Sergio Agüero

Completely turned the match around when he came on at the start of the second half. It was surprising to see Sergio left out, even with the short break. Having missed nearly a month from his suspension, fitness could not have been an issue. Either way, he brought energy and direct attacks to the side, which eventually paid off in his pinpoint goal following Sterling’s tumble. Yet again City would struggle to be in the top four if not for the main man.

Rating: 9

John Stones
