Ade for me - I have been around for a long time but I cannot remember ever being more excited by someone at CF for CITY than Ade - just terrific and we have just the players in Rob, Carlos Bellers and Stevie to score for fun playing off him

Given for me. He's saved us more points since he signed and shown that he really is a world class keeper.

It's a tough poll though. Bellamy, Toure, Adebayor, Tevez are all quality signings but if I had to go for a best of the rest it would be Barry.

Bellamy. He's in the form of his life at the moment and loving it. Love the way he will still be chasing everything and gobbing off to everyone in the 93rd minute.

The fact that it is so hard to decide says a lot about how far we've come, they all have merits but this season so far it is Bridge for me mainly because I thought he was a great signing when we bought him and he went on to have a disappointingly average half season. Now that he is back fully up to match speed and has had a full pre-season with the club he has been brilliant so far.

The pinch me I'm dreaming moments are all too frequent when watching Given, Barry, Toure and Adebayor run out in City shirts too

Maybe we should have a poll on which mod can't read.

In fairness that writing is pretty difficult to see, particularly when you're wearing blue-tinted specs. Maybe a change to the site required?

Adebayor for me.

And this smiling Arabic assassin is intent on stealing all the treasures they've nicked off everyone else, and pulverising them into commercial and footballing oblivion as he does so."

Could've picked 3 or 4 from that list but definitely Adebayor for me. Such a pleasure to finally be watching a world class striker in a City shirt

Bellers then Ade.

Both are unstoppable when on top form.

Given always manages to pull out an acrobatic save which saves us some points in a close game. Definately worth every penny invested in him.

You also get a little more value for money on matchday watching Shay, as he spends at least five minutes during half time warming up again in front of the fans.

i've perhaps taken this a little to literally...but i ENJOY watching NDJ the most. When he's on his game he's a lot of fun to watch win balls, fight and just mix it up. Tevez would be up there as well in terms of fun to watch. Loved watching him run after it today, and come off after completely spent.

Ade for me. He is our best player. He holds it up and controls the ball better than anyone.
