Now we might all have done a best 11 for now or an all-time 11, but with the current emotion as to our legends and talk of a settled team - then from your time watching city who would be in your fan favourite 11.

So this isn’t the best players, but ones who you loved and felt the crowd loved even when they were not in form.

Gk - got to be Nicky Weaver, a true blue and had the world at his feet. Wembley antics and the show of pure joy cements his place.

RB - super Pablo - the Argentinian colossus, bled blue and every game felt like he gave his heart and soul for the shirt.

LB - Danny Tiatto - an absolute nutter of a man. What he lacked for in ability he made up for in passion. A dirty bastard and hard as nails but had a zinger as a left peg.

CB - Dias and Vinnie - both are inspirational leaders of men. They throw their bodies on the line every game and feel like they would rather lose their left bollox than concede a goal.

DM - Fernandinho - a close one this, but went for the Brazilian as he seemed to turn into an honorary Manc by the end. Another leader or men, who the crowd love.

CMS - silva and Ali B - both wizards on the ball and transcended the position and provide a unique edge. Probably my 2 favourite players due to their style of all time.

Rw - SWP - one of us. A youth player who came through the ranks and was a genuine game-changer. Made you proud to be a blue when he won England honours and came back later in his career to a rapturous reception.

LW - Foden - again one of us. With 4 Premier League titles, when he gets the ball the crowd waits with baited breath.

St - Aguero - an obvious choice but a legend for us who provided some incredible moments.
 
I'm not old enough to have a list that span decades. For me:

GK - Joe Hart

RB - Micah Richards
CB - Vinnie Kompany
CB - John Stones
LB - Pablo Zabaleta

DM - Dinho (Could've went with NDJ, but Dinho edges it for me)
CM - KdB
CM - David Silva (For me, still the best I've seen in a City shirt. Incredibly consistent, and makes footballing look easy)

RW - Raheem Sterling
CF - Sergio Aguero
LW - Phil Foden
 
Coton
Hill
Curle
Kompany
Dissa
Ferdy
D Silva
Bernarbia
SWP
Aguero
White

though I would have suggest you favourite 25 man squad as is the squad limit then that would mean 2 possible 11s amd 3 spare as it now

Gk - Coton/Weaver
RB - Hill/Zabba
LB - Pointon/Tiatto
CB - Curle/Stones
CB - Kompany/Dunne
DM - Ferdy/McNabb
CM - Kev/Ali B
CM - D Silva/Bishop
FW - SWP/Goater
FW - Aguero/Quinn
FW - White/Uwe

Supporting 3. - I Brightwell, P Lake, G Barry
