1 hour ago Manchester City sweep Wolves aside with Haaland double and debut goals

Whether Manchester City restore their powers as the Premier League’s formidable force after a summer of change remains one of the great unknowns but for Pep Guardiola the early evidence in victory at Wolves was supremely encouraging.The substitute Rayan Cherki, a summer signing from Lyon, capped the scoring within eight minutes of entering and Tijjani Reijnders, another one of those pinpointed to drive the close-season makeover, was peerless on his league debut; the Netherlands midfielder was the architect for Erling Haaland’s double, which bookended Reijnders’s first City goal, a feathery first-time finish. “City are back,” crooned the away support and, by the end, it was hard to argue otherwise.

4 h. ago Rodrigo Muniz’s late strike rescues point for Fulham at Brighton

A game with little between the sides, rustiness abounding, looked to have been won by a second-half Matt O’Riley penalty after Sander Berge’s ill-judged challenge. Fulham were made to wait for the 95th minute for a proper chance. It was volleyed wide by an aghast Kenny Tete but it would not be the last, Rodrigo Muniz smashing in a Harry Wilson corner. When all seemed lost and Brighton looked to have held Fulham at bay, the ball was allowed to travel to the second-half sub, one of those many strikers linked with Newcastle, who chested the ball down and crashed home.For transfer devotees, the other major news was Carlos Baleba starting in Brighton’s midfield; the expectation is he stays, give or take a steeple-high offer Tony Bloom cannot refuse. Within an aggressive midfield battle, Baleba’s quality was often apparent, sweeping up for his defence one minute, supporting forwards the next. He was certainly missed when subbed off in the second half. Continue reading...

4 h. ago Thomas Frank off to perfect league start as Richarlison helps Spurs beat Burnley

It’s hard to imagine how this could have gone any better for Thomas Frank. In front of an exuberant home crowd still basking in ending their long wait for a trophy, a breathtaking bicycle-kick from a rejuvenated Richarlison helped seal a convincing victory in the Dane’s first Premier League match in charge of Tottenham.Spurs’ new £55m signing Mohammed Kudus was also outstanding as he created both of the Brazilian’s goals before Brennan Johnson rounded things off against a Burnley side that proved a tough nut to crack. After conceding the opener to Richarlison – who was a bit-part player under Ange Postecoglou last season and had been linked with a move away this summer – in the 10th minute, Scott Parker’s side had their chances against a defence that creaked at times. They ultimately paid the price of their profligacy but will be encouraged by this display. Continue reading...
