Saturday's action in the Premier League and across Europe was packed with highlights and big moments. The day kicked off with Manchester City losing 2-0 to Tottenham Hotspur at the Etihad Stadium on the back of goals by Brennan Johnson and João Palhinha. Thomas Frank's squad stymied Erling Haaland and the rest of a potent City attack that scored four goals in the opening weekend. The result made it two straight clean sheets to start the year for Spurs; could this be a season to remember for the reigning UEFA Europa League champions?
Later, Arsenal announced their signing of midfielder Eberechi Eze before demolishing Leeds United 5-0 at the Emirates Stadium. Viktor Gyökeres notched his first two goals as a Gunner, while Jurriën Timber scored a brace for the first multigoal game of his career and 15-year-old Max Dowman made his highly anticipated Premier League debut. Bukayo Saka also tallied with a sublime strike before being substituted off due to injury in the 53rd minute. With a trip to Anfield for a heavyweight clash against Liverpool up next, manager Mikel Arteta will be crossing his fingers that Saka and Martin Odegaard, who also suffered an injury, can be passed fit.
