Jack and Bernardo both superb, but Bernardo was on a different level today. The whole team performance was excellent, particularly second half. That could have been and perhaps should have been another "sick swan". Brilliant, great day to be a Blue.
Grealish, Walker and Bernardo outstanding. Rodri dependable as ever. All the back "four" were excellent. But my man of the match went to Bernardo, who was out of this world, Grealish would have been next of the list.
Went for Dias but could equally have chosen Bernardo, Grealish or Ederson. Great performance from all of them. Dias block around 75 minutes, doing the splits and still managing to block the cross - wow.
Ortega, comfortably for me. However, as others have said, that was easily Jack Grealish's best game for us. But for a shot-stopping masterclass, Jack would have won MotM for me.
Bernardo for me. Like the Duracell bunny this afternoon - never stopped. I'm not sure that the was blade of grass he didn't cover today, he was completely relentless. KDB a close second after that, particularly late on in the game. Great performance by the team, particularly after going down to 10.
Went for Alvarez. Worked non-stop from the get-go tonight. Deserved his two goals and the second was fabulously taken. Really unlucky not to get a hattrick with the shot against the post. It would have been easy to choose Haaland for his perfect hattrick, but just sheer persistence and outright...
De Bruyne for me, but Zin, Grealish, Sterling and Gundo all excellent. Thought Cancelo looked a bit more like the form he was showing earlier in the season too. All around, a great team performance and a what a bounce back from midweek's disappointment.
Hugely frustrating that. Thought we battered them first half but for a proper finisher, we're 3, 4 or 5 up at half time. Two points lost, but still in our hands.
Gave it to Grealish. Comfortably his best game for us. Looked excellent in the second half in particular when he played more time in the 8 or 10 position rather than tight to the touchline like he did in the first. Kev looked close to his best for much of the game. Two goals and an assist would...
Went for Bernardo, but could happily have given it to Raz, Laporte, Stones or Rodri who were all excellent. Really important save from Ederson too, which shouldn't be forgotten about.
Although we dominated the game, it felt really tense in the stands today. A really tough game. God I'd hate to watch Chelsea week in, week out if that's the limit of their ambition - especially given the players that they have. I found their tactics bizarre - they needed to win that today. The...
