Manchester City will again be without playmaker David Silva for tomorrow’s game against Middlesbrough as the 31-year-old continues to struggle with a knee problem.
David Silva's still struggling with a knee injury and will not play against Middlesbrough tomorrow

Silva went off injured against Arsenal in the FA Cup semi-final at Wembley after receiving some rough treatment from opposition players, and wasn’t fit enough to play in Thursday night’s Manchester derby.
The silky Spaniard was given a 50/50 chance of returning for City’s visit to the Riverside, but it appears he has lost his battle to make the squad. Unless of any further complications, Silva should return in time for City’s home game against Crystal Palace on May 6.
