I understand full well, I still find it staggering though if that's alright with you.Staggering that folk don't understand the reason he is sixth.

OK, i get that this is a bit tongue in cheek, but I do wonder at the omission of Roy Paul and Bobby Johnstone. Roy was arguably City's second best-ever captain and few sights have been more endearing in my City life than that photo of him & his lad smiling at each other as they held the FA Cup together. And until the last ten or twelve years Bobby was one of only three City players to whom I'd have applied that overworked word "genius."No Joe Hayes, wtf guys are you even City fans ;)
Looks like the top five will all come from the last decade.
Maybe so. But I never saw Shakespeare or Boudicca or Abe Lincoln either and they're still my favourite famous people.So you expect people who have never seen him play to vote for him as their favourite player? lol
Think about what you’ve just said there. It makes no sense

Yep. Only missed him by a year or two but even still.You missed seeing a truly brilliant footballer who was also a superb athlete and a thoroughly nice person.
Maybe so, but for me that’s like comparing chalk with cheese. Football is all about the here & now & the emotion of there & then.Maybe so. But I never saw Shakespeare or Boudicca or Abe Lincoln either and they're still my favourite famous people.
Do you really think that any future blue who didn’t witness the Aguero moment will watch it & have the same emotion as everyone who witnessed it? I don’t, maybe you do????
Ive seen highlights of the Newcastle 68 game & whilst I enjoyed it, I don’t for one moment presume that my enjoyment of it was anything compared to my old fella, for instance, who was at the game.
Hence why I’d be amazed if anyone who never saw The King play voted for him, whereas those who witness all the great games he was involved in & felt that emotion would.
Not really anything like having other favourite famous people is it? Maybe I’m wrong?
