Why Man City MUST ease the goalscoring burden on Erling Haaland: How Aston Villa shut him down, who Pep Guardiola needs to come to the party... and why the boss is not panicking yet

Quiz question: aside from Erling Haaland, who has scored the most goals for Manchester City in the Premier League this season?

The answer might surprise you, but then maybe it won’t, given Pep Guardiola is talking about the need for his attackers to ‘step up’ around the opponent’s box.

Maxime Esteve, Burnley’s lynchpin at the back, takes the rather dubious honour. His two own goals as City beat the Clarets 5-1 last month puts him ahead of Phil Foden, Tijjani Reijnders, Rayan Cherki and Matheus Nunes.
