How many of you saw current West Ham United defender and Manchester City true Blue, Pablo Zabaleta at the Etihad on Sunday?

Making 200 plus Manchester City appearances over a nine-year period Pablo sits firmly as one of the best and most loyal players ever to grace the hallowed MCFC turf.
Congratulation to my former team @ManCity for winning the @premierleague 17/18 🏆Best team in the league ⚽️ Blue moon is rising in Manchester tonight. 💙💙💙

Having left City on a free at the end of last season, Pablo has very quickly become a West Ham fans favourite. The thing is, the Argentine is well and truly an adopted Manc and will remain one until the end of his days – simples!
Great to be back at the Etihad Stadium and good to see @ManCity fans again. Thank you very much for your warm reception 💙Also a special mention to the @WestHamUtd fans travelling for your great support. Safe journey back home #COYI ⚒ pic.twitter.com/hmUZQXkhrz

Should Pablo decide to hang up his playing boots when his West Ham contract expires in May 2019, I wonder if City will encourage him to make a return, perhaps as an ambassador, coach or invite him to take up some other role?
The final CITYTV interview.
Congratulations @pablo_zabaleta and your wife Christel Castaño on the birth of your son Asier! New Mancunian. pic.twitter.com/JQd3W0v64t
