Player Topic: David Silva (2015/16)

With the VK disagreement over playing for country after recovering from an injury, I would expect MP to try and beat Villa without him. So he doesn't play in the international break.

They will have a new manager. I hope it doesn't come back to bite us.

Not necessarily - may take them a week or two.

Reports in France suggest Remi Garde is set to be named as Villa gaffer this week.

Garde has just had his appointment confirmed by Villa. His first proper match will be against us. There is normally a lift with a new manager and his selection and tactics may be harder to anticipate. Villa have several ex-city players who will be well up for the game. Hopefully top v bottom we should do it without Silva, but we must be ruthless.

Yeah, no.

 

[Bluwhit]

It's a no for Villa.

It's a no for Villa.

On the brightside no chance of being called up by Spain.

Thank you for the up-date.

Is there a further issue or are we just being safe, I assume we're waiting until after international break and hopefully he will be fit for Liverpool

Yup, although I would have liked him to have a few minutes at Villa under his belt before Liverpool. Assuming he'll be back in training by then that is.

 

[Plain Speaking]

It's a no for Villa.

Hopefully will save him getting a kicking from our PL rivals in the England Spain friendly.

Really? You think they care? Remember Kompany for Belgium. If their Doc says the player is OK ,and they want him, then he will play. They have to have no head these days it's all wrong. Pelle is right, if they don't play for their club then they shouldn't play for the National team. At the moment it only works in favour of the National teams.
