Summary: Manchester City - Brighton 1:3, Erling Holland scored a brace (Sport1)
Pep Guardiola claims that his English is not good enough to accurately describe what Erling Holland is doing this season, and to give him more superlatives.
Yesterday (Saturday), the Norwegian scored a brace in Manchester City's 1:3 win over Brighton, and raised his season tally to 22 goals with only 15 goals.
It is likely that even if Holland had finished his entire first season in England with 22 goals it would not have been considered a disappointment, but we are still only in October and the champions' new scorer already has 17 league goals - in just 11 appearances.

Holland has already reached half of the record number of Premier League goals for the season (34), with 27 games remaining.
In total this season he has 8 appearances at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester, and his balance in them is 14 goals and 3 assists.
To illustrate, last season De Brauna was City's top scorer with 15 goals, meaning that already after 11 league games he scored more than any other City player all last season.
"I'm Catalan, so my English is not great enough," said Guardiola, when asked to describe his thoughts on the striker, "His numbers are amazing, and there are no doubts about his qualities. In addition, he is also very ambitious, and helped us win the game. It was one of the games The hardest we could have, the kind of games we are not used to because we don't have free players.
"We are so happy with the three points, because it was a tricky game, very tricky.
I know how difficult he was, and in the end we did it."
Holland (who won a seventh consecutive home game) scored a quick double, Brighton shriveled and pressed Pep, but then Kevin de Brauna calmed down with the third with an excellent kick from outside the box. "And he's not at his best", Pep said of the Belgian De Bruyne, "He's not playing the best he can, and he knows it, I don't have to tell him that.
It's still not perfect, we talked about it, but his goal was spectacular."
