Man City vs Everton player ratings as Raheem Sterling and Rodri score and shine

Ederson his biggest problem was the biting Manchester cold, apart from a couple of easy catches 6

Kyle Walker his forceful football kept Everton pegged back, and he was alert to Gray's threat in first half 7

John Stones No threat to deal with, but he won his challenges and his passing was immaculate 7

Aymeric Laporte the pass down the channel to free Foden was superb - no hangover from Palace disaster 7

Joao Cancelo was having a quiet game until his stunning pass teed up Sterling for the opener 8

Rodri kept a firm clamp on the centre of the park, a solid base - and then WHAM! 8

Ilkay Gundogan essential ball retainer, and blossomed as a playmaker as Everton's resistance began to weaken 7

Bernardo Silva not quite his usual frantic self, but still a busy, buzzing menace and on the spot for the third goal 7

Cole Palmer found that sacrificial false nine role tough, but had a couple of classy moments - pass for Bernardo was top 7

Raheem Sterling Fantastic finish capped a display that bristled with threat throughout - thought he had a pen, too 8

Phil Foden he was a big doubt going into the game, and he looked like a payer not functioning at full capacity 6
