David Silva

[Ludo]

Reports say he's back in Spain again and will miss tonight's game.

Various rumours as to why but none carry much credence, I just hope all is ok with him.

[gavin]

Good luck to him whatever it is. He wouldn't miss games unless he had to.

David Silva's Manchester City absence due to premature birth of baby son.


Silva said in an Instagram post: 'I want to thank all of you for the love and good wishes received in the last few weeks, special thanks to my team mates, the manager and all at the club for understanding my situation.

'Also I want to share with you the birth of my son Mateo, who was born extremely preterm and is fighting day by day with the help of the medical team.'

Guardiola said.

'Family is most important,' said Guardiola. 'You can see how essential David is to us but I don’t know how long he will be here.
'He is free to go [home] again if he needs to. It doesn’t matter if we get no points while he is away. Family is most important.'

To that I say well done Pep and City, proud to be a fan of such a caring club.

good stuff

[Hesperus]

Congratulations and all the best to David and family. Keep on fighting little Mateo.

[Paddy]

City is a caring club. Hope everything turns out ok for David and his family. I'll say a prayer
