Manchester City have provided the top two moments in Premier League history, according to a new poll.

And the Blues are involved, directly or indirectly, in SIX of the top ten – not bad for a “small club with no history”!

Not surprisingly, the “Agueroooooo” goal that won the title in 2012 was voted the greatest Premier League moment by some distance, taking 7,474 votes in the Sky poll.

But the second-best moment took place less than a fortnight earlier – Vincent Kompany’s towering headed goal to win the derby, followed by his sinew-straining goal celebration in front of the crazed City fans.

And Mario Balotelli’s “Why Always Me?” T-shirt revelation, after sparking the 6-1 rout of the old enemy at Old Trafford, edges into the top ten.

But the City connections do not stop there. It is a fair bet that more than a few Blues voted for two crucial moments in the 2014 title race, even though their team was not involved in the matches.

Steven Gerrard’s slip against Chelsea, which handed City the initiative, and the Scousers’ collapse at Crystal Palace the following week, when they threw away a 3-0 lead, and gave the Blues the chance to put daylight between the top two.
