Next up in our summer series of team-by-team analysis of the 2016/17 campaign are Manchester City.
We start by checking out the team performance levels over the previous campaign to look for any trends of improvement before assessing the Citizens’ standout individuals ahead of the 2017/18 season.
The arrival of Pep Guardiola helped the Etihad side up their points total from 66 to 78 last term, yet they finished some 15 points off the summit for the second successive campaign, claiming third position in the Spaniard’s first year in charge.
City also improved their goal tally, from 71 to 80, which was again the third best on offer, six behind Spurs at the summit.

I'm curious, who would you say are the 'big three' strikers that, (money no object), you'd aim to have in your team?
Currently I see them as Lukaku, Kane, Lacazette.
Kun and Jesus are a close second but may be a case of spread of points between those two.
Struggling to pick two of the big hitters up top, and three just ruins the rest of the squad!
