He is

Been well past his best since mid way through last season. More of a liability these days because he's lazy and doesn't track midfield runners into the City box. Pellegrini tries to fit both Silva and Toure into the same side and it generally means leaving the midfield defensively vulnerable. Should start Silva and bench Toure more often than not.

Still has wonderful technique and can score excellent goals though.
