Man City in danger: Losing conductor Silva due to serious injury
Difficulties are piling up for Manchester City in the final stages of the season when midfielder David Silva is seriously injured and is at risk of having to rest for a long time.
Man City's board fear the Spain international will be out for weeks after suffering an ankle injury that forced him off in the first half of their 3-2 FA Cup defeat to Man United.

Initially, it was thought that the injury was not too serious, but yesterday (January 10), Silva was still unable to participate in the training session with his teammates to prepare for the match against Liverpool. According to information from Goal, the coaching staff received bad news from the club's medical team about Silva's condition. The X-ray results showed many cracks and bruises around Silva's ankle and the Man City star midfielder will certainly not be able to participate in the match against Liverpool in the Carling Cup.
It is not yet known how long Silva will recover, but his injury is quite serious and an early return to the field is unlikely. In addition to Silva, coach Mancini also lost the service of Kompany. The Belgian center-back was suspended for 4 matches for a two-footed tackle on Nani.
But fortunately for Man City, the duo Mario Balotelli and Edin Dzeko have recovered from their injuries and returned to training with their teammates. With the lack of players, Mancini is likely to name Owen Hargreaves in the starting lineup for the match against “The Kop”.
