Sergio or Silva?

[Bill]

I'd keep Silva over anyone.

so would i.

Keep Silva. Aguero is probably the best striker in the world at the moment but strikers come and go and as long as you provide them with service then even an average striker would do well in our team. Players like Silva are worth their weight in gold and are so tough to find.

For me I would keep Silva, but my wife and son said keep Sergio

One of the interesting things about the totally bullshit David Silva rumours is that it has prompted an awful lot of aggression and emotion. Many people see David Silva as something absolutely special, totally apart from anybody else in terms of his talent and have personally taken to him and his half-Spanish/half-Japanese attitude to things.

Sergio on the other hand is probably our most high profile player who created his own history with the Agueroooooo moment that constantly lives on even outside of City fans, to the point of people like Enes Unal mentioning it on Twitter years before signing. He is our talisman, his son Benjamin plays in our pre-Academy and despite knowing he could walk into Madrid or Barca tomorrow, he stays and vehemently tells the world that City is the place to be.

My difficult question is that if we absolutely HAD to move one of them on, which one would it be?

These rumours made me realise that if Aguero went to Real Madrid then I'd obviously be extremely disappointed but I could understand it in the grand scheme of things and would hope he goes over there and absolutely destroys the league. But if David Silva left then it would completely change my entire perception of the current squad - not in a rational way of course but Silva seems to be my impression of what an absolutely perfect footballer looks and plays like. His attitude is just tremendous and for my money he just seems to "fit" at City.

This isn't really a question about resale values, passing statistics or the like of, it's more asking that on an emotional level which one could you sacrifice to keep the other?

He aint Japanese. His Mam Eva Silva is Spanish but of Japanese descent.

Sergio will already be playing in red for Independiente de Avellaneda while David Silva still wands his magic in blue

Sorry Kun mate, much as i think you're fabulous it has to be Silva any day of the week.
Along with Colin Bell the best two players to play for City in my lifetime. Different players of course - so I'm not going to even try and separate them.
And just to say that if there is ANY truth to the rumours in the Italian press about Silva for Pogba then the vitriol from Liverpool fans over Sterling would be a mere bagatelle compared to the outrage that would engulf Txiki.

Wouldn't want to lose either obviously but there's two sides to look at. Silva is older so he wouldn't bring as much in return, but he still has a few good years left in him. Aguero is younger but a little more injury prone, also would command a world-record fee.

You can make your decision on FIFA, hopefully these two are at City for years to come.

This would be like picking my favourite child. Except that it would always be David. Sorry Sergio...
