Everton 1-3 Manchester City: 5 Talking Points

#3 Silva and Sané excellent once again

Sané wheels away to celebrate his opener with architect Silva

The pair have flourished this season and frankly, are a joy to watch. Silva has been doing so for many years, to the point where his efforts before this campaign were seemingly under-valued but for Sané, he continues to get better with experience under his belt.

They combined to score the opener after just four minutes, Sané slamming home with aplomb from a tight angle following an intricate passage of passing play from the middle third.

Silva turned provider once more to unselfishly feed Raheem Sterling with a tap-in after a ruthless counter-attack seconds following a rare Everton missed opportunity, which featured none other than Sané himself during the build-up. It was his blistering change of speed which saw him win possession high up the pitch, before releasing the ball in a dangerous area while Everton's backline were still backpedalling.

Between the duo, they had nine key passes and more importantly, were Manchester City's match-winners.
