what a hard question, i never considered this until i saw them all down in front of me. I think they've all got great cases to be.
 
Mercer/Allison a team built on a relative shoe string , players unearthed from lower divisions and developed into the best team in the land , Allison was the most innovative coach of his era and would have given Pep a run for his money and Genial Joe was the calming influence.
The probem with our recent title wins is the total lack of respect our club recieves , we have apparently bought titles and trophies with oil money and that will always be the stick to beat us with , the '68 side was a team built from brilliant signings like Bell,Lee,Summerbee for a total of £140k even in todays money that is chicken feed. Pep has had the luxury of signing a £50m defender and if it doesnt work out, sign another £50m defender.
But money doesnt guarantee success you only have to look across the road at the Rags , Pep has mainly used the clubs resources brilliantly and hasnt signed many duffers and we are all reaping the benefits.
Supremely proud of all our clubs achievements but the '68 teams shades it for me, i think we won the title with a nucleus of around 13/14 players, which would be unheard of now.

Spot on, especially in the lack of recognition by the media since the takeover our history began.
As I've said on another thread, you never forget your first time, and being old does have it's compensations. In my time watching City, I've seen the good, the bad, the ugly AND Stuart Pearce!
 
11/12. Even forgetting QPR, there were so many games that year that I'll never forget

United home and away, spurs home and away, Chelsea home, Newcastle away, Norwich away

Ridiculous season and the atmosphere at the etihad was never better before or since
