The thread itself was started out of spite. Somehow the OP concluded some pro-DeBryune fan took a shot at Silva, with the similarly named thread, so he feels the need to hit back.
It's all quite amusing really. Don't get me wrong. I like this thread, and think it's a legimate question to ask about our players. But the disingenuity is s bit off putting.
You really don't need to make up fake stories to support your emotional wishes. Calling DeBryune 'diabilical' for the first 25 minutes of a game he was rated Motm in, is laughable.
Silva and DeBryune have slightly different skill sets, but both can play the10 just fine.
Lol! You've used this "emotional" line 4 times now, I don't think it's as funny or clever a line as you appear to think it is.
You could probably get away with sneaking it out once, but 4 times you're now becoming like the lonely guy in the pub who repeatedly says "Computer says no" or "Am I bovvered" in a desperate attempt to fit in.
The irony of your "emotional" line is that I and
@schfc6 have both given detailed posts, based on the intricacies of football as to why De Bruyne isn't suited to being a playmaker for Manchester City.
If you and that other guy don't understand it, that's ok. It's a sign of intelligence to hold your hands up and say you don't understand, to ask for someone to explain it to you, ask questions.
But it's a sign of fear and embarassment when you don't understand something and instead of asking questions you try to come out on the offensive.
Mine and Schfc's analysis of Silva and De Bruyne is based on watching and playing football for years and understanding how it works, understanding how City play, how Silva plays. It's the opposite of emotional, it's a cold tactical analysis. If you don't understand, that's ok, but don't try and come out on the offensive because it just makes you look silly.
