When Pep Guardiola decided to join Manchester City, many experts believed he has to change his midfield tactics to suit the physical demands of the Premier League. 4 years later, Guardiola’s short, quick and creative midfielders are ruling England while the other clubs have still not found a way to stop City’s machine-like midfield.

Fernandinho and Rodri are among the most solid defensive midfielders in Europe and Rodri is the third most accurate passer in the League with a success percentage of 92. Kevin De Bruyne is arguably the best player in the League this season with nine assists. His incredible right foot keeps producing astonishing crosses and defence splitting passes.

David Silva and Bernardo Silva are both versatile and the combination plays with full-backs are a nightmare for any team in Europe. Ilkay Gundogan has a keen eye for goal and always makes threatening runs into the box to surprise the opposition. This City midfield is easily the best in Europe and when all of them are fit, Guardiola’s side is almost invincible.
