Hear the thoughts of Pep Guardiola after his side beat Everton 2-nil at the Etihad Stadium. A second half brace from Erling Haaland was enough for the champions to pick up a crucial three points against Sean Dyche’s side. The win put the world champions top of the Premier League before title rivals Liverpool and Arsenal play this weekend.
Pep Guardiola was thrilled to see his side make it 10 consecutive wins in all competitions. The treble winners were forced to scrap and fight for the victory at home. An Erling Haaland brace in the second half was enough for City to secure a crucial victory.
The City manager knew his team was in for a tough afternoon and so it proved at the Etihad. Everton made City earn their victory and it wasn’t until the introduction of Kevin De Bruyne sparked the champions into life. The Manchester City legend provided the second for Erling Haaland to seal the win as he continued his fantastic form since his return from injury.
