Erling Haaland expressed his joy after scoring twice on his debut to help City to a 2-0 Premier League victory over West Ham United.

"It was good. [It was a] good start there is nothing much to say other than that and it was 2-0. Good start," he reflected.

"It was good to get some minutes in the legs, it’s still early in the season and we have to keep going.

"As expected we saw the potential already against Bayern [Munich in pre season] and it was a little bit down against Liverpool. It will come with games, the passes will come, it should have been more today. A good start."

“Yes. If you saw the Gundogan moment I should have been there [to connect with Ilkay Gundogan’s cross]," he admitted.

"It’s about the connections we do everyday in training and practicing so we get better and this will come even more, so I’m not worried.

“There were some good celebrations so I’m happy. Nice that he [Dad – Alfie] saw both goals as it is a big moment for me as a debutant in this competition. We have to keep going.

“Also now it is almost 30 minutes since I scored the last goal so I have to keep going."
