00:00 The artist is a genius to make it look like me at any rate, but at the end of the day it is.

00:04 It's very good, it's even got my nose in the right length.

00:07 But it's really a privilege to be able to be involved in a situation like that,

00:12 to be able to have a statue built outside a football ground with a great football club.

00:18 To be part of that particular club is unbelievable.

00:21 I hope they'll start, I hope what it does is makes people dig into the history of Manchester City,

00:27 of football and realise that actually the club is not just today's club,

00:33 it's a club of nearly 100 years or more.

00:38 It always does, you know, but we were part of a team, the Ebel and Summerby.

00:43 The thing about it is that we had a fantastic manager and coach at that particular time,

00:49 so we had a superb side and we played really well.

00:52 You're talking about two exceptional players there who aren't here today,

00:56 but were part of a really top side, and we were a top side.

01:01 We won all the trophies and we did things and we enjoyed it.

01:04 We enjoyed our football. Joe Mercer was a great manager,

01:07 Malcolm Alisson was probably one of the best coaches you'll ever see, simple as that.
