I think the break in the summer did Erling Haaland the world of good. He seems confident. He seems fresh. His body language is great.
Everything about his performance today was top notch.
Elsewhere, we already knew it had happened but now we finally get official confirmation from the clubs involved that England winger Jadon Sancho, who was at Manchester City's Academy, has moved from Manchester United on a season-long loan to Chelsea.
A statement from Manchester United says: "Manchester United forward Jadon Sancho has joined Chelsea on loan for the remainder of the season.
"The 24-year-old England international sealed his move late on transfer deadline day, with the announcement coming on Saturday evening. Sancho returned to United earlier this summer following a half-season loan spell at former club Borussia Dortmund in Germany.
"He will now link up with Enzo Maresca’s Blues squad at Stamford Bridge. We wish Jadon good luck for the campaign to come."

What is terrifying for every single Premier League defender is, he looks better than ever.
I've never seen him look better, more confident, he looks happy.

I thought West Ham were brilliant. I thought they were brave. I thought they took the game to Man City but in the end the difference is Haaland.
Just the ruthlessness in front of goal, that's why he has scored so many goals. We talk about his touches in games so often, maybe not getting involved, maybe not holding it up as we'd expect him to but in front of goal he is just extraordinary. One of the best I have ever seen.

I think West Ham have got players who can make a difference.
I expect them to kick on a little bit this time.
They've played some good football, they were just up against a sensational City side.
West Ham 1-3 Manchester City
The champions are going to take some stopping. Manchester City hit the front, nine points from three matches, nine goals, Erling Haaland with seven of them.
His hat-trick proves the difference as City win at West Ham. The Hammers got a fortunate goal through Ruben Dias' own goal to make it 1-1 but can have no complaints about the result.

Ronny: If Haaland stays at Man City for long period, he's definitely gonna reduce all the great works of former Premier League attackers to ordinary. Surely.
West Ham 1-3 Manchester City
Manchester City's Erling Haaland wants more goals, he breaks through on the left, the shot goes through Lukasz Fabianski's legs but takes enough of a deflection to stop it going over the line.
At the other end, West Ham substitute Crysencio Summerville almost grabs a goal for the Hammers, but sees Ederson tip his shot on to the post.
West Ham 1-3 Manchester City
Manchester City have now scored more Premier League hat-tricks than any other side in the competition's history (43).

In the second half they have brought on Ilkay Gundogan, Kyle Walker and Nathan Ake.
If you have players like that, that are not starting but you can bring into the game it's a cheat code.
It's a cheat code for football.

Sixty-nine Premier League games now for Haaland since coming to England, 70 goals.
More than a goal a game.

Erling Haaland has seven Premier League goals already this season.
No team in the league (apart from Manchester City) has scored more than six in total in 2024-25. Incredible numbers.

RE: Haaland in FPL. He's in my team, but I feel a fool for not captaining him! C'mon Cole tomorrow!

Kyle Walker and Nathan Ake come on for Josko Gvardiol and Kevin de Bruyne as City look to see this one out.

Haaland looks like he times his run to perfection. He looks like he drops back in. When he goes through, the run, the finish - absolutely brilliant.

Erling Haaland (Manchester City, hat-trick)
It's back-to-back hat-tricks in the Premier League for Erling Haaland. He got three against Ipswich last Saturday in a 4-1 win and now he races on to Matheus Nunes' pass through and there's no doubt about what will happen next.
He lifts the finish past Lukasz Fabianski and that should do it for City, whose fans do the Poznan.

It's so simple they just keep it in front of you, work it out to the winger, inside run, underlap into the space, then ball in behind and then into a position when they can pull it back and fire across goal.
It looks simple but only City do it as well as they do.
West Ham 1-2 Manchester City
A half-chance for West Ham substitute Tomas Soucek but, off balance, he can only prod at the ball with the shot lacking conviction and direction. Wide.
West Ham 1-2 Manchester City
Manchester City are 15-20 minutes away from being back at the top of the league with nine points out of nine.
Liverpool are the only other Premier League side with a 100% record, with two wins from two and they play at Old Trafford against Manchester United in the match of the weekend on Sunday.

A double change for West Ham as Vladimir Coufal and Germany striker Niclas Fullkrug replace Michail Antonio and Emerson.
Soon after another move follows from Pep Guardiola and it is a sign this one is not done yet with a slightly defensive move as Matheus Nunes comes on for Jack Grealish.
