What a quality player he was. I always hoped that Lawrie Mac would bring him to The Dell but it wasn’t to be. He wouldn’t look out of place in today’s game. RIP |  | | |  |

Just put t his in a thread I started, as I didn't see this mate:
One of, if not the best player to pull on a City shirt, in many peoples opinions.
A rare talent that could probably still cut it in the modern game.
Rest easy, Nijinsky, The King.
Oh and Martin Buchan, you're still a c_unt. |  |

Def an RIP, what a cr@p time it's been for the loss of top players over the last 12 months or so
Not sure if I'l allowed to say this but he, along with Summerbee and Lee were among the reasons City were among my "2nd teams" when growing up and starting to appreciate football in the late 60's and early 70's
I'm sure Blue and City fans of a certain age will have great memories of the man |  | | |

Completely agree SOG. I don't get sentimental about the passing of people I do not know personally but I do recognise and respect a persons talent etc and he was a player of immense talent who appeared to go about his business quietly and in an unassuming fashion. |  | | |

This is very sad. He was one of my heroes growing up, in fact to the point that I almost chose City over Saints when I was a kid. A great player - Blue will confirm, but I remember his nickname was Najinski - for the horse, not the ballerina - a true thoroughbred. What would he be worth today?
I’d have him in any Saints team. |  |

Ditto Chesh. I am not one of those who has a second team but City in that era was the closest I got. They had a superb team and Bell was pure class. | | | |
