Here is the place to talk about all things city and football!

Was just chatting to a mate, this came up, I know we've got a few oldies here so as the title says, who's the best player you've seen live? Blue/not. For myself;
Blue - Serg. Haven't ever seen as good a finisher as him, amazes me sometimes that he actually plays for us. Was a close one with Vassell though.
None Blue - Henry. Saw him doing kick ups with his shins in the warm up once and pissing himself when pires couldn't do it. Just glided along the pitch, made it look easy.

Blue. Not sure. Dave or Kinky.
Non Blue Matt Le Tissier.
Maybe the non blue should be 'best performance '
The bastard wouldn't let us have a kick of the ball
City and sniffing knickers.
Come on Blues.

Blue: Lee Brad......David Silva/Ali B, I loved their technique.vision, we are very lucky to have had them
Non Blue: there are quite a few, but I will say non-english has to be Dennis Bergkamp and English is Glenn Hoddle

Blue: Silva or Aguero. Kinky did some amazing things but these two or destroying the best in England.
Non-blue: Messi in last seasons game. Close also Vieira and Henry at Maine Road.

City - Kinkladze. Sadly, I am too young to have seen Bell and having not been able to go to a game in years, have not seen Aguero or Silva in the flesh
Non City - Ronaldinho. Saw him at PSG and Barca and he ran the show on both occasions. Utterly sublime.
Best domestic non City would include le Tissier or John Barnes

Ronaldinho did stuff in the friendly game at thetihad just fucking about, which showed how good he was. Some of the best passes I've ever seen in that game.

every time I watched Georgie he was off peak and Colin wasn't quite as good at what he did as Dave is at what he does.

Silva.
Not sure outside City. Maybe Modric or even Bale.

Blue: I loved Kinky, he did things I never thought possible, but Sergio is miles better in terms of completeness.
Non-Blue: Shearer when he played for Blackburn, the most complete centre forward I have ever seen, until he did his cruciate ligament and was never the same again.
