Phil neville the rag has just given merlin the performance of the weekend , if only we had iniesta though

And yet, he's not made Garth 'I talk bollocks' Crooks' team of the week on the BBC!

Though the Mangler, YaYa and Kun do.

If Yaya scores he's in Garth Crooks team of the week. He absolutely loves the guy.

Without fear of contradiction David Silva is the best player ever in the history of the club to pull on the City shirt.

I only say he's the best of the last 40 years because I wasn't lucky enough to see Bell play. I have heard one or two supporters recently who saw both who now think Silva is our best ever player. The fact it's even being debated shows what a phenomenon Silva is.

His touch, awareness, vision, creativity and final ball are the best I've ever seen in the flesh from any player, whether they play for City or otherwise. People criticise him for his lack of goals, but his goalscoring record is similar to Zidane's for Madrid, and he's considered one of the best players in history and they play in similar positions.

Re: David Silva appreciation thread

From The Graun:

3) Silva lining helps City shine

Inevitably the focus was on Yaya Touré after he scored his first goal in the league this season to help Manchester City see off Aston Villa. Yet that should not overshadow the importance of David Silva’s performance after City had changed to a 4-3-3 formation. The opposition are always in trouble when Silva keeps popping up in those little pockets of space on the edge of the area and suddenly the Spaniard was everywhere: always probing, always thinking, always trying to find a way through. There was a brilliant moment when Vincent Kompany had the ball in Villa’s half and Silva darted across to take it off him. My ball! That is the thing about Silva. He never hides. He always wants the ball and he always takes responsibility. Other players of his type who do not contribute as much should be made to watch videos of Silva and see how he does it.

What can be said about Davild Silva that hasn't already?

Absolutely world class performance on Saturday.

Is there a better player in world football at finding space between the opponent's midfield and defence?

Re: David Silva appreciation thread

Silva needs to score more often. I think he prefers to pass rather than shoot even when given the opportunity. He is however, the best city player currently.
