[Blue>Red]

I'm 20 so only really started supporting City and understanding football in the late 90's early 00's so my top 5 are;

1. - Richard Dunne
2. - Shaun Goater
3. - Shaun Wright-Phillips
4. - Elano
5. - Micah Richards

Im 20, and would have this exact list, apart from swapping elano for dickov. Considering Micah still plays for us its hard to term him legend till he doesnt, but the fact hes been playing for a fair portion of my city supporting life and turned out to be as good as he is now gets him in there

Elano in any list is so ludicrous it's scary. But I suppose it is just somebody's opinion.

"And on you're left we have our hall of fame South American contingent of Elano, Jo, Robinho and Tevez".

1) The King
2) Buzzer
3) Franny
4) Trautman
5) Doyle

ps which prat put elano?????!!!!!!! And,before putting down Micah Richards - watch some past City beetamax videos................Book was a legend full back, what's Richards ever done?
