The Manchester City of autumn 2025 is work in progress, low on previous star quality but still full of possibilities. The presence of Erling Haaland in his currently devastating form is a cast-iron guarantee they will be sticking around for a while yet.The ninth minute saw Haaland score his ninth Premier League goal of the season. Supplied by Josko Gvardiol, Haaland was left with plenty to do but his power and speed completed the job, bustling through Sepp van den Berg and Nathan Collins to clatter past Caoímhin Kelleher. At 25, and handed a leadership role by his manager, Haaland is thriving under added responsibility. Continue reading...

12 h. ago Grealish grabs late winner as Everton end Crystal Palace’s unbeaten run

Oliver Glasner looked on aghast while his Crystal Palace players rubbed their heads and sank to their knees in sheer disbelief. As well they might. Palace’s 19-game unbeaten run is over, vanishing against a late and thoroughly unexpected Everton recovery capped by Jack Grealish’s first goal for David Moyes’ team.Everton have been Palace’s bogey team for several years but their first away win since 2014 beckoned after Daniel Muñoz gave the visitors a deserved interval lead. There are some miracles that Glasner can not conjure, however, and after Iliman Ndiaye hauled the hosts back into the contest from the penalty spot a fortunate 93rd minute strike from Grealish condemned Palace to their first defeat since 16 April. It was an outcome no one would have predicted for the majority of the contest. Continue reading...

14 h. ago Defeat to Aston Villa exposes struggling West Ham’s lack of clinical finishing

West Ham are not a bad team, far from it. There is talent in their squad, and desire. You can see it in every tackle, in every gut-busting run and in the frustrated body language when a pass does not quite come off. That energy is matched on the sideline, with Rehanne Skinner animated throughout their 2-0 defeat to Aston Villa – “Hold the line”, “Come closer”, “Talk to her” and “Fion can’t get out” are among the many commands from the technical area, with those behind the dugout treated to the thoughts of the manager while the action is under way.Skinner is in it, she is engaged, the players are engaged. So what is not working? Continue reading...

Ruben Amorim will be pleased the only storm Manchester United had to navigate was provided by the skies. The head coach witnessed a rare comfortable victory against Sunderland to alleviate the pressure on him for a fortnight at least.Mason Mount and Benjamin Sesko scored their first home Premier League goals for the club, although having joined two years apart, it indicates some of the problems Amorim has been dealing with. Apart from a brief scare on a penalty that never was, life was straightforward for United as they secured a third win and first cleansheet of the season amid downpours and gales but, like the Old Trafford roof, the hosts did their job.

While 16% of Arsenal’s goals under the Spaniard have come from set pieces – a figure surpassed only by Tony Pulis and Sam Allardyce of those who have managed that many games in the Premier League – they showed they are still capable of breaking down teams who come to defend with a low block as well.

55 h. ago Semenyo’s double downs Fulham and sends buoyant Bournemouth second

At Bournemouth, where Fulham had lost on their last three visits, Marco Silva’s team were tweaking the noses of Andoni Iraola. They had suffered in the wind and rain only to take the lead through Ryan Sessegnon’s well-crafted goal. Silva’s substitutions had turned the game in Fulham’s favour, Samuel Chukwueze combining with Sessegnon almost as soon as he arrived into a pitched battle of a contest.Step forward Antoine Semenyo, one of the Premier League’s players of the season so far. His slaloming run down the byline and drop of the shoulder confounded Bernd Leno to score from the narrowest of angles. Next, the Ghanaian sent Justin Kluivert away to smash in a gorgeous long-range strike. Semenyo’s injury-time second, from a trademark warp-speed counter, supplied by another sub in Ben Gannon-Doak, completed a sweet home win. Bournemouth climbed to second in the table, only Liverpool above them. Just when Fulham were set for fourth time lucky they were denied by Iraola’s expert in-game ...
