A clash of colours in north London, Manuel Ugarte getting the Ten Hag call and more new faces featuring
After Casemiro’s disastrous 45-minute outing in the thumping by Liverpool, Erik ten Hag looks certain to hand the Uruguayan midfielder Manuel Ugarte his debut at St Mary’s. Last time out, Ten Hag was forced to send on the inexperienced Toby Collyer at the break to try to bring calmness alongside Kobbie Mainoo because Casemiro was so embarrassingly off the pace in gifting goals to Liverpool. Having not featured for Paris Saint-Germain before his deadline-day move to the Premier League, Ugarte got minutes in his legs with Uruguay, including a full 90 in Venezuela on Tuesday before returning to his new home to get to know his teammates. It seems a big ask for Ugarte to perform on Saturday lunchtime after a hectic few weeks but Ten Hag has little to no choice because he needs results and is heavily invested in the 23-year-old midfielder.

Norwegian’s latest hat-trick sets new speed record leaving Thierry Henry and Harry Kane in his wake
By Richard Foster for The Football Mine
As Erling Haaland nonchalantly lifted the ball over Lukasz Fabianski in the 83rd minute to complete his eighth Premier League hat-trick, he joined an elite trio of players. Thierry Henry, Michael Owen and Harry Kane have all scored the same number of hat-tricks but it took them appreciably longer than the Manchester City striker to reach that mark. This was the Norwegian’s 69th appearance, while Henry achieved the feat in 258 matches, Kane 320 and Owen 326.
It was also the second time that Haaland has scored successive league hat-tricks, after his three goals against Ipswich the previous week. In his first season he opened his hat-trick account against Crystal Palace on 27 August 2022 and then repeated the trick four days later against Nottingham Forest. Only six players have ever scored hat-tricks in consecutive Premier League matches.

Jack Grealish on the comeback trail, Iliman Ndiaye offers Everton hope and Declan Rice appears unruffled
While Mikel Arteta fumed at the perceived injustice in Declan Rice’s sending off against Brighton, there was a far more measured response from the England midfielder. Despite admitting he had been “shocked” to see the referee, Chris Kavanagh, show him a second yellow card for obstructing Joël Veltman from taking a free kick, Rice acknowledged that a first dismissal on his 245th Premier League appearance had cost his team victory as they head into the first international break already playing catchup to Manchester City. “I just wanted to apologise to my teammates, which I’ve done, and to the fans,” he said. “When you get sent off, it’s never nice, you get a sense of guilt over you, and I was lucky that my teammates really helped me out and we didn’t lose the game. I’ll learn from it.” Ed Aarons

Pep Guardiola said that even a defender carrying a gun would not be able to stop Erling Haaland after the striker scored a second consecutive hat-trick in Manchester City’s 3-1 win over West Ham.
Haaland, who has started the new campaign with seven goals in City’s first three games, is looking back to his best after struggling with a fitness problem at the end of last season.

What can any team do when Manchester City have such a striker in one of the world’s best-managed squads?
Before this visit of the greatest team in modern English football, a gaggle of excitable young West Ham fans were overheard discussing their side’s prospects for the afternoon. “No, but actually be honest,” said one boy to another. “What do you really think will happen?”
After a moment’s thought, he predicted a 3-1 defeat for the hosts, with Erling Haaland scoring two of the goals. A couple of hours later, his crystal ball had delivered almost the perfect forecast.
