It's hard to top for most Manchester City fans.

And it is David Silva's favourite moment in Blue as well.

The 6-1 derby victory over Manchester United at Old Trafford during the 2011/12 title season is top of the little Spanish wizard's list of best moments.

The Blues smashed their old rivals on their home patch - a result that helped them win their first Premier League title by goal difference over the Reds.

Silva ran a midfield masterclass as United were left rattled and as well as an assist, he bagged a goal himself.

So it's no surprise the Spain international has named it his favourite individual performance.

“Choosing my favourite game was actually quite easy," the midfielder said on the club’s website.

Silva opted for the derby demolition over the Blues final-day win over Queens Park Rangers that sealed the title.

He added: “To go to Old Trafford, beat United 6-1 in front of their own fans and play the way we did means that this game will always be hard to top.

“Like everyone else, QPR will always be an amazing memory, but from a performance point of view, this was the game I enjoyed the most.”
