A brace from Raheem Sterling and a header from Fernandinho saw Manchester City maintain their perfect start to the season with a 3-1 victory over West Ham at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday.Pep Guardiolas side started brilliantly and opened the scoring inside 10 minutes when an incisive through ball from David Silva saw Gael Clichy get to the byline. The fullbacks pull-back was then easily struck by Sterling to give the Citizens (3-0-0) the lead and it was soon to become two.A Kevin de Bruyne free kick from a central position saw Fernandinho left all alone to power home a header into the roof of the net and the signs looked ominous for West Ham (1-0-2) as they struggled to get any sort of foothold in the match.However, after De Bruyne missed a great chance at the end of the first period, the Hammers capitalised early in the second half when Michail Antonio bagged yet another far post header, this time from Arthur Masuakus left wing cross.The rest of the match saw City look strong if a little shaky due to the narrow margin, but those nerves went away when Sterling rounded Adrian and tapped home from a tight angle just seconds after Silva had struck the post following a rapid counterattack.

There are many ways of measuring success - Socceroos coach Ange Postecoglou does so by looking to the future, even as he reflects on the past.Tuesday nights World Cup qualifier against Thailand falls three years, nearly to the day, since the former Brisbane and Melbourne Victory A-League coach took charge of Australia for the first time.For those who watched the Socceroos 1-0 win over Costa Rica in Sydney on November 19, 2013, Postecoglous vision was unambiguous from the outset.His unapologetic demand for possession-based, attacking football was the key to Australias competitive 2014 World Cup display and delivered the historic 2015 Asian Cup when the nations playing stocks were purportedly near an all-time low.Without the so-called golden generation the Socceroos progressed to the final phase of Russia 2018 qualifying via seven wins in eight matches.Now, on the brink of making a fourth consecutive World Cup, Postecoglou is satisfied and also driven to continue his evolution.It was hard for me to envisage anything at the time of taking over, knowing the immediacy of the World Cup and Asian Cup within the first 12 months of my tenure, he said.You try and project and hope to be in a certain space by the time we have the opportunity to qualify for the next World Cup.That meant weeding out the ageing old guard, and Postecoglou showed he wasnt afraid to do what his predecessor Holger Osieck didnt by controversially calling time on the international careers of many of thoose aged 30 and over from Germany 2006.ddddddddddddIn their place came less-experienced youth carrying long-term promise - all part of a grand plan to add much-needed depth.Were now in that bracket I wanted the bulk of the squad to be in terms of age and relevant caps at international level, Postecoglou said.Because you know if you qualify for a World Cup those kinds of things certainly help to have more of an impact.And in terms of the way were playing ... I think were just about there.The best is certainly yet to come, because a lot of these guys will be key players in the next World Cup cycle as well.Many of those faces are the fruits of a global talent sweep early in Postecoglous incumbency.No future star was missed, including those with dual nationality who could choose which country to play for.In the squad to face Thailand are five who played youth international football for other countries in Brad Smith (England), Apo Giannou (Greece), Milos Degenek (Serbia), Jamie Maclaren (Scotland) and Jackson Irvine (Scotland), while Jimmy Jeggo is also still eligible to play for Austria.Its not about convincing them, Postecoglou said.I think all of them wanted to but sometimes, particularly for guys who leave Australia at a young age and go halfway around the world, if we dont show them a little bit of care and attention they could get lost.
