2 h. ago Harvey Barnes double helps Newcastle derail Manchester City revival

Newcastle’s recent slide left them 15th in the Premier League at kick off but, by the end of an always absorbing, sometimes almost anarchic, evening they had ascended to Cloud Nine.It is very hard to argue that Eddie Howe is not an elite coach – what price he ends up eventually being poached by Liverpool as Arne Slot’s successor? – but, until this watershed win, his record against Pep Guardiola was pretty dismal. In 16 previous Premier League matches against Guardiola’s Manchester City, with Bournemouth and Newcastle, Howe had lost 14 and drawn two. All that changed as, with Harvey Barnes scoring twice, his players dealt a potentially debilitating blow to City’s title hopes. Guardiola’s side now sit third, four points behind Arsenal and one in arrears of Chelsea. Continue reading...

5 h. ago Jiménez averts danger for uncertain Fulham with late winner against Sunderland

Uncertain times at Fulham. The word is out that the club’s ownership would like to extend Marco Silva’s stay. The manager himself has been non-committal, having previously been explicit about a lack of summer transfer business. Raúl Jiménez’s winner, coming when it seemed Fulham were incapable of scoring, should at least still choppy waters for now and lifted Silva’s team away from the increasing threat of a relegation battle.The sheen has been fading from his regime, after last season’s record points tally and enterprising football, going a touch stale, though he could successfully argue little of that is of his making. The Khan family gambled on stasis, rarely a recipe for success when others spend money like it is going out of fashion. Continue reading...

5 h. ago Jiménez calms choppy waters at Fulham with late winner against Sunderland

Uncertain times at Fulham. The word is out that the club’s ownership would like to extend Marco Silva’s stay. The manager himself has been noncommittal, while also making explicit his dim view of a lack of summer transfer business. Raúl Jiménez’s winner, coming when it seemed Fulham were incapable of scoring, might still choppy waters for now. It lifted Silva’s team away from the increasing threat of a relegation battle but the manager stayed noncommittal. “I don’t need this type of performance to make important decisions,” he said.Last season’s record points tally and enterprising football has been replaced by staleness and sterility, and Fulham’s manager could argue little of that is of his making. The Khan family ownership gambled on stasis, rarely a recipe for success when others spend big. Jiménez’s goal was a measure of the veteran striker’s determination to keep trying when other heads would have dropped but relying on him remains an indictment of the lack of funding Silva an...

5 h. ago Liverpool in disarray as Nottingham Forest storm Anfield again with 3

Nottingham Forest’s victory here last season was a blip in an otherwise commanding Premier League home campaign for Liverpool. Their repeat this season, a far more convincing triumph under Sean Dyche, was symptomatic of the problems engulfing the faltering champions. Arne Slot cannot pin set-piece failings on this one.Forest were exemplary as they recorded their biggest victory at Anfield. Goals from Murillo, outstanding at both ends of the pitch, Nicolò Savona and the superb Morgan Gibbs-White inspired a deserved victory for a Forest side that also kept a first clean sheet in 20 Premier League matches.

5 h. ago Pino stunner sees Crystal Palace inflict painful start on Rob Edwards at Wolves

It was in the 69th minute of this match when Yeremy Pino wheeled away in celebration after doubling Crystal Palace’s lead, his delicious shot from the edge of the box crashing in off the underside of the crossbar. Down in the away technical area, Oliver Glasner was also on the move, the Palace manager briefly dancing on ice as he almost lost his footing amid the delight. By the end, the delirious away supporters were asking their goalkeeper Dean Henderson for song suggestions.For Wolves and Rob Edwards, this his first game in permanent charge, there was only more pain. Pino scored six minutes after Daniel Muñoz opened the scoring to earn a win that propels Palace into fourth. Wolves remain on two points and rooted to the bottom of the Premier League after a dozen matches; they are the only winless team in the top seven tiers of English football and hurtling towards the Championship.

In a week when domestic accidents troubled Chelsea, they had no such issues at Burnley. Without the injured Cole Palmer, who fractured a toe after colliding with a door at home, they avoided a slip here, escaping without even a fissure.There was the occasional early threat of a bloody nose, but even not at full speed, Chelsea were able to halt Burnley’s industry. Pedro Neto and Enzo Fernández were the matchwinners but Chelsea did not make the most of dominating possession against a side that had two meek shots on target. Continue reading...
