The 2023/24 Premier League ended in a boiling passion, and Manchester City successfully defended their championship with a victory. Now, let's count five key figures who helped Guardiola's team climb to the top of the Premier League again.
Five magic weapons to win
1. Harland: front line killer
Although Harland failed to regain the glory of 36 goals in the Premier League in his first season with Manchester City and missed seven league matches due to injury, his outburst at the end of the season should not be underestimated. He scored nine goals in seven games and locked the golden boot with a total of 27 goals in the season, laying a solid foundation for Manchester City to win the championship.
2. Debrouane: the return of the midfielder magician
After suffering a serious hamstring injury, Debrouane was absent for four and a half months. However, since his return in January, he has quickly regained his form and proved his worth with 10 assists. Together with Fabregas, he has become the only player with six assists in double figures in a single season in the history of the Premier League.
3. Phil Fudden: the rise of a local star
At the age of 23, Forten has stood out from Manchester City's youth training system and achieved a qualitative leap. He not only scored 19 goals, but also sent 8 assists. This outstanding performance not only made him the mainstay of the team, but also won the award of the best player in the Premier League season.
4. Stephen Ortega: The patron saint comes
As a valuable asset introduced for free in 2022, Ortega stepped forward when Edson was absent due to injury, especially in nine Premier League games, including the key victory against Tottenham, demonstrating his strength as a reliable substitute.
5. Rodriguez: the rock of midfield
Rodrigo Hernandez once again proved himself to be an indispensable member of Guadalajara's tactical system. Under his leadership, Manchester City won 74 unbeaten victories in various competitions. His midfield command ability not only made the team more balanced in attack and defense, but also played a key role in the last round of the game against West Ham United, helping the team lock the 3-1 victory and finish the game perfectly.
