https://twitter.com/City_Watch/status/1 ... 93/photo/1It was 10 years ago today that Vinny joined.
I think that deserves a thread of it's own.
What a guy. What a servant to the club. He will be a great ambassador for the club, whatever he decides to do after he hangs up his boots.
Would love to see himself, Dave and Kun get UCL winners medals before they bow out.

What a guy! I can't remember a player coming to the club and just becoming a fan like he has. His whole life has changed since he came here from the medals he's won to meeting his wife in Manchester.
Have we ever had a better leader? He's probably the most intelligent.
Nice to see a positive thread for a change.

Ha ha ha! You've done some great fishing lately, mase.
I've been a bit too busy at work to join in the fun, though

Had his problems at times, but there’s barely a player who hasn’t. But his overall record in this decade is phenomenal. A true City legend
As a leader he is unparalleled
As club captain he is a class apart
As a defender he has often been the glue that held us together
I truly believe without him we most probably wouldn’t have had the success we’ve had over the years. His passion for City shines through and I can see him remaining at the club for a very long time

He is incredible in the all or nothing documentary. A true leader. We are blessed.

I was there for his debut, def mid, didn’t put a pass out of place all game.
It took the media about 4 years before they noted how good he was/is

Just watched 10 years a blue on YouTube.
The guy is a legend and he’ll be with us forever in some capacity or other.

Really hope his last few years with us as a player don’t end up with him playing badly and getting turned over like yesterday’s game. Sometimes the great players know when to bow out

Is he out of contract at the end of the season?
