liverpool and city are our only proper rivals.
Arsenal come close but post 2005, we've hardly ever been competing on an equal footing for trophies.
Every game v liverpool or city is big regardless of the actual football situation at the time.

City.
Born too late to experience the Arsenal rivalry and I always liked Wenger a lot anyways. Also, no one from that team is still there, obviously.

We’re only rivals with Liverpool nowadays due to the respective trophy hauls. The periods where we’ve actually battled them for said trophies have been rare and brief. Either they’re shit or we’re shit. Although at the moment it’s starting to look like we’re both shit.
When it comes to on the pitch (and in the tunnel) there has never been a rivalry more intense than with Arsenal during the Sir Alex and Wenger years but it doesn’t really exist now. I’d still rather Arsenal win the league this year over City, though. There’s no rivalry with City, I’ve just had enough of their cheating prospering now it’s out in the open.

My main rival is City. Liverpool second.
The only reason I prefer City winning than Liverpool is the trophy count.

Leeds. I live in bandit country and get it in the neck regularly off them. Their hatred of United is probably worse than any other club that hates United. I know one lad- a painter decorator- refuses to do any jobs where red paint is required. When his missus bought some pegs, he threw out all the red ones. Mental behaviour if you ask me. Growing up in Manchester with lots (well a few) of City fans wasn’t as bad as it is with this lot. I’ve a few Liverpool supporting mates as well and we seem to have a laugh about things so it’s a bit of give and take with them. Good lads if I’m honest. I think it’s the internet that brings the worst out in them. So after Leeds I’d go Arsenal. Never liked them- even before the Fergie Wenger rivalry.
Arsenal because I grew up in London and most of my football watching friends support Arsenal
They know what they did.
Grew during the rivalry with Arsenal, really hated them a lot in the 90's and early 2000' but once they turned shit, I've stopped caring. I never even considered City a rival back then.
Now, after Liverpool it must be City.

City for sure, I've started watching football somewhere around '05 when I was 9-10 years old so Arsenal sucked for almost the entirety of my life. I'm also not born in England so if I would have been in school with or raised around kids who supported Arsenal it might have been different.
Part of me wants to say Barca though
I hate them with every ounce of my being thanks to '09 and '11.

I hate them with every ounce of my being thanks to '09 and '11.City but since the oil money came I don't really care what they win despite being our rivals, if that makes sense. Liverpool, whilst they are far and away number one on this list, at least I respect them.
Everybody else, Arsenal, Chelsea, whoever, are just a dislike at a point in time where we competed with them.

Liverpool
Then City, Arsenal, Chelsea.

Yep, the thing that annoys me most about City is they don't particularly annoy me these days. I'd prefer to hate them in all honesty but I just can't seem to give a feck about anything they do.
Liverpool obviously no 1
Then Arsenal , Leeds and City in no particular order
I also particularly despise West Ham
Chelsea never bothered me much though, I have a sort of grudging respect for their ability to collect assorted trophies, often at the expense of the feck*rs listed above.
