Best City Football you've seen?

[bobbyowenquiff]

The Centurions team of 2017/18 was the greatest team ever seen in English football. It was fantastic to watch and I was lucky enough to do most matches home and away that season. The 100 points tally will never be surprassed. It is a record that will stand for ever.

Loads of great moments. As somebody said the hammering of Stoke was nuts, we were scoring so many that quickly a lot of us actually lost count. Our passing and movement was something else.

The best though was undoubtedly the Madrid game in the treble season. The atmosphere, the performance given the opposition we were playing at as our of this world. We could easily have been 5-0 up at the break. What a game, what a performance, what a night.

First half against Chelsea early on in the title winning 11/12 season, we actually ended up losing the game (Oliver? ffs) but football wise the first half was to this day some of the best football I’ve seen us play.

I was proud to be at Stamford bridge that night to see Mancini s City completely outplay Chelsea ,with flowing attacking football from the gods. We were sensational that 1st half, Silva Yaya and Sergio in tandem.we were of course robbed, def pen on Silva not given , and didn't the bent ref manage to send one of ours off.Ballotelli was electric that night possibly his best performance for us ever, he was taking the piss out of Chelsea ,this was Mancini at his height.and his prodigy showed the world that night how it could have been ,if he put in the consistent effort.
I'm smiling.. now as I remember how clinical we we were that night
One touch, two touch football , all movement and grace..
This was also prime Sergio. What a player..what a player.
Thanks for the memory .

Away to Napoli a few years ago.

Good shout that. Brilliant performance.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

The first half of the Arsenal 3-0 game with blue lines at their place was almost perfect.

Loved the 1-5 at Spurs where Dzeko scored 4 too.

How long have you got so many happy days .

 

[Bentheblue]

Maybe not the most aesthetically pleasing but we won 1-0 away at chelsea 2 or 3 years ago and was possibly the most complete away performance I remember.

The 1.0 away at Chelsea when KDB scored was an unbelievable performance, totally outplayed the Chavs away, who couldn’t have complained had we won 4.0

 

[Bentheblue]

Still think the centurion season was the best overall.

Went into every game barely even doubting we’d win.

Those were the days. I’m sure they’ll soon return.

Of all the games I have witnessed live...March 1962. City 6 Spurs 2 - Peter Dobbing hat-trick.
City, having a mediocre season, blasted away a high flying Tottenham side with Greaves, Blanchflower, Mackay & White.
I don't think I have ever left Maine Road more dazzled by a City performance. Walking back home my to home in Hulme in wearing my City scarf and waving my rattle, people asked the score...but no one believed me.

3-0 at Arsenal 2018, Sané was superb. Pity there weren’t more Arse fans there to watch us take them apart

 

[gordondaviesmoustache]

For me it’s any one of a number of Old Trafford Derby wins in the last 13 years.

We’ve repeatedly brutalised the cunts on their own turf.

How about the ballet on ice, terrific performance in unbelievable conditions and yes I’m a foc.

 

[krisblue]

The first half of Madrid at home stands alone as the best I’ve seen City play, but also maybe the best I’ve ever seen any team play.

 

[vmsuhail]

The Treble season had good football at the beginning of the season and from mid-February onwards. The Centurions were great throughout the season (even in those 3 defeats, the football was superb in the first halfs against United and Liverpool second leg).

 

[dennishasdoneit]

Ahead of our trip to WHL ....fond memories of destroying spurs 5-1 in their own back yard.Dzeko hit 4,Sergio 1,
Yaya Silva Nasri all supreme in midfield . I couldn't believe my eyes how slick we were. It was a lunchtime sat k.o.back in the day and we absolutely battered spurs. Our football was so fluid that day,really impressed me.

Agreed. But we can't ever forget destroying utd 5-1 on our own turf September 1989. Our new signing Clive Allen was out Injured, utd centre forward Mark Hughes had hit a hat trick at Millwall the week before,( we,d just lost away at Brentford in the league cup) they had the most expensive team in British history ,we had young home grown academy lads,with a few older heads, they tried to invade the north stand and got kicked out..getting the game stopped due to the trouble they caused......

And... we still came out ,after the restart, and smashed them to bits.
My favourite ever player Paul Lake was outstanding ...
A brilliant day ,where we outplayed and out fought utd,at Maine Road .
The Kippax was bouncing ,what a day !

A sublime moment that stays with me is in the 20-21 season, when we won about 30 games on the bounce with some of the best football ever played anywhere, we won away at Burnley one night and in the midst of all this wonderful total football a ball was played into the box in the air and Gundog could have maybe tried for a header but instead, completely bamboozling the defence, he sort of leapt in the air and reverse chest controlled it perfectly into the path of Jesus or Raz for a clear cut chance.

It was outrageous to have had the imagination to have even thought about doing it let alone to have executed it in such a perfect fashion, it always stayed with me .... a thing of beauty is a joy forever

 

[FromPollockToSilva]

Some of the football we played in the first half of 13-14, when Agüero and Negredo were on fire and Yaya was utterly imperious, still stays with me. We've obviously been better at various points since but at the time it was just awesome, in the original sense of the word

 

[Crooked_rain]

The City team that smashed Real Madrid 4-0 beats any city team on that night.

Other city teams have played great football but never really got over the line in the biggest moments in the toughest European competition. Just lacked that little bit of something.

That treble winning team was a bit more savvy along with great football.
