Khaldoon Al Mubarak promises Manchester City will go from 'strength to strength' (thenationalnews.com)

Al Mubarak also revealed there will be three more statues of City legends at the Etihad in the near future.

“We’ve had the statues of Vincent Kompany, David Silva and Sergio Aguero,” he said.


“These three reflect the most successful era in the history of this club.

“But there are other very successful eras and I think remembering Colin Bell, Francis Lee, Mike Summerbee is very important. This club has a great history.

“These are players that have contributed immensely to this club. They’ve earned the right to be appreciated forever, eternally with statues.

“I won’t say too much until it’s done but what I will say is these three legends will be properly respected and represented in a work of art that all the fans of this club will be able to see.”

Bell, Lee and Summerbee are widely regarded as three of City’s greatest players. All were pivotal in the 1960s and 70s as City won all three major domestic honours, as well as the 1969-70 European Cup Winners’ Cup.

I've got a few old cans of lager I've used for air rifle target practice they can use if they want to keep in tradition with the recent ones.

Neil Young was just as deserving of a statue as Colin Bell, and certainly more than Summerbee and Lee.

All about opinions of course, but at least I was there to witness it.

If we erected statues for every blue that deserved it we wouldn't be able to move outside the ground, Neil Young is a great shout BTW mate.

He never once used the word statue. He was careful not to correct it, but never used it himself, and even went as far as referring to it as a work of art, rather than explicitly a statue. And was careful not to reveal more.

“Skip” deserves one, as does Trautmann imo too.

I’ve never been a fan of statues for this reason. You have to draw the line and it’s always a very harsh line on those who miss out.
