Greatest winger to play for City

Dave Wagstaff on the left (no good at tracking back though), Summerbee on the right (could track back and one of the best over the ball tacklers ever, but wouldn't get away with it these days).

This.

Trivia:-
Waggy was the first player to receive a red card in English football and be dismissed from the field of play on the day the cards were introduced...

Grew up with SWP so I can't look past him. First time round he was the most exciting player I've ever seen.
 
Someone that no one has mentioned - Tommy Hutchison. And I'm not just referring to his great header in the 81 Final, but his general play. He was a brilliant dribbler, could beat any full back on a sixpence, put in a perfect cross with either foot (where's a two-footed winger nowadays?) and score goals into the bargain. Alas, he came to us too late in his career, having wasted his time at Coventry & Blackpool. A 25-yr-old Tommy Hutch would do City the world of good right now.
And has nobody mentioned the great Roy Clarke? Worked for the club after finishing a great career, but tragically ended up with dementia but still came to matches accompanied by his son-in-law. I had a word with him near the end outside CoMS, but his answer upset me deeply, it was so garbled.
Why do so many footballers end up like that?
