Erling Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne have been hailed as “beasts” rampaging towards a third-straight Premier League title for Manchester City.
League leaders Arsenal were overwhelmed by the deadly combination of Haaland and De Bruyne in Wednesday's ruthless 4-1 mauling at the Etihad. The dictionary definition of a beast is 'any non-human animal' and the remorseless manner of City's two best players was monstrous at times.
City team-mate Bernardo Silva used the term to describe the towering pair, whose understanding has put Pep Guardiola's side on course for a fifth title in six years.
