Hart: 8 - Dominant performance as always, stepped up at the right time. Goal kicks are all over the place though.
Kolarov: 7 - Looked really dangerous going forward. Delivery is still erratic (slowly getting better) but put some really dangerous balls in to the box. A couple of shots that shouldn't have happened though.
Kompany: 7 - Felt he did well but wasn't up to his usual standards and he gave away needless free kicks and was lucky to not give a penalty. Still, a bad day for Kompany is a pretty good day by most standards.
Lescott: 7 - Decent game, should never have let Jones get that chance but was solid overall.
Richards: 7 - Good game but not outstanding. Got forward well and defended well.
De Jong: 10 - Man of the match without a doubt. Top class stuff, unbeatable.
Barry: 7 - Like Richards, solid but not excellent. Can't ask much more
Yaya: 8 - Solid game, good runs. Goal was great and almost scored in the first.
Silva: 8 - Great game, the only reason he didn't get 9 or 10 is because his finishing way way off. Should have scored at LEAST once, if not two or three times.
Balotelli: 9 - Best game I've seen him play. Good runs, great support, good passes. Full of class. Sorensens finger denied him a deserved goal, would have been 10 if went in.
Tevez: 8 - Played well, lead from the front. Good linking with Silva and Balo.
