It’s begging for a touch and Haaland is close to it, but he can’t connect with the header! Haaland was involved in flicking it on to Gundogan, who cut it back to De Bruyne for the finish. He made a big impact with his performances for Burnley last season and he has impressed me with his desire to improve and challenge himself further here at West Ham.” Pep Guardiola’s side have undergone a transformation this summer, bringing in arguably the world’s best striker in Erling Haaland, while losing Raheem Sterling and Gabriel Jesus.

Nothing. VAR should be taken out of the hands of the PGMOL and there should be a trial with a panel of, say, three ex-pros.” He shouldn’t have got the United job but also that job was a forest fire for anyone and has been since.” I don’t know: we can expect consistency in the same game, but the way the laws are drafted, we can’t expect it across different ones because there’s room for differing interpretations – as it goes, I don’t think that’s a bad thing. 62 min Here come City looking for a second, Foden nashing down the right and crossing low ... with Haaland sliding in the like T-1000 on a toboggan. 74 min “Just so you know,” returns JR, “on that Cancelo foul on Bowen (which probably wasn’t even a foul) the yellow card given to Cancelo wasn’t actually for the foul itself. It’s also worth noting that without oil money, Man United might’ve won every title from 07-13, also not healthy, but that said, I’d totally be behind a salary cap and anything else that took state wealth and similar out of the equation. I get it was done to reduce the number of stoppage due to VAR but it is ridiculous. 81 min “Just wanted to chime in in the eternal VAR debate,” chimes in Alexaandre. “I actually agree with your earlier point that laws give a lot of room for interpretation, explaining inconsistencies. These types of manager produce teams which at their best are mechanically effective but they lack a more holistic vision for the game, there is no big idea and it’s becoming increasingly clear that at the rarefied level at the elite of the elite you maybe need one. I was, though, disappointed in Rice and Soucek, who couldn’t really get in the game, but I doubt I’ll be saying that in a couple of weeks. 86 min “I think a good way of contextualising the idea of a Moyes sweet-spot is to look for the Moyes equivalents,” emails Zack Gomperts-Mitchelson. “That is very good managers who nonetheless lack something either when it comes to tactics, charisma or indeed their vision of the game that means there is a ceiling, in terms of club, for their talents.There is one outstanding example, it’s the Spanish David Moyes himself: Unai Emery. Brilliant manager, great results, real silverware on the shelf and he’s never getting a big job again. 90+1 min Alvarez mugs Rice outside the box, scurries right and pivots into a shot, crunching Zouma in the coupon.

Erling Haaland is handed his Premier League debut as City make two changes from the side that began the Community Shield for our league opener at West Ham.

• City suffered a 1-0 away defeat to Spurs in their opening league match last term - it was their only away loss in the top flight last season. • Manchester City have lost just one of their last 28 Premier League games (W23, D4), and are unbeaten in their last 12 (W9, D3). We last opened the season away to West Ham on the opening day of the 2019/20 campaign, roaring to a 5-0 success at the London Stadium.

7/10 Unclear how many games he has left at City. 6/10 Very nearly gave Haaland his hattrick with a neat pullback. Erling Haaland – Tried to stretch his neck to connect with a dinked Foden cross that could have resulted a debut goal. Stifling the Man City midfield is a two-man job (at least). 6/10 Ilkay Gundogan – Broke the lines at will and provided the pass for Haaland to win his first-half penalty. Does the kind of work that allows Gundogan and De Bruyne to flourish. Kevin De Bruyne – Thought he had opened the scoring in the first half before Gundogan was flagged for offside. Kurt Zouma – Looked a little heavy-legged when Haaland sprinted away from him in the second half and even more so after an Alvarez shot absolutely smashed him flush in the face in added time. Far better defenders will be made to look silly by him. Ben Johnson – Got his body position wrong when Haaland started accelerating past him and could not get turned around in time to react. Lukaz Fabianski – A little shaky early on, heading a ball that he might have been able to wait and catch, before flapping at a De Bruyne cross.

Erling Haaland marked his first Premier League game with both goals as Man City opened the campaign with an ominously dominant win at West Ham.

They travel to newly promoted Nottingham Forest in the Premier League (Aug. 14) before facing the first leg of their UEFA Europa Conference League playoff opponent at home (Aug. 18) and then hosting Brighton (Aug. 21) in the Premier League. (Their Europa opponent? With two years left to run on his contract, West Ham may have to offload Rice next summer if he fails to agree a new deal, but if a big offer comes in before the Aug. 31 transfer deadline, it could be tempting for both West Ham and Rice to make the move happen. But although he remains a West Ham player, there is still time for a bigger, wealthier club to make a move for the England international this month, and there are two in particular -- Chelsea and Manchester United -- who have been long-term admirers of Rice and who both still need midfield reinforcements. But the former Paris Saint-Germain keeper, who replaced the injured Lukasz Fabianski on 29 minutes, gifted City the opening goal just seven minutes after going on when he raced off his line and fouled Haaland with a reckless dive that resulted in a penalty. In terms of dominating the game, there were times when City had more than 75% of possession, and this was against a West Ham team that almost clinched a top-six finish last season. If their slick performance against West Ham is a gauge of what is to come, however, the chasing pack will have to sprint just to keep up. Also, it's been almost 30 minutes since I scored the last goal, so I have to keep going." But Haaland scored both goals as City made a winning start to the defence of their title and their star signing showed that he will be a huge asset to Pep Guardiola's team. There was certainly no rust in the win at the London Stadium. Erling Haaland's two goals got the new signing off the mark, and he has added greater potency to a team that already scored plenty. Meanwhile, his second was a classic striker's goal, one that underlined his pace, movement and nerveless ability to beat a keeper in a one-on-one situation. It's fair to say he is already living up to the job description. His first was from the penalty spot after his clever run behind the Hammers' defence was picked out by Ilkay Gundogan. After showing impressive pace to beat Hammers substitute goalkeeper Alphonse Areola to the ball and earn the penalty, Haaland sent him the wrong way from the spot with a precise penalty that nestled in the corner of the net.

Erling Haaland and Manchester City sent a warning to the rest of the Premier League in their 2-0 win over West Ham United on Sunday in London.

One of the world’s very best footballers. The big Norwegian was a threat to score in nearly every possession. Rodri: He’s just always there. Kevin De Bruyne: Heard of him? 🔥 My word, what a duo.

Summer signing Erling Haaland enjoyed a dream Premier League debut, bagging a brace of goals in either half as Pep Guardiola's side began the 2022/23 in formidable fashion.

Manchester City's star summer signing Erling Haaland scored the goals that gave them a straightforward 2-0 win at West Ham.

It was a clear penalty and there was no doubt in Haaland’s mind when he grabbed the ball. Gündoğan turned and played the pass, Haaland beat Johnson again and Areola, who was on for the injured Lukasz Fabianski, brought the forward down. With Antonio unable to hold the ball up for a passive West Ham, the pressure became incessant. A crowd of 62,500 had roared David Moyes’s side on at the start, but the atmosphere quickly faded. The eyes were instantly drawn to Haaland. It even seemed that there were questions for the 22-year-old to answer after some nervy finishing during City’s defeat to Liverpool in the Community Shield. For instance, would the physicality of English football be too much for him? For City, the focus over the summer was staying motivated.

We found it hard to outnumber them in the middle of the pitch. We talk about the team, the way we want to play, the way we want to create chances. "We tried to do it, but we couldn't get near them today. "We hung in, stuck at it, against a team that have completely outplayed us. I hope that next time we play them we might be able to offer something different. We want to try and give everything to him to become a better player. The Norway international predictably found the back of the net with a coolly-struck spot-kick to make the breakthrough (26), but it was his second entry that pleased manager Guardiola most. The way he took the ball for the penalty, I like that. We found the right moments with the goals today." Feel happy in the city, feel happy in the team. The match was over when Haaland raced onto De Bruyne's through ball nine minutes after Rice's miss, leaving Areola stranded as he swept into the far corner. "We make an exceptional performance everywhere today.
