Match Performance Analysis: Player Ratings and Insights

**Gianluigi Donnarumma (6/10):**
Donnarumma had a subdued first half, remaining largely a bystander. However, he remained alert in the second half as Wolves intensified their efforts. He misjudged a corner but fortuitously used his arm to block a subsequent attempt from Mosquera.

**Matheus Nunes (7/10):**
Nunes made a commendable return to the squad after recovering from flu, missing the Manchester derby and the trip to Bodo/Glimt. He excelled on the right flank against his former club, delivering a remarkable cross for Marmoush.

**Abdukodir Khusanov (6/10):**
Khusanov delivered a polished performance, benefiting from a slower pace and a seasoned partner in Guehi. Despite these advantages, he defended with authority throughout the match.

**Marc Guehi (7/10):**
Guehi had a comfortable debut, adeptly managing the few threats in the first half. Although he had a moment of uncertainty when he nearly lost possession, he quickly rectified it, earning the admiration of fans with a courageous block during added time.

**Nico O’Reilly (6/10):**
O’Reilly showcased a dependable defensive display, although he appeared slightly fatigued from the recent trip to Norway. His contributions in attack were limited, culminating in a speculative shot that sailed over the bar.

**Bernardo Silva (7/10):**
Silva made a positive impact upon his return from suspension, which was evident in Bodo. He provided essential support to Rodri defensively while also pushing forward to create opportunities, notably setting up Semenyo.

**Rodri (6/10):**
Following a tumultuous performance in Bodo that resulted in a red card, Rodri opted for a more measured approach in this match. He took on a creative role, adapting well to Wolves’ cautious playstyle.

**Tijjani Reijnders (6/10):**
Reijnders had a quiet match, failing to significantly influence play despite City’s dominance. He was the first player substituted, making way for Foden.

**Antoine Semenyo (8/10):**
Semenyo continued his impressive start at City, causing problems for Wolves with his direct approach. He scored a noteworthy goal, providing City with a substantial advantage at halftime, and remained a threat in the second half, coming close to scoring again after hitting the woodwork.

**Omar Marmoush (7/10):**
Marmoush seized the moment, scoring early and playing with enthusiasm and freedom, making him a constant threat. He struck the post in the second half, although he had a missed opportunity by over-hitting a pass to Semenyo.

**Rayan Cherki (7/10):**
Cherki brought energy and flair to City’s attack after starting on the bench. He was close to scoring multiple times, and his unpredictable movements aided Marmoush and Semenyo in causing disruption.

**Phil Foden (6/10):**
Foden delivered a couple of threatening set pieces but ultimately failed to make a substantial impact on the match.

**Erling Haaland (6/10):**
Haaland had limited involvement following his substitution for Marmoush.

**Jeremy Doku (6/10):**
Doku engaged with Wolves effectively and set up Foden with a nice pass, though he was less decisive than the starting forwards.

**Pep Guardiola (7/10):**
Guardiola made a bold statement with several changes, particularly benching Haaland and Foden. While he may be dissatisfied with his team’s late-game performance, it reflects a significant improvement compared to their last two outings.
