Your Team 3 needs a bit of work. Dunne, Elano and Robinho had all well left 10 years ago.
You've forgotten Yaya as well.

Walker
Dias
Komps
Cancelo
Yaya
KDB
David Silva
Fern
Aguero
Bernardo

Someone asked me the other day to choose between Prime Vinnie and Dias. Tough question

We’ll only be able to answer in 10 years when we’ve seen Dias at his prime and can compare them both fairly.

I agree with your team. Prime Komps but if Dias continues to be brilliant, it will be tough to split them.

Tevez has to be in the first team, and why is there no Bellers, he's got to be in there somewhere.

My tuppence worth.
You can compare between teams who played together (who was the best team) but you cannot cherry pick a best 11 from those teams.
Nobody knows if the cherry picked 11 would gel.

For me the squad that won the domestic treble was the best ever. Why? Because it had never been done before. That is how difficult it was to win and they cracked it.
My favorite City team every was the late 1960s team. Magic. I loved watching them. Summerbee, Bell, Lee, Young, Book, Doyle, Booth, etc... They were hard as nails, winners and put the Rags in their place.

Bellamy played his last game for us at Tottenham in May 2010 - so not in the last decade.

It’s a good point. I nearly went with Dias and Stones for precisely that reason but I couldn’t leave Vinny out.

This is all getting seriously depressing.
First sweeps kids playing league footy, now you say it's 11 years since Bellers played.
The writing's on the wall for me.

Nasri anyone?
also Jovetic, de Michelis, Iheanacho all in the mix possibly before clear liabilities like Bony, Rodwell, Garcia, Mangala, Nolito, Mendy.......

What about the worst team of the decade? It has to be said we did bring in a few unsuccessful efforts.
