Man City: 5 Best Ever Foreign Players

3. Georgi Kinkladze

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I7BuNzATQsw Georgi Kinkladze, if the rumours are to be believed, arrived at Man City because of a video recording that the then chairman Francis Lee had viewed some months earlier. He settled into a team that unfortunately was going through a woeful period to put it mildly. The 95/96 season was a bleak time to watch the Blues, yet Kinkladze shone like a beacon through the dross that was being served up at the time. Some of his solo effort goals need to be watched several times to be assured that no computer trickery has been adopted. One particular effort against Southampton is still a revelation, even after all these years. Just watch the end product when you are convinced that a shot is forthcoming. No way. A sublime chip over goalkeeper Dave Beasant puts the icing on the cake. In today€™s climate of football, it is difficult to believe that Kinkladze stayed with City through two relegations. Maybe that€™s why he is still adored by fans.
