Left Back – Gael Clichy

The 31-year-old Frenchman has been seeing some starts recently under Guardiola and will likely start at left-back tomorrow at the Emirates. He is a defensive-minded player that also isn’t afraid to get into the team’s attacks. Clichy may not be in the future plans for Manchester City, but he surely has done a good job over the years he has been here. Alex Kolarov has rotated with him at left-back, but Clichy deserves another start tomorrow.
