Having joined our Academy at Under-9s, Samba has played in countless Manchester derby fixtures.
But our latest outing, which saw City fight from 2-0 down at half-time to win 4-2 against 10-man United, was a personal favourite for Floyd, who got two goals and one assist, and also got to play alongside his brother Tyrone.
MATCH REPORT | UNITED 2-4 CITY
“We’re very very happy because obviously the first half didn’t go as we wanted it to. But we had a good team talk at half-time because the intensity wasn’t there so the second half was much better.
“First half I didn’t really do much, I couldn’t really get on the ball. But in the second half it was much better and managed to get a goal and boost my confidence.
“I’d say maybe the top [derby] because it was a very dramatic game, we went down two goals down but we believed in ourselves to bring it back to 4-2 is brilliant.
“And to contribute was also very nice.”
