Ederson

Hardly troubled from start to finish. Won’t have an easier night Stones

Deployed in unfamiliar right-back slot but did not look uncomforta­ble Otamendi

Booked Bedrock of the defence. As punishing as he always is Laporte Solid and composed performanc­e, topped off with a rare goal Mendy Defended with aplomb and charged forward at every opportunit­y

De Bruyne

First start since the World Cup. Looked rusty, glimpses of class Fernandinh­o

Did everything with composure and class. Is the foundation of team Silva

Hit woodwork twice and scored first. A Rolls Royce performanc­e Mahrez

Blew two first-half chances and wasteful in possession.

Jesus

Wasted chance after chance Sergio Aguero would have buried

Sterling

Flitted in and out of the game from start to finish

SUBS: Bernardo Silva (De Bruyne 69) 7; Walker (Stones 80) 6; Foden (Jesus 87)
