star of escape to victory!

IMO still the best player ever to pull on a City shirt. I’d love to have seen how he would slot into the recent teams.

Blimey, that's a bold statement. Not sure many will agree with you though. We got Deyna just before he went to the knackers yard, but he wasn't fit to lace David Silva's boots anytime in his career.

A sublime player, but discernibly past his best when he came here.

My son was born in 1981. I wanted to call him Francis. My wife was uncertain so I offered up Kazimierz as an alternative.

So Francis it was!

Yes he was a great player but we only saw fleeting glimpses. From memory he seemed to be injured a lot. Died tragically young. RIP Kazi.

Came with great promise but mostly underwhelmed.
