EPL 2016/17: Manchester City 4-0 Bournemouth - 5 talking points

#2 New faces display their potential

The German midfielder will perhaps be an important player under the new City boss

Manchester City might have spent big in the summer transfer window, but it’s fair to say they’ve had one of the best transfer window in recent years. Ilkay Gundogan had a stunning Premier League debut as he sealed a win for City scoring the fourth goal.

Returning from an injury he sustained last season, the German who was signed from Dortmund could make the midfield berth his own with performances like yesterday’s.

After an impressive EURO 2016, another new signing, Nolito, has adapted perfectly to the English conditions and the English game. The Spaniard was however sent off in the 86th minute for a needless challenge on Adam Smith; the only blemish on City’s perfect performance.
