Before you can be recognised as a legend you have to be good, and consistent for many years in the club. KDB is good but time will tell. They also consider other factors such as loyalty to the club, good behaviour and being humble.
many good players come and go without achieving the legend status and its due to the aforementioned reasons.

The next player that will be immortalized at the club is going to be Aguero. he is another legend that has ticked all the box.
Is Cantona not a legend? Did he possesses those qualities there, its all politics

I believe you are talking about Eric Cantona of man united? If i am correct, then cantona is not recognised by Manchester United as a legend. Fans can say whatever they like but as far as man utd is concerned, the only place you can find his name is under the highest goal scorers and anyone can make the list provided you are prolific at scoring goals.

To work for Pep as a player,you must be ready to bend the knee and kiss the ring.All he wants in his teams are yes men with no personality.He had issues with zlatan,etoo and yaya (who mockingly said pep would scratch his head during games for people to call him a genius because he was thinking hard).With or without a statue,football followers know Yaya is a man city legend

Lolz. Jobber man.

Lamp left through the back door, John Terry nko? They could have even made sure he retired at Chelsea, but he went to retire in Aston vill(championship) a a year after. Okay, now just use 3 years to tigh Williams down, they refused. Am certain this caterpillar in the person of azpilicueta won't retire in Chelsea.

I'm a blue fan too o
a Chelsea fan but a poor football fan.
once upon a time totti left Roma, Rooney left manU. even Pele left new York cosmos, dinho left Barca. wtf u saying because dey left so we don't love dem? u be joker. put Ur Google to use and see how many ex players are staffs today in Chelsea

[quote author=internationalman post=92926171]This guy would get the same respect xavi and Iniesta got if he played for Barcelona or Real Madrid...

The best midfielder in England since his arrival..

Henderson is not even the best midfielder in Liverpool..

If you want to enjoy Spanish players buy their midfielder. why bring Henderson into the convo?... they are talking about mancity and statue not Liv or Henderson

OK you win. But you sh3know those ones you mentioned left because they wanted to, unlike most of those Chelsea men. You and I know how lampard left, likewise this Williams case. William would have loved to retire here.

oh I missed commenting on Willian previously. praise God you are a Chelsea fan makes it easier. is Willian greater than Zola, lampard, Terry,Cole,drogba et al. am sure your answer is no. now these legends for love of the club collected one year deal after age 30(note they were in the form of their life then) without complain. is it not niceness enough to give willain two. is he greater than them? the rule was adjusted for him e still no do am. a free advice my brother weneva you open your company in the future abeg try as much to have policy. I mean rigid policy otherwise every dick or Harry will mess with your business. the summary of the whole thing is " we all will be savages without rules" willain was greedy that's all.

There are 4 legend who have contributed in building a modern mancity team, and in all honesty these 4 legends deserve a status and stories will be told to generations.
Their legendary position and talent are on these order:

1. David silva.... The greatest and most skillful player ever to play in premier league (I rate silva along with iniesta as the most skillful and flexible players the world has ever seen)

2. Kun Aguero........ The greatest striker and the most destructive force premier league has ever see ( it took aguero 200 less games than Allan sherea to reach 200 EPL goal for mancity) ..... Brutality.

3. Yaya Toure......... The greatest and the most energized box to box midfielder the premier league and Europe has ever seen ( he was an energy box, with his solo Yaya Toure tademark run and goal, deadly free kicks, bully defenders and scoring more than 20goals without penalty from midfield in epl)

4. Vincent company (captain fantastic)......... The only man who could captain the 3 legends listed above. He was bullish and stood up for the club in times of trouble.......... One of the best defenders I have ever seen, but because of his injuries, I will not call him the best because he misses so much games.


De-bruyne is not yet a legend....... But among the current mancity stars today, he is the only one closer to joining this legend list if he continues with this current form for mancity for the next 5 years
( Honestly debryune is the only player in the world that has the same attribute to xavi and that is the attribute of AN EAGLE EYES....... These two players can even give Satan an assist from hell) 156 key chances created by debryune this season in epl (who does that),....... Even Newcastle as a club created 144 key chances....... Messi and Muller that got 21 assist each created 68 and 61 key chances respectively.

Did Ronaldo delima win champions league for madrid? Did Buffon win champions league for Juventus........ Are they not legend?.............. It high time you stop displaying stupid behavior

paulolee:
with all due respect, i cant believe that you are saying this, so because he choosed city that he was perfectly suited to settle in than going to barca or Madrid that he may end up sitting on the bench or being loaned out as a flop because of the more competition and expectations in those teams, thats why city built a statue for him??
that means the likes of aguero would get a church, sterling would get a museum and de bruyne would get d biggest statue inside etihad and would be worshiped as a god...
Guy, honestly u no dey watch mancity match............,. I didn't want to involved in your conversation, but I have to talk as to " WHY DID YOU BRING STERLING INTO THIS CONVERSATION?".............. Do you think that Status is for everybody?

Even de-bruyne does not deserve Status yet, as good as he is........ It will take de-bruyne additional 5 to 7 years of consistent performance to get to that legendary status.......

who told Ronaldo is a club lengend at madrid did madrid gave him a statue? buffoon whole is understandable because he stayed with them when they went to relegation so if they gave him a statue is were deserved.

Did you read the article? Kompany would also get a statue. Bruv
Between Silva & kompany......who made more impact at City?......why are they getting equal appreciation?......and why remember kompany now Silva wants to leave?

Ôga Goan and get the coaching badge and get a 1st class team like MCFC and buy Ogbomosho and Nnewi boys to show your love for black players.

Silva has not even done half of what Yaya Toure did. When Yaya was there he baby sat man city midfielders including the so called Silva. They can give silva a statue for all i care but we know who the real MVP is. Mtcheeew and nonsense ingredients
