Man City player ratings as Phil Foden and Fernandinho crush Peterborough in FA Cup

Ederson

Vital save from Fuchs at 0-0 and Szmodics to keep it 2-0 - busier than usual! 7

Joao Cancelo

Relished switching to the less muddy side in the second-half and it showed in his improved game. 7

Ruben Dias

Strong enough in the 45 minutes he played but the cross he tried was abysmal! 6

Nathan Ake

Nearly caught out by Fuchs and looked uncertain until subbed at half-time. 5

Oleksandr Zinchenko

Had a distracted first half-hour but settled down to play his part in the win. 6

Fernandinho

The master has still got it - solid interventions, stroking the ball around and running the show. 8

Ilkay Gundogan

Came close to two first-half goals and was always trying to make things happen. 7

Phil Foden

Burst into life in the second-half to claim two assists and secure the quarter-final spot. 8

Riyad Mahrez

Another fabulous finish to break the deadlock - he liked being out of the mud, too. 7

Gabriel Jesus

Back in his old striking role. He looked short of match practice, frustrated and frustrating. 5

Jack Grealish

Had just been neat and ineffective until his class showed with his goal. 7

Subs

John Stones

(For Dias half-time) Enhanced the attack, strangely. 7

Aymeric Laporte

(For Ake half-time) Much more solid. 7

Not used: Carson, Slicker, Sterling, Rodri, De Bruyne, Bernardo
