We love opinions here in the Transfer Tavern, though sometimes the views of some fans at the bar can leave us questioning their sanity.

Nevertheless a discussion about who we like as a footballer and who we don't think is much good, is always welcome and is what makes the game so watchable.

In recent years we've seen Manchester City fans go from discussing the iconic Shaun Goater to the perhaps even more iconic, Sergio Aguero in a dramatic turnaround of their fortunes.

Some of them still struggle to comprehend players like the Argentine play for their club and naturally, rate him as one of their best ever.

They're quite right to do so with Aguero, but some City players seem to get off lightly simply because they are part of this new era at the club.

There's some players at the Etihad that really aren't that good anyway or still have quite a bit to prove.

Our landlord can think of some for sure, here are THREE of them...

Gael Clichy

The left-back came through at Arsenal dubbed by our landlord as the next Ashley Cole, but hasn't got anywhere near that level.

He found his way to Manchester City though and somehow still has a place in the side.

He's an okay left-back but there are many out there who would be better for City, whilst it also speaks volumes that he still has to battle Patrice Evra for the French starting spot despite him being 35.

Claudio Bravo

Claudio Bravo

The way Joe Hart has not even been given a chance to prove himself to Pep Guardiola suggests the Chilean international Bravo is light-years ahead of the Englishmanm but truth be known he's not.

He might be slightly better than Hart with his feet but apart from that there isn't much to note, and you have to say to sign a goalkeeper who is 33 and appear so desperate to want him, is a tad odd.

Bacary Sagna

The French right-back wasn't great at Arsenal yet somehow secured a move to Manchester City.

He has pace and power in abundance, but defensively there are a lot better out there and that's what seems to be overlooked, wrongly, at the moment with full-backs.

He shouldn't really get near the team when Pablo Zabaleta is fit, but sometimes does and that in itself is a complete mystery.
