Man City player ratings vs Everton as Ilkay Gundogan and Kyle Walker excellent

Ederson: A few troubling moments but did enough to keep what is a rare clean sheet at the moment. 7

Walker: Made two important interceptions when the game was goalless, using his pace to good effect. 8

Dias: Kept City calm in a testing opening 30 minutes and allowed very little to get near Ederson. 7

Laporte: Turned too easily by Calvert-Lewin on the edge of the box and his game more notable for the scraps he got involved in. 6

Akanji: Added central midfield to the list of positions he has played this season, showing remarkable versatility. 7

Rodri: Didn't look entirely comfortable with rotating partners alongside him but still showed his class. 7

Gundogan: A masterclass from midfield, scoring twice and setting another up. 9

Alvarez: Got into some good positions but made poor decisions on the ball whenever he did. 5

Mahrez: Another start, another assist in a productive season. Some lovely touches, although impact faded. 7

Foden: Some impressive, direct runs that will have made Guardiola think ahead of his Real selection. 7

Haaland: Barely had a kick but was a handful all afternoon and got on the scoresheet. 7

Grealish (for Haaland, 77) Kept the ball, as he does so well. 6

Bernardo (for Gundogan, 77) Came into the middle to help a struggling Rodri. 6

Phillips (for Rodri, 88)

Gomez (for Dias, 90)

Not used: Ortega, Stones, Lewis, De Bruyne, Palmer,
