Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola gave a special salute to Erling Haaland and Julian Alvarez this weekend.
The Citizens used their two fearsome forwards to win 2-1 against Fulham in the Premier League on Sunday.
Haaland scored the first from the penalty spot, while Alvarez netted the winner to move his side to the top of the table.
I knew that Churchill was not Prime Minister when the record today Erling broke," Guardiola reflected on Haaland netting his 50th in all competitions for City.
It's a long, long time ago. I am really impressed. He took the penalty with the mentality he has. Strong.
Congratulations to Erling. The best goals to help us achieve what we want still is there.
With Julian, every time he plays he gives us everything. He got the assist for the penalty and after did the extraordinary goal.
To have two strikers is an incredible weapon that we have.
To play almost all of the games to be world champions with Argentina where there are thousands of talented footballers and to be able to play there is because he (Alvarez) has something.
It is helping me a lot to understand that in the future I can adjust something to make them both and Kevin (De Bruyne) play.
In tight games that's really important.
It's not just the goal and the penalty, it's the pressure and to keep the ball. He knows exactly where the other players are."
