James Milner is very much a required player at Manchester City according to Manuel Pellegrini.
The England midfielder, 29, is out of contract in the summer but City are determined to secure his services as Pellegrini feels he is an extremely important player for the reigning Premier League champions.
"It would be very difficult to find a more complete player than Milner," Pellegrini told the Daily Mail and Guardian.
"There are players who are better technically. There are quicker players. There are players who head the ball better.
"But show me a player who does all the things that Milner does well and there isn't one. And whatever position I put him in he plays well."
