Most notable players – Manchester City players with most appearances
Vincent Kompany and David Silva are the two most famous players for Manchester City from the last decade that make the list. I remember one season, Silva broke the record for most consecutive games for Manchester City but then he got sick shortly afterwards. Rumor was , that he still wanted to play!
It’s not a surprise John Terry is so high up in third considering he was at the club for almost 20 years. He is truly, in my opinion the most legendary player at the club.
