Premier League: 10 things to look out for on the opening weekend (The Guardian)

Arsenal look to avoid another opening-day stinker, Everton look toothless and will Jürgen Klopp start Darwin Núñez?

This has been a difficult summer for Leicester. Kasper Schmeichel has left, the futures of Wesley Fofana and James Maddison are up in the air, and the Foxes are the only Premier League club yet to sign a player. A club close to qualifying for the Champions League in 2020 and 2021 found last season did not go entirely to plan, with Brendan Rodgers’ side finishing eighth, six points off a Europa League place. A lot of it is centred around the incisiveness of Jarrod Bowen and Michail Antonio on the counter, and while West Ham looked short of creativity during pre-season that is likely to be less of a problem against City. After all, David Moyes will not be making plans for his team to dominate possession. The Portuguese’s decision to go awol was surely premeditated as a latest ploy in the push to leave a club there is supposedly adoration for. Erik ten Hag’s first Manchester United XI for a Premier League game is not expected to include Cristiano Ronaldo due to the wantaway striker’s lack of match-fitness. After hosting Aston Villa, Bournemouth next travel to Manchester City before facing Arsenal at home and Liverpool at Anfield. A point at the Vitality Stadium on Saturday may be necessary to avoid the ominous prospect of losing their first four league games and seeing their survival hopes potentially begin to wash away along the south coast by the end of August. Villa fans will be expecting greater things than last season’s 14th place, and if Steven Gerrard’s players are intent on making large strides up the table, picking up three points in games like this should be a must in their hunt for a first top-half finish since promotion in 2019. Conte’s system is based on getting the best out of his front men, and Kane intends to embrace the expectations. When he was denied his wish, he laboured, scoring only one league goal before the middle of December. He rediscovered his groove under Conte, who joined at the start of November, to finish with 17 in the competition and he carries momentum into the opening game against Southampton, having had a proper pre-season this time. Instead the 30-year-old has made it crystal clear he intends to be playing the first-team football that will all but guarantee him a place on England’s World Cup bound flight to Doha in November. Accordingly the consensus is that Howe will start Pope ahead of Dubravka on Saturday. That, in turn, is set to upset the Slovakia goalkeeper and his agent, who has reiterated that his client is too good to be anyone’s understudy. If pre-season is a time for optimism, it has been particularly pronounced at Tottenham. First Antonio Conte committed to the project, then the club made quick and targeted signings. The goalscorer is gone, the England international is out injured for the next six weeks and Rondón is suspended. The Uruguay forward started on the bench when Liverpool beat City in the Community Shield last weekend, but he appeared to be on the same wavelength as his new teammates after coming on in the second half.

Nunez is quite an addition to the Liverpool attack as Jurgen Klopp refreshes the team to replace Sadio Mane. After scoring 34 goals and assisting four more with ...

It could be a tough start for Forest and they could finish anywhere from tenth in the league to dead last and it wouldn't be surprising to me. While he should score quite a few goals for the Hammers this season, I'd love to know the story that his tattoos have to tell. It will be another strong season for Salah and the Reds and while not attending the World Cup with Egypt will be a disappointment, it will also make for a strong second half of the season where Salah is rested while others aren't. With Christian Pulisic needing to fight for minutes at Chelsea, Chris Richards being in a similar position with Crystal Palace, and Antonee Robinson fighting an uphill battle with Fulham all eyes are on Leeds United's American duo of Tyler Adams and Brenden Aaronson. Adams is replacing Kalvin Phillips who moved on to Manchester City. Leeds need to fill the massive hole that he left in the squad and Marc Roca and Adams have been tasked with that. Coming off of a breakout year that saw him score 11 goals and assist seven more in Premier League play, Arsenal have surrounded Saka with more quality so that he can make the attack tick. Vieira is building something special in South London and Eze's performances will be at the center of making it work this season. Steve Cooper has a tough job getting their new signings to click, but it also has to be an easier job than last year when he took over the team during the season and got them promoted from the Championship. On paper, Forest have made impressive additions but they'll need to ensure that Taiwo Awoniyi and Brennan Johnson are supported well in the attack. The Premier League is back and with that, it's a good time to gaze into a crystal ball of what may happen in the league while everyone is still on level footing. The only players to best him in the past five seasons are Jamie Vardy and Harry Kane. Vardy is struggling with injuries while he ages while Kane is no longer the most feared attacker on Spurs as that title now shifts to Heung-Min Son who tied Salah for the Golden Boot last year. Sven Botman and Nick Pope are significant upgrades while making the addition of Matt Targett permanent is also a solid addition for them. The biggest point in Nunez's favor over the summer's more heralded move of Erling Haaland to Manchester City is that I see him getting more starts in an attack that can match City step for step. Even if he drifts out to the wing, Salah is able to fill the space in the middle, making Liverpool that much more dangerous.

Ahead of this weekend's EPL action, let's go over some of the best players and some great value picks you should consider for your soccer DFS lineups on ...

Don’t let the low price tag fool you — he still averaged 7.2 fantasy points per game last season, with a handful of performances coming in the double digits. The 31-year-old averaged 12.1 fantasy points per game last season, racking up 27 points in February against Everton. Newcastle will be taking on newly-promoted Nottingham Forest and will likely get off to a good start against the former EFL Championship side. CHE ($11,200) — Sterling is poised for another big season this year after completing the move from Manchester City to Chelsea. The Blues have been in disarray since their drama last season and are still trying to put the pieces together, but Sterling should come in and steal the show especially after the departure of Romelu Lukaku. He averaged 12.6 fantasy points per game last season with City, finishing the season with 13 goals and five assists. ARS ($6,800) — Zinchenko made the move from Man City to Arsenal ahead of this season along with Gabriel Jesus. The Ukrainian plays as a midfielder for his national team, but featured almost exclusively as a left back for City under Pep Guardiola. While he has the tendency to push up the field, Mikel Arteta may choose to play him in the midfield and keep Kieran Tierney as the starting left back. NFO ($6,700) — Trippier is heading into his first full season with Newcastle United, after helping his side to an 11th-place finish in 2021-22 when he signed with the club halfway through the season. He averaged a staggering 19.1 fantasy points per game last season, finishing the campaign with 23 goals and seven assists through 35 matches.

Liverpool Premier League 2022-23 season preview, bold ... (CBSSports.com)

Will Darwin Núñez be as good as promised? Can Klopp find a new star to add to his midfield?

Had the Uruguayan not suffered multiple knee injuries earlier in his career, which he would appear to have overcome in recent years, he might have been able to put together a more sizeable resume of goals. This is hardly a crisis for Jota. The fourth choice Liverpool forward is certain to get plenty of opportunities if he and his teammates can replicate last season's feat of playing in every match available to them. For one thing, the body of work is simply a lot smaller. The latter might be gone, but it is reasonable to assume that having paid a club record €75million on Darwin Núñez, they intend to use him from the off more often than not. The 19 year old could well be a beneficiary of the gravitational force of Liverpool's front five, especially whilst he is still something of an unknown for Premier League defenses. The Salah-Mane-Firmino trident has been snapped apart but there is no guarantee that Jota will be one of those who makes up the next trio. Though that is hardly the worst news for Liverpool, it could be a cause for real regret around the rest of England. Here was a player who would drive into the penalty area from deep positions and find his way to a lot of shots. Much like Kelleher, one might assume that Gomez is in a position where he could not realistically be prepared to settle for the role he currently has. Then came the knee injury on England duty and the lost season for Liverpool that may prove to be the turning point in Gomez's time at the club. If there has been a reason for disquiet among Liverpool supporters over their transfer business in Julian Ward's first window as sporting director it has been the decision not to recruit an additional midfielder. Not for nothing did his manager describe the Irish international as "the best number two [goalkeeper] in the world" after his shootout heroics in the EFL Cup final win over Chelsea. Naturally a player of that quality will only be prepared to back up Alisson for so long.

Premier League predictions: Mirror Football pick champions, top four ... (Mirror.co.uk)

The new Premier League season is upon us, and we asked our wide team of writers, reporters and editors just what they think will happen at home and abroad.

It will be City in a canter and I suspect they might break that Champions League jinx for good measure. Tottenham, Arsenal and Manchester United will all be stronger, but still short of winning the title. Manchester City won the Premier League title last season, but to finish with just one trophy the campaign was seen as somewhat of a disappointment. The Dutchman needed the chance to completely remould a squad that slumped to United's worst-ever finish in the Premier League era last year; the three new recruits United have currently sourced will not cut it. I do fancy them to win a trophy though and they should retain their Champions League berth. The top four race looks tight with Arsenal much-improved and Manchester United entering a new era. Tottenham look strong under Antonio Conte but I struggle to see them keeping pace with City and Liverpool for a whole season. Manchester City look formidable - the only question mark is how their squad copes after returning from the World Cup. But with the depth they have available, it’s hard to see it being a major issue. While 99 goals last season was ridiculous, Haaland will lift Pep Guardiola's side to a new level and that's why they'll win the Premier League and Champions League. I've backed Manchester City to win another domestic treble. Manchester City have won four of the last five Premier League trophies and their dominance is showing no signs of waning. As far as the cups go, Arsenal are surely due an FA Cup after missing out for two whole seasons.

Oddsmakers have pegged the quest for the Premier League title as a two-horse race between Manchester City and Liverpool.

Man United's preseason title odds are the longest they've been in over a decade, according to sports betting archive SportsOddsHistory.com. Liverpool, though, finished just one point behind and notched a victory over Man City last week in the FA Community Shield. Tottenham, at +1,400, and Chelsea, at +1,600, are next but are a ways down oddsboards.

How to watch the Premier League in 4K HDR (TrustedReviews)

It's the opening day of 2022/23 Premier League season, here's how you can follow all the football in 4K HDR.

The third option is Prime Video, and with the World Cup starting in November 2022 and continuing into December, their schedule has changed. The second option is BT Sport.

Here’s our guide on how to watch the Premier League in 4K HDR for what’s left of the 2021/22 season. We’ll have to wait and see until a ball has been kicked in anger before we get a sense of what Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur can do, but they’re both heading into the season with positive vibes. It’s been a summer of change for Chelsea and Man Utd; new ownership in the case of the former and new management for the latter. Liverpool took City down to the last match of the season, and we’re expecting those two teams to be favourites for the trophy this season.

Premier League: What to look out for on the opening weekend (Metro)

Can Arsenal avoid kicking things off with another loss in London? And can Manchester City beat traditionally tricky opponents West Ham?

The summer arrival of Diego Carlos in defence should make them a tougher nut to crack. Welcome back to the Premier League, Fulham fans. He had little choice, with five loanees featuring in their play-off final win over Huddersfield. Vieira certainly has plenty of credit in the bank among Palace fans. Twelve months ago Sky also kicked off with Arsenal away to London neighbours and they were pretty dreadful in a 2-0 loss at Brentford. Adult tickets in home sections were priced £90 and £100 for this game.

For better or worse, the Premier League campaign is always a wild ride. He does give Fulham the third-worst odds of staying up (33%), but Leeds (23%) and Southampton (20%) aren’t far behind. Pointsbet gives Bournemouth the best odds of sinking back to the Championship; the Cherries are currently sitting at -200. This year, it seems like the three newest additions — Bournemouth, Nottingham Forest, and Fulham — will only be making a brief cameo on the biggest stage. He ranked Pep Guardiola’s men as the best team in the BPL and gave them a 66% chance of lifting the trophy at the end of the campaign. That means fans around the world are about to strap into another 38-match roller coaster filled with the thrill of victory, the agony of defeat, and, hopefully, some exciting football.

Liverpool rescue a point at Fulham, but could be left playing catch-up (ESPN)

Fulham showed they don't want to be in the Premier League just to make up the numbers again as they drew 2-2 with Liverpool at Craven Cottage.

He is the first Liverpool player aged 23 years or younger to score in a Premier League season opener since Philippe Coutinho in 2015. The other was in 2006-07 when Liverpool drew 1-1 at Sheffield United and finished third. BEST: Aleksandar Mitrovic -- Can he finally do it in the Premier League? On this evidence, absolutely. "We got a point for a really bad game by my side, and now it's a question of how did it happen. Liverpool were much more threatening when he went off just before the hour mark. City have a tough-looking opener at West Ham United on Sunday, but they now have a chance to establish an early advantage over their closest rivals. Klopp was concerned about Liverpool's injury problems before kick-off -- Caoimhin Kelleher, Diogo Jota, Ibrahima Konate, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Kostas Tsimikas and Curtis Jones are all unavailable -- and Thiago Alcantara may now be added to that list. It can only be a matter of time before he starts. But both moments were products of his movement and energy. This is the only the second time that Liverpool has started a Premier League season with a draw against a newly promoted side. LONDON -- Fulham showed they don't want to be in the Premier League just to make up the numbers again as they came close to beating Liverpool at Craven Cottage, with the game finishing as a 2-2 draw.. Aleksandar Mitrovic, who scored 43 goals in the Championship last season, showed that at the age of 27 he might finally be ready for the Premier League. After heading home the first goal, he then won and converted a penalty to make sure the home side collected a point.

Premier League: Bold predictions for EPL award winners in 2022 ... (Sportsnaut)

With the new Premier League season starting we make some predictions on who will win the league's biggest awards in 2022-2023.

The latter, Haaland, is the biggest goal threat on the planet right now, is 22 years old, and is hungry to prove himself in the best soccer league on the planet. This year may be a battle between Kevin De Bruyne and Erling Haaland. The former is the best player in the premier league, and can legitimately do everything on the soccer field. A huge piece of the puzzle will be getting Ramsay to take a bigger step forward this upcoming season. Another favorite is Jacob Ramsay from Aston Villa. Ramsay has taken steps forward every year that he is played in the Premier League, and will be a huge contributor to Steven Gerrard’s team this year. The slate is clean, and Arsenal has a chance to sit on top of the table for at least one day. The next person to mention is Bukayo Saka, who is a truly remarkable talent, but just happens to be young at the same time as Haaland. Saka scored 11 goals and added seven assists for Arsenal last year, and he was only 19 years old.

Jesse Marsch (who has some big New Jersey ties as a former Princeton University player and Red Bulls Head Coach) is in charge, and kept the team up last year on the final day. City have lost Sterling although Liverpool, who will be in the fight, have lost Mané but have brought in Darwin Nuñez. But Liverpool has a lot of talent in its squad, as shown by the two cups it won in 2021-22. Now, this is no great revelation: Manchester City has won five of the last six titles mostly due to the fact that the Cityzens have basically two squads of top players. It might be that the deepest teams in the league will be the ones competing for silverware in 2022-23. Often, the better teams will play much more than the 38 games in the Premier League. For instance, Liverpool, which made three finals last year and finished as runners-up in the league, played 63 competitive games from August until May.

As the Premier League kicks off, welcome to our Bad Predictions ... (The Athletic)

Readers share their most instinctive football predictions for the new season before the opening game later today...

Up front, Patson Daka is a favourite among the Football Manager and FIFA players but he has yet to realise his goalscoring potential in the real-life game. It’s hard to shake the feeling that Wolves used to be more fun. A positive summer transfer window bringing in Ivan Perisic (sure to be an FPL cult hero), Richarlison and Djed Spence, among others, has given the squad a fun glow. Of course, it is not enough for them to merely be a good team. It appears the recent Manchester City-Liverpool duopoly has left many a fan frustrated and in want of new title challengers. A number of you were unsure about Aston Villa, and Gerrard’s managerial career. Captain Kasper Schmeichel has departed for French side Nice. Youri Tielemans is thought to be available for anyone with £30million ($36m) burning a hole in their back pocket. The problem is it feels too obvious: the title winners of the past two seasons spend a lot of money on a brilliant front man to become even better, so surely something will arise to counter-balance all of that? You are allowed to redo your prediction at the end of the January transfer window. We’re talking predictions that come from the overconfident part of the footballing brain; the force that compels you to say, “They’re going bottom left!” before a player takes a penalty. You get it right maybe once in 100 times, but you look like a footballing Jedi when it does come to pass. That Lampard himself mentioned a potential second straight relegation battle late last month didn’t help matters, either.

Corner Picks: Premier League predictions for Manchester United ... (CBSSports.com)

How do soccer players do it? I think about major professional sports in America and their offseasons. For instance, the NFL season began Thursday night with ...

While I like the hire of Erik Ten Hag, he has a lot of work to do to get United to where United think they should be, and it'll take a lot more than one summer to get it done. Forest have spent a lot this summer trying to ensure they stay for a while, but for the most part, this is an entirely new team than the one that won promotion from the Championship. A few preseason friendlies aren't likely enough for the team to gel, and I can see Forest getting off to a slow start. I'll be more surprised if Brighton doesn't get a result than if it does. I should mention that betting soccer this early in the season is tricky with new players and managers adjusting to new situations. We've got a bit of a theme: betting on mid-tier clubs with bigger ambitions facing newly-promoted sides in the opening week. In a typical World Cup year, when the event wasn't being played on something akin to the surface of the sun, we'd have had a World Cup in June and July that would've served as "the offseason." It's probably too much to ask, but Villa did finish ninth in the league last year if you only look at the standings after Gerrard took over for Dean Smith in December. While Europe might be a pipe dream, three points against Bournemouth on the opening weekend isn't. Pick: Aston Villa (+104) Some sportsbooks offer odds on the first manager to be fired, and Bournemouth's Scott Parker could be worth a wager. Typically, a manager saying "we're not good enough" before the season starts doesn't go well. Last season ended in May, and a new season begins here in early August. Hell, some leagues have already begun. After a profitable season last year, Corner Picks is back for what I hope is another profitable season this year. Other leagues like the NBA, MLB and NHL all take around four months off between seasons before the new one starts.

New Premier League season, new Arsenal as debutants Saliba ... (ESPN)

Arsenal delivered an exciting performance as they beat Crystal Palace and got a clean sheet to start the new Premier League season.

It was a tough game, but we won at the end, so very good. "It was very good because we start with a win and a clean sheet. Jesus was impressive as Arsenal dominated the opening 35 minutes while Zinchenko's header was the key component of a clever corner routine which allowed Gabriel Martinelli to open the scoring. Arsenal were on the back foot on the opening Friday night of last season as they lost 2-0 to Brentford but it was a different story under the lights across London this time. Eze is a fine player and as he steps up his return from an ACL injury, the highly-rated 24-year-old will surely improve as he steps into the void vacated by Conor Gallagher, who returned to Chelsea after a season-long loan last term. They had to ride their luck at times with Aaron Ramsdale called into one excellent stop to deny Eberechi Eze early in the second half, but Marc Guehi's late own goal gave them a deserved win which will only heighten the sense of optimism around the club.

Premier League 2022-23 kit ranking - Which club's jerseys are this ... (ESPN)

With Premier League teams unveiling most of their kits for the new season, we've compiled every one and ranked each club by their collective output.

Third: Completing the set for Arsenal is a third kit, fresh and funky in rosy pink -- the first time the club had used the colour as a base for an outfield shirt. As such, we are treated to a hi-vis yellow number with thick dark bands across the abdomen that in turn are supposed to resemble spray paint -- offering a further tip of the hat to local street artists. Home: Claret with speckled "graffiti" shoulder panels of white and sky blue, which are an homage to the kit worn by Billy Bonds' promotion-winning side of 1992-93. Away: After weeks of delay caused by global supply issues, Chelsea pulled off a canny marketing ploy by subtly revealing their away kit while welcoming new signing Marc Cucurella to the club. Home: Saints have abandoned their traditional red-and-white stripes in favour of a large central block of red on a white background, inspired by similar kits worn by the club during the 1980s. Home: The Reds' new home kit is fundamentally just a plain red-all-over football kit, but the webbed knit of the fabric offers some delicious extra texture. Away: If the home kit is something a little different for Southampton, then the away kit represents a total sea change -- quite literally. Home: Forest return to the top flight after 23 years, and their home kit is given a little local flavour with a print design inspired by the Victorian ironwork on nearby Trent Bridge. The precise tone of red is a homage to Giuseppe Garibaldi, who helped to unify Italy in the mid-1800s. The white jersey with navy and neon yellow trim is clean and sleek but is unlikely to live long in the memory. Home: There's a limit as to how much kit producers can meddle with the traditional format of Villa's claret and blue, and 2022-23 is no exception. The concept is endearing, but the garish effect looks like a generic goalkeeper kit rather than a tribute to their unique home. Here's a guide to all the home, away and (where applicable) third alternate jerseys that each Premier League club has available for this coming season.

The Ted Lasso fan's guide to the Premier League: Your starting ... (The Athletic)

Are you ready to dive into the real Premier League after watching every episode of Ted Lasso? We're here to help.

Nathan Shelley: The writers seem to be taking Nate the Great in a Jose Mourinho type broodingly ruthless direction, but Mourinho isn’t managing in the Premier League anymore. We’re still wishing that AFC Richmond would add a women’s side, but the good news is that if you want to extend your viewing beyond the boys, you’ve got plenty of options across the Women’s Super League, too. Forest has already made an appearance in the show, and Ted would surely be delighted to know that their stadium, the City Ground, has a Robin Hood suite. It’s potentially a perfect storyline, made all the more dramatic by Liverpool’s treatment of the team and lack of ambition. The reigning Premier League champions are led by revered manager Pep Guardiola, who is known for both his tactical brilliance and for spending more on his trend-setting matchday outfits than most of us make in a calendar year. Leeds United: If you’re most invested in Ted Lasso as an American trying to get by in the Premier League, then Leeds United might be the club for you. Pick Everton. In the show, the Liverpudlian club is a formidable opponent for Richmond, with a 60-year success streak against the Greyhounds. But in real life? Nearly nine years on to the day of Ted’s world debut, Spurs are one of the most followed clubs in the States. A good-but-not-great club with a stadium designed to also host an NFL franchise and a revolving door of wildly different head coaches, Tottenham has attractive star players who keep them in the running for a Champions League spot (as Ted senselessly said in his 2013 arrival, no playoffs make his job that much easier — not really. Brighton appears to be the club that Richmond replaced in the show’s universe. The potential shame of dropping points is a great motivator for some — and if you need some help as a beginner, we’ve got you covered ( start here though). Nike has been tapped to outfit the fictional club, so it might be slightly easier for American fans of the show to source a Richmond kit than some of the real Premier League teams later on this year. Unless you opt to support Nottingham Forest (honestly, kudos if you do), you might find yourself ponying up the $4.99 a month to make sure a Liverpool-Manchester City meeting is viewable.

Every league in Europe is now dependent on the Premier League's ... (iNews)

The Premier League is now the kingmaker of European football, its money flowing across the continent: This season will be bigger than ever before.

These are the questions that the world is asking. The economic gap between the Premier League and Championship grows every season. The Premier League was not weakened by the global financial and health crisis; it was strengthened. Within the Premier League, there are obvious stratas that are, to an extent, also governed by financial strength. It has the most money and so attracts the best players and coaches, which increases the value of the product and therefore the earning power; the cycle begins again. In 2020, when the revenues of football clubs were decimated by Covid-19’s financial impact, there was much discussion of whether the Premier League was recession-proof.

Fulham Is Back in the Premier League. Staying? That's Harder. (The New York Times)

Fulham has made a habit of bouncing in and out of the world's richest soccer competition in recent years. Is there a business model in being almost good ...

(The lavish spree undertaken after promotion in 2020 backfired so spectacularly that the idea of recruiting too heavily in preparation for the Premier League has entered the lexicon as “ doing a Fulham.”) He is confident that he can avoid the same trapdoors. “There is a feeling that you have to over-invest,” he said. “The Championship is a great league,” Parry said. As ever, at the dawn of a new season, there is a conviction at Fulham that the cycle can be broken. He is not the only one caught in that same quandary. Nor is he merely something of a national hero, scorer of the goal that sent his country to the World Cup. What is noteworthy, though, is the scale of the drop-off. A player who was far too good for the Championship appeared to be not good enough at all for the Premier League. “It is better to be the mouse’s head than the lion’s tail.” The difference, of course, is the division where he finds himself. He is not simply a Serbian international, a fairly constant presence for his country for the better part of a decade.

The Premier League has also been working with referees to try and improve the amount of time the ball is in play during games.

The Premier League’s COVID-19 protocols had seen that ritual parked. There has also been a change to the rules concerning penalties and the position of the goalkeeper.

But a point was the least Fulham deserved as they made a strong start in their bid to avoid relegation for a fourth consecutive season when in the top flight. Another long ball into the box towards Nunez caused panic in the Fulham defence and the ball eventually fell kindly to Salah to score on the opening weekend of the Premier League for a sixth consecutive season. Liverpool twice had to come from behind against newly-promoted Fulham to salvage a 2-2 draw in a pulsating start to the Premier League season on Saturday.

Thomas Tuchel has a lot to work out with his team while Everton can take a lot of positives from the match. It was an unfortunate first half for Everton who performed to the best of their abilities but still went into the break behind. Amadou Onana was in the crowd watching as he'll be in the Everton midfield sooner than later after they agreed to a deal with Lille but for Chelsea, even with Armando Broja on the pitch they were missing a proper nine. Gray put an excellent cross into the box for Gordon but Koulibaly steps up to clear the chance. Patterson played Dele Alli into space and he didn't know what he wanted to do with the ball. He was bright along with Kalidou Koulibaly in making their debuts Saturday but most of the team didn't shine along with them. Thomas Tuchel has a lot to work out with his team while Everton can take a lot of positives from the match. Everton were hit with another injury blow only 18 minutes into the match as Ben Godfrey left the match on a stretcher after a lengthy delay. Ben Chilwell drew a penalty before the half as Doucouré put both hands on his shirt while he was going down in the box. Nunez came to the rescue with nine minutes remaining as he teed up Mo Salah to level and keep up his incredible opening day record of scoring in all six fixtures with Liverpool. Ultimately, it was a point gained by Klopp's men as Fulham outfought them on many occasions while Marco Silva's Cottagers will be heartened by their spirited showing. A clumsy penalty conceded by Abdoulaye Doucouré was the difference in the match as Chelsea defeated Everton 1-0 on opening day. Mitrovic was losing the ball but a penalty was awarded and confirmed after a VAR review.

5 thoughts from opening Saturday of new Premier League season (thescore.com)

Trending News & Rumors for Football, Basketball, Baseball, Hockey, Soccer & More.

The effort was there, and the game was for the taking. The 21-year-old, who's at Sunderland for the rest of the campaign, served up a timely reminder of his ability with a two-goal performance earlier Saturday. He has a lot of ambition, he wants to become one of the best players in his role. Despite the obvious lack of depth, the club allowed Ellis Simms, one of the only other center-forwards in its ranks, to leave on loan. Steven Gerrard can't blame any of Aston Villa's failings on a lack of support from the boardroom. His Premier League-leading ninth assist of the calendar year came off of a brilliant cross-field pass to Ryan Sessegnon in the first half, a bullet of a cross that met his opposite number as he ran into the box. He stretched play and switched gears to accelerate into open space, and he spotted teammates on the run by playing with his head up. Kulusevski accepted the trade-off, cutting inside to deliver balls with incredible pace and accuracy. His pressing helped squeeze out the opportunity that resulted in Rodrigo's equalizer, he held up the ball well, and he was generally the most threatening attacker in Marsch's ensemble. Aaronson faded a little in the second half, but that was understandable given his all-action performance. However, even before these ailments, there were legitimate concerns over the fitness and consistency of Thiago, Jordan Henderson, and the rest who play in front of Fabinho in midfield. Before his 50th-minute substitution, Thiago was overrun and unable to orchestrate attacks in his usual unruffled fashion.
