This weekend's Premier League games

[Rocket-footed kolarov]

Simply put, they have more creative players than anyone in the league. Mata, Hazzard, Marin, Moses, the Brasilian, and Sturridge. Is just more attacking verve than anyone else in the league can muster. Can they falter? Sure (we did last season for a while) but make no mistake, they are the most talented team in the league, no question!

Difference between most 'talented' and best though.

Best will be decided on the pitch. But most talented suggest's best chance. And right now.

They have more depth in creative midfield thats for sure, but we have better strikers, I would n't swap any of our 4 for their 2 plus we have Giudetti. Whilst we also have on form the most influential AM in Silva and and the best CM in YaYa.<br /><br />-- Sat Oct 20, 2012 2:06 pm --<br /><br />

Mata had been always a Striker/2nd striker, Silva isn't.

Mata plays in the 3 behind the main striker. Silva does too. They are both attacking midfielders. Of the 3 creative Spaniards in the league, Silva may be the smartest, but Carzola and Mata are superior goals threats. They have always been. Even when they all played in Spain. Why we bungled getting one of those 2 (if not the 2) still buggles my mind. On both occasions, the players were certain to move, we were looking for an attacking player, failed to get who we wanted and yet ignored the 2. What a bungle :(

I know where are they playing now, but Mata at Real Madrid and then at Valencia was a striker .
Mata has the goal in his mind and Silva doesn't. As simple as that.
Silva is more creative and always is looking for the pass.
They are different players, despite being used in similar roles in their clubs now.

Spot on, Mata loves scoring more hence why he takes Pens, see Mario Balotelli, Silva's penalites are awkard because he would prefer to pass and create rather than score, that is what he is best at, also Silva is on another level in terms of dictating the game. Comparisons are also difficult when chelsea are more attacking and have more pace in their side whilst we play a slow patient Italian possession game.

Lol, Stoke are always arse away from home (probably the worst team at the Etihad for two seasons running), but even with a Rag win that puts a lovely shine on the result :)

For a club that supports racism it doesn't surprise me that they don't have an issue with diving cheats either
