Silva scores a cracker every 10 games and makes you forget how average he is 90% of the time.

Thats not true at all. He was a massive influence at Valencia, he is the type of player who is always involved in attacking play. He changed the game for City today

Why are Valencia better without him then?

[Reece]

They also appear to be a better team without David Villa.....

The bigger difference is Mata getting Silva's role and not being stuck on the left.

What a horrible prick Gallas is by the way, looking around trying to blame someone when B'ham scored. YOU WERE MARKING HIM YOU ****.

Birmingham were playing Arsenal and Gallas is at Spurs now.

Why are Valencia better without him then?

They have fantastic talents in Mata and Pablo and others but thats still a strange thing to say just 7 games into the La Liga season. Silva is a world class talent and his record of goals and assists at Valencia is superb. Also he has scored 10 goals in 42 games for Spain and he's not even a striker. He's only 24 as well.

He is 1 in 5.5 as a second striker at Valencia, that's not impressive at all.

I wouldn't say he was a second striker at Valencia. He played wide left, Villa played in the centre and Mata played wide right. Silva's job was primarily to create chances and he did that very well. 1 goal in 5 from a winger is pretty decent, considering most good strikers average 1 in 4
