TEAMtalk: How did you come to support your club and what are your favourite memories from your time as a fan?
Blanco: I had MOTD posters in my bedroom wall most were my brothers, I had Robinho, I loved his showboating so when he moved to city I followed. My 2nd favourite moment was when we beat Man Utd 6-1 at their place; that was a shambles!! But the most memorable moment was ‘Agueroooooooooooooo’, the goal against QPR to win us the league. I was watching that match at a friend’s house and their family are all United supporters, so it make that moment even more glorious!
TEAMtalk: Who have been your favourite 5 players for your club? (Historically or currently)
Blanco: They all have to be from the Sheikh Mansour era, so [Vincent] Kompany, David Silva, Aguero, Yaya Toure, [Mario] Balotelli. They are not my best but they are my favourites!
TEAMtalk: What do you make of the current team? What are your hopes for the season?
Blanco: Liverpool are running away with the title this season, unless they suffer some major injuries. We have a defensive problem with [Aymeric] Laporte & [Oleksander] Zinchenko out, [Nicolas] Otemendi is not good enough and I think John Stones needs more work. We need our minds set on the Champions League I think.
TEAMtalk: Everyone has a soft spot for another team. Who’s yours and why?
Blanco: Leicester City. They unfairly sacked Claudio Raneiri and because of the sad passing for their owner. Their 2015-16 title win was magical…they have/had some of the most respectable players – how could anyone not love them, c’mon!

TEAMtalk: What’s going on for you as an artist at the moment?
