Just not his day today. Looked nervous at times, and was pulled off mid-way through the game. The youngster is still learning though and has plenty of time to improve at the highest level, having shown on plenty of occasions he can do it. In truth, the way City played in the first-half, it would have been hard for anyone to make an impression as a youngster in the United attack.

Much has been said about the goalkeeping situation at City, and it was just typical that the man sent to replace Joe Hart and show everyone how it should be done, had a bit of a nightmare. Spilled the ball which resulted in Zlatan grabbing a goal back, and often put his team under pressure. Could have been sent-off for a tackle on Wayne Rooney in the second half, a tackle which is up to debate whether it is a 50/50 or if it is an unlawful tackle. Difficult Premier League debut for any player however, and he did have an immediate impact in terms of his possession play. Bravo does look a player that will suit City down to the ground as the season develops and he learns the Premier League.
