Pep Guardiola's side have sealed the Premier League besides winning the League Cup. In a season, where they have been in a different dimension altogether, picking three contenders was a tough nut to crack, given a lot of them delivered the goods.
Kevin De Bruyne has been extraordinary

The player also has scored 11 goals across all competitions.
David Silva has given it all
With De Bruyne fighting for the Premier League Player of the Year against Salah, no one should forget the contribution of David Silva. The Spaniard has 11 assists in the Premier League besides scoring nine goals across all tourneys. He battled personal family issues and yet travelled from Spain to Manchester to fight for his club. He has been the backbone of this team.
Sergio Aguero: The sharp poacher
He has been a goal-machine for City over the years and became the highest scorer for the club earlier this season. One of the best strikers in the world, Aguero has been amongst the top in scoring goals aplenty and this season was no different. 21 goals in the EPL, besides a total of 30 overall makes Aguero a serious contender for the award.
