Did somebody refuse to suck his cock and make you angry? stop being so precious.

Silva is fucking immense... but that defense would struggle in the championship.

And that changes the facts HOW?

David Silva told Revista de La Liga that he is revelling in the freedom he can play with at Manchester City.

Valencia sold Silva to City last summer for £24m, since when the 25-year-old has nailed down a starting place in Roberto Mancini's first XI.

Silva has started the new Premier League season strongly with two goals already to his name and he fully intends to cash in on the greater space that he is afforded in England.

"In Spain I generally always played as a support striker, towards the end I played more in the middle and I liked it," he said. "Here I've been selected to play a bit of everywhere in midfield; I've played on both wings and in the middle.

"At the moment I am playing on the wings and am enjoying the freedom that the manager has given me.

"Here it's all about speed and the direct style of play, teams are constantly looking for goals. In Spain it's slower, more possession-based and overall the game is read better.

"Also, there is a lot of pressing here and consequently more space is created for one to exploit. In Spain defending is more organised and it can be difficult to break down.

"However, it depends because you could be with a team that organises itself well but then gets countered. It can be difficult."

While City have swelled their ranks with big-name signings like Sergio Aguero and Samir Nasri, Valencia - who finished third in La Liga last season - continue to sell their best players in order to ease crippling debts.

David Villa and Raul Albiol have already departed, to Barcelona and Real Madrid respectively, and earlier this month Juan Mata followed their example by joining Chelsea.

Nevertheless, Silva believes Unai Emery - who has just completed the signing of highly-rated Spanish defender Victor Ruiz from Napoli - will still be able to mount a strong challenge in the top half of the La Liga table.

"Yes, they've signed well and have a good coach so they'll continue being up there," he reflected. "Sure, they've had to sell in order to maintain their economic status, but overall they will continue to do well.

"There are those teams that are always up there: Real Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Villarreal and Sevilla.
"There is also Atletico Madrid and, of course, Malaga who have reinforced well and they too could be in the ascendancy.

"One thing for sure - it seems to be just Real Madrid and Barcelona at the top. I hope it doesn't become just them. I'd like it to be more exciting and competitive like the English league.

"Here the fans still applaud you if you lose a game. Even when the match is finished they stay to show their support.

"In Spain it's different if you lose the ball or the other team is playing better they won't applaud you. They may even whistle or jeer.

"I believe that the culture is different. I had a great time in La Liga. I hope to return one day and enjoy it as much as I have done already."
