Comments:

League position: 2nd Sergio Aguero had now scored against 25 of the 28 Premier League teams he had faced. Bolton Wanderers, Burnley and Leicester City were the teams he had not scored against. Pablo Zabaleta made his 200th Premier League appearance in this game. The Premier League’s Goal Accreditation Panel ruled on the following: - Manchester City’s second goal against Crystal Palace on Saturday 16th January 2016 has been confirmed as a Sergio Aguero goal. (Circular 15 – 21st January 2016)

Comments:

League position: 8th Crystal Palace had now failed to score in five consecutive Premier League games for the first time since February 1998. This was Palace's biggest defeat in the Premier League since losing 0-4 at Everton on 10 April 2005. Although the Eagles had lost 1-5 at Manchester City in the Capital One Cup in October 2015, this was the first time they had conceded four goals in a Premier League game since Fulham's 4-1 win at Selhurst Park on 21 October 2013.
