Gael Clichy highlights leadership gap in current Manchester City squad

Former Manchester City defender Gael Clichy expressed concerns about the current team's leadership. He noted that past successful teams had strong leaders like Vincent Kompany and Nigel De Jong, which he feels are lacking in today's squad. Clichy's comments followed a recent match where City squandered a three-goal lead against Feyenoord, drawing 3-3. He questioned the presence of strong personalities on the pitch and in the dressing room, despite Kevin De Bruyne's role as a vice-captain. This season, City captain Kyle Walker leads a team with limited leadership options due to injuries affecting several vice-captains, including De Bruyne. Clichy believes these absences impact the team's ability to recover from setbacks.
