Bellamy. Really hated him before he signe for us, but warmed to him very quickly. Didn't put a foot wrong during his time at City. And didn't gob off.

Mario as aa close second for entertainment.

Everyone hated Bellers until he played for their team, then it turned into adulation. He's definitely a love him or hate him sort of guy.

Bellers would police the boards too, to see what we were saying about him!
My choice is Tevez.

Tevez. He was at the top of his powers for us. Immense when he played.

Very good thread. I dont think many of those posted were problematic for US (Dunne, Bellamy, even Yaya).

Balotelli obviously a great shout.

I loved Robinho as a player, but sadly my respect for this man is confined within the touchlines

I was thinking about him this morning or yesterday. I think someone on here put it perfectly when they said something like "You'll never find someone who supports a club he's played for that hates him, and you'll never find someone who supports a club who he didn't play for who doesn't hate him.".

I also remember someone making a prediction when we signed him that he'd score a hat-trick at the Swamp and then get red-carded, which DHTP(?) managed to dig out after the 2009 derby.
