Top 10 players of the Mansour era

Kompany
Aguero
Silva
Yaya
Zabaleta
Hart
Dzeko
Fernandinho
De Bruyne
Sterling
The old ones put the foundation stone for where we are now. I Don t think we would talk about de Bruyne if it weren't for Kompany, Silva, Aguero, Yaya.
 
D Silva the greatest.
Yaya the most powerful.
Kompany the most inspirational.
Aguero the most deadly.
Fernandinho the most reliable.
Super Kev the king of the assist.
Tevez the (Welcome to Manchester) poster boy.
Pab Zab the most battle-hardened.
Roberto Mancini without him none of this would have happened.
Phil Foden the heir apparent.
 
I struggle with these ranking jobs, so I'll make one nomination only.
Unsung Hero of the Mansour era:
GAZ BAZ.
I loved Gareth Barry at City.

Proper footballer.

I always used to think the educated among us preferred Barry, and the knuckle draggers De Jong.

No offence to De Jong, I liked the fella, there were just some idiotic fans that wanted him to start over Barry every week because he went through people, when our attacks always started with Barry.
 
From an outsider perspective, based on what I've seen:

1. Kompany
2. Aguero
3. De Bruyne (my fave)
4. Yaya Touré
5. Silva
6. Sterling
7. Sané
8. Dzeko
9. Hart
10. Tevez

Barry was underrated. He was a bit hit-and-miss for us under Martinez but he was greatly missed when he left us.
 
I love GazBaz as much as anyone but this is a very competitive list. I left out Nasri, Sané, Džeko, Ederson and others.
 
Surely Balotelli has to be in for the Derby moment and the assist.
His brilliant moments were few and far between, yes they were important but we've had 10 far better players than him in this era.
