LM- David Silva 7
Was City’s best player. The ball appeared to be glued to his feet, and thus he was given extra attention to make sure he couldn’t make the impact he’d have liked.
ST- Edin Dzeko 5
Offered very little before he was taken off. Looks short on confidence, and fed up playing where he is.
ST- Sergio Aguero 6
Pellegrini didn’t help him by pairing him with another striker, and it showed. He – and the team – looked much more threatening when he was on his own, relying on Toure and Silva for support.
Subs
Frank Lampard 6
Brought on for Dzeko but looks out of form, and ready for a break before his move.
Samir Nasri 6
Blew a decent chance late on, but couldn’t have done much worse than Navas.
James Milner 6
Brought on too late to make a difference with his endless energy.
