Manchester City vs Liverpool: 5 players who could decide the tie

#4 Georginio Wijnaldum

Gini Wijnaldum is likely to replace Jordan Henderson in the starting line-up

Liverpool have a shortage of midfielders as they'll be without Jordan Henderson and Emre Can for the second leg at the Etihad. That gives Gini Wijnaldum a chance to start the game and help Liverpool secure a place in the semi-finals.

The Dutch international was a part of Liverpool's starting line-up for the Merseyside derby and was one of Liverpool's best performers during the game. He worked tirelessly in the middle of the park and won many tackles for the Reds. His positioning and passing was impressive as well and completed 94% of his passes.

Wijnaldum will have a huge role to play against Manchester City and the former Newcastle man needs to be at the top of his game to prevent Kevin de Bruyne and David Silva from controlling the game.
