Man City Player Ratings vs Tottenham

The Carabao Cup season of Manchester City ended early as Tottenham won a tight fourth-round match 2-1. Despite using a combination of young and seasoned players, City lost to an inferior team and let up two goals in the first half. The disappointment was exacerbated by Phil Foden’s poor performance and Savinho’s injury, which forced Guardiola to bear the consequences of City’s early departure.

Player Ratings Highlights

• Stefan Ortega (6/10): Made some crucial saves, though he could have done better with Sarr’s powerful strike at the near post.
• Nico O’Reilly (6/10): Showed promise and almost netted an equalizer, only for Bissouma to clear off the line.
• Savinho (7/10): Battled through a tough start, eventually creating City’s goal but left on a stretcher after a concerning injury.
• Phil Foden (4/10): Struggled to make an impact as a striker, highlighting City’s need for a more natural fit up front.
• Pep Guardiola (5/10): Rotations backfired as City failed to deliver the performance and result Guardiola hoped for ahead of the international break.
