Stefan Savic. Was booked when coming on as sub for running onto pitch before being told he could. That was as good as it got for him.

For sheer quality it has to be Aguero, for memorability has to be Sun Jihai...

Great day.


This. Was a fab day, on the back of making the Cup final the year before we thought we had lift-off. Trev looked a class apart.

Definitely. He ran the game and it was evident from his first pass that City had signed a genius. The Birmingham coach (who?) said he wished City had got him a week later. "He could find you when you couldn't find yourself" someone said of him.

Kasper Schmeichel and Arni Arason had pretty memorable debuts from the goalkeeping perspective.

Eyal Berkovic v Watford was a good one. Electric atmosphere and he just ran the show.

Ali Benarbia had the freedom of Maine Road on his debut.

I was at Sunderland for SWP re-debut, a day that will live with me for a long time.

Adebayor's debut was pretty good at Blackburn, sending 7,500 people in the away end mental, with that early goal.

That's who immediately sprung to mind when I read the thread title, very excited by the signing, great debut and that's when the love affair ended
