'My' era lasts a fair time & still continues. The best is Bell, by miles & miles, but my favourite is Rodney Marsh.

Non City would probably be Supamac (Malcolm MacDonald) plus Frank Worthington, Stan Bowles, Gazza (Gazza purely for football reasons as he is a twat) edit: & LeTissier. Hopefully another English player with both supreme talent & unpredictability will one day appear again.

Alan Shearer.
And that Shauny from the early part of 2000s when he was dancing around defenders. Dear memories

I've had a few eras, but (non-City) it has to be Duncan Edwards - the real one.
Then Frank Worthington.
And to bring in the Scots under "British", Dave MacKay and little Jimmy Johnstone, Celtic winger.

Colin Bell from my first era.Dave Watson from the next and Joe Hart from the current crop.

Outside City it has to be Gazza and Le Tiss with Shearer not even close as I always disliked him (except when he scored against the scum)

I can't make up my mind.

It's a toss up between Steve McManaman and Darren Anderton.

Le Tissier. That compilation is daft. Amazing stuff. Tueart without a doubt my all-time favourite City player and I'd have to include Gascoigne as he was fantatstic.
