Benjamin Mendy has won the over the fans

Benjamin Mendy is a fan favourite, both for his on-field and off-field performances. The Frenchman was pivotal in Monaco's Ligue 1 title winning campaign, and was part of the side which knocked Manchester City out over two legs in the Champions League.

That defeat against Monaco was enough for Pep Guardiola to sign Mendy next season at a reported fee of £52 million, which was a record for a defender.

The Frenchman lasted only a handful of games last season before sustaining a season-ending injury, but in this campaign, he has been exceptional.

Mendy regularly makes powerful runs forward, and his fast crosses are a nightmare for any defender. The speed and precision with which Benjamin Mendy delivers his crosses in requires only a touch from a striker to score.

Moreover, his strength makes it nearly impossible to stop him from making those runs. Pep Guardiola has praised Mendy for his performances, and explained how he was missed last season.

The arrival of a fully fit Mendy has only made this seemingly unbeatable City side even stronger, and it could go a long way in them successfully defending their Premier League title.
