Pep Guardiola has praised Erling Haaland's performance in Manchester City's 4-0 win over Bournemouth on Saturday, despite the Norwegian not getting on the scoresheet.
The Premier League champions made it two wins from two after last weekend's opening day win at West Ham, with goals from Ilkay Gundogan, Kevin De Bruyne, Phil Foden and Jefferson Lerma own goal.
Yet, there was no further strike for 22-year-old Haaland, following his two goals at the London Stadium a week ago.
In fact, the striker only touched the ball eight times during the match, just one more than Romelu Lukaku's record low of seven touches in a Premier League game against Crystal Palace last season.
