Marc Guéhi

Guehi has been named in England's World Cup squad and is expected to anchor the back line after a rotational campaign in which the center-back changed clubs midway through the season.

Analysis: Guehi spent most of the season as Crystal Palace's captain before securing the move to the Etihad, earning particular praise for his 124-pass performance in City's 3-0 win at his former club. The defender brings technical quality, aerial dominance and the leadership experience of captaining a top-flight club to what is expected to be one of England's first-choice central defensive partnerships alongside Ezri Konsa at the World Cup. Guehi heads into the tournament in excellent form after an exciting move to one of the Premier League's biggest clubs confirmed his status as one of the best defenders in England.

FA Cup Man of the Match

Guehi recorded one tackle (zero won), two interceptions and seven clearances in Saturday's 1-0 FA Cup win over Chelsea.

Analysis: Guehi had a decent match in the defense Saturday as he and his club held Chelsea to no shots on target, recording one tackle, two interpcetions and seven clearances all by himself. This would earn the defender the Man of the Match award. He remains a key piece of the defense for the club despite some of his recent woes, starting in all 14 league appearances since joining Manchester City.
