and Bremen.

I'm not sure what sort of intensity they are talking about either. And will Pep understand what exactly they are talking about? :P
KDB is just as bad in pressing as Silva, if one can call Silva's pressing as lacking in intensity. And mental intensity? Do enlighten me how they reach the conclusion that Silva lacks mental intensity.
