All the aces are in Pep's hands, I don't see him changing anything at the moment but he does have some great options on the bench.

Had Virgil van Dijk been the man marking Sergio Aguero, I don't think he would have got away for the goal - I was as impressed by the work of Bernardo Silva, David Silva and Leroy Sane all attacking that space down the left.

It's poised really nicely, but I would like to see more from Liverpool in an attacking sense.

It is 242 days since Liverpool last lost a Premier League game. Prince Harry had yet to marry when Olivier Giroud scored the only goal in a 1-0 win for Chelsea.

It was almost a fantastically well-worked plan from Liverpool. But I am surprised the two full backs have not got forward, only once or twice this half - maybe that was the game plan?

Compare that to Aymeric Laporte and Danilo, they are not attack-minded whatsoever.

I think the second half will see Jurgen Klopp ask Liverpool to go on the front foot. Not that they have been playing badly, there's hardly anything between the teams.

Not been the best of halves for Liverpool's Dejan Lovren. Shown a yellow card for a poor challenge then outwitted by Sergio Aguero for the goal - the striker moving and thinking quicker than the defender.

A lot of tension out there and a few tackles flying in, but the difference has been Sergio Aguero. Man City have just shaded it, but anything could happen in the second half.

It's not dead.

Leroy Sane has got the legs on anybody, Raheem Sterling has to move a little bit earlier - he did it once and got in behind.

Liverpool need an Adam Lallana or Xherdan Shaqiri to get in the hole and create, give the front three service. The gap between the midfield and front three is 30-40 yards.

Adeyemi Adisa: Sergio Ageuro is simply the definition of a world class finisher!

Nic Peters: Not enough talk about Sane. He's been world class down the left, which is where the chances are coming from.

Tuhin Rashid: Allison so overrated and overhyped by Liverpool fans. Best keeper in the premier League is out there but he's wearing yellow.

1.12cm. That's 80% of a paracetamol...

Danilo needs help to hobble off the field at the break. Could be a 45-minute job for Kyle Walker coming up.

Advantage champions.

Aymeric Laporte is booked for an ugly swipe on James Milner. Free-kick Liverpool. Cleared.

I think Manchester City have just edged it.

Sergio Aguero's movement is fantastic. He runs at you, goes in behind, comes short - that goal was brilliant, the first touch with one foot and bang, finished.

Sergio Aguero has now scored in all seven of his home league appearances against Liverpool (seven goals).

Tidy.

Both sides have had one chance, Sadio Mane hit the post and Aguero hit the roof of the net.

Eddie: What a goal that is from Kun Aguero. Lasers the ball into the roof of the net from a near-impossible angle. Could have taken off Alisson's head. Top drawer stuff!!

Paul Walmsley: Ah Lovren. Will never be a world class centre back.

Neil Boughton: Aguero, best striker in the league, does it again.

What a difference a goal can make.

It all started with Leroy Sane's pace down the left, he goes away from Dejan Lovren like he wasn't there.

This goal is absolutely Sergio Aguero at his best. He thinks he's fouled, gets up on to his feet and then the next ball comes in - it's a great touch and a hard volley.

He has had a very good first half and it's a brilliant goal, absolutely top drawer.

Incredible mismatch of pace down the left as Leory Sane streaks past Dejan Lovren and puts the ball across - it's half cleared though...

Harrison Short: Pretty much exactly the same tackle Kompany made in a Manchester derby a few seasons back, after which he was sent off. Lucky boy this time around.

Loz Smith: Any other player and that's a red. There is a massive love in for Kompany because he's a "nice guy".

Chris: Kompany very lucky there out of control scissor action is usually a straight red

Well done that time, Vincent Kompany, as he beats Mo Salah fairly this time and plays it out. Leroy Sane shows great pace to streak through the middle and Gini Wijnaldum and Jordan Henderson sandwich him. The Dutchman is booked, though he barely touched him.
