Job done simple as that

 

[WorthlessPoster]

Good start. Rodri, though!!!

 

[Gumzy97]

Was Gvardiol playing as a winger? He was so high up, practically in the Grealish role

 

[Crooked_rain]

Delighted with that

Obviously better come and gutted about Kev but though.

Thought Haaland was excellent all round, it can definitely be another element to our game to utilise him more directly at times

Kova slotted in no bother, very good player.

Good start from City. Kova looked good and great to see the academy graduates involved.
Thought Burnley did ok but their lack of goalscoring threat might hamper them. Same old Burnley fans though.

we allways put 4,5 or six past Burnley,,,,,,pep out

Good to get the early goal but a bit of sloppiness/rustiness from a few players meant we didn't really establish full control until around the 25 min mark. After that it was really total domination, without creating too many clear cut chances.

Considering the relative fitness levels of both sides, I think it was a very decent overall performance and a very good result. A good workout to help bring us up to match sharpness.

 

[Theengelbert]

Excellent result.

Walker best player on the pitch we simply cannot allow him to leave.

Haaland’s 2nd off the fucking scale.

Said prior to buying him Kovacic is lazy and didn’t see anything tonight to change my mind.

Pep won’t let him be lazy, he wouldn’t play him if there was a hint he was

 

[Complex Simplicity]

Good performance.

Never a red card in a million years that. I had worse challenges every weekend in Sunday league than that and not a card was shown. Just brushed myself down and got on with it. Game's gone soft. Full of mard arses nowadays.

 

[I remember the kool kats]

City flashing the cheese on Kovacic seems like a good punt!
