Manchester City player ratings: Burnley (H)

Earlier on today, a strong Manchester City side were able to progress into the next round of the FA Cup by beating a rotated Burnley team 5 goals to nil. 

As Guardiola had promised earlier in the week the hosts put out a strong XI that contained Kevin De Bruyne and Fernandinho as the stand out names. Gabriel Jesus opened the scoring with a fantastic run inside the box which bamboozled the Burnley defence including Nick Pope, who had a fantastic game despite conceding 5 times. 

Man City remained dominant throughout the rest of the first half but the main event, other than the goal, had to be Walker breaking the corner flag, which the fans enjoyed when the steward brought out a replacement. 

In the second half City really upped their game and put a poor Burnley side to the sword; Kevin De Bruyne’s trademark rocket to make the game 3-0 was the pick of the goals. 

Here’s how we rated the Manchester City players from the game…
