Kevin De Bruyne draws comparison between Man City star Erling Haaland and Arsenal's Gabriel Jesus

Kevin De Bruyne doesn't think Manchester City have had to change their game much to incorporate Erling Haaland as they previously played with Gabriel Jesus as an out-and-out striker.

After a rare blip against Liverpool, Haaland continued his magnificent start to life at City on Saturday as he notched another two goals in the 3-1 win over Brighton. His tally after just 15 games has now reached 22.

Former Blue Jesus is also having a good start to the campaign with his five goals and four assists helping Arsenal to climb to the top of the table, before they took on Southampton on Sunday afternoon. De Bruyne has drawn a comparison between the two by revealing that playing with Haaland in the team is similar to when the Brazilian was upfront.
