What happened. Manchester City thumped Crystal Palace 4-1 at Selhurst Park, with Rayan Cherki scoring twice to earn Player of the Match.

• Cherki's first goal was a sublime solo effort through four defenders.
• He blasted a second from 25 yards after Donnarumma's own goal.
• Haaland added a late second as Maresca secured two league wins from two.

Maresca's era is up and running, but he still has work to do to rebuild the squad.
