David Silva

[RandomJ]

I thought the original title was ironic and having a dig at those who said he was finished.

Dunno why the mods changed the title but yes it was a dig at people writing him off.

For me, I'd start him on the left Wednesday, especially if PSG use Marquinhos there, who isn't the most adventurous when he plays there.

Great shout. Especially as De Bruyne is about half as efficient on the left as when he's in the middle, and Silva can put in a defensive shift when he has to.

I wouldn't mind Yaya begint fit, though, and use a similar system as we did against Kyiv away and at the Wembley against the Dippers, but with Silva in Sterling's (initial) position and De Bruyne as no. 10, with Fernandinho complementing the right wing when we're (counter)attacking.

For those of you genuine Silva admirers and there are too many to PM..

To allay any slight fears.. David was just genuinely rested yesterday. It's fantastic that KDB & Nasri are now fit and this is an option.

Bring on Tuesday night !

Only 4 assists behind his best ever season with 7 games to go. Second best in the league this season. Why oh why would Pep want to keep such a player...

This thread is likely to go from positive to negative before the second page.

He's still one of the best in the business.

Still the best creatattive midfield player we have had at City.

I thought for a moment when he was omitted yesterday WTF was gonna create within the midfield. Whenever he is not starting I immediately reduce our creative output by 80% minimum!

I read this article out to Mrs Ewing over my poached eggs, and said how wonderful hindsight is. Nasri said yesterday that he was back five weeks early and when the squads for the CL had to be announced it was clear to anyone with only one eye and partially sighted at that, that Nasri wouldn't figure in the CL. But obviously Drucker the Fucker knows best!

Edit: scrub that!

He also reports on yesterday's game and suggests that Pellers made a mistake not including Samir in the CL squad!!
