# One player City would take from Premier League rivals

Manchester City are currently in a strange predicament, lying in fourth position in the Premier League with a genuine chance of not getting Champions League next season.

For a club of City’s stature and where the club wants to, that is quite frankly not good enough – especially with Pep Guardiola coming in the summer.

But we’ll brush that aside for the time being and propose a hypothetical question.

The teams around City are full of players of a good quality – and many could actually add something to a City side that has become stale and far too predictable for the opposition to suss out.

So we’ve opted to pick a player from each of the top six sides (bar City) who we think would be of use to Manchester City.

There’s a few candidates but we think we’ve just about nailed it.
