I'm currently away in Mexico on holiday and every time a waiter or street vendor talks to me it is always the same thing.

Them: Are you from England?
Me: Yes Manchester
Them: Manchester City?? Silva, Aguero! Champions!
Me: Yep, thats the one.

Not a single Mexican has mentioned Utd to me. By all accounts when talking to them after, we are considered the team to watch in Latin America.

Who would have thought that just 4 years ago?
 
Re: How things change

This is clearly a lie. Rags and the media have been informing us for years about the global law that every foreign taxi driver shouts "Bobbeeee Charlton" whenever anybody mentions the word 'Manchester'.

We appear alot in the Spanish speaking world, Aguerro is loved!

Also everyone loves an underdog, we are like that underdog that came good

Ok but you guys get the main point which is that City and not United is first thing they say.
