First Center Midfielder – David Silva
Paired with De Bruyne, Silva has been able to provide a lot of distribution in midfield which has helped the team become more dominant. At 31, his future is in doubt but his value right now to the team is ever so important. Five goals and six assists in all comps shows his versatility, while he constantly helps the team in their build-up play. Silva is a must start every time for Manchester City.
