Midfielders
Fernandinho, David Silva and Kevin De Bruyne
The midfield is the heart of Manchester City. With likes of David Silva and De Bruyne, the midfield becomes more composed and organised.
Fernandinho plays the role of central defensive midfielder adding an extra man to the defence allowing the full-backs to move upwards and provide attacking threats. Under Pep, the Brazilian put in impressive performances in almost every match by winning tackles and being more composed on the ball.
The midfield area is anchored by Silva often referred as 'The Magician' and De Bruyne. The duo have made key passes in the campaign scoring less and creating more. De Bruyne won the playmaker of the season recording 16 assists to his name and scoring 8 goals in the Premier League.
David Silva managed to score 9 goals and provide 11 assists. The duo were in top 3 number of assists in the campaign. With sublime touches, ball control and key passes by the duo, City can move from one part of the pitch to another within a blink of an eye. Having such creative midfielders can change the complexion of the game and add more balance to the squad.
