Yes, the Sane goal was one of the best team goals you could ever see. KDB didn’t score though,mit was Bernardo, Silva and Sane, in that order if memory serves.

Man City 3-1 Barcelona 2016
The days we used to come from behind against mega-strong teams, we literally pushed that Barcelona side out of Etihad with our press in the second time. I miss that 4-3-3 .....and Pep in a suit!
Chelsea 0:1 Man City 2017
This is when Pep really started building the best team PL had ever seen until that moment. And the times we were letting teams having a fewer than five shot from counterattacks, even in away games, please let me see just another game like that.
Man City 2:1 Liverpool 2019
The best game in the history of the PL (my opinion!) and probably the peak of football quality two teams ever achieved in the PL (again my opinion, MU, Che, and Ars sides from early noughties compare like proper Chamionship hoofers to those two teams), even PL winning Liv side was not so strong. Goosebumps every time I see the game, or goals and remember that atmosphere. That feeling of desolation realizing it is never coming back, uhfffff......

Any side with Tueart, Barnes Hartford and Donnachie in it for me, there were times when that lot played the fiddle the world seemed to dance.
I know there's no Tueart in this but this was blood and thunder.
Loved that team! Watson like a rock at the back, big Joe in goal. Barnes was one of the most exciting City players I've seen when he was in full flow.

First half at Arsenal, a few days after we beat them in the League Cup final. Absolutely freezing, but City’s football in going 3 0 up by half time was just brilliant. Shame only about 10,000 Arsenal fans were there to see it.
What's weird is that the attendance given on here is over 58,000. That's clearly not possible. There are vast empty swathes on every side of the ground except our end.

They probably do the same as a lot of clubs. Season ticket holders are classed as having attended, as the seat has been sold.What's weird is that the attendance given on here is over 58,000. That's clearly not possible. There are vast empty swathes on every side of the ground except our end.

Ah yes, I was conflating it with the 19/20 game

Ditto.Was working my way through to see if anyone posted this.
I think that was my first “holy shit we’ve actually got a great team” moment as a City Fan. Couldn’t believe what I was watching.
I too could not believe it.That 5-1 away win at Spurs had me dizzy with excitement.There was so much skill and technical ability in that team
Watching Silva Yaya and Nasri weave such tight, intricate, patterns around the spurs players was just magic and then Augero who sprinted twisted and turned in perfect harmony with the midfield dribbling with ,absolute control of the ball at his feet ,low centre of gravity, clearly loving being at the top of his game with fellow players on his level.awesome to watch.amd Dzeko ..basically..ran amok.grabbing 4 goals at a time when it wasn't even fashionable to score 4 in a game ; )
. Spuds never got a grip ,it was all City...and it flowed.

Like we'd never seen before. It was literally raining goals.The promotion season under keegan was fantastic football.
I actually used to feel sorry for most visiting teams at Maine Road that season. The team sheet said it all. Bernarbia ,Berkovic, Goater ,Shaun Wright Phillips , Wanchope ....We coming at you....from all angles... with Non Stop Attacking Football !!!!
I remember one Sunday at Maine rd Burnley turned up ,top of the league
Loads of fans and noise...we put 5 past them,smashed them to bits.
another game at Maine rd one of our 1st choice strikers wasn't fit.
Keegan slotted Darren Huckerby in and he scored 6 !!
Like I say , sometimes, I felt sorry for the opposition that season; )
