The Attack
Riyad Mahrez
Like a player reborn in recent weeks as his new found commitment to the team was demonstrated again. Constantly menaced the defence and created problems. Switched sides constantly and later played through the middle too. Unlucky not to have found room for a shot.
Player Rating 9
Sergio Aguero
Needs a few games to get back into match sharpness mode but took his chance well today in a moment other strikers would have fluffed. Worked hard too, willing to chase the ball and harry opponents. Great walk off when substituted too.
Player Rating 7
Raheem Sterling
Looks like a player in need of rest, even if that means we have limited cover available. Doing most of the same things as before when he was on fire, just with a little less conviction in the key moments. I would save him for the game at Old Trafford now and let him recover his mojo a bit.
