Far from the most prolific goal-scorer Manchester City have ever had, Shaun Goater played an important part in helping the club bounce back from a difficult spell at the end of the 1990s.

City were relegated in the 1997/98 season to the third tier of English football, but Goater’s 95 goals in the succeeding five seasons help get the club back to the First Division, and then the Premier League in 2000/01, and then again in 2002/03.

Goater finished his City career with 103 goals from 212 appearances and, although many have scored more than him in the City blue, his goals were crucial in keeping City in and around the Premier League.
