Premier League Debut Double for Haaland │ The Data Dive Live │ August 8

What a Premier League debut that was for Erling Haaland. The Manchester City striker had come in for criticism following his performance in the Community Shield against Liverpool, but the Norwegian came good at the London Stadium - scoring twice as Pep Guardiola's side ended up enjoying a comfortable day out against West Ham United.

As well as reflecting on his Premier League debut in the latest edition of 'The Data Day Live', our panel of Duncan Alexander, Oliver Hopkins and Graham Bell looked across the weekend's action picking out their moments to reflect upon as the English top-flight returned.
