SILVA- 8/10
Played in a deeper role and helped his defence out regularly. Was a thorn in Barca’s flesh throughout and exploited the gaps between the midfield and defence superbly.
GUNDOGAN- 8.5/10
Back to back braces for the German. Slowly hitting his top form and his Lampard-esque runs into the box are yielding the goals.
De Bruyne- 9/10
Made up for a quiet first half with a scintillating second half with a goal and was instrumental in the third. His impeccable free-kick was a joy to watch. Was tireless yesterday.
STERLING- 8.5/10
Gave Digne a torrid time and ran circles around him. Wrongly denied a penalty and booked.
AGUERO-9/10
Missed out on a goal but was the best player on the pitch. Pep might turn him into something even more special by the looks of it.
SUBSTITUTIONS
Fernando-8/10
Brilliant after coming on for Fernandinho.
Navas-8/10
Excellent impact off the bench.
Nolito- NA/10
Too late to mark.
