Manchester City return to winning ways, beating Bournemouth 3-1, and are now up to second on the ladder.
And Haaland returned to the scoresheet with 2 forst half goals to set the course.

It's Nuno Espirito Santo's first win as West Ham manager in their deserved 3-0 win over the Newcastle United magpies.
A special word for Jarrod Bowen for the Hammers - had maybe 3 big chances to score and really looked dangerous all day without the ball finding the back of the net!
Newcastle just wasn't in the game today once the Hammers took the lead from an own goal by the magpies defense closing in on half time.

After Bowen hit the post and Newcastle came down and scored through Murphy I thought .....another bad night coming and gave up on us .....wasn't expecting that scoreline when I woke up this morning ......COYIs

I did not watch game out pure frustration watching the last two games i only found out when my English mate rang me from the ground telling me we won. Loved the highlights i am know hoping we have turned the corner.

WOW!!
Sunderland remain unbeaten at home this season, drawing today with Everton 1 all.
Who'd have thunk? 😉

Where is your EPL club after 10 matches?

The Boro lads never gave up, finally drawing their overnight match with Leicester 1 all with Luke Ayling rescuing a point at the King Power!

Tottenham show some Euro form without Ange and trounce Copenhagen 4-0.
Huge class difference told but some nice goals ( and a missed penalty ).
Come on Ye Spurs.

Did someone say "goals"?
Hallelujah!!
You're right champion @Halbrowne61, so good to see some go forward.
Actually, Spurs so remind me of our Wests Tigers. Just lack some quality to not compete well with the so-called big boys.
Thankfully, winning breeds a good mentality so hope the long-game has time to show dividends.

Holy toledo!
When you mentioned goals, champion @Halbrowne61, what about the effort by Micky van de Ven???
This is a goal for the ages!!

When I was reading about the game played mid-week at Spurs fantastic stadium, just look at the photo below and the massive number of empty seats!
All down to huge ticket prices.
End of.
Tells you about this commercial attitude (and that of any sporting club, including our NRL) where the value of the product loses out to fan support, where the game is put out of reach of the core fans.
