Erling Haaland scores again, Jack Grealish silences critics as Man ... (ESPN)

Erling Haaland scored again for Man City, who had an easy afternoon after Wolves went down to 10 men after 33 minutes.

Haaland now has 14 goals in 10 matches in all competitions (11 in the Premier League) and has only failed to hit the net in two matches this season for City. Man City: Amid the international break, Man City will have time to prepare for the derby, with Manchester United visiting the blue half of the city on Oct. - City are now unbeaten in their last 22 away league matches with a record of 16-6-0 (W-D-L). In between the first two goals we were there, but they scored in a transition. [Nathan Collins](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/279780/Nathan-Collins) jumped for a loose ball and caught Grealish in the midriff with his studs, receiving a straight red card. We struggled a lot after half-time until Phil's [Foden] goal so a lot of credit to Wolves." However, if your ability to pick up points is based on keeping it tight at the back then you need to make sure you don't concede inside a minute and have one of your centre-backs sent off before half-time. Bruno Lage did a good job at Molineux last season but he needs to get his team scoring soon if he's to avoid being dragged into the Premier League's sack race. A deserved red card followed, and with it, any chance of Wolves' salvaging something from the game disappeared. And, what do you know, three days after lasting 58 minutes against Dortmund, Grealish was happy again -- taking just 55 seconds to score his first goal of the season to put City 1-0 up. The 22-year-old will probably feel he could have had more, especially after Collins was sent off for an ugly-looking challenge on Grealish, but in the second half Pep Guardiola's side seemed content with knocking the ball around and running down the clock. Wolves were 2-0 down and a man down after just 33 minutes and at that point the home supporters inside Molineux were fearing the worst.

Jack Grealish, Haaland and Phil Foden all struck for City at Molineux, while Nathan Collins was sent off.

There was a hesitancy about Wolves and, with Max Kilman backtracking, Haaland’s bobbling shot found the bottom corner from 20 yards. The defender went to contest a bouncing ball on the left with Grealish but only succeeded in a dangerous studs-high challenge into the England man’s midriff. Foden’s backheel freed Kevin De Bruyne on the right and, while his low ball was missed by Haaland, Grealish outmuscled Jonny to fire in his first goal of the season off a post from five yards.

Every goal record Erling Haaland has broken aged 22 as Man City ... (Mirror.co.uk)

Man City are already reaping the rewards of adding Erling Haaland as the striker makes his mark in England having already broken records in the Bundesliga ...

His strike in the south of Spain also means the forward has scored on his Champions League debut for the third club. That bought up his haul of 25, which has been achieved in 20 games - the quickest anyone has done so. That is unless you're Haaland who needed four games to score his first Premier League hat-trick and five games to score his second. Prior to that Harry Kane needed 24 games to score 20 goals with the likes of Alessandro Del Piero and Ruud van Nistelrooy needing similar appearances. He went on to bag seven times in his first three games, following braces in games two and three. That is better than the prolific Robert Lewandowski, who scores a goal every 100 minutes, and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang who notched, on average, every 116 minutes. that gave him nine goals in his first five games in England's top flight - surpassing the previous record of eight, held by Sergio Aguero and Micky Quinn. Scoring more than a goal per game, the forward has rose to the occasion in the knockout stages and will be eyeing European glory at the Etihad. Starting fast is nothing new for Haaland - he did likewise when he moved to Dortmund. [West Ham](https://www.mirror.co.uk/all-about/west-ham-united-fc) United before a scoreless outing against [Bournemouth](https://www.mirror.co.uk/all-about/afc-bournemouth).

Wolves 0-3 Man City: Player ratings, Pep Guardiola reaction and ... (iNews)

Jack Grealish and Erling Haaland gave Man City full control against Wolves, who merged an old template with a new one to take the points.

Three times in the first 15 minutes of the second half, the only minutes in which Wolves troubled City and forced their opponents to play facing their own goal, a ball was pulled back to roughly the penalty spot. Jack Grealish – The run across the box for his goal was excellent and the finish was well controlled. Kevin de Bruyne – Gorgeous run and cross for the opener, putting the ball on a plate for Grealish to find the net, and dictated the pace of the game for the majority. Rodri – Was booked early in the first-half for a cynical tug back to stop a Wolves counter, and managed the rest of the game well without getting himself into trouble. Manuel Akanji – Doesn’t look like a brand new signing, which might not be too hard in a team as brilliant as City’s, but cannot be asked to do any more so far. Ruben Neves – Booked for dissenting against a yellow card Nunes received, and was generally unable to have much of a positive impact, including spurning a couple of free-kicks in decent positions. Not strong enough on the ball and not enough stamina to help going backwards. Nathan Collins – Rightly sent off for a horrendous foul on Grealish just after the half-hour mark, stamping on the England man’s stomach with his boot in mid-air. City did manage to find themselves a third, though, as Phil Foden squeezed a smart finish inside the far post after a neat one-two between Haaland and De Bruyne down the right-hand side. In the second-half, Wolves were allowed to push forward while City sensibly allowed themselves to take a rest during the game, refusing to over-exert their energy too often with the victory secured. That combination of the old and the new could well take City to a level of dominance beyond that which they have already experienced since Guardiola’s arrival.
