Nicolás Otamendi
The only defender that tops Kolarov this season is Otamendi. Nothing spectacular today, but what City need most in defense is consistently and protection. Nicolas has started most every match for City this year, and was able to go again after the short turnaround. His decision making is key as Bravo still needs time to adapt to the Premier League.
