Erling Haaland scores goals - and Kevin De Bruyne makes them.
Manchester City's top scorer returned in style after missing the win over Liverpool, going straight into the starting lineup at the expense of Julian Alvarez and scoring twice to emphasise why it is that he plays whenever he is fit. Thirty goals before Easter in the Premier League is frightening and an early substitution tees him up nicely for the visit of Bayern Munich on Tuesday.
City's 4-1 win at Southampton was due in a big way to De Bruyne though, who made more Premier League history in a performance that showed just how relevant he remains to his team's success. If the intention is for Haaland to spearhead Pep Guardiola's assault on three titles, De Bruyne once again looks like the red-faced alchemist making the magic happen.
