Who is more effective for City? Silva or De Jong - Both.
Who would you want in your team? Silva or De Jong - Silva, I already said that.
Who has better all round footballing ability? Silva or De Jong - Silva

Answer those questions, I fucking dare you

Only one of those questions are relevant to an actual midfielder, and thats the first one. The other two come down to actual players, it has nothing to do with the fact they are midfielders.

The actual players are actual midfielders believe it or not

You're not intelligent, just remember that

Oh my god you're actually pushing it

Silva has more ability and overall better attributes to Muamba and De jong as a player and as a frickin midfielder. However there's also the case of who's more effective in their team and who you'd want in your team, again you'll find it's Silva all day every fucking day.

Would you like to pretend to be clever again or is that it?

Comparing midfielders, you have to take into account their jobs for the team, could Silva do what De Jong does no, could De Jong do what Silva does? No. Therefore as midfielders (which you said) they are not comparable. As players (you never said) people would take Silva over de Jong.

Who is more effective for City? Silva or De Jong
Who would you want in your team? Silva or De Jong
Who has better all round footballing ability? Silva or De Jong

I don't see why it's so hard to understand what he is trying to say.

As for Silva being the best, I'm going to need more than one good season before I call him that.

I understand what he's trying to say, he's trying to state that you can't compare them because they do different roles. However the difference in quality and effectiveness between De Jong and Silva is so big that they are easily comparable

It's like talking to Arise

Put Silva on front of the back four and let him tackle, hassle and chase the ball like De Jong, fuckin hell its like talking to a brick wall.

Both have different roles, both are different players. If he wants to judge quality and effectiveness then remove the word midfielder from the topic.

Exactly..

Thats my fuckin point. De Jong has qualities Silva doesnt, Silva has qualities De Jong doesnt. Therefore the question should be "is Silva the best attacking midfielder in the league". If you cant understand what Im saying just forget about...

and if you dont understand the meaning of the word exactly above then it proves my point all along, you are dumb.

Midfielder is a loose term. Taking ALL attributes a midfield needs into consideration, Silva is better than De Jong. All of this, despite De Jong being better defensively....Silva is the better midfielder.

De Jong being better defensively doesn't make them incomparable. It just means you need to use brain power to compute that Silva's other qualities make him better than De Jong despite his shortcomings

No I understood, you just forgot how to read when I stated this ages ago

I dunno....there's not really a standout candidate.

It doesn't really have anything to do with this thread though, as this is about midfielders in general not specifically defensive midfielders.
