We've had 18 goals in four Premier League games so far today. Will Everton and Middlesbrough deliver some more?

Boro, in their familiar red shirts, get us under way on a glorious late summer's evening at Goodison Park.

Slaven Bilic always has the demeanour of a bloke who has just been told his car needs £750 worth of repairs to pass its MOT. So imagine how miserable he is tonight. His voice is more gravelly. Baggy eyes even saggier.

More from West Ham manager Slaven Bilic: "They showed their character after half-time, we played good football in the second half but I hate to say again, the words I said against Watford, that if you continue to defend like this as a team you can't win a Premier League game.

"There were some positive things in the second half, but we want action not reaction. We have a problem, starting with me. I know that we have a problem and I am the manager and I have to do everything to turn this around, solve that problem."

West Ham manager Slaven Bilic: "They deserved it. I felt embarrassed at half-time. We were three down and we can say that some of the goals were individual mistakes. 

"The penalty is hard to explain as the opponent is nowhere near our player. But we can't make so many mistakes when we don't have the ball. The problem is big, we can't say we were just unlucky.

"It happens so many times at the start of the season it is simply too many times."

Manchester City striker Kelechi Iheanacho: "Kevin de Bruyne is a brilliant player. He is very intelligent. He has good qualities. We are happy to have him in our team. We are happy when we win a game, but we need to focus on wining the next game. When I go out before the game, I have confidence that we are going to win.

On the sending off of Nolito: "I thought the referee took the right decision. That's the game."

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola: "Our high pressing was not perfect today, we had problems with controlling the Bournemouth build-up, but we created a lot of counter attacks.

"We are so lucky that we have Kevin de Bruyne with us. It was a fantastic performance."

On the sending off of Nolito: "The referee took a decision and we have to accept that."

Sgt Pep has just been out in front of the cameras. Don't think he is convinced Nolito should have been shown a red card...

Full quotes to follow.

Finally something has gone wrong for Pep Guardiola.

Unless Manchester City appeal - and are successful - Nolito's rather silly head-butt has just earned him a three-match ban.

One of the games he will miss is the trip to Tottenham on 2 October.

Other than that, Guardiola and City have had as comfortable an afternoon as it is possible to enjoy in the Premier League.

Played 8. Won 8. Scored 25. Against 4. Pep seems to have settled in OK.

West Ham's Havard Nordtveit: "We have the ball possession and they score three goals, that is a little bit too easy. We reacted good after half-time, we let them score an unbelievable goal against.

"It's a hard day. You have to continue to work hard. When we lost the ball we won it straight away again so the second half was much, much better but in the end it is no points.

"When you are 3-0 down it is hard to come back to win the game. If they didn't get the fourth goal they would begin to get nervous. It's all about post, and we have to work hard every week."

Everton are unchanged from Monday's 3-0 win at Sunderland.

That means Ross Barkley retains his place and Gareth Barry becomes the third man to reach 600 Premier League appearances.

Middlesbrough were beaten 2-1 by Crystal Palace last time out and they make three changes.

Out go Adam Clayton, Cristhian Stuani and Viktor Fischer, with Marten de Roon, Gaston Ramirez and Emilio Nsue added to the starting line-up.

It's a landmark day for Gareth Barry.

The Everton midfielder makes his 600th Premier League appearance and is only the third player to reach that milestone, the others being Ryan Giggs and Frank Lampard.

Stay here for all the post-match reaction from a goal-den afternoon in the Premier League. But if dedicated coverage of Everton v Middlesbrough is more your thing then head over to this page.

And it is a special day for Toffees midfielder Gareth Barry...

Arsenal goalscorer Theo Walcott: "We started the game very positively, on the front foot and right on them, we managed to quieten the fans down. 

"The result and performance was key. It was a shame we couldn't keep the clean sheet but four goals away from home, you are always going to get the win.

"We have a lot of great characters in the dressing room. We have been in this situation before but the next step now is Tuesday's match."

Leicester midfielder Danny Drinkwater: "We knew we had to come back to the Premier League and had to carry on from where we left off in the Champions League. 

"We have been away for the first time as a club and it was new for us. So it was a relief to come back and not suffer a European hangover. Getting three points was the most important thing."

On two-goal Islam Slimani: "It was a great performance, he deserved his goals. He is a player who has fitted in very well. He is a hard worker and deserves his goals."

T: Relegation battle for the rest of the season for West Ham. They are in big trouble. Zaza and noble diabolical!!

Phil Jones-Davies: So City, Arsenal and WBA all win by scoring four goals. Champions Leicester only manage 3. Poor show ;-)

Bishop Yinkus: What a goal by Xhaka!!!! What Henderson can do Xhaka can do better

It was always going to be difficult for the hosts after they lost Jake Livermore to a straight red card in the first-half while already a goal down from Alex Sanchez's first. Robert Snodgrass' penalty in the second offered Hull some hope, but Arsenal never really looked in danger of losing this one and they move second in the table.
