Arsenal

They should’ve won by more than one goal against a woeful Everton.

Aston Villa

A matter of time before they scored, despite trailing 1-nil until the 87th minute.

Bournemouth

Played a decent style of football, but dropped two points.

Brentford

It wasn’t a style that a typical Thomas Frank coached Brentford team played; they looked all at sea at times.

Brighton and Hove Albion

They made six changes from their last Premier League game; it wasn’t even their best squad. Weren’t scared to attack, even though they played away at Old Trafford. They kept on trying to score; attacked relentlessly and were clinical.

Burnley

They played some good football and got their first positive result of the season with a draw.

Chelsea

They hit the post twice and they just weren’t clinical enough. Despite that, their goalkeeper Robert Sanchez was their best player.

Crystal Palace

They led 1-nil for most of the game and lost 3-1. They missed their coach Roy Hodgson who wasn’t available to be at the game as he was unwell.

Everton

Parked the bus; it was poor coaching and the tactics simply weren’t good enough.

Fulham

It wasn’t their best display, as they only had two shots on target.

Liverpool

They were simply too good in the second half.

Luton Town

There’s no disputing they could’ve won the game.

Manchester City

Despite trailing 1-nil against West Ham United and the fact that Erling Haaland missed a few chances, they still won 3-1 and Haaland eventually scored.

Manchester United

Put in a performance that sums up their season; they lacked a viable plan. It was simple for Brighton and Hove Albion. It’s the worst start to the season for Manchester United in the first five games of any Premier League season, since the 2014/2015 season. They’ve got just six out of a possible 15 points.

Newcastle United

Got a win that they desperately needed as it was only their second for the current Premier League season.

Nottingham Forest

The score should’ve been 2-1 to Burnley in my opinion as there was a goal overturned by VAR in the 76th minute.

Sheffield United

They missed out on three points due to Tottenham Hotspur scoring two late goals. Despite that, Sheffield United showed that they can match it with the best of them.

Tottenham Hotspur

They left it late, as they trailed 1-nil until the 98th minute against Sheffield United. It was the latest winner in Premier League history; 99 minutes and 53 seconds. They play an attacking brand of football scored by Dejan Kulusevski. Richarlison was the match winner, as he scored a goal and provided an assist, as a substitute.

West Ham United

It was well done by them to take the lead through James Ward-Prowse. Despite that, they were outplayed by Manchester City.

Wolverhampton Wanderers

Despite leading 1-nil against Liverpool at half time, but they lost 3-1, which is soul destroying.
