The Cityzens kicked off their campaign with a 3-1 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers on Monday with midfielder Kevin de Bruyne playing a starring role.

"The period that we are in and the situation that we had in these past two weeks, I expected that in some moments we would suffer, but in general we controlled the game."
