Edin respectfully watches City collect their medals. Good job the Lukaku chance didn't fall to him late in the game. One of my favourites & never forget his Everton away performance as we closed in on the title. He took the sting out of the game.

After Sheikh Mansour this is the 2nd most important off the field person in the last 50 years at City Paid the staff out of his own money twice. Ignored the clamour to let Ranson take over. Made decisions that would result in the Sheikh's takeover A City legend is J Wardle

The disrespect shown by @sterling7 to Jack, Phil, Gaby,Ryhad etc as they dared occasionally start before him is disgraceful. Amazed by his comments & sheer arrogance,shows its all about him & him alone. He's ruined a great legacy for the sake of cheap shots.Totally classless

For 55 years I've been watching City and this is one of the best players I have ever seen in sky blue. Dedicated, a true professional who gave his all and was a major factor in us winning 14 trophies. Thanks for everything @Laporte , we wish you all the best. A City legend.
