Simple. What are your favourite goals of all time not involving City?
This below from Ronaldinho will always be the one for me. The greatest forward in the world facing up against the best goalkeeper in the world, at the time, and producing that - unbelievable.
If you want to explain to someone born after 2006 what Ronaldinho was, just show them this. He takes that ball down from Iniesta's pass and stops for a second, and every Chelsea player stops with him - nobody moves again until the ball is in the back of the net. That was the power and unpredictability of Ronaldinho.
And then to beat, as I said, the best goalkeeper in the world with a toe-poke with no backlift, finding the tiniest gap between the legs and arms of the Chelsea defence? Incredible. One of those goals that causes you to freeze dead on the spot when you've seen it. And then watch back over and over again to work out how the fuck he did it.
