RECORD!! Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City Make Best Start In Premier League History After Win Against West Brom

Manchester City’s 3-2 win at West Brom on Saturday, meant Pep Guardiola’s team has made the best start in Premier League history.

Leroy Sane and Fernandinho scored for City in the first half at the Hawthorns, either side of Jay Rodriguez’s lob.

Substitute Raheem Sterling gave the Etihad side a two-goal cushion, before Matt Phillips pulled one back for the hosts.

And, as they racked up their ninth win of the season, City also ensured a place in the history books.

No team in the Premier League has previously made a better start to the season after 10 games.

City’s record stands at nine wins, a draw and a positive goal difference of 29.

That run has seen Guardiola’s men open up a five-point lead over rivals Manchester United
