Man City lose at Bournemouth | Enzo Maresca exclusive interview | Is Cole Palmer the best in the league?

Sunday Supplement

Vicky Gomersall is joined by the The Mirror's Darren Lewis and Chief Football Writer of The Independent Miguel Delaney.

We start by looking at Ruben Amorim’s appointment at Manchester United.  Comparisons with Erik Ten Hag, Amorim’s charismatic media presence and the great work done at Sporting Lisbon.

Next to the Premier League title race; after back-to-back losses in all competitions, have Manchester City’s injury list caught up with them?  Are Arsenal now too far behind after their defeat away at Newcastle?  And after beating Brighton to move to top of the league, Miguel thinks Liverpool are looking almost complete but considers a possible drop-off later in the season.

Elsewhere, we consider the scrutiny on Julen Lopetegui as West Ham lose to Nottingham Forest.  And Juliette Ferrington sits down with Ruud van Nistelrooy, who makes his desire to stay at Manchester United clear.  

Also, is Cole Palmer the best player in the Premier League at the moment?  Darren talks of Palmer’s impressive vision and ball-striking ability but would still choose Erling Haaland over Palmer.  

Finally, Natalie Gedra interviews Enzo Maresca, who talks of honesty with his players and learning player management from Marcello Lippi and Carlo Ancelotti.
