Without David

Not sure you can teach what Merlin does.
Greatest player I have ever seen in a City shirt.
Will be a very sad day when he leaves.
I know the press and some fans say KDB is the best player in the prem but as much as I love watching Kev play it's not even close. Merlin offers the team so much more.

My favourite in 50-something years of being a Blue.

The answer is...the same way we replaced Yaya. In other words, not in his mirror image but with other highly skilful up-and-coming players.

Not just a fantastic player but a great man also. Does not bear thinking about such a magical player leaving us and is one of us. Looking beyond David I think Bernardo is just getting better and better. His pass to Gundo was exceptional. Also young Foden is starting to look like he belongs right now and is getting stronger. Let’s enjoy merlin whilst we still have him and going to be a sad day.
