Carragher: Man City's Silva THREE levels above Mata, Cazorla

Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher rates Manchester City midfielder David Silva a couple of levels above of Manchester United's Juan Mata and Arsenal's Santi Cazorla.

City's Spanish ace was in sparkling form again against Aston Villa as the Blues went into the international break on a high.

Carragher said: "One player you would love to watch, no matter who you support- it would be him.

"Couple of other Spaniards like him - (Santi) Cazorla and (Juan) Mata - he's two or three levels above them. You never see him get tackled, you can't get near him.

"His awareness is the best in world football, (Andres) Iniesta and Xavi are the nearest level to him. He's something special."
