Jack Grealish was in scintillating form as Manchester City put Everton to the sword in a one-sided Premier League encounter. The England international orchestrated City's attacking play with flair and precision, leaving Everton's defence in tatters.
Pep Guardiola's men were relentless from the first whistle, with Grealish at the heart of their dominance. His vision and creativity unlocked Everton's backline time and again, setting up chances for his teammates and getting on the scoresheet himself.
Guardiola's Tactical Masterstroke
The City boss once again proved why he's considered one of the greatest managers of his generation. His tactical setup completely nullified Everton's threat while maximising his own team's attacking potential.
Grealish thrived in his preferred left-sided role, drifting inside to combine with Kevin De Bruyne and Phil Foden in dangerous areas. The trio's interplay was too much for Everton to handle throughout the 90 minutes.
Everton's Defensive Woes
For the visitors, it was another disappointing defensive display. Their backline looked vulnerable every time City attacked, with Grealish in particular causing constant problems.
The result leaves Everton with plenty to ponder as they look to climb the table, while City sent a strong message to their title rivals with this emphatic performance.
