Best individual performance you have ever seen.

I remember during the Tueart v Nots County game , Gary Buckley put in an immense shift and had a great game.
 
Nicky Weaver put on a goalkeeping masterclass at home to Ipswich the season we won promotion to the Premier League under Joe Royle, we won 1-0 but could have lost 3 or 4 1 easily if it hadn't been for Weaver. Still ranks up there with the best keeping displays I've seen.

forgot all about joe at spurs 1st day of the season; 2010. good shout.
 
Kinky v Newcastle in the 3-3. What a performance from a wonderful player. There were so many games, where he shone through the shit, that you could go on forever about him in this thread, but that day he was truly unstoppable against at the time, one of the best teams in the league. Another shit hot performance from the same game, came via Faustino Asprilla, he too was sensational that day, and I think it was his debut for the toon.

Good list

Mersion and berbatov are the two opposition players who were special against us

That was a bloody great game - asprilla was like mr tickle!!

Ian bishop was pretty good in the 33 game for Bournemouth.
 
Some great shouts already but Aguero v Utd in the FA Cup game a couple of years ago also deserves a mention.
I wasn't at the game but I remember Bobby McDonald going in goal v somebody and he got 10 out of 10 in all the papers.

Best against us... Lahm, the other night wasn't bad. Everything else is in Room 101, by now.

As for individuals in games not involving City. Maradona v England (sorry!) in 86(?) and Zidane in the World Cup semi final a few years ago both get a big fat WOW. Also Paul McGrath v Italy in 1994 was a sight to behold.

Bish was brilliant in the 3-3, and I was over the moon when we paid £750,000 to sign him in the summer. Quite possibly one of the best pieces of transfer business, we have ever done.
 
Has anybody mentioned when Paul Simpson returned to City in 1985? He came back from a loan period somewhere after making his City debut when he was 16. He played in a home game and absolutely dominated for 90 minutes. We still lost 3-2 typical City, but I came away from Maine rd. in awe of his brilliant performance. I think he scored our two goals.
Sorry for the hazy recollection but it was nearly 30 years ago!
