BROTHERS IN ARMS<br />

EDIN DZEKO<br />

Striker | 2011-2016<br />

Games 189. Goals 72.<br />

HONOURS<br />

FA Cup 2011 | Premier League<br />

2012 & 2014 | League Cup 2014 |<br />

Community Shield 2012<br />

In 2012, <strong>the</strong> ‘Bosnian Diamond’<br />

wasted no time in making an impact,<br />

scoring four goals in one game against<br />

Tottenham. On <strong>the</strong> final day <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

season he scored an equaliser against<br />

QPR in <strong>the</strong> 92nd minute, before<br />

Sergio Agüero won it for City with<br />

seconds to go – ensuring <strong>the</strong> team<br />

won <strong>the</strong> League title for <strong>the</strong> first time<br />

in 44 years.<br />

ALEXSANDAR KOLAROV<br />

Defender | 2010-17<br />

Games 247. Goals 21.<br />

HONOURS<br />

FA CUP 2011 | Premier League 2012 & 2014 |<br />

League Cup 2014 & 2016 | Community Shield 2012<br />

This tough Serbian left back was famous for his exceptional left foot long<br />

rangers, his mastery <strong>of</strong> set-pieces, inch-perfect crosses, but questionable<br />

singing on Club Christmas videos! City had a few left backs over <strong>the</strong><br />

<strong>decade</strong>, but none had <strong>the</strong> touch and character <strong>of</strong> this man.<br />

‘<br />

Dezko and Kolarov were best friends and partners in crime<br />

throughout <strong>the</strong>ir stay. Here <strong>the</strong>y are celebrating history, when<br />

<strong>the</strong> Club beat United at Old Trafford and Dzeko scored after<br />

that pass from <strong>the</strong> magical David Silva.<br />

Jamie Cooper<br />

EVER RELIABLE<br />

JOLEON LESCOTT<br />

Centre Back | 2009-14<br />

Games 160. Goals 9.<br />

HONOURS<br />

FA Cup 2011 | Premier League 2012 & 2014 | League Cup 2014<br />

During <strong>the</strong> early part <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>decade</strong> Lescott established himself as a vital part<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> defensive unit, building a formidable defensive partnership with Vincent<br />

Kompany. Ever reliable and a true pr<strong>of</strong>essional, he was a significant contributor<br />

to title-winning games.<br />
