Erling Haaland has hit out at he and his Manchester City team-mates for the nature of their 'embarrassing' 3-1 Champions League defeat at Bodo/Glimt. City were comfortably beaten in Norway as two goals from Kasper Hogh and a beautiful Jens Petter Hauge strike consigned them to a shock defeat on Tuesday night. Rayan Cherki pulled one back on the hour-mark for the visitors but any hope of a comeback was evaporated when Rodri was sent off after collecting two yellow cards in 54 seconds.

DOMINIC KING AT ST JAMES' PARK: City have control of their Carabao Cup semi-final‚ having won the first leg at St James' Park 2-0 thanks to goals from new signing Antoine Semenyo and‚ deep into added time‚ Rayan Cherki. Turning the situation around‚ Newcastle boss Eddie Howe admitted‚ will be his 'biggest challenge'. Guardiola was thrilled with City's performance but he couldn't contain his emotions after a preposterous 5min 30s second stoppage that eventually ended with Semenyo having a goal disallowed; Erling Haaland was deemed to be offside.

LEWIS STEELE: Around the concourses at Anfield‚ those Liverpool fans who had beaten the farcical queues and new security screenings to finally get in would have seen a creative midfielder pulling the strings for his new team. They would have seen on the big screens that‚ after a £34million move‚ Rayan Cherki is on red-hot form and was sensational as Manchester City made it eight wins in a row after a bedding-in period and fitness concerns plagued his start on these shores. Liverpool fans‚ therefore‚ might have been wondering when their own new attacking midfielder would start to trouble the scorers with some goal involvements. In beating Wolves‚ £116million Florian Wirtz showed that whatever Cherki can do‚ he can do too.

TOM COLLOMOSSE AT THE CITY GROUND - NOTTINGHAM FOREST 1-2 MAN CITY: On the day Nottingham Forest paid tribute to the man Brian Clough called 'Picasso'‚ Manchester City's French artist Rayan Cherki produced a masterpiece worthy of Matisse or Monet. John Robertson‚ Forest's double European Cup winner who passed away on Christmas Day‚ was described in those glowing terms by Clough‚ and he would surely have appreciated Cherki's decisive contribution here. In the week where‚ Pep Guardiola had focused on the weight of his Manchester City players‚ it was beginning to look as though they had missed a chance to tilt the scales of this title race in their favour. Yet Cherki's late strike gave them all three points and immediately threw down a challenge to Arsenal‚ who kicked off against Brighton at 3pm. Given the Gunners previous wobbles when the title has been on the line‚ moments like these are an intriguing test of their mettle.

MANCHESTER CITY 3-0 WEST HAM UNITED - NATHAN SALT AT THE ETIHAD STADIUM: How do you stop Erling Haaland? And if you successfully do that (West Ham didn't)‚ how do you stop Rayan Cherki? Miraculously pass steps one and two and it's just the small matter of Phil Foden‚ Tijjani Reijnders and Bernardo Silva in your way. West Ham failed every question in what is one of the toughest exams any side in the Premier League will face all season long: a title-contending City‚ at home‚ when they have wind in their sails. Haaland's brace‚ both fortuitous in one aspect but ruthless finishes from the world's best finisher in the other‚ either side of half-time drew a robot celebration for the first and a smile-shrug of the shoulders combination for the second. This is just what Haaland‚ now up to 19 league goals and counting this season‚ and City do.
