Wirtz is such a problem. Is he better as a 10 than Szoboszlai? No. Is Szoboszlai better as a six than Gravenberch? No. Drop Wirtz, put Gravenberch in and push Szoboszlai forward. The difference would be incredible.

Liverpool 'have more gears to go'published at 14:58 BST
HT: Bournemouth 0-0 Liverpool
Rob Green
Former Premier League goalkeeper on BBC Radio 5 Live at Vitality StadiumThat one save from Alisson was the stand-out moment of the game so far.
You feel like Liverpool are saying 'OK we've been slow and pedestrian in possession but we're not behind. How much have you got left Bournemouth after your exertions in the week? We've had five days off and not all of us played on Tuesday night.' You feel they have a lot more gears to go.
Bournemouth - have they got the same in the tank?

I'm expecting Haaland to break the curse and score today... The only team he hasn't scored against.
Danny, Yorkshire
Well if that first half is anything to go by, Danny, the curse rumbles on. Erling Haaland missing a simple tap in just before the break.

HT: Man City 3-2 Sunderland
Charlie Adam
Former Scotland midfielder on BBC Radio 5 LiveIt's been a good first half, both sides causing issues for each other. The response from Sunderland has been brilliant, they lost it just towards the end of the half. End to end stuff.

HT: Man City 3-2 Sunderland
Gary Bennett
Ex-Sunderland defender on BBC Radio NewcastleFantastic. Great advert for the Premier League. If you’re a neutral, what a game. Two good teams going at it.
Credit to Sunderland but they’ll be annoyed by the three goals they’ve let in.
HALF-TIMEpublished at 14:52 BST
Man City 3-2 Sunderland
What a half. FIVE goals. Manchester City ahead three times and twice pegged back.
The hosts have the lead and are moving three points clear at the top of the Premier League...For now.

Man City 3-2 Sunderland
Oooooh. Brian Brobbey's effort takes a huge deflection that could have dropped anywhere and Gianluigi Donnarumma tips it over the bar. I think it pinged off the crossbar too.

Man City fan here. Brobbey been outstanding. Held up everything for Sunderland - causing us real problems.

Man City 3-2 Sunderland
Manchester City have got all the momentum as we approach half time.
They would certainly like another one before the break to give themselves that extra cushion.

Man City 3-2 Sunderland
Somewhat of a collectors item, that one.
You would bet your house on Erling Haaland scoring there.
'Haaland looked off balance'published at 14:48 BST
Man City 3-2 Sunderland
Charlie Adam
Former Scotland midfielder on BBC Radio 5 LiveLovely play from Ndiaye, he could have shot himself but he passes it to Haaland who looks off balance and sends it just past the post.
HALF-TIMEpublished at 14:48 BST
Leeds 0-0 Crystal Palace
And the whistle also blows on a goalless first half at Elland Road.
Leeds have been the more positive side overall, but produced only one attempt on target - with that not arriving until the 42nd minute.

Man City 3-2 Sunderland
Shamoon Hafez
Football reporter at Etihad StadiumSunderland are the only Premier League side Erling Haaland has failed to score against...and that continues.
He somehow puts it wide after the ball was put on a plate for him by Iliman Ndiaye.
The Senegal international cannot believe it and Rayan Cherki in back play is sprawled out of the turf, not being able to comprehend what he has just witnessed.
Image source, Getty ImagesCLOSE!published at 14:47 BST
Man City 3-2 Sunderland
Oh wow. That is a shocker of a miss from the least likely of players...Erling Haaland.
Manchester City break and it looks certain they will score a fourth as the Norwegian picks up the ball in a space and, with the goal at his mercy, places wide.
Wow.
HALF-TIMEpublished at 14:46 BST
Bournemouth 0-0 Liverpool
Nothing to separate Bournemouth and Liverpool after a first-half which was fairly low in quality.

Man City 3-2 Sunderland
Sunderland thought Marc Guehi had touched the ball with his hand as he was going down but VAR has a look and the goal stands.
Semenyo finds his formpublished at 14:46 BST
Man City 3-2 Sunderland
Shamoon Hafez
Football reporter at Etihad StadiumAntoine Semenyo's thumping finish is his first goal of the season.
Coupled with the assist for Rayan Cherki's strike, the Ghanaian has finally found his form after a tricky start to the campaign.
'Semenyo whacks it in'published at 14:46 BST
Man City 3-2 Sunderland
Charlie Adam
Former Scotland midfielder on BBC Radio 5 LiveThat's something different there. Good play from Cherki, cuts it onto his back foot, Guehi is sliding in and Semeyno is there.
Whacks it as hard as he can and flies in past Roefs.

Bournemouth 0-0 Liverpool
Antonio Silva cuts out Ronald Araujo's cross and Liverpool will have their first corner in the final moments of the first half.
They can't make anything of it, however.
