4Manchester City player ratings
Ederson: Citys star goalkeeper had no chance with Arsenals goal and remained unflappable after conceding. He was also quick to come out of his area to deal with any threat. 6Kyle Walker: Made some strong challenges and pushed City forward. 6Nicolas Otamendi: Rare top-flight start for the centre-back and stood up to the threat of Alexandre Lacazette well. 6Fernandinho: Lined up in the back four but gave the midfield some impetus when City were in possession. Dealt with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang very well. 8Aymeric Laporte: Slotted in well at left-back and created the opening goal with determination and finesse. 8Ilkay Gundogan: His range of passing proved difficult for Arsenal to handle. 7Raheem Sterling: Provided pace and venom out wide and his volleyed pass for Aguero’s second goal was exceptional. 7

Bernd Leno: No chance with City’s first two goals and did his best to keep out the third but to no avail. The Gunners goalkeeper made some decent saves but also had some shaky moments. 6Stephan Lichtsteiner: Caught out by a one-two between Sterling and Gundogan in the build-up to City’s second. The veteran was poor. 4Shkodran Mustafi: Badly out of position for the opening goal, and he looked fortunate not to give away a penalty soon after. 4Laurent Koscielny: Headed Arsenal level early on and while he will be disappointed by the goals conceded, he did do some decent work at the back. 6Nacho Monreal: Provided the flick-on for Koscielny’s goal and did not make any major errors defensively. 6Sead Kolasinac: Made some useful attacking contributions but Arsenal would have wanted more from him in defence. 5Lucas Torreira: Showed his usual grit in midfield and delivered the corner which led to the equaliser. Picked up a booking. 6
