My top three...
City 2 Liverpool 1
The greatest night game at the Etihad also happens to be the greatest game of football ever played in Premier League history.
The intensity, standard of play (from both teams), the last ditch goal line clearance, the execution of Aguero's goal... it was all sublime.
If it hadn't been for Johnny Boulders nutmegging Salah, Liverpool would have been champions, invincibles and quite possibly centurions. They were that good - but we were that bit better. (Come to think of it, we performed a public service that year!).
It was a fitting adornment to the greatest ever title race.
City 4 Arsenal 1
Quite simply the best performance from an English football team against anyone anywhere at any time.
Someone on Twitter described it as like watching a fight between a bear and a man in a bear suit. :-D
None of the great teams of the past, not Liverpool in the 70s & 80s, no Arsenal side in history and as sure as shit no United side ever came close to the level of football City played last Wednesday night.
It will be very fucking hard but I only hope we can keep it going at something approaching that level to the end of the season.
City 1 United 0
People talk about the Cup Semi Final and I know what they mean but for me, this was the true changing of the guard.
Kompany rising majestically, Mancini putting that bitter twat back in his box with an iconic hand gesture, seeing (in the team they picked) just how much the Sick Swan hurt them, those smug fuckers not getting a shot on target all night.... I won't pretend it made the 35 years worthwhile but I will always be thankful that I lived to see it.
The reverse fixture was a thumping but we did them cold that night. We hammered them 1-0 and they fucking knew it.
