CDM) Michael Carrick – 8
A player Man City are lacking, Carrick put his foot on the ball and dictated proceedings until he went off with an injury which could be a big blow for Louis van Gaal.
CM) Ander Herrera – 7
Compliments Carrick very well and has improved physically since he arrived in England and put in a lot of effort in midfield to combat Yaya Toure and Fernandinho.
AMC) Marouane Fellaini – 8
Fellaini produced another top-level performance and his continuous runs off Yaya Toure bewildered the Man City man.
