A very peaceful night as I sit down with a cup of coffee to watch the last 10 minutes of City Vs QPR at Etihad stadium after being convinced that the Red Devils were going to win their first title of their season at the Stadium of Light.
Sigh! Looks like The Citizens are going to lose after being down to QPR 2-1. Damn! Today is not my lucky day. Wait a second, it’s a Silva corner, he takes it and Oh my God! What a kick and what a goal. A stunning header from Dzeko right at the last. Atleast it’s a draw. It will be an absolute miracle if City is going to score once again. Davis Silva made me go speechless.
Just one minute away from ending the shattered dreams of City. They need to get inspiration from somewhere, oh look it’s a pass by Balotelli, Aguero on the ball and finesse shot from Sergio Kun Aguero. Who in the world thought The Citizens would score 2 last minute goals. What a come back. Really incredible! What a game it turned out to be. A club creating history after 44 years.
Now let’s get introduced to the backbone of the Sky Blues, David Silva who played a key role in reviving the come back of City with his wonderful assists. A player with inborn talent and class. At a very young age of 14, he received an offer to become a youth player at Valencia. He stayed in Valencia’s youth set-up until he was 17. He won Copa Del Rey in 2007/2008 with Valencia.
A player who makes his own team mates and opposition dumbstruck with his thrilling ball movements. Silva is a attacking midfielder and playmaker whose blend of personal creativity and unflagging team spirit which has lent so much to City’s passing game. He has caught the eye of fans all over the world. He gave a massive 37 assists this season which is truly amazing. The veteran has netted 10 goals from 71 appearances. Silva has emerged as one of the league’s finest playmakers. Carlos Tevez lauded him as “The best signing we have made.” He paved the way for Spain to the qualification towards Euro 2012 and scoring in very crucial matches giving Spain and City a new hope and inspiration. He netted a vital goal in his match against Ireland in Euro 2012 getting past all defendes with a cool ground shot.
Under the watchful eyes of Del Bosque and Mancini,the lad showcases only the best. He dominates the midfield giving a taste of sweetness to every move he makes. His balance, pace, ball control and skills have made made football critics speechless. Former City and England defender Earl Barrett said he is almost impossible to stop due to his ability to create space and Andy Cole, who mostly played for Manchester United said that Silva “is a joy to watch.”
He is one of Spain’s finest products and a man whose skills are unmatched with his loyalty. A lad commited both for his country and club.
