Man City success and the standards they’ve set is the reason people don’t recognise how good they still are. To only have 1 player from the team that are 2nd in the league and still very well in the conversation for the title seems so strange.

[@palashrawat401]

This suffering from success leading to being underrated phenomenon never happened with peak Real Madrid-Barca. I think it's only because of the financial doping people don't/can't respect City!

[@lukeayara3343]

Bar haaland there isn't another player thats stood out in that team. Mahrez had a good month, rodri has been consistent but not as good as last season, their defence has been changed loads. And guys like foden, grealish, bernardo, gundogan, kdb have been clearly off it compared to the standard they've set from previous seasons.

[@granth1238]

Mines: Ramsdale Zinchenko - Botman - Silva - Trippier Rodri - Odegaard - Bruno Rashford - Haaland - Saka Rodri and Casemiro is so hard, but Rodri purely cos Casemiro had a slow start. By year end, Casemiro will most likely be in. Ramsdales had couple shaky moments but his distribution is unbelievable. Partey has been good but wouldn't have same balance and its Rodri over him so went Bruno to parter. Trippier/White is very close also. Martinelli was likely in before WC but Rashford post WC has been one of the best wingers in the world.

[@cruddyruddi]

Could you do one outside of the top 4, this episode was very biased to those teams (understandably)

[@Akan123]

Come end of season Haaland and Kane would definitely be in a 4-4-2 Kane now takes KDB's spot, there's no way he doesn't get in, Odeegard currently is the only shoe in for Midfield, there's no way Kane who will likely score 30+ PL Goals won't make it in, the Midfield will keep fluctuating till the season ends & Gabriel has definitely edged Saliba at this moment in time

Whys it so hard to believe that players from the team in 4th, only lost once, best defence in the league could possibly be in a tots squad 🤷‍♂️
