Stoke smash Man City thanks to Marko Arnautovic and Xherdan Shaqiri

Stoke duo Marko Arnautovic and Xherdan Shaqiri tore Manchester City to shreds in a brilliant first-half display which made Manuel Pellegrini’s side look anything but Premier League leaders.

Austria international Arnautovic scored both goals – teed up by the drive and vision of man of the match Shaqiri – and could easily have finished the match with five to himself as the visitors were comprehensively outplayed in the Potters’ 2-0 victory.
