Pep Guardiola may hold the burden of trying to remotivate his players after more Champions League heartbreak, but the Manchester City leadership group must also take on added responsibility ahead of the final four games of the season.
Upon his arrival at the Etihad Stadium in 2016, one of the first things the Catalan did was establish a leadership group. Instead of having just one club captain, the idea of having a core group of leaders allows big decisions to be made amongst the squad a lot easier.
Vincent Kompany and then David Silva took on the role of permanent captain before their respective departures, with Fernandinho taking on the mantle since then. Alongside the Brazilian, a host of key City players have formed this esteemed group.
