Manchester City 1-0 Chelsea: Player Ratings

Chelsea

It was a disastrous game for Hazard

Thibaut Courtois- 6/10

Courtois could have done better if he had stayed on his feet to save Bernardo Silva's weak footed shot that gave City a 1-0 lead.

Cesar Azpilicueta- 7/10

The Chelsea captain made an important block on the line of Leroy Sane's shot in the first half to prevent City from taking the lead. He finished the game with a total of 3 tackles and 3 clearances.

Andreas Christensen- 6.5/10

The Dane was at fault as his failed clearance from a Kevin De Bruyne long ball deflected of Azpilicueta which led to the opening goal.

Antonio Rudiger- 7/10

Rudiger was careless in the first half, making as many as 3 fouls. He eventually got a yellow card for a foul on Bernardo Silva. Despite that, he was a rock on the left side of the back three.

Victor Moses- 5.5/10

Moses had a great chance to play the ball across but instead took the shot missing the target badly. He did not have an impact going forward as he did not see much of the ball.

Cesc Fabregas- 5/10

It was a bad game for Fabregas as he only had a pass completion rate of 76%. He did play the ball forward which was squandered by Victor Moses when his shot went way off target.

Danny Drinkwater- 4/10

It was another bad game for the Leicester midfielder as he failed to have any influence replacing Bakayoko and had only 50 touches.

Marcos Alonso- 5.5/10

The wingback lacked any real threat going as he failed to make any key passes or crosses. He had a shot in the final minute of the game which went off target.

Willian- 5.5/10

It was a quiet game for the Brazilian as he completed only 3 dribbles and a pass completion rate of just 57% and had the fewest touches in the game.

Eden Hazard- 4/10

This has to be one of the worst games that the Belgian has had in a Chelsea shirt. Playing as a false 9, he had only 31 touches throughout the game with zero shots and was dispossessed twice.

Pedro- 4/10

With Hazard playing in the middle, Pedro had his chance of proving himself as a starter. But his team saw very less of the ball and when they did get the ball, the Spaniard lacked in end product.

Giroud could not contribute much coming on in the 78th minute.

Emerson replaced Pedro in the 82nd minute.
