‘Unbelievable’: Jamie Carragher wowed by £35m player during Manchester City v Chelsea

Manchester City were stopped in their tracks a touch as Chelsea came away with a well-earned point from The Etihad this evening.

Th൩e Blues made sure the title race is now wide open with the p🦩oint, with both Liverpool and Arsenal both looking on with delight at how things played out.

Indeed, if it hadn’t been for some good goalkeeping and a late Rodri leveller, thing▨s might have been even worไse for City in the end.

But a point was 💞shared and while the focus will be on City not getting their usual glut of goals, they also had goalkeeper Ederson to thank at the other end.

💯The Brazilian produced a number of good saves and highlighting his performance on Sky Sports, Jamie Carragher admitted the stopper had been the best player on the whole pitch.

“Ederson’s been fantastic. Unbelievable save again. He’s been Man City’s best player,” Carragher said.

City grateful for a top goalkeeper

On another day, Chelsea might have won this and while City did miss chances and not quite look their usual selves, the fact they have such a goalkeeper like Ederson ꩲis massive.

When you think back to 2017 🌃andಞ the fact City paid just , it really is quite remarkable.

His impact on the whole league has been massive, not just City, and 🔜today he showed his class in crucial moments.

Of course, losing out on three p🦩oints could be massivꦐe in the title race and Arsenal and Liverpool will now be licking their lips at what’s to come.

Pep Guardiola won’t panic, as we know. But he’ll be thankful for his goalkeeper t🐭oday 𓆏and will be looking for a big response when they play Brentford in midweek.
