"A 250th Premier League win for Pep Guardiola, achieved at record speed, and in a season where no contender is perfect, a seventh title trophy cannot be ruled out. The Manchester City of autumn 2025 is work in progress, low on previous star quality but still full of possibilities. The presence of Erling Haaland in his currently devastating form is a cast-iron guarantee they will be sticking around for a while yet."
"The ninth minute saw Haaland score his ninth Premier League goal of the season. Supplied by Josko Gvardiol, Haaland was left with plenty to do but his power and speed completed the job, bustling through Sepp van den Berg and Nathan Collins to clatter past Caoimhin Kelleher. At 25, and handed a leadership role by his manager, Haaland is thriving under added responsibility."
Pep Guardiola recorded his 250th Premier League victory at record speed, leaving a seventh title still possible in an imperfect season. Manchester City in autumn 2025 appear a work in progress, reduced on previous star quality but rich in potential. Erling Haaland continues in devastating form and scored his ninth league goal in the ninth minute after a Josko Gvardiol assist, using power and pace to beat defenders and goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher. At 25, Haaland has accepted added leadership responsibilities and is thriving. A hard-fought win at Brentford featured first-half dominance and a nervy second half as the opponent fought back without composure.
