[mrtwiceaseason]

Should’ve waited for Aguero to leave. Vinnie, Yaya, Silva and Aguero together would be much more iconic.

I was going to say this! the four of them made the spine of City's greatest team ever!

I've watched and downloaded all the tribute videos on the OS - was a little disappointed that in his final interview he spoke entirely in Spanish. I was hoping for a little bit of English especially near the end when the question concerned the fans.
Apart from that little moan - what a great player / person we have been privileged to have pull on our blue shirt for such a long time. It is going to be strange not seeing him on the pitch.

So much I could say and so much I want to say but I will bite my lip.

Thanks to the ones that have supported my friend over the past magnificent 10 years.

He is sad and angry right now. Like most of us left bemused by the 5 at the back tonight but let's not sour things.

I just want you to know he has told me from the dressing room "it has been an honour to play for this club".

He has tonight moved into the top 10 of all time City appearances.

Greatness is measured by achievement, skill and longevity. He has accomplished all 3.

He let his football do the talking, I am sure we will be talking about him in decades to come.

I wish I could have shared more with you over the years but at the end of the day he is a friend and I have respected his privacy at all times.

David will always have City in his heart.

Thanks

for me he has given more pleasure than any other City player in my lifetime and I remember the 60/70s team. The finest player to grace our shirt. My wife and I watched his interview and all the tributes the club have paid (with a few tears) and they were nice but can’t replace us all saying goodbye properly. The two elderly ladies that sit next to us at the Etihad adored David. Always the first one they looked for on the team sheet. Please god they and all of us get to say goodbye and thank you at the Etihad for everything he has given us. Good luck with whatever you do in your life David, for you and your family, and gracias for the last ten years of absolute genius and class.

Happy to admit, I was spectacularly wrong about a statue outside the ground. Died in the last ditch a few times arguing about that over the years tbf!

Apologies to anyone I called an idiot for disagreeing with me on this topic!

Is it just this topic or others in which you have called people idiots? - asking for 'a friend'.

As this is the only subject I’ve ever been wrong about in my entire life, the former, and tell your friend he’s an idiot!
