What marks out of ten did the Manchester City players get for the Premier League clash at the Vitality Stadium?
Ederson
Had little to do other than stay calm in a couple of tense moments when he needed to use his feet - but he clearly didn't let his concentration flag - 7
Kyle Walker
Asked to sit a little deeper than normal as the attacking players carved up th right-hand side, but he picked his moments to add value to the attack - 7
John Stones
No sign of an injury when he was subbed - maybe Guardiola wanted more authority at set pieces at both ends, because he had been sound defensively - 7
Nicolas Otamendi
If his flying volley had flown in he would have been celebrating a Goal of the Season contender - but he had another solid display in defence instead - 7
Aleks Zinchenko
Again neat and methodical, building attacks down the left-hand side, and with no real defending to do. Definitely his kind of game! - 7
Ilkay Gundogan
Did well as the fulcrum of the team, ensuring the pressure stayed on, but better teams would exploit his lack of defensive vigour - 7
Kevin De Bruyne
Had been showing some real signs of finding his passing range on a more regular basis, so that injury was another cruel blow in a season proving a write-off for him - 7
David Silva
Playing his third game in a week, yet he was the one who was constantly probing at the defence, and it was his work in the box that brought Mahrez's goal - 7
Bernardo Silva
All hustle, bustle and dangerous intent. He gave Daniels a tough afternoon and then filled in more than adequately when De Bruyne limped off - 8
Sergio Aguero
No space for him in the first half, but when it opened up he hit the bar - even though it looked like an attempted cross - 7
Raheem Sterling
His pace was always a threat, more so when Bournemouth finally ventured out of their half and left space in behind - 7
Subs
Riyad Mahrez
(for De Bruyne 45) Nice finish, then bad miss - 6
Vincent Kompany
(for Stones 48) kept it tight - 7
Gabriel Jesus
(for Aguero 90) No time
Not used: Muric, Danilo, Foden, Sane
