Man City player ratings vs Salford: That's why Phil Foden's no longer first-choice! England…

James Trafford (5/10):

Made a good save from Ben Woodburn just before the break and stood up well to a close-range effort from Kelly N'Mai on the hour mark - but did not inspire confidence in the air, with Trafford completely missing the ball as he attempted to punch one corner clear.

Abdukodir Khusanov (5/10):

Restored to his preferred position in the centre of defence due to Max Alleyne's early withdrawal and was solid rather than impressive.

John Stones (4/10):

Back in the starting line-up after his latest injury issues and looked more than a little rusty in defence before being subbed after 65 minutes.

Max Alleyne (N/A):

So unlucky to be forced off just 20 minutes into the game after injuring himself making a challenge on Josh Austerfield.

Rayan Ait-Nouri (6/10):

One of City's better players - although that's not saying much. As well as effectively creating the own goal with a well-timed surge down the left flank and dangerous ball into the area, the former Wolves man was also good in possession and decent defensively.
