A walk in the park for the Citizens. Stone was immense today, same with Bernardo Silva. Poor game from Mahrez, I expected more.
On the other hand, underwhelming performance from Chelsea. I think the midfield was key, Chelsea really missed Kante today, without him, Chelsea's pressing was just poor which allowed Man City to make smooth transitions. Honestly, I didn't expect much from Sarri's team, the players are still adapting to the new system, and it's gonna take a while before they get used to the new tactics.
The game could've ended 3-0 or 4-0, but Caballero was superb. All in all, Chelsea were outplayed.
Sergio Aguero scored in the 13th minute and Chelsea never recovered after that. Chelsea did not look comfortable. After all, it has been only a month since Maurizio Sarri took over. But it was too bad that they managed only a solitary shot on target.
On the blues side, coach Maurizio Sarri needs to get the least damage possible in the first 10 rounds of Premier League. The players are difficult to adapt to the way they need to play.
Also the defense problem that will confront Chelsea's defense is soft and easy to break, neither Rudiger nor David Luiz La Cahill have a defensive level worthy of Chelsea and their Italian coach.
