CITY XI: Ederson, Walker, Akanji, Ake, Lewis, Rodrigo, De Bruyne (C), Bernardo, Foden, Alvarez, Haaland
Subs: Ortega Moreno, Phillips, Kovacic, Grealish, Laporte, Gomez, Gvardiol, Palmer, McAtee
Interesting to see Lewis at left back and good to see Phil starting
No Stones or Dias on the bench, must be injured. Thought Kovacic would be starting.
Good to see Erling's drought didn't last long into the new season.
I just hope and pray that KDB is okay and it was just a precaution to take him off. Burnely have been quite competitive but not really had clear chances. Erling is just deadly again.
Nice, comfortable win to start. Rodri's on fire.
In reality City didn't have to break sweat. Lovely start and Haaland back in the scoresheet.
I liked how we did plenty of little passes once we got to the edge of their box, when previously we'd have gone backwards.
Early days but still.
Slightly rusty but a decent win
