Bluemoon's Official Top 100 Favourite Manchester City Players

Two Tricky Trevs in one batch. I didn't get as far as listing 100 players when I complied my 20 but I had quite a lot of players who nearly made the 20. Neither of them was on that list but I reckon both would be in my 100.

Kyle definitely would be in 100 and thought he'd be higher than this.

Ned probably would make the 100.

Going back to The Trevors, both are inextricably linked to two of the best away days ever.

Trevor Francis' debut saw one of the best travelling supports that I ever experienced.

Morley of course was a key figure on that day in Bradford. He also takes me back to when I still went to have my haircut: he was a family friend of my hairdresser. One of many City players that was underrated by his own fans.

Morley was one of my first players I can recall as a young hammer

I seemed to have picked quite a few from the 1990s. Two current, three recently departed, three from 70s and a small number from 80s.
Could have picked a whole lot more - just 20 was so difficult but enjoyable.
 
But who on here is old enough to have seen him play?
I was hoping people would have read up on players and voted for them. My favourite player is Bert Trautmann (for many reasons, including the fact that he's why my uncles started supporting City when they came here from Ireland in the '50s and so why I'm a blue) but I never saw him play.

I was too young to have seen Bert play when he was at City but I certainly read about him when I was at school. I did see him appear in a testimonial long after he retired. I was also, primarily, a goalkeeper when I played football but I still wouldn't put the great man in my top 20 as I would only include guys that I saw play regularly.
 
I'm embarrassed to say that i have just noted that i did not include KDB in my list..

That made me smile.

I forgot one player until very late on and was torn about leaving them out but finally decided not to include them. I'm sure other names will pop up that make me think should I have included them?
