Erling Haaland threw his arms up in the air in frustration, and half a second later Kevin De Bruyne did the same. As Guardiola has said though, the pair don't half help City to win football matches when they play - and especially when they play together. This was the Norwegian's sharpest display of the season, and Guardiola will also have been encouraged by his longevity. It is an issue for City too ahead of a hugely important half, given how the team win more games and generally play better when Grealish starts. As clinical as the goals were, the body language from Haaland was even better.
