Claudio Echeverri - Earns City debut Echeverri recorded five shots (two on target) in Saturday's 1-0 loss to Crystal Palace.

Impact Echeverri would earn his City debut Saturday, strangely coming in a crucial match, as he would appear in their FA Cup final loss. He would only see a spot off the bench, notching 14 minutes of play and seeing five shots in the loss. He would come close to scoring on one occasion, although the lights may have been too bright in his debut. He will hope this appearance will lead to another in their final two outings in league play this campaign.

MAY 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Kevin De Bruyne - Doesn't earn final trophy with City De Bruyne notched four chances created, four shots and six crosses in Saturday's 1-0 loss to Crystal Palace.

Impact De Bruyne will not see a trophy in his final season with City, as they fell short in Saturday's FA Cup final, and he will depart before the Club World Cup. He ended his amazing run with City in the FA Cup with a decent contribution, although he didn't earn a goal contribution. He is sure to see a starting role for the final two outings of the season and will hope to see a goal contribution to help earn City UCL play next campaign.

Omar Marmoush - Fails to score from penalty spot Marmoush registered three shots (one on target) and missed a penalty in Saturday's 1-0 loss to Crystal Palace.

Impact Marmoush will have a few eyes on him after Saturday's FA Cup loss, as he would be handed the ball by Erling Haaland in the 36th minute to take a penalty that would be saved and lead to a City loss. This is a tough performance for the Egyptian's first Cup try with City. He will now return to league play, where he hopes to still see a starting role despite the return of Erling Haaland.

MAY 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Jeremy Doku - Decent performance from flank Doku registered three chances created, four crosses and five shots in Saturday's 1-0 loss to Crystal Palace.

Impact Doku was back in the starting XI for the club's FA Cup final after appearing off the bench last outing, seeing five shots, four crosses and three chances created despite the loss. He will hope to see the start again for the final two games of the season, as he remains two goal contributions off of his 11 league goal contributions from last campaign.

MAY 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Erling Haaland - Fails to score Haaland notched three shots (one on target) in Saturday's 1-0 loss to Crystal Palace.

Impact Haaland was once again unable to score at Wembley, with only one of the forward's three shots finding the target. This now makes it two straight outings without a goal since he returned from injury. He will be unable to see the Golden Boot in Premier League play but will hope to at least see joint second and match Alexander Isak, who currently has 23 goals compared to Haaland's 21.

MAY 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Stefan Ortega - Allows goal against Palace Ortega made one save and allowed one goal in Saturday's 1-0 loss to Crystal Palace.

Impact Ortega wouldn't see much work Saturday, but still allowed an early opener on the transition that would lead to the club's loss. This was the goalie's 19th appearance of the season between UCL, FA Cup and league play, with six clean sheets in those outings. However, he will likely return to the bench for the final two games of the season in favor of Ederson.
