Manchester City grabs a late win to continue their winning streak as David Silva tagged as the "Greatest City player Ever" (Details, pics)

Silva scored the winner as Manchester City defeated West Ham 2-1 and the Spaniard has been hailed as the club's all-time greatest player.

David Silva and Kevin de Bruyne were instrumental as City's cruised to a 13th consecutive Premier League victory, and TV pundit and former Liverpool captain Jamie Carragher praised the pair.

He described the Spaniard as one of the Premier League greats and the best player in Manchester City's history, alsosaying the midfielder may be usurped by de Bruyne in the future.

"In Silva, the one disappointment is his age and how long is he going to play in the Premier League because we are talking about a player who goes alongside yourself [Henry], Dennis Bergkamp, Cantona, all these greats that we've had in Premier League history," Carragher told 'Sky Sports'.

"He is one of the greatest we've had, David Silva. And De Bruyne is going to be another one, no doubt.," the former defender added. "Now I mentioned City's greatest ever players, all the City fans may say Colin Bell, I don't know but in David Silva, he is the greatest City one."
