Best City Football you've seen?

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).
 
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.
 
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.
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
 
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.
