Most overrated City player ever?

[The Stockport Iniesta]

Robinho, came with a reputation of being world class, but was nowhere near it. Had ability but not the mentality to match.

While playing for City? Craig Bellamy. Played very well against United in the 4-3 derby and coasted off that. Was very average for the rest of the 09-10 season and might as well have not turned up for the 1-0 defeat to Spurs.

Mancini saw right through him and got shot of him. No coincidence that he went straight to the Championship after leaving us and only came back to the PL because Kenny Dalglish wanted him as a squad player in a Liverpool team that finished 8th.

He did knock us out of the league cup and went on to win it.

He joined Liverpool from us.

Perhaps Superman, as an attacking midfielder 16 goals in 5 seasons wouldn’t get him on the EDS bench, then there was that red blinged out Range Rover, most memorable thing was the mad celebration..

theres some disrespect on here, some correct answers but kompany really, and some are comparing players from another decade with david silva and aguero, some of these players where average at best but all we could afford or tempt here, rant over, carry on.

Bravo.

Pep rated him, because he was meant to be good with his feet. But compared to Ederson he was shit with his feet. And he was shit with his hands compared to any goalkeeper.

 

[bennyboy]

Bellamy and NDJ.
Not that they were poor for us but not as great as some make out.

He joined Cardiff.

Then eventually joined Liverpool.

Cardiff was a loan he came back.
