Rodrygo's situation has not improved this season. As we reported in the summer, Xabi Alonso always planned on making Arda Guler one of his key figures, and that has played out as expected.

Ten games in, and it's just as we all suspected. Arsenal, Manchester City and Liverpool were the clear top three heading into the Premier League season, and Arsenal, Manchester City and Liverpool are the current top three. In other words, you could've taken a two-month nap the night before the Liverpool vs. Bournemouth season-opener and you wouldn't have really missed anyth-- OK, fine. Beyond the top three in the table, pretty much nothing has gone to plan.

"I think for every player who arrives to the Premier League, their first season is very difficult, the 34-year-old told Flashscore. It's very physical and demanding and the pace of the game is completely different."

Guglielmo Vicario (Tottenham): I know he was on the losing team at home to Chelsea but his Spurs team-mates abandoned him. He faced 18 shots, nine shots on target, an xG of 3.36 for Chelsea and he kept them in it. He didn't quit on his team. Nico O'Reilly (Manchester City): This kid is frightening.

The player, who cannot be named for legal reasons, escaped unharmed, with the Metropolitan Police confirming that a full investigation has been launched.

He scores goals, he works hard, he's having a purple patch and he's put himself in a position where Thomas Tuchel will definitely have to look at him," Rooney said on the latest episode of his podcast The Wayne Rooney Show.

Bournemouth don't have a great record at Manchester City since their first promotion to the Premier League in 2015, the Cherries have lost all eight of their league visits to the Etihad Stadium, scoring five goals and conceding 31 but this isn't an ordinary Bournemouth team. The south-coasters currently sit second in the Premier League. That is despite the fact that they lost some of their biggest stars (including three-quarters of their defence) over the summer,

Another day, and more across Europe this weekend!

Saturday's trip to the City Ground landed a year to the day since the Portuguese was named as Erik ten Hag's successor and came during the best spell of his topsy-turvy tenure. United arrived on a run of three straight wins and Diallo's late volley maintained their unbeaten record, securing a 2-2 draw as Sean Dyche's Forest were denied a comeback win.
