This is new to me. The first time I have watched and seen a great City team being formed and than coming to its end. What a ten years it's been. I was only around 10 or 11 when the Lee, Bell, Summerbee team came to an end. This time the Club is in such a better position to deal with this.
City signed Aguero, Silva, Yaya, Zabba, Kompany, the backbone of the last 10 years. Sorry if I missed out someone.
Every summer we had the papers saying Sergio is off to who ever, but no he stayed like most and gave the best of their careers to City.
To see the last of that great City team leave is sad and I include Fernandinho in this. These players have helped City become a powerhouse within football. These players have stayed at City despite the British press/media ignoring them for player of the year or in the team of the year. That shows the type of people City employ, not self centred glory hunters, but people who can see what City are about.
These players have helped City attract other top players and build for the future. They have shown what a wonderful well run, caring club City is.
On a personal note I was going thought a shitty divorce, than a few years later meet my soulmate. The first thing I did was make her watch the City v QPR. She doesnt watch football. I said to her to understand me we have to watch this match, to understand what City and Manchester means my family and me. We watched it, I burst into tears as we get the Aguerooooooooo moment. So did she lol.
She got it ! She wrote to City and told them about how life had been shit for the last 3 years for me. Told them me being a proud manc and could City do something for me.
I got a signed Sergio picture :).
And my missus comes to matches now lol.
What a great club.
I never thought I would see one great City team in my life time, but as this one comes to an end this new City team is just beginning with great young talented players . Its something we all dreamed of, my dad saw the Aguerooooooooo but didnt see the Centurion's, my dad didnt like my 93:20 tattoo lol.
But like my late dad I carry on with the thought yet even beening 3 nil up with 2 minutes to go this could all go tits up lol, much to my lads amusement.
This is another of my rambles trying to say how great it is to be a Citizen, what great owners we have. And I feel so privileged and proud that those players choose City to give their best of their careers to us.
We are so lucky.
