    City enjoy international spotlight
    View quote in context »
    For the first time in over 30 years, three City players started for England on Wednesday night: Gareth Barry, Wayne Bridge and Shaun Wright-Phillips. "It shows how far City have come ... There were a few players missing but we had three players out performing really well which is a sign of where we're going. It can only be good for Manchester City if we've got a good nucleus of players in the England squad. It was good to be able to link up with Wayne and Shaun down the left hand side -- we know each other's games pretty well." It is no coincidence the last time City players were well represented with the national side was also the last time they were competing for the league title (finishing fourth in 1977-78).
