JACK GAUGHAN AT THE ETIHAD: Rayan Cherki raced back to halfway. He'd just given former Manchester City academy graduate Daniel Grimshaw the eyes‚ a second home goal of the evening‚ and then compelled to get the tie restarted as quickly as possible. Clearly‚ Cherki wanted more goals. More opportunity to make up for the lost half at Old Trafford last weekend‚ when he was withdrawn at the break owing to Phil Foden's red card. More opportunity to have some fun. Maybe to prove a point‚ if such things are possible on a straightforward Thursday night against Championship opposition‚ although Maresca visibly sighed at some flicks. Fortunately for Mathias Kvistgaarden‚ his wits were very much about him by the time Cherki had made it back to the centre circle‚ hurling the ball in the Dane's direction. With impressively quick hands‚ Kvistgaarden just about stopped it from bursting through his fingers.

Young stars do not reach their potential if they have a nightmare parent behind the scenes‚ Jamie Carragher has warned. The pushy parents issue has been in the spotlight after Man United's prodigiously talented 15-year-old‚ JJ Gabriel‚ stunned the club by informing them that he wants out - a play orchestrated by his father Joe O'Cearuill. Daily Mail Sport on Wednesday lifted the lid on O'Cearuill's behaviour being a nightmare for the club‚ riling up families and making a number of outlandish demands.

ISAAN KHAN AT PORTMAN ROAD: In the red half of Manchester‚ a 15-year-old child in JJ Gabriel is trying to force a way out of his club. It's a markedly different story in the red portion of London‚ Max Dowman‚ 16‚ lighting up Portman Road to further bolster his case of regularly breaking into the Arsenal first team. That is not a given‚ for the likes of World Cup winners Mikel Merino and Martin Zubimendi have yet to start in the Premier League this season‚ for example. Yet‚ Dowman is a mercurial talent‚ one who we'll see plenty of in the months ahead.

IAN LADYMAN: If Enzo Maresca is lucky we will one day look back and ask when it was we finally felt he had truly taken hold of Pep Guardiola's Manchester City and claimed it as his own. If he is really lucky and if he does enough and wins enough to stick around for the long-term‚ then we may reflect on derby day in September 2026 as the day we finally drew a line under the years of Guardiola genius. So far it's been a slow burn for Maresca at City and that's because Guardiola still has his name and his principles running right through this City team. Phil Foden‚ Erling Haaland‚ Ruben Dias‚ Rayan Cherki. It's impossible not to see the great Catalan in so much of what they do.

Arteta's side maintained their 100 per cent record in their title defence on Saturday night thanks to goals from Bruno Guimaraes and Bukayo Saka‚ but it could have been a very different story. The score was 0-0 when Sunderland were awarded a penalty after referee John Brooks adjudged Ezri Konsa to have dragged Dan Ballard to the floor at a Sunderland corner. After a VAR check‚ the decision stood‚ but David Raya dived low to his left to keep out Enzo Le Fee's effort.

RIATH AL-SAMARRAI AT THE TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR STADIUM: After four league games‚ De Zerbi has amassed zero wins and‚ for the first time in the club's history‚ zero goals. It would seem that his superiors in the recruitment department skipped the most important aisle on their recent trolley dash. Because how is it possible to spend £320million in the pursuit of such a blunt object? Where is the protein in this meal? If scoring is the main aim of this silly game‚ then the early signs point to colossal failure‚ over and again‚ and there isn't much further to fall after back-to-back finishes of 17th.

MATT BARLOW: The Brazilian was left out of De Zerbi's squad after rejecting a move to Everton before the transfer deadline‚ which caused a move for Iliman Ndiaye to fall through. Spurs turned instead to sign Mykhailo Mudryk who was injured in training this week and out for up to two months. Richarlison‚ top scorer last season for Spurs with 11 Premier League goals‚ has been exploring legal action to have the final nine months of his contract nullified amid interest from Vasco da Gama in Brazil.

Manchester United coach Darren Fletcher hit back at an 'abusive' fan after players did not stop to sign autographs following their Champions League win over Sabah. Footage shared on social media showed Fletcher walking over to a section of Man United supporters‚ who had been waiting close to the team buses after their 4-0 win at Old Trafford on Thursday night. Fletcher‚ who is currently the head coach of Man United's Under-18 side‚ specifically picked out one supporter having taken exception to their language towards players.
