Riyad Mahrez

Manchester City broke their club record to sign Riyad Mahrez this summer, which is a testament to how crucial to a team Mahrez can be. Pep Guardiola is a big fan of players like Mahrez and it's easy to see why: his silky footwork and speed is something to be admired. He was also one of the main reasons why Leicester won the Premier League title in 2015/2016.

City had walked away from a deal for the Algerian in January after they were put off by Leicester's valuation of the winger. Leicester had demanded around £95m for Mahrez, which Guardiola swiftly walked away from, calling it "crazy".
