Fernandes has had a quiet season by his high standards. He has only created one 'big chance' - a superb long ball for Bryan Mbeumo against Ipswich - and is making just 2.6 chances per 90 minutes‚ his second-lowest total of any season with United. It is a stark contrast to his superhuman run at the end of last season‚ where he scored or assisted 12 goals in the last 11 games to help them qualify for the Champions League.

ALEX JENNINGS: Talk to people in football about Davide‚ son of Carlo‚ and their responses might as well be about his dad. Amiable. Unflappable. Intelligent. Tactically flexible. Good man-manager. Tale padre‚ tale figlio‚ as they say in Milan. Like father‚ like son. Where Davide diverges from Carlo is a lack of experience - more specifically the absence of a trophy cabinet full to the point of bursting. While Carlo has won the European Cup seven times as a player and manager‚ the younger Ancelotti will be managing in just his second game in the competition at Arsenal's Emirates Stadium on Tuesday night. Work to do‚ too‚ after his Champions League debut saw his Lille side twice blow a lead at home to Real Betis.

Wirtz was one of the biggest movers in the Premier League last season but had a below-par season‚ with many giving him the benefit of the doubt considering it was his first season in the division. But he has continued to struggle this term too‚ and under a new manager‚ with the German yet to score and picking up just one assist in the six top flights matches so far this season. His performances have led to some questioning his place in the Liverpool team‚ and former Reds defender Carragher is now front and centre of that after Wirtz's showing against Manchester City on Sunday.

Riyad Mahrez has risked infuriating his wife Taylor Ward with a comment he made to Dele Alli during the former Tottenham star's live stream. Alli‚ 30‚ was speaking to various footballer friends on his Twitch channel and Mahrez did not appear to appreciate that he was being broadcast live to thousands of fans watching on. Mahrez picked up the call and struggled to hear Alli when he says: 'I'm in London‚ streaming‚ I was just calling people‚ they can hear you‚ they can hear you live on stream bro.'

Having scored in his final outing in front of 85‚000 supporters for his goodbye game on Tuesday night at Estadio Monumental‚ Messi cut an emotional figure on the pitch and has now reflected on the 'joys and sorrows' of his international career. Ronaldo‚ who posted a very different kind of statement explaining his explosive Portugal walkout just a day earlier‚ was among those to offer some kind words in reply to his old foe.

Cristiano Ronaldo hit back at Portugal manager Jorge Jesus and apologised to his team-mates for walking out on them in an extraordinary 2000-word statement.

He's now done just that with a long-winded explanation of the behaviour that looks to have brought a sorry end to his international career at the age of 41.

On a wet and windy Sunday afternoon a week from now‚ supporters of Liverpool and Manchester City will make their way across Stanley Park towards Anfield. Home fans will pose for selfies under the Shankly Gates before heading towards the turnstiles‚ wrapped up tight against the elements‚ pints and chips in hand‚ and cast an adoring eye at the bronze statues of legends that forever live in their hearts. John Houlding‚ just outside the Main Stand. Bill Shankly‚ by the Kop. The one of Bob Paisley in Paisley Square and then‚ of course‚ that beautiful little one of Brendan Rodgers clutching the Premier League trophy just outside the club shop.

TOM COLLOMOSSE: Unai Emery claims 'many clubs' have 'inflated their budgets' as English football tries to adjust to its greatest modern scandal. Manchester City were found by a Premier League independent panel to have illegally pumped in more than £900million to swerve financial rules‚ thanks largely to their ownership group topping up commercial partnerships to the tune of £830.69m. The club have appealed against the verdict. Now Aston Villa boss Emery has become the first Premier League boss to comment on the matter. Asked by Spanish publication Diario de Sevilla what might be the effect on the English top flight‚ Emery said: 'It's an issue that was already known. Because we all have our restrictions‚ we have to sell players to comply with Financial Fair Play‚ we have to figure out how to draw up contracts with new people.

The beginning of the new Premier League season has been scintillating to say the least with fans going through every possible emotion during the opening five gameweeks. While Manchester City and Arsenal being in the top two at this early stage is no great surprise‚ the league has had its fair share of unpredictability‚ with Spurs being bottom and Manchester United failing to take advantage of their kind start on paper. The newly promoted sides all look to pose a decent threat to the weaker sides - especially Hull‚ who have lost just once so far.

Former Tottenham midfielder Paul Gascoigne has pinpointed the moment he knew Spurs would struggle this season. The north London side have endured a nightmare start to their first full season under Roberto De Zerbi as they sit at the foot of the table without a win in five Premier League games. Despite finishing 17th in back-to-back seasons‚ the Lilywhites - who spent over £300million on a rebuild in the summer - have hit a new low‚ with just two points from a possible 15‚ their worst-ever start to a top-flight campaign.

Paul Scholes has claimed that Michael Carrick has been let down by the Manchester United hierarchy with their 'lack of ambition' over the summer. United have managed to win just one of their opening five games of the season‚ a 5-2 victory over promoted side Ipswich Town. Otherwise‚ they have lost to Hull City and Manchester City‚ and have drawn against Everton and Fulham on Sunday. They have also been knocked out of the Carabao Cup at the first time of asking‚ falling to a 3-2 defeat against Brighton in the third round last week despite taking a two-goal lead into half-time.

BOBBY MANZI: Alonso's Blues shipped three goals in a dire second 45 display and they are now winless in three games as they go into the three-week international break. It was their first defeat at their west London neighbours' ground since the Bees' promotion to the Premier League in 2021. In a sluggish first-half‚ both teams managed just two shots on target but Brentford were invigorated after the break and took the game to Chelsea.

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.
