Is there a reason why he played in a 90s City side that got relegated twice and not in a team that were challenging for league and European titles?


Yeah, the club was ran like dog shit and we had managers that were the equivalent of Phil Brown.

From memory he was offered the chance to go to Barca when we were relegated but stayed with us.

Phil Brown would have been a serious upgrade on some of the arseholes who managed is in the 90s.

I have to say I liked Brian Horton and the football he had us playing was good to watch. Made some decent signings, none of whom will appear on this list though.

Apart from any of the recent contingent, I would go for Rosler.

Anelka would score a gazillion goals in this team.

We've had some great players but we're really struggling for left backs. I'd say Hinchcliffe was the best of a bad bunch, shame he's such a twat now.

From City he went to Ajax who was a European semifinalist at that time. Strong as fuck.
I think he had a major injury there, if my memory is correct.


Played him in the wrong position i think i recall. Played him left midfield like a wing back to accomodate possibly litmanen. Could be wrong tho.

Carl i got a signed kinkladze shirt from a casino customer of mine in Georgia il sell it to you :D
derby day the scores were level,
then the goat was fed by neville,
silly boy should know for sure,
feed the goat and he will score!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As we need a striker, I'd love to see how the Goat would do in this team because he'd most definitely get fed.
Balotelli......that's a brilliant finish.

Got to be aguero or Tevez as we need a striker.
