Striker Ashley Barnes put Burnley in front, but Sergio Aguero's brace had City in the lead before Leroy Sane and Bernardo Silva added further goals for Pep Guardiola's men.

Agüero is City's second-highest scorer this season, his tally of 17 behind only Raheem Sterling's 18.

"In this amount of games, we have just one striker in Sergio", he stated.

"Before we came here he always had long periods injured and in these two years he didn't suffer that".

"Hopefully we can handle it until the end because we need the strikers' goals".

"Our success this season is not just about strikers but also wingers and attacking midfielders and set-pieces brought us a lot of goals, but of course our striker is our striker".

'But of course our striker is our striker.

We need Gabriel, we need Sergio, we need both, and now we will have maybe two months without Gabriel. I prefer Kevin to play in the middle.

Kevin De Bruyne occupied the number 10 role in City's Champions League trip to Barcelona previous year.

"We have other options - not a "striker" striker but we have guys with the mentality to be around the box who can solve that problem".

"I thought we were very good until they scored their first - a very contentious goal - and then we looked a bit punch drunk", the manager told reporters.

The pair clashed verbally after Sergio Aguero equalised from a quick free-kick at the Etihad Stadium, with City going on to win 4-1. Benjamin Mendy is out until April because of a knee injury, Phil Foden's ankle problem rules him out for around two months and Vincent Kompany is an ongoing concern and not available for Saturday's visit of Burnley in the FA Cup.

Guardiola has indicated that he would be happy to extend his stay at City beyond 2019, when his contract expires, but would only do so if he felt he had achieved the success to merit that. "But you have to handle it", he said.
