There are games where he is unplayable and truly world class and everyone on here will sing his praises and say stuff like "who needs Silva" etc. then you get games where he just vanishes completely and get people saying stuff like 'he is no big loss". He will never be a consistent player, just have to hope the games he plays in he decides to turn up.
That's the thing, though. When Nasri isn't lighting it up, he isn't necessarily playing terribly. He still completes passes, makes sure we keep possession, and will always create at least some half chances. He consistently contributes even if you really just want him to take over.
When Silva isn't lighting it up, he is giving it away over and over again, and that gets us into trouble.

Against Stoke he covered more ground than any other City player running 5.85 miles.
This post will get ignored because nobody wants facts to get in the way of a good old fashioned bluemoan witch hunt.
Passing percentage is one thing, key passes another. I am sure Lescott's passing is right up there.
