Haaland and De bruyne have excellent chemistry. De bruyne is an excellent midfielder . Apart from assisting scores, he is also capable of scoring. With De bruyne in the squad we see a better performance from Haaland. In the last few matches we don't see a better performance from Haaland.
Manchester city's performance is still somewhat erratic. The main reason for this is that their midfield key players are not in the squad. Because of this guardiola has to change his match strategy. Gundagon, De bruyne and bernardo silva were Manchester city's mainstays last season. Silva and De Bruyne have been absent this season due to injuries and Gundagon has left the team. With Silva and De Bruyne in the squad, City's performance is likely to be more stable.

Manchester City performance have declined so much this new season, the team finds it really difficulty to improved their game because significant players are injured. Pep Guardiola already had replacement for these players but these players will never suit in so perfect as these forme players. Kelvin De Bruyne and Bernardo Silva remained the pillars in cityzens midfield, nothing changes. They will recover and fall back fully fit to the squad. These two players absence is really affecting Erling Haaland in the frontline, no one to give crucial key passes to the Norway international for him to score, things getting tougher for Haaland.

No other player can make up for Kevin DeBruiner's absence. Haaland will suffer somewhat in attack due to his absence. But under the leadership of Pep Guardiola, a unique coach, Manchester City can surely come out of such problems.

I agree with you that De Bruyne's entry into the team had a significant impact on the originality of Manchester City's attack. As an attacker, Haaland may find it difficult to miss De Bruyne's valuable pass.

But it must be admitted that Manchester City have a history under Pep Guardiola showing their capacity to win under these circumstances. Guardiola is renowned for his ability to devise original methods and tactical mindset. He frequently compensated for the absence of key players by taking advantage of agile player rotations and effective tactical setups.
