I remember during the first arsenal drubbing, a guy ran on the pitch from the platt lane and shook Henry's hand.

They were by far the best team, Henry one of my all time favourites, but the best player against us over the years I've been around has probably been Rooney when you look at the stats.

I don't think he is as good as folk make out, but he steps it up a level against us, weras ronaldo let Stephen Jordan mark him out of the game twice and was sent off twice out f frustration at his poor performances

Either you misread the question, or it's a horrifying prediction for Saturday.

No, I've seen him this season. As for prediction, yes he'll score on Saturday, but so will Negredo and Aguero.

You haven't seen him against us though. But I'll accept your prediction, as long as no one else scores. For them, at least.

Not a opposition player but saw PSG in 2003 & Barca in 2005 & Ronaldinho ran the show both times. A genius.

Also saw Milan in 1985/6 at the swamp for some rags testimonial. It was the team of Gullit, Rijkaard, van Basten, Donadoni et all. They scored 4 times in 15 minutes without the rags touching it. Unbelievable team show

Ronaldinho for Brazil in the 2000 Olympics.

Allesandro Del Piero for Sydney FC. He's still got it.

Regarding the Arsenal drubbing, I liked the Kippax singing "boring, boring Arsenal" after the 4th went in.


Stan Bowles is technically City product so does he even count?
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?
