Cole Palmer, the 20 year old replacement for Haaland, would find himself with a clear opportunity to make it 5-0 on 67 minutes after Peacock-Farrell had deflected Foden’s cross into his path. Guess who was there, taking a perfectly coordinated swing first time and nailing the rebound for his hat-trick? This time it was the brilliance of Kevin De Bruyne’s ball inside right back Connor Roberts was simply impossible to defend, which was followed by Phil Foden rolling his cross into the path of Haaland for 2-0. Three minutes later Riyad Mahrez found De Bruyne and Alvarez finished the incisive move for 4-0. Foden was buzzing around like the best kid on the playground showing off and accelerated past his man on 60 minutes, tucked away his shot, only to see it rebound off the post. But it didn’t help Burnley that their positional reinterpretation of English football involved Ameen Al-Dakhill deciding not to track Haaland after initially challenging for a header on 32 minutes. They’re part of a special elite and even the very best defenders find it hard to stop those guys. They went man for man on City and refused to change their style of play. Kompany knew it was all too much, too young, a case of being drowned in praise before scrambling for the lifeboats. Someone like Erling will keep finding a way.’ That’s quite the list to be namechecked with. There isn’t a team in world football that permit do that and emerge unscathed.
