Manchester City's second-string side receive a guard of honour from Chelsea before their clash at the Etihad... as Kalvin Phillips, Cole Palmer and Co. all start in the Premier League champions' final home game of the season

Manchester City starting line-up, which was much rotated, received a guard of honour from Chelsea prior to their match on Sunday afternoon.

Pep Guardiola's side clinched the Premier League title on Saturday night, after Arsenal's defeat to Nottingham Forest meant City could not be caught.

And, in traditional fashion, they received a guard of honour in their next match however a number of City's main players - responsible for the league title - weren't present in the line-up.

Instead, the likes of Kalvin Phillips, Rico Lewis, Cole Palmer and Sergio Gomez, who have made just a handful of appearances between them in the season, all started.
