LB- Gael Clichy 6
Did a good job keeping Wilfried Zaha quiet, apart from a chance in the opening two minutes.
RM- Jesus Navas 5
Largely ineffectual, and didn’t pose the Palace the problems he should have done. Needed to be replaced.
CM- Yaya Toure 7
His goal showed a glimpse of the player he was, it really was of the highest quality, and not too dissimilar from the crucial brace he bagged against Newcastle on their way to the title in 2012.
CM- Fernandinho 6
Looked a calming influence on the City defence, but made one silly mistake in needlessly giving away the free-kick that led to the second Palace goal.
