Manchester City formally announced their intention to be part of this season's Premier League title race with a stunning showing against a brave Bournemouth at the Etihad on Sunday. An Erling Haaland brace, twinned with an excellent Nico O'Reilly strike ensured that Pep Guardiola's side went second in the top flight, just six points behind leaders Arsenal.
Cherries were excellent for significant parts of the game, but City's Catalan controller flooded the midfield, deploying a high-risk and high reward tactic, which overpowered Iraola's charges in the middle of the pitch, leaving Haaland free to do what he does best.
Despite the result, there is A LOT that AFCB can take from the performance, as Sam and Tom explain in this week's Second Look.
