Pep Guardiola has singled out an "extraordinary" Fernandinho after the midfielder scored a breathtaking goal in a 5-0 defeat of Burnley that sent Manchester City back to the top of the Premier League.

Riyad Mahrez and Leroy Sane added further goals in the closing stages, with an ideal day for City completed by Kevin De Bruyne's return to action after two months on the sidelines.
