Pep Guardiola tells his Man City players to 'STEP UP' in stern warning to star-studded squad - as Erling Haaland shines again during 2-0 win over Everton

Pep Guardiola has admitted that Manchester City cannot solely rely on goal machine Erling Haaland if they are to make an impression this season.

Haaland’s double against Everton took his tally to an incredible 11 Premier League goals from the opening eight games.

But Burnley’s Maxime Esteve’s two own goals during City’s 5-1 win last month theoretically make him second top scorer for Guardiola this term.

Four players – Phil Foden, Tijjani Reijnders, Rayan Cherki and Matheus Nunes – all have one each but wingers Savinho, Jeremy Doku and Oscar Bobb have all yet to find the net, while Omar Marmoush is coming back from injury.
