He’d be one of the top 5 players I’d choose if I was given the option to go back and sign somebody now in their prime.

Stunning footballer. When he came to us, the jump in quality was staggering.

I sometimes forget he played for us and then go find some YouTube videos and he was ridiculous. That free kick against Stoke amongst many truly world class goals. Id argue in terms of sheer quality, probably has the best goal compilation for City outside of Kev.

Yaya is in that conversation as well.

Maybe Tarnat deserves a mention as well considering all the goals he scored for us were free-kicks from half the world away

Have I just read that the transfer window has reopened? What the fuck was the point in shutting it for a few days?

FIFA announced an early window so that clubs in the CWC could do business before the competition started. The other PL clubs didn't want City and Chelsea getting an advantage so voted to open the PL window at the same time. FIFA rules only allow a transfer window of a certain length, so the PL were forced to shut the window for a short period, so it wouldn't be open too long :-)

He was very good, but I think Aguero would argue about the best goal compilation and possibly Haaland.

Is the correct answer.

All you need to know as summer 2025 transfer window opens

Summer 2025 transfer window​

Things look a little different to normal this year due to the first edition of the expanded FIFA Club World Cup.

To accommodate clubs wanting to sign players ahead of that tournament, which begins on 15 June, the transfer window opens early for an exceptional registration period from Sunday 1 June until Tuesday 10 June at 19:00 BST. This applies only to the 20 national associations with clubs playing in the competition, of which England, with Manchester City and Chelsea involved, is one.

This special early opening has allowed Trent Alexander-Arnold to leave Liverpool for Real Madrid in time to feature for the Spanish club in the tournament.

While Manchester City and Chelsea are the only English clubs participating in the Club World Cup, all Premier League teams will be free to sign players during that period.

The window will then shut, before reopening on Monday 16 June and closing on Monday 1 September at 19:00 BST, a slightly earlier time than the traditional 23:00 BST close that has been used.
