Imagine you had to sign one ex city player, in his prime...

In any era, the only player we've ever had that I felt was the best player on the pitch almost every game, was Colin Bell. If he gets his attitude together and ever gets to his prime, I think we may wish we had Balotelli in his prime.

This is 100% spot on for me.
 
No one's mentioned those "great Wingers" of yesteryear -
Colin Barlow and Ray Sambrook.............
Some of you will now be Googling!!!

It's probably heretical to say on here, but I can't understand people wanting Kinkladze as the one City player or even putting him on a list of top ten City players. I didn't get to many games in that era, but in several I did attend, he didn't look bothered. Granted, he was getting kicked to bits, but I remember Colin Bell taking that kind of treatment and still turning games for us. Kinkladze had occasional, mouth watering brilliance with highlight reel stuff.. but I didn't see enough consistently to rate him any higher than Robinho.

And we had Kinky in his prime didnt we? Would he cut it nowadays in the Prem?
