Man City sweat on Silva fitness

Manchester City will have to wait until at least Wednesday to discover the extent of David Silva's ankle injury. The Spain international will undergo a full scan on Wednesday and his team-mates will be hoping Silva's injury is not as serious as feared.

Defender Pablo Zabaleta told City's official website: "We know how important David Silva is for the team. With him in the starting XI, it's different.

"He is the one who has everything. He simply makes us play better. Hopefully we will see with his ankle that it is not so bad. Fingers crossed David will be back as soon as possible and fit for the next game."
