With Yaya confirmed leaving, which of the 2012 Title Winners will you be saddest to see leave?

Good point. This also is interesting in the ongoing ‘Big Club’ debate too. Whenever the Rag/Grief bores start talking about their ‘istory, I always ask them which of City’s best players have they lost without wanting to do so in the last 10 years? (answer - no-one), when the ‘little’ clubs lose their best players when Real/Barca come calling (Ronaldo, Suarez, Torres, Beckham, Coutinho etc)

winds them up a treat
 
Silva without a doubt. My generation grew up watching Colin Bell, who became an iconic figure down the years. Dave will be one for current and future generations of Blues.

This but the saddest I think I'll feel was Zabs going.

In the world of millionaire footballers he was on the terrace with us & we were on the pitch with him.

Yeah didn’t include him as he’s now gone again hard to decide really. There was a time when I felt we’d lose
if Toure, Silva or Kompany were missing. Not quite the same with Zab but he was a great player, fans player and led by example.

Sergio

He may not be the biggest loss but I’ll be the saddest to see him go.

It’s a sign of how many top quality players we have had recently that it’s so hard to choose. How can we say our record scorer and most famous player globally won’t be most missed - madness! Club legend.

Maybe a statue of Kompany, Yaya, Silva and Sergio somewhere in a few years?
 
Silva as a player.

I think Brian Kidd is underrated in his contribution to our achievements and will be missed. A players coach who's been with us for all the good times. The man has an incredible record as an assistant
 
I'm already welling up at the thought of David Silva's last game. Don't think I'll ever see a player quite like him.
 
Silva will be the hardest to replace in the starting eleven but I think the biggest loss to the club will be Kompany.
 
I agree with silva being the best of an amazing foursome that will live forever in the memory.

The thing that slightly perplexes me is that as a group of supporters I like to think we are famous for our player chants, particularly for the players we really love. Yet for the other three and numerous other players past and present we have great songs, alas for the greatest of the lot that is not the case.
 
Vinny

Turned up when we were mehh and rode the wave with us. He's a legend and an absolute role-model off the pitch.. He's one of us, look at the a passion he has when he scores. He'll be with us long after Aguero and Dave have left these shores.

I'd second that. At the time we were accused of buying mercenaries at every turn, they'd never last, our owners would be gone within 5 years...I'd say they've been here longer than the majority of players since I started watching them in the mid 80's and are definitely the best
 
Kompany, out of everyone (even Zaba) he has completely embraced Manchester and especially City. I just can't imagine City without him being there, IMO he HAS to stay at the club in some capacity.
