Some players not only define a team but an era. David Silva’s name will forever be synonymous with Manchester City’s rise to the top of English football. The Spaniard was signed by Roberto Mancini back in 2010, 400 appearances later he’s still the driving force behind his club’s success. Today, the 33-year-old was as unplayable as he was on his debut. At the Vitality Stadium, the 33-year-old completed 53 passes, 3 dribbles and provided 2 assists in a man of the match performance.

What goes most unnoticed about the Spaniard is his leadership qualities. Lest we forget, the old guard of Yaya Toure, Vincent Kompany are gone, leaving only him and Agüero to lead the next generation of City superstars. This is the last season we’ll see the magician in England, let’s enjoy it while we can.
