Jeremy Doku's first touch in the Premier League prompts a foul tackle right through the back of him. Welcome to England, son!

Tim Ream has his first clearance to deal with inside 30 seconds. Get used to it, Tim. It's likely to be a tough afternoon.

I was at the Lowry Theatre in Salford on Tuesday night when Erling Haaland was presented with the PFA Player of the Year award.

Two nights later, he was crowned Champions League player of the year by Uefa.

He scored in both games against Fulham last season.

Just saying.

Four intriguing games in the Premier League are getting under way.

Man City are looking to go top by beating a Fulham team that recently bagged a point at Arsenal, Burnley are looking for a first point/s against a Spurs side with some renewed swagger, it's a battle of the big squads at Stamford Bridge and a clash of the little guys at the Gtech Community Stadium.

Fulham's players will wear black armbands this afternoon in memory of their former owner Mohamed Al-Fayed.

He might be well known for the Michael Jackson statue he put outside Craven Cottage but his impact on Fulham as a whole was far greater.

Al-Fayed took them from the bottom tier of English football into the Premier League - and a Europa League final under Roy Hodgson in 2010.

Without Al-Fayed, it is fair to assume Fulham would not be where they are now.

Only Rico Lewis is involved for them today - starting on the bench - but Manchester City were responsible for an incredible 10 members of the England Under-21 squad that was announced yesterday.

Some are at City, some are on loan and some - like Cole Palmer - have just been sold.

It just shows what a phenomenal youth set-up City have these days.

Everton

Everton forward Arnaut Danjuma says: "Hectic to say the least. We started alright and over the course of the game we played good. Always difficult to say that if at the end of the game you only take a point.

"But if you look to the past, the last two seasons have been very difficult for Everton. I keep saying it again and again, we are in the middle of a process, it is good to see that the fans are backing us and believe, the players and the staff believe too.

"It is about finetuning the details because the feeling in the changing room is the same, 'We should have won'. On one side that is good because it means you are nearly there, on the flipside it is frustrating because you need to tip it over the edge [towards a win].

"Against Fulham and Wolves we felt the same, the minute we switched off we conceded and then it is always hard to get back into the match."

On the drop in momentum after the first goal: "We have moments in the game where we need to kill the opponent, make sure they are dead. This seems to be a common denominator so far this season. There is always a moment where we take our foot off the gas and if you can get that right it will improve results massively."

On half-time message: "The manager came in and said we were the better team in the first half but we should have had more goals on the scoresheet. Unfortunately in football you can say all you want but at the end you don't feel good if you can't win.

On Pickford's late save: "We all thanked him for it, I was stood near the post and thought 'Oh no, is it not going to be our day?' But fair play to Jordan, it was a great save and he continues to be massive for us."

A lot was made of Forest's terrible away record in the Premier League last season so it will be interesting to see if they can improve it this year.

Chelsea are getting going. They scraped past Wimbledon in the EFL Cup but it was good to see Raheem Sterling on the scoresheet against Luton, he looks like he's confident.

At a club like Chelsea you have to have the right attitude. The fans demand success, it is about winning now, and he is not shying away from that and is not making excuses.

He's getting the players in now to make sure the team get back to where they want to be.

I do like the fact that at the club it's not about him, it's not 'me' it's not 'the players' it is 'the team.'

Every player seems to have a chance, there is a level playing field, there's no 'I've seen you and don't fancy you' about Pochettino. He's having a look at every player that's in the squad.

Fulham got a point at Arsenal against the odds and Manchester City are not up to speed yet but they're absolutely relentless. You can't see anything else other than a home win here.

They've not really hit the straps but they're just doing enough which is pretty ominous for everyone else because when they do get going I think they'll be trouble.

Sutton's prediction: 4-0

Jack Grealish has been ruled out of today's game with what is being described as a slight thigh problem.

Manchester City don't seem too concerned but I wonder if that makes Grealish a doubt for England's forthcoming games against Ukraine and Scotland.

I was surprised that Raheem Sterling didn't get the call up to the England squad, he is probably justified on the back of the first few games of getting into this one.

We know Gareth Southgate has his favourites, and he will always pick that backbone of the team that he prefers.

But it won't be long until Sterling is back if he continues in this vein of form.

Raheem Sterling has experienced enough different types of managers to be self aware enough to know what gets the best out of him.

Mauricio Pochettino is one of the most adept managers in the man management department.

He's excellent tactically, I'm sure his training sessions are very detailed and specific to the player, but we know the best managers also have that ability to motivate different players in different ways, to put an arm around the shoulder or a kick up the backside.

It's flabbergasting isn't it? All the money spent and the amount of outgoings to, but that is what it takes to remain in the Premier League.

All of the clubs will of course have their own different objectives, Bournemouth (5th highest spenders) and Burnley (7th highest) are clearly looking to assure their status.

Newcastle (8th highest) have a big season in store with their dreams of the Champions League and staying in those spots too - they are well aware of what it takes to compete in Europe and fight to stay in those spots too. Big spending but there have been some clever moves in there.

I've not been impressed with Bournemouth. The change of manager came with a reputation for the work Andoni Iraola did at Rayo Vallecano but I don't quite understand what they are when they're in possession of the ball, they seem to be quite direct.

Brentford's home record is pretty phenomenal. They're a good home team, Yoane Wissa and Bryan Mbuemo are really important players for them and they've been stepping up with Ivan Toney not there.

And just the seven deadline-day signings for Nottingham Forest as well eh Dion.

What I fear for is those clubs who have very big squads.

Forest for example now have around 30 players, and the issue there is not neccesarily what's happening on the pitch but managing those players who aren't playing.

You have to pick a squad of 25 players for the league and that means you have 5 or 6 that are not included. How do you manage all of those players coming in?

From the Forest ownership it always seemed to be the plan to get numbers in to the club and find a way to make it work.

Before Christmas when we thought Stever Cooper's job was under threat, the ownership came out and said no, he is staying put. They gave him a new contract too.

Finishing 17th was the ultimate goal last season and they achieved that.

If they stay in the Premier League again this season, I know that sounds like an underwhelming target, but to secure a third consecutive season in the league having been out of it so long will be a huge success.

Man City players just have that self belief and confidence that they get from the manager, from within themselves, and the standards that are set every day in training.

There are no guaranteed starters, Guardiola watches training and then decides based on what he sees.

The players are essentially always on hot coals, am I playing? Am I not? They've got to earn the right every single week to step out on the pitch.

That's why every single player is always on it, and it will remain like that for as long as the manager stays.
