Creates three chances in defeat

Anderson registered two crosses (zero accurate) and three chances created in Saturday's 2-1 loss to Aston Villa. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 74th minute.

Analysis: Anderson played the full 90 minutes against Aston Villa and created three chances from a deep central midfield role. Despite two inaccurate crosses, the Englishman offered a meaningful contribution in the build-up by making 10 passes into the final third and 14 line-breaking passes. Defensively, he made 10 contributions, won 67% of ground duels and 100% of aerial duels. Overall, it was a decent game for the midfielder individually.

Bags first City goal

Anderson scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Tuesday's 5-1 win against AEK Athens.

Analysis: Anderson would finally have his moment in the City uniform, as the midfielder recorded a goal in the 12th minute to open the scoring, netting his first goal with City. This would go along with his two tackles won and 66 passes completed, a solid match all around. He continues to be a mainstay in the midfield for the club as their anchor in the midfield, only missing two starts all season between UCL and league action.
