With his father Alf-Inge Haaland cheering on the sidelines; Erling Haaland delivered on his Premier League debut; showing great bursts of acceleration and a ruthless touch to score both goals; as Manchester City got their Premier League campaign off to the perfect start with a professional 2-0 win at West Ham United.
You must say West Ham looked a bit disappointing on their own patch. So revolutionary the past season; David Moyes' men seemed to give too much respect to the defending champions; affording them too much time & space to do their damage.
It is early days yet; but with Haaland coming to grips with the City playing style; you can say that the team overall looks even more balanced than their championship selves barely a a season ago. This is indeed an ominous sign for the rest of the chasing pack.
