Player ratings: Manchester City 4-1 Arsenal

Arsenal fell way short of Manchester City’s quality at The Etihad on Wednesday night, in an evening where it appeared their dreams of a Premier League title slipped away. 

Arsenal were simply outclassed and first-half goals from Kevin De Bruyne and John Stones took the game away from the Gunners.

De Bruyne got his second and City’s third early in the second half. Rob Holding’s late goal was nothing but a consolation. Erling Haaland rubbed salt in the wounds with a fourth right at the end of the game.
