Nottingham Forest 0-1 Arsenal: Premier League – as it happenedA late, deflected winner from Noni Madueke gave Arsenal a vital win in a low-quality game, Forest then missing two good chances to equalise Forest will want – and probably need – to make this game a mess. If it’s open and played through midfield, Arsenal will open them up because, with the guile they’ve added by buying Guimaraes, along with an in-form Odegaard, they have the ability to exploit space. For that reason, Forest need bodies everywhere, especially in the middle of the pitch, forcing them wide, where Saka might just’ve lost the spring in his acceleration following last season’s achilles injury while, on the other side, Eze isn’t going to go on the outside. Elsewhere, 10-man Sunderland trail Bournemouth 2-0 with seconds remaining, while Brighton have splattered Palace 5-0 to move second above Arsenal, their goal difference +18. Ridiculous behaviour.

Madueke breaks Nottingham Forest’s resistance as dogged Arsenal edge to victoryThe theme before kick-off was blanks. Or, more precisely, whether either team could stop firing them at the City Ground. It was a detail to make Oliver Glasner extremely uncomfortable that his Nottingham Forest team had still to score at their own stadium this season. Arsenal, meanwhile, had drawn 0-0 on their previous two visits to this part of the east Midlands. They had only one win in five here. Forest’s frustrations under their new manager go on. It was another spirited performance from them, bits to like, especially a full-throttle performance from Liam Delap in the No 9 position. But, for the fifth time under Glasner, there was not a goal to celebrate in front of the home support. Continue reading...

Evanilson swivels his hips to seal Bournemouth win against 10-man SunderlandBournemouth’s, and Marco Rose’s, wait for a Premier League win is over. Sunderland, locked in the bottom three, are becoming this season’s object lesson in travelling too far, too fast. Once Kevin Danso was dismissed in the 17th minute for the denial of a goalscoring opportunity, Sunderland were sunk. If Evanilson was the match-winner with a goal, an assist and as the player Danso fouled, Régis Le Bris’s team were architects of their own downfall. “A bad day, a bad start,” the Sunderland manager said. Sixth and seventh last season, both teams have struggled domestically while cruising in the Europa League but Sunderland’s troubles deepened. Continue reading...

Manchester United held as Calvert-Lewin’s Leeds leveller keeps pressure on CarrickWhat next for Michael Carrick and Manchester United? Game-wise, the answer is the trip to Como on Wednesday yet after failing, again, to double their league win tally to two, you have to wonder the destination for an already flatlining team. This display was the latest unconvincing outing under the 45-year-old head coach. It featured an odd formation, zero rhythm or control, and the same prevailing sense that the wheels could clatter off anytime. Continue reading...

Gómez halfway-line wondergoal sparks Brighton’s 5-0 thrashing of sorry Crystal PalaceAt last, Fabian Hürzeler has the scalp that matters most to all Brighton fans and in humiliating fashion. Diego Gómez’s breathtaking goal-of-the-season contender from the halfway line, à la David Beckham, was the highlight of another hugely impressive performance from the Premier League’s top scorers as they continued their flying start to the season. Not since a 4-1 thrashing here in February 2024 under Roberto De Zerbi had Brighton tasted victory against their arch rivals from up the A23 – a run of four matches. But having been handed the initiative by Jaydee Canvot’s own goal, a stunned Palace found themselves 3-0 down after 10 minutes. It got even worse for Pierre Sage after Brighton extended their lead through Gómez’s wonderstrike and Yasin Ayari, with Charalampos Kostoulas adding a fourth after half-time and the substitute Jack Hinshelwood’s late strike matching their record 5-0 win over Palace from 1956 in Division Three South.

Manzambi maintains Aston Villa progress with win to seal dismal week for NewcastleThere is a reason why Aston Villa were so desperate to hijack Johan Manzambi’s proposed summer move from Freiburg to Newcastle. The tall, quick, tricky, clever and perfectly balanced 21-year-old Switzerland attacking midfielder looked worth every penny of the record £50m plus fee Villa ended up paying and he duly delighted in showing Tynesiders what they missed. For Newcastle and their disconsolate manager, Matthias Jaissle, there was a cruel irony that Manzambi ended up heading the winner on a day when the Premier League’s CEO, Richard Masters, was in the directors’ box to watch arguably the two teams most affected by the spending rules imposed during his tenure.
