I know people are all down on Pep after yesterday, but it's a true testament of his greatness that he got Ota playing in a system that got him into team of the season during the Centurions season. He was outstanding, his passing was much improved and he rarely did his stupid diving in. Of course after years of doing that, when things aren't going so well for him he would obviously retreat to the same thing. Decent haul from The General:

Muchas gracias Nico. Great servant who always did his best and never complained about playing time. An underrated passer out from defence too. Fantastic 17/18 season especially. All the very best at Benfica.

 

[El Gringo]

Thanks Otters, good luck at Benfica. 15 million is good business for City

Otamendi was immense at times ... hence his getting into "Team of the Season" in both Spain and England, and in the Copa America, etc.

He was a warrior for us and showed a lot of heart. The 17/18 season he was immense.
Thank you general and best of luck at Benfica.

And a master of the art of trying to tackle whilst sat on his ass

Never one to pull out of a tackle , wish him all the best at Benfica
