Which Manchester City player made the most interceptions?

Rúben Dias, with 3 interceptions. Next: Abdukodir Khusanov 1, Phil Foden 1.

Rúben Dias anchored Manchester City's defense with 3 interceptions. No teammate matched that impact, as Abdukodir Khusanov and Phil Foden recorded just 1 each.

How is the rating calculated?

The rating measures a single match: what the player produced against what they cost, compared with the average for their position in that league and season, and adjusted by position (a 70 for a forward is as hard to get as a 70 for a defender). A normal match is around 50, 70 is already very good and only one in a hundred goes above 80. It is not the NVP, which ranks the whole season.
