2. Ali Benarbia
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1BTF6wSihQ Ali Benarbia became a firm favourite with the fans, excelling in the triumphant promotion team that manager Kevin Keegan had set up at Maine Road. Hed honed his game in previous years with AS Monaco, Bordeaux (title winner) and Paris Saint-German, before linking up with another maestro of the midfield Eyal Berkovic. Keegan had been advised that it was impossible to use both playmakers at the same time, but defied all pundits by going Gung Ho and allowing his team to amass an astonishing 108 goals in the opposition nets. Ali Benarbia played his last game for City against FC Barcelona, a friendly to inaugurate the opening of the new stadium in East Manchester. He retired from football, but then, five days later, joined Al-Rayyan of Qatar. Such is football!
