Kevin De Bruyne tells Erling Haaland what he must improve after home Man City debut

Kevin De Bruyne has told Erling Haaland how he can improve his game after Manchester City won their first home league game of the season.

City eased to a 4-0 win against Bournemouth at the Etihad Stadium, with De Bruyne playing a key role in proceedings. The Belgian scored a superb solo goal to put City 2-0 up after half an hour, before turning provider five minutes later by teeing up Phil Foden with an audacious pass through the defender's legs.

Haaland also played an important role - more so in the first half - by setting up Ilkay Gundogan to score City's opener and by creating the space for De Bruyne's goal. However, the dream of scoring on his home debut sadly did not become reality.
