Man City are 4/4 in the Premier League after winning their first Manchester Derby under Enzo Maresca!

Sam Matterface, Alex Crook and Troy Deeney unpack an eventful clash at Old Trafford as well as the rest of the weekend's football.

We ask why Man United seemed to get worse after Phil Foden was given an early red and if Erling Haaland's all important winner should have stood after interference from Enzo Fernandez.

Elsewhere there was another impressive result for Hull who drew away to Chelsea, the Tigers remain unbeaten and are now 8 points clear of fellow promoted side Coventry who sit bottom and goalless after losing 5-0 at home to Brighton.

Plus it was another frustrating weekend for Spurs and Liverpool who were both held to 0-0 draws

And there's some heroes and villains as usual too!

It's been a perfect week (so far) for Premier League sides in Europe, how will they cope with the return to domestic football?

Sam Matterface is alongside Alex Crook and Troy Deeney to look ahead to another busy weekend, and in particular the Manchester Derby.

We ask if Michael Carrick can replicate his previous form in this fixture or if it will be more of the same from Man United when they take on a Guardiola-less City for the first time in 10 seasons.

Elsewhere Spurs and Villa both await a first win and a first goal, is this the weekend they get it?

Liverpool look like they are clicking into gear under Andoni Iraola, will they make it three on the spin when they face an out of sorts Fulham who are managed by former Red Alvaro Arbeloa

Arsenal have won the first blockbuster game of the new Premier League season and remain unbeaten after three games.

Sam Matterface, Alex Crook and Troy Deeney unpack an entertaining game at the Emirates where the Gunners had to come from behind against Chelsea to secure all three points against their London rivals.

Elsewhere Everton came from behind twice to draw with Man United, their deadline day signing Ainsley Maitland Niles scored arguably the goal of the season so far with the final kick of the game at Hill Dickinson.

There's praise for Erling Haaland who bagged his 300th club career goal and more questions about Spurs who are yet to get off the mark this season after their big spending summer.

Plus we have our heroes and villains from the weekend too!

The transfer window is now closed until January and it's time to focus on the football!

Sam Matterface is joined by Alex Crook and Troy Deeney to preview another big weekend in the top flight and to reflect on a chaotic deadline day which saw Enzo Fernandez join Man City, Chelsea fail to replace him and Everton end up with egg on their face.

We also look ahead to the standout game of the Premier League season so far as Arsenal take on Chelsea in what is being billed as the league's best defence against the best attack.

Everton host Man United at Hill Dickinson in what is set to be a tense atmosphere following their chaotic summer activity.

And can Hull make it 3/3 when they host new look Aston Villa?

Sam Matterface, Alex Crook and Troy Deeney unpack a busy weekend of action in the Premier League!

Man United bounced back from their shock defeat to Hull by hammering Ipswich, but Troy still isn't convinced they can compete on all fronts this season based on the performance.

Chelsea produced another goalfest, this time a 4-3 win over Brighton, and with just 25% possession. Can Xabi Alonso's side be title contenders with such a leaky defence?

Elsewhere, Hull made it 2/2 with a win away at Coventry and Spurs can spend all the money in the world, but they cannot buy themselves a Premier League win, they lost 2-0 at home to Newcastle.

Week two of the Premier League is fast approaching and Sam Matterface is alongside talkSPORT's Alex Crook and Troy Deeney to look ahead to a busy weekend!

Man City kick us off on Friday night against Crystal Palace, will we see their new midfielder Ayoubb Bouaddi, and just what kind of impact can the 18 year old Moroccan have in his debut campaign in the Premier League?

Elsewhere Andoni Iraola takes charge of his first Premier League game as Liverpool boss, he takes on a Nottngham Forest side who have lost both games so far this season under Oliver Glasner, will Marinakis be feeling twitchy if the Tricky Trees lose a third straight game in a row?

Spurs new signing Savio, formerly known as Savinho, made an instant impact on his debut midweek against Charlton, next up for them is a tougher test against Newcastle who are looking upwardly mobile following the arrival of Matthias Jaissle.

Plus, we ask if Chelsea are an Emi Martinez signing away being title contenders and how nervous should Michael Carrick be about the prospect of facing another promoted side when Man United take on Ipswich?

Week one of the Premier League is in the books! And what a weekend it was!

Sam Matterface is alongside talkSPORT's Alex Crook and Troy Deeney to unpack all the weekend's action.

Newcastle and Liverpool both paid tributes to the late, great Kevin Keegan in fitting fashion, playing out an entertaining 2-2 draw at St James's Park, but were the hosts unfortunate to concede a last minute penalty?

Elsewhere it was an afternoon to forget for Aston Villa, they were hammered 4-0 by Brighton and it could have been much much worse. Ollie Watkins missed the game ahead of an impending move to Saudi Arabia and his manager Unai Emery was not pleased, Troy tells him he has nothing to moan about.

Plus, we get Crooky's verdict on his big day out at the MKM to watch Hull beat Man United, Troy basks in the glory of Spurs defeat to Brentford, and we pick some heroes and villains from the opening weekend.
