    Liverpool 1-0 Arsenal

    Arsenal have conceded 23 goals in just seven matches at Anfield but they have come from behind to win a Premier League game at the ground on three occasions - more than any other visiting side in the competition.

    If the Gunners can sort their finishing on the counter, they could get back into this.

  4. 'We need to be more clinical'published at 18:26 British Summer Time 24 August 2019

    Watford 1-3 West Ham

    Watford

    Watford manager Javi Gracia speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "We started losing very early, after two minutes we conceded a goal. I thought the team had a really good reaction, dominating and creating chances, but we didn't take it.

    "We need to improve, to be more clinical to try to kill the game.

    "During the second half, West Ham played better and were really dangerous on the counter attack.

    "It was difficult to accept because again the team are starting well and then we get punished for our mistakes.

    "I think in the first half, we had clear, clear chances, and we didn't take it. We need to find the balance because in the last three games, we have conceded seven goals and that is something we need to improve.

    "We need to try and improve in the next game because the players have a good mentality, they make the effort and they work hard to improve."

  5. 'We were good in spells'published at 18:25 British Summer Time 24 August 2019

    Watford 1-3 West Ham

    West Ham United

    West Ham goalscorer Mark Noble speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "It was end to end, a bit like a basketball game in the first half and most of the second.

    "We've got good forward players, [Watford] had some good chances they didn't put away and we went down the end and scored two goals.

    "The goal was so important because it was so early in the game, I think it was only my second touch of the game.

    "We were good in spells, not so good defensively at times, but we came here to win and that's what we did.

    On Sebastien Haller: "Any player who comes to a club with that price tag is going to be under pressure straightaway. He's only going to get better, today he was good and let's hope he can get a lot better."

  6. 'As a team we need to be better'published at 18:24 British Summer Time 24 August 2019

    Watford 1-3 West Ham

    Watford

    Watford goalscorer Andre Gray: "All the defeats have hurt but what can we do, we need to be better, simple as that.

    "We all know what we have got to do and it starts tomorrow on the training pitches. We can't sit down and sulk about it.

    "It doesn't help conceding a pen in first minute but we got back into the game and we were the better team up until they scored.

    "We just keep conceding and as a team we need to be better.

    "We can't use excuses. We looked like we had no life in us."

  7. 'It's not been an easy two weeks'published at 18:23 British Summer Time 24 August 2019

    Brighton 0-2 Southampton

    Southampton

    Southampton manager Ralph Hasenhuttl: "The important thing today was a clean-sheet. It's the first time we've been in a lead.

    "It's not been an easy two weeks after the opening 3-0 defeat against Burnley. It's hard to win in the Premier League and we're glad we've got our first points."

  8. 'We could have done better'published at 18:23 British Summer Time 24 August 2019

    Brighton 0-2 Southampton

    Southampton

    Southampton manager Ralph Hasenhuttl speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "There is joy. We were better today although I think we can play better.

    "Sometimes we gave the ball away too easily. After two games you have no points so you have little confidence, but I still think we could have done better. This was an important win for us.

    "There's no question it was a clear red card. I'm glad Yan Valery was not injured because it looked horrible.

    "We were patient today and waited for our chances. The substitutions were crucial.

    "The problem against 10 men you make one step less than one step more. We spoke at half time about the spaces we can use.

    "Moussa Djenepo is very quick and hard to defend against - in the two games he's played he's made an impact as substitute."

  9. 'Arsenal can get one back'published at 18:22 British Summer Time 24 August 2019

    It's still nip and tuck at the moment. Liverpool have had so many chances but have only been able to get one in. Arsenal have been creating chances as well, it shows they are certainly capable of getting at least one back.

    Sheffield United 1-2 Leicester City

    Leicester City

    Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "We needed to be ready to fight and show resilience and it was important three points for us. We had to change the system in the last 25 minutes to cope with the balls coming into the box.

    "It is a very young group but they are all focused and doing well for me. It was fantastic technique for Harvey's goal and that kind of goal was worthy of being the winning goal.

    "We played two tough games prior to today and we played a really tough team today as well, but we got through it and i'm so proud of the players."

    FT: Sheffield United 1-2 Leicester City

    Sheffield United

    Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "I didn’t think we deserved anything from the game today. Out of possession it was far too comfortable for them and in possession we weren’t brave enough and we turned it over too much.

    "I think the better team won today. I'm not pleased with effort because that is it is just a bog standard thing for me that. Cheers for effort doesn’t tick a box for me.

    "If we keep giving the ball away to good players we are going to create bad situations. In both boxes they were better than us. There is a lot for us to work on."

    Arsenal undone late in the half and manager Unai Emery will be frustrated. The Gunners certainly had their chances and looked like they could trouble Liverpool if they could get their attackers into the game.

    The problem is, as others have found, if you don't punish Liverpool they will eventually punish you,

  14. 'The players showed incredible concentration'published at 18:20 British Summer Time 24 August 2019

    FT: Man Utd 1-2 Crystal Palace

    Crystal Palace

    Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson for Match of the Day: "I thought it was the right victory. I think the players worked so hard for us. They got the equaliser but then we fought back. They had a lot of the ball but we knew that was going to be the case. We made sure that they found it difficult to find the passes they wanted to find.

    On the late winning goal: "It was great to comeback and get the victory after all. If you judge games on possession on corners then people would say we did not deserve it but we are Crystal Palace and looking at our team and our performance of course we deserved to win.

    "We showed a lot of ability in desire, concentration and performance. We are very happy with our victory. It was hard work. The players showed incredible concentration. I was hoping the ball would break on the counter. It was a long, hot afternoon. We always try to go for a winner."

    FT: Man Utd 1-2 Crystal Palace

    Manchester United

    Manchester United goalscorer Daniel James: "First half we were not up to the races but second half we played well. When we got that goal, I honestly thought we were going to win it. It was hard for us to get through, we couldn’t get into the final third, they set up well. I am delighted to score but I think we should have gone on to win it. We were in control and then to go on and lose it is disappointing."
