As we enter the final two months of another thrilling campaign, stats provider Opta have shared our player numbers in several key areas.
They take in everything from minutes played, possession won, tackles made - and everything in-between.
So, here are the leading five player contributions in each of the 10 categories - and this is representative of all the competitions we have taken part in this campaign.
Minutes Played
3300 - Phil Foden
3275 - Kyle Walker
3168 - Rodrigo
3124 - Ederson
2933 - Ruben Dias
So Phil Foden has played more minutes this season than any other City player.
He’s had 25 minutes more than skipper Kyle Walker, 132 more than Rodrigo and 176 ahead of Ederson.
With Ruben Dias on 2933, these numbers represent the five most used players this season.
Goals + Assists
35 - Erling Haaland
28 - Phil Foden
28 - Julian Alvarez
16 - Rodrigo
15 - Bernardo
The combined list of goals and assists highlights the players who have been most productive scoring and setting up goals for their team-mates.
Erling Haaland’s 29 goals so far would have propelled him to the summit alone, but his six assists keep him well out in front.
Foden and Julian Alvarez are both having fine campaigns, with strong contributions from Rodrigo and Bernardo.
Goals
29 - Erling Haaland
18 - Phil Foden
18 - Julian Alvarez
16 - Bernardo
10 -Rodrigo
No surprises here.
Erling Haaland may have missed two months with a foot injury, but he is way out in front in the goal-scoring stakes with 29 to date – and if City were to progress to two finals, there is potentially 17 more games of this campaign still to play.
Foden’s best scoring campaign yet continues with 18, while Alvarez has a more than decent 16 to his name.
Only one other City star has reached double figures this season – Bernardo – with 10 goals.
Assists
12 - Kevin De Bruyne
12 - Julian Alvarez
10 - Phil Foden
9 - Rodrigo
6 - Jeremy Doku/Erling Haaland
This list is pretty special – Kevin De Bruyne tops the assists list with 12 from just 14 games.

Given KDB has missed five months of the campaign, that is an incredible return and illustrates just how important his contribution will be in the final two months of the season.
Alvarez is also on 12, with Foden making another list top 5 for his 10 assists.
Rodrigo’s importance all over the pitch is also highlighted with his nine assists to date.
Chances Created
86 - Phil Foden
72 - Bernardo
59 - Rodrigo
44 - Jack Grealish
No City player has created more opportunities than Alvarez so far – though Foden is just two behind the Argentine’s total of 88.
It’s no surprise to see Bernardo high on the list with 72, but again Rodrigo features highly having made 59 chances for his team-mates to score.
Despite a season disrupted by injury, Jack Grealish’s 44 opportunities created underscores his importance to the team.
Shooting Accuracy
81.3% - Jack Grealish
75% - John Stones
67.1% - Phil Foden
62% - Julian Alvarez
61.2% - Erling Haaland
And Jack tops the shooting accuracy charts at City thus far.
His 81.3% means that 8 out of 10 shots find the target – with England team-mates John Stones and Foden second and third on the accuracy list.
The more shots you have, the likelier your percentage will be lower – as proved by the prolific Haaland who has had 141 shots with 61.2% on target.
Interceptions
33 - Ruben Dias
30 - Josko Gvardiol
20 - Bernardo
29 - Manuel Akanji
28 - Rodrigo
A vital stat in any Pep Guardiola side in the process of turnovers and transitions.
Ruben Dias tops this list with 33, with Josko Gvardiol and Bernardo both just three interceptions fewer.
There’s no surprise to find Manuel Akanji and, of course, Rodrigo also high on the list with 29 and 28 respectively.
Possession won
242 - Rodrigo
191 - Kyle Walker
157 - Josko Gvardiol
152 - Manuel Akanji
150 - Nathan Ake - 150
As with interceptions, Pep would rank this discipline as another crucial part of his team’s processes.
And our Spanish colossus is far and away the leader in this list with 242 – though winning possession is a vital part of any midfield anchor’s remit.
Kyle Walker, also having a stellar campaign, with 191 the most of any of our defenders.
Gvardiol, Akanji and Nathan Ake have all made 150-plus actions that have won the ball back for the team.
Tackles
75 - Rodrigo
56 - Bernardo
40 - Kyle Walker
39 - Ruben Dias
39 - Nathan Ake
Rodrigo’s 75 tackles may not be a surprise leader in this top 5, but winger Bernardo’s 56 is evidence (if needed!) of the Portuguese’s tireless efforts for the team.
There are few wingers – or attacking midfielders who can claim to have made so many successful challenges, but that work ethic is evident every time he pulls on a sky blue jersey.
Walker, Dias and Ake are all separated by just one tackle.
Dribbles completed
99 - Jeremy Doku
58 - Phil Foden
42 - Rodrigo
37 - Bernardo
30 - Matheus Nunes
Our final contributions list is the dribbling category.
Jeremy Doku’s dribble stats were among the best in Europe prior to joining City and that he has completed 99 since arriving at the Club is proof of this exciting winger’s mesmeric abilities.
Foden’s 58 is impressive enough, but who would have thought Rodrigo would appear on this list as well?
His 42 completed dribbles back up Pep Guardiola’s assertion that Rodrigo is one of the most complete midfielders in world football.
Bernardo (37) and Matheus Nunes (30) are also impressive numbers.
