FERNANDINHO definitely doesn't get the rave headlines every week but he certainly does a very important job in Manchester City's side.
Primarily a holding midfielder, he has also shown he can find the back of the net in what has been an impressive debut season in the Premier League.
A good passer of the ball, he was one of City's standout players against Palace in December, not that there were many to choose from that day following the Eagles' impressive display.
We all know Yaya Toure is a good player and his goal tally has been evident this season, mostly due to the fact he's been allowed to roam forward a lot more thanks to Fernandinho behind him.
Of course, Sergio Aguero is a huge threat and one to watch this Sunday on his return from injury but Fernandinho is what Mile Jedinak is to Palace. An important cog in the side.
