RM – David Silva – 6
Provided an assist for Aguero’s goal, but for the majority of the game Barcelona’s back-line had his beating. An off colour display and not what we have come to expect from the Spanish winger.
CM – Fernando – 5
Gave the ball away to allow Suarez through on goal and that set the tone for his performance. Never recovered and the defensive midfielder barely made a tackle.
CM James Milner – 6
Started off well, playing a brilliant ball over the top to Edin Dzeko, but faded as the game wore on. A safe pair of hands performing reasonably without ever being outstanding.
LM – Samir Nasri (Fernandinho 61′) – 4
All at sea and failed to rise to the occasion. Shameful work-rate when it mattered, allowing Barcelona to keep possession which they will do with ease and created nothing all game.
