BURNLEY - Manchester City could be without Kevin De Bruyne for a number of weeks after he suffered the recurrence of a hamstring injury as the defending champions opened the Premier League season with
a 3-0 win at Burnley on Friday.
The Belgian had suffered a hamstring tear in City's Champions League final victory over Inter Milan two months ago. "We are still not in our best form but we have to try to not drop many points in that period," added Guardiola."It's a question of mentality and we were fortunate to break the game early.Haaland fired City to the treble last season by scoring 52 times in his first year at the club.
Despite the scoreline, the home side were far from outclassed but paid for the lack of a clinical finisher like Haaland.
