Wow, really difficult to choose.
Between Kompany, Silva and Aguero for me. I plumped for Silva but it could have been any of those three to be fair

Incredible choice from a golden era but Vinny for me for his leadership and class and above all a superb human being .

My sentiments too. We are still searching for a suitable replacement to Vinny. We have the same issue coming up for Sergio''s replacement but I doubt we will see a like for like. Such a big gap to fill after Vinny. Cannot end without mentioning El mago truly world class and would grace any team in his prime

Impossible to answer that with only one vote! They are all legends in their own right, but for different reasons. If I was up against the wall and had to choose, it would be Kun - purely for the ecstasy of that 93:20 moment. I'm not sure that the feeling of witnessing that at the ground, surrounded by other long-suffering blues, will ever be bettered.

Zaba for me. Fave City player of all time. All are legends, though, and I can imagine people on here's grandkids asking them to tell stories about seeing each and every one of them playing in the flesh in several decades' time.

Kompany for his contribution on the pitch but also off it as captain and club ambassador

Its very difficult choice as they all played their part in so many different ways. But Silva for me, he influenced and ran and won so many games, didn't hide, performed in big matches, had a good injury record, reliable,dependable, intelligent, brilliant, always acted with total professionalism and grace. It was a pure pleasure to watch him play.

My eyes but went for Vinnie purely for his tremendous leadership and his loyalty to City

I love them all, but Ya Ya for me, Komoany for his leadership, Merlin simply for his beautiful football, Zabba is Zabba, Legend full stop. Kun for his goals.....and tons of them. When it really mattered though.....FA Cup semi and final, League Cup final , against Newcastle and Palace and countless others Ya Ya was the one that conjured up something really special when it really mattered.

Very difficult to choose between Komps, Silva or Serg. Had to go for Serg for that moment!!!!

I liked the idea of a statue of Komp/Silva/Sergio/Yaya.

Impossible really.

Went for Komps because he always led from the front, and inspired everyone else.

Plus the two goals that won us titles, the header against the rags, and the worldie against Leicester.

Silva is my favourite player and I believe City's greatest ever player and Aguero has Aguerooooooooooooooooooooo....

But if you have to pick a club legend from that list it has to be Kompany as, for me, legendary status includes all the other bits others have already mentioned, on top of the performances on the pitch, and that header v the rags and pretty much his last kick for us was the wonder goal that clinched the title.

Like so many others just one answer isn't enough really, but I also went for Kaptain K, as much as i love all the others they have or will move on, Vincent however i see him returning to the club in some capacity in the future, which i don't see the others doing.
