Manchester City have started their title defence with two wins out of two. Eddie Howe will hope Newcastle can give Pep Guardiola's side their biggest test ...

1hr to kickoff: Guardiola hands Bernardo Silva his first start of the season in the City front three alongside Phil Foden and Erling Haaland. 40 mins to kickoff: Silva thrived in midfield last season and only tended to feature in the forward line as a false nine. 30 mins to kickoff: Hmmm, a possible injury concern for City in the warmup. 1st minute: Stones is harrassed into giving a throw-in away and Newcastle continue the attack by winning a corner. There'll be a change in the City back four with Ake hobbling off and Ruben Dias entering the fray. City have the ball at the back and Guardiola's men could do with one of their customary spells of possession. There'll be more than the allocated five minutes and it promises to be a test for the reshaped Newcastle defence. Silva arrows a dangerous pass across his own half and Rodri has to retrieve the situation. 78th minute: City shuffled the ball around the Newcastle box, ending with a prodded half chance for Haaland. Looking at the results some of their fellow Premier League heavyweights have endured in August, City might be very happy to have escaped with a draw. By the time Nick Pope made the first of a catalogue of fine saves to thwart De Bruyne with his boots, it looked like City might run away with things. Trippier was then at the centre of drama when he was red-carded for a challenge on De Bruyne, before VAR downgraded it to a yellow.

Do not type comments in all capital letters, or in all lower case letters, or using abbreviated text. The Premier League is so difficult for everyone. (example: u cannot substitute for you, d is not 'the', n is not 'and'). We give goals away from huge individual errors too often.” Brighton are in fourth place with seven points from their first three games, while West Ham slumped below Manchester United to the bottom of the table.

Ansu Fati fabulous for Barcelona, Man City stressed by Newcastle ... (ESPN)

It's critical Xavi gets it right for Barcelona on the pitch, and let's just say he did it this weekend. PLUS: talking points galore around Europe.

But it looks like Napoli have managed to reload on the fly between Kvaratskhelia, Gio Simeone and [Giacomo Raspadori](http://espnfc.com/player/_/id/271679/Giacomo-Raspadori) up front and Leo Ostigaard and Min-Jae Kim at the back, while also cutting the wage bill and bringing in some much needed transfer funds. [Sadio Mane](http://espnfc.com/player/_/id/169797/Sadio-Mané) who is, you know, pretty good. From Atletico's point of view, there were some disappointing individual performances (Joao Felix, [Marcos Llorente](http://espnfc.com/player/_/id/206474/Marcos-Llorente) and [Nahuel Molina](http://espnfc.com/player/_/id/164826/Nahuel-Molina), with his silly red card, above all) and the result obviously stings (Villarreal are a direct opponent in the race for top four), but there were also encouraging signs that the back three can hold up. [Erling Haaland](http://espnfc.com/player/_/id/253989/Erling-Haaland) hit the post and forced a tremendous one-on-one save from the excellent [Nick Pope](http://espnfc.com/player/_/id/161715/Nick-Pope) before he scored to make it 2-1. [Monza](/soccer/team?id=4007), and you expect Neapolitan schoolchildren to learn both the pronunciation and the spelling of his name. Martin Odegaard, who scored twice, has found his feet and [Oleksandr Zinchenko](http://espnfc.com/player/_/id/217482/Oleksandr-Zinchenko), playing fullback the Pep Guardiola way -- coming inside and playmaking -- offers a different dimension entirely. And if Leeds' forwards weren't running north-south at every occasion, [Kalidou Koulibaly](http://espnfc.com/player/_/id/150312/Kalidou-Koulibaly) likely wouldn't have gotten two yellow cards for pulling back opponents. Stones didn't have a great game and [Ruben Dias](http://espnfc.com/player/_/id/234878/Rúben-Dias) has been inconsistent in recent weeks. [Manchester City](/soccer/team?id=382) were 3-1 down against [Newcastle United](/soccer/team?id=361) at a rocking St James' Park, and it could have been worse, if the referee had given a penalty or [John Stones](http://espnfc.com/player/_/id/157974/John-Stones)' collision with [Fabian Schar](http://espnfc.com/player/_/id/179233/Fabian-Schär). And yes, [Kyle Walker](http://espnfc.com/player/_/id/129358/Kyle-Walker) had a torrid afternoon against [Allan Saint-Maximin](http://espnfc.com/player/_/id/193281/Allan-Saint-Maximin), but the good news is he only plays him twice a year. [Ferran Torres](http://espnfc.com/player/_/id/265869/Ferran-Torres) started in his place) and especially Ansu Fati, effectively moving to a 3-3-4 formation. At this stage, you assume he's going nowhere because with Nico having joined [Valencia](/soccer/team?id=94) on loan, there's nobody else to provide an alternative to Busquets (and no, [Franck Kessie](http://espnfc.com/player/_/id/194711/Franck-Kessié) would have to reinvent himself to play that role.)
