Zack Steffen Four excellent first-half saves gave him a rarity - a City goalkeeper as man of the match 8
Kyle Walker Never switched on - poor for the Leipzig goal, constantly on his heels, and got a stupid red 3
John Stones he needed this game but did himself no favours with poor defending for the goals 4
Nathan Ake Pretty blameless for the goals, but he is not close to Laporte in terms of launching attacks 6
Aleks Zinchenko another who found it hard to raise interest, but the cross for Mahrez was excellent 6
Fernandinho didn't shirk the responsibility of driving City forward, but he looked rusty 6
Ilkay Gundogan tried in vain to get it rolling, but eventually, he became as sloppy as the rest 6
Kevin De Bruyne back to square one for him in terms of finding his rhythm and radar 5
Riyad Mahrez picked up another European goal with a smart header at the far post 6
Phil Foden did not look right, mishitting crosses and showing poor touch - taken off at half time 5
Jack Grealish was anonymous in the false nine role and shifted out to the left to accommodate Sterling 6
Subs
Raheem Sterling
(for Foden ht) haphazard but he changed things 6
Ruben Dias
(for Ake 87) no time to mark
Cole Palmer
(for De Bruyne 87) no time to mark
Not used: Ederson, Carson, Egan-Riley, Palmer, McAtee, Lavia, Wilson-Esbrand
