After watching todays game,It got me thinking is there anyone who plays a similar game and position to David Silva who is better in Europe,because I would sure like to see him,because that man is and I know the term is used lightly nowadays absolute world class.I appreciate it was only a friendly but combined with last seasons performances I have come to the conclusion that he is the most gifted player I have ever seen in a City shirt and that goes back many years.

The way that man spots a pass is scarey,and if Arsenal rate Fabregas at 35-40 million then add another 10 million on for Silva,because to me he is a superior player.The only worrying bit for me is that a large majority of our play going forward goes through Silva and when he doesn't play we seem to struggle creating much.I know we are still in the market for more players and we do need them.

It is a team game,but along with Kompany he as to be the most important player in the team.I don't normally get to carried away with individual players,but this guy gets me excited everytime he gets the ball.And he seems to be getting better.
 
I wouldn't put him as being superior to Fabregas just yet, but we're definitely approaching not being able to slide a piece of paper between the two. As for us struggling to create when he isn't playing, it is a big worry. Thing is Arsenal have the same problem when Fab isn't playing. It's just a general drawback of having one insanely talented midfielder who you can just let run the game.

Providing no-one tries to prematurely end his season with a stupid tackle, I can certainly see him being the player of the year. Writers player of the year too. Oh and Ballon D'or nominee ;)
 
I always thought that Xavi was the best in the world but Silva to me looks more technically gifted surely he must be up there.<br /><br />-- Sun Jul 31, 2011 9:06 pm --<br /><br />Sorry adrianr I respect your views,but I really believe hes a better player than Fabregas,your probably right there not much between them but for me it's Silva

I agree. We do need a plan B though so this is where Mancini and the rest of the backroom staff will earn their crust. I think other players can create, but yes, I'm not sure I would swap anyone for Silva right now.
 
Iniesta, Xavi and Fabregas are all better.

I love Silva though.

Silva is not better than Fabregas.

Have you seen Fabregas's assists and goal stats over the last couple of seasons? For someone who is only 24, and playing in a Arsenal team that is going backwards, his stats are incredible.

Silva has to score more goals for me.<br /><br />-- Sun Jul 31, 2011 9:19 pm --<br /><br />Iniesta is the best in Silva positions in the world.
