My apologies to Mike Walsh and Ken McNaught,you were both inept enough for this roll of honour,but unfortunately(more like fortunately) you didn't make enough appearances.
Walsh made 4 and McNaught 7,my memory must be playing tricks as I remember them being ever present in my nightmares and the bloke who used to stand behind us on the Kippax screaming at Walsh,haunts me to this day.
Viljoen or Cunningham it is then,the former must have had a boot contract with Hunter wellies,whilst poor old Tony couldn't hit a cows arse with a banjo(his scoring record was absolutely dreadful,but clubs kept signing him).

Barry Fucking Silkman is the worst player I have ever seen wear the shirt.
Distribution like a postman on LSD, all the pace of a snail on valium, the vision of David Blunkett and milk could turn quicker.
The only City player who I have ever seen and thought, with all honesty, 'I could fucking do better than that ****'.

To be fair to most of the players mentioned they cost next to fuck all.

Now the challenge is choose one on a worst value for money either fee or wages basis based on transfer values at the time we bought them.

Ill have a go.

Subs...., Jo, Samaras, Corradi, Weah, Negououi, Jovetic, Rodwell.

Jovetic has been injured. The lad is absolute class and if he is able to get a decent run in the team and stay injury free then he will more than prove his worth.

Rodwell similar to Jovetic, although possibly shouldn't have taken the risk on him with his history of injuries.

Agree with most of the others you have mentioned.

They were selected purely on a worst value for money basis as we have had no value for either of them. That may change and if so they will be off the list!

I also missed Santa Cruz of course.

Didi Hamann??? Are you sure he was absolute quality for us

he played a huge part in our winning the munich anniversary derby at OT. I will forever salute him on the strength of that game alone.

If you extended this thread to , fit to wear the shirt , you would have a 20 team premier league.
What pees me off is most of this dross will be boasting in around ten years time that they used to play for the best team in the world Man City !!

 

[Chippy_boy]

Gelson Fernandez was pretty dismal come to think of it. I think he made a forward pass once though, so the jury's out for me.

Surely you can't be referring to Kenny Clements! a very decent full back with a league cup winners medal and part of that great 1976-1977 team that finished runners up to a Liverpool.
