As great as he was, Goater didn't generate global headlines for our club.

Any City fan who has been abroad anywhere in the last 2 years will be able to testify that one of the first topics of conversation when a foreigner found out you were a city fan was Mario, he was fantastic for our publicity.

Absolute drivel. I travel for a living mostly Northern Europe but also the States. When mentioning City not one person has mentioned Mario.
Not one? In that case who did they mention from City?
Or did they have no knowledge of City at all?

I'll be completely honest, the only player ever mentioned was Aguero and that was a few days after we won the title. Most of the time, you mention City and they reference Manure - either love or hate!

I thought we had 100 years of history before Mario came along, must be wrong!

Give me a Shaun Goater every day of the week.

Also never seen anyone outside of Manchester with a Balotelli shirt, Messi, Ronaldo, Beckham et al so don't believe the global exposure shite.

You were obviously not talking to football supporters. There is a large Italian community here in Toronto, wearing anything City related out and about in little Italy gets all sorts of comments about Balo and Bob.

So basically 2nd/3rd generation Italians, talking about Italians?
