Today it was massive because of the consequences, but this is the Premier League, it is ruthless. In the Premier League you have to master different phases. Sunderland have won their opening game in just one of their last nine Premier League campaigns (D4 L4) with that victory coming against West Ham United last season (3-0).
Wolves sink teeth into Preston; Blackburn stun BoroSouthampton’s late show leaves Stoke pointlessCharlton maintained their perfect start to the Championship season with a 2-1 victory at West Ham in a pulsating London derby to pile more pressure on the Hammers manager Nuno Espírito Santo.Lloyd Jones and Tyreece Campbell put Charlton 2-0 ahead before Joel Piroe, signed on loan from Leeds, marked his first appearance for the east Londoners with a goal that set up a frantic finish. Taty Castellanos then missed a stoppage-time penalty for the hosts that would have salvaged a point. Continue reading...
It would be fascinating to know what recruitment algorithms or eagle-eyed staff in Ipswich’s recruitment department spotted the potential and capability in Emersonn to score the goals to keep them in the Premier League. Thirteen games, no goals and a serious knee injury at the Brazilian side Athletico Paranaense, two league goals in 17 games at the Turkish side Goztepe, then six in 28 at the French side Toulouse. A modest return, for sure, but it doesn’t scream ready to break down doors in the English top flight.Ipswich have spent more than £150m this summer, intent on not making the same mistakes as the last time they came up, which detailed analysis presumably showed was not spending enough money. Emersonn became a club record signing, at £24m plus add-ons, beaten a month later by the arrival of the attacking midfielder Julio Enciso, for £26m. Continue reading...

It’s 2-0 at the Den and hapless Norwich are staring down the barrel of their second league defeat of the season in two games.Manchester United: The club has agreed a deal worth an initial £65m for Carlos Baleba and the 22-year-old Brighton midfielder will have his medical this weekend, writes Jamie Jackson.

Jack Clarke, 25, was signed by Ipswich from Sunderland two years ago in a deal worth £20m. Of those seven, Julio Enciso, who joined from Strasbourg for an undisclosed fee, was the star, setting up Town's first goal by intercepting Luke O'Nien's sloppy pass and dribbling past Dan Ballard. Ipswich's next match is at home to League One Leicester City in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday (19:45 BST).
Little about the office tucked into the corner of the Academy of Light gives any clue it belongs to the man leading Sunderland's first European adventure in over half a century.
It was an occasion to savour for the thousands of Coventry supporters who flocked to Emirates Stadium for their club's first Premier League game since 2001. A more realistic test for Coventry will come against fellow newcomers Hull City next week and the Sky Blues will look to inject early momentum into their campaign by opening their account at the Coventry Building Society Arena. Lampard's side can draw inspiration from Sunderland and Leeds, who both avoided the drop last season, but seven of the past nine sides promoted have still gone straight back down to the Championship.
