Manchester City won last season's league competition with 100 points, and they have begun this year's campaign on a good note after winning against Chelsea in the Community Shield match.

As last season's champions, City enter this year's competition with huge expectations, and they have spent staggering fees to augment their team squad. They have lured Riyad Mahrez from Leicester City to further bolster their attack which was the most prolific among all teams last season, netting 106 goals.

As a team that attacks strongly from the right and left wings, City will benefit immensely from the purchase of Mahrez, a player with strong dribbling abilities.

Also, they always had a strong presence in the opposing team's half, with 34% of all play happening in the half of the opposition. With such strong dominance on the pitch, City remain the most offensive side in the Premier League and are strong contenders for the league title in the upcoming season.
