Premier League: 10 things to look out for this weekend

Iheanacho looks to impress, what now for Mourinho’s shambolic defence and no change for Rafa at Man City

Despite not dropping a point or conceding a goal, Liverpool have yet to really hit their stride in the current campaign. West Ham took very little beating in their opener, while subsequent victories over Crystal Palace and Brighton were a mite laboured. An away trip to Leicester on Saturday lunchtime should provide another reasonably stiff test ahead of what is likely to be a more challenging trip to Tottenham Hotspur after the international break. Leicester clearly missed the searing pace of the suspended Jamie Vardy against Southampton and Kelechi Iheanacho struggled to impress in his role as replacement. The striker got off the mark for the season against Fleetwood Town in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday and with Vardy sitting out the last instalment of a three-match ban , he needs a big performance against the – thus far – impregnable two-man portcullis that is Virgil van Dijk and Joe Gomez, if he is to stake any sort of claim for keeping Vardy out upon his return.

Gareth Southgate worries England players are being underused by clubs

• Manager Southgate concerned by lack of game time for players
• Call-ups for Joe Gomez and Adam Lallana for next two matches

Gareth Southgate is deeply concerned English players are not getting enough opportunities in the Premier League and has called for a fresh “debate” to tackle a long-running problem after warning the country risks losing some of its brightest young talent unless there are more ways to break through at first-team level.

More than a game: not just gold on line for Son Heung-min in Asian Games final | John Duerden

The pressure building on South Korea’s captain reaches a crescendo on Saturday when he could win military exemption

Arguably the biggest game of football this weekend takes place in the unlikely location of West Java, where South Korea take on Japan in the final of the 2018 Asian Games. Rarely has a football tournament been so much about one player and onlookers around the world have found themselves fretting almost as much as those in Seoul about the fate of the Korean captain Son Heung-min.

It all ends, one way or another, on Saturday as the biggest rivals in Asia meet at Pakansari Stadium in Cibinong. The Samurai Blue would love to win but the Taeguk Warriors have to – only gold would mean military exemption for the 20 players in the Korean squad. That is the only reason Tottenham Hotspur let Son leave the early stages of the Premier League season to play in a far-flung, regional Under-23 tournament (he is one of three overage players allowed).

Nine-man Rangers were made to do it the hard way as they survived two red cards to claim a place in the Europa League group stages, and they were later joined by Old Firm rivals Celtic – the first time since 2009 two Scottish sides have made it to group stages of European competition.

Burnley’s Europa League dream ends with draw against Olympiakos

• Burnley 1-1 Olympiakos (Olympiakos win 4-2 on aggregate)
• Daniel Podence and Matej Vydra swap goals but Clarets are out

Sean Dyche blamed some questionable refereeing decisions for the 3-1 scoreline against Burnley in the first leg in Athens, apparently with a degree of justification. The story was completely different here. Even with a weakened team Burnley created enough chances to win the tie twice over, yet managed to miss them all until the substitute Matej Vydra marked his debut with a scrambled close-range effort five minutes from the end.

By then it was too late. Olympiakos had gone up the field after an evening of dogged, last-ditch defending and put the tie beyond reach with Daniel Podence’s cool finish. Vydra’s equaliser merely allowed the home side parity on the night. Burnley deserved that, though it would be hard to argue they merited a place in the Europa League proper after wasting so many opportunities.

Tottenham Hotspur have asked for special dispensation to play their Carabao Cup third-round tie against Watford at Stadium MK as their new stadium will not be ready for the fixture and Wembley, where the club have been playing their home games, is not available.

The club’s £850m stadium has been delayed until at least November following issues with the critical safety systems. The Carabao Cup fixture is set to take place in the week starting on 24 September.

The manager, whose team play Wales in a pivotal World Cup qualifier in Newport on Friday night, believes it is impossible to coach properly unless you understand the player as a person. “The first month after I took over, I messaged players maybe once or twice a week but now I speak every single day with every single player,” Neville said.

Wasps v Wigan, a young Marseille fan goes rogue and ping-pong wizardry

This week’s roundup also features kayaking over a waterfall, a one-second heavyweight bout and the perfect flip throw-in

1) The Premiership rugby union season kicks off this weekend. There were some brilliant tries last season. Here are eight of the best of them. There were some shuddering tackles too. Saracens are the team to beat in 2018-19, having been crowned champions for the fourth time after beating Exeter 27-10 with a sizzling display at Twickenham in June. Relive highlights here. Sarries won the Premiership Rugby Sevens final this summer too, a tournament that was arguably more fun when rugby league teams such as Wigan entered it. Here’s Shaun Edwards’s Wigan silencing Twickenham by humbling Lawrence Dallaglio’s Wasps in 1996.

2) A young Marseille fan is invited to take part in the ceremonial kick-off against Rennes, which involves kicking the ball once, but instead goes rogue and dribbles the length of the pitch, scores and celebrates with top-off wild abandon. And here’s an absolutely sensational strike from the Northern Premier League, where Pablo Mills has probably wrapped up Mickleover Sports FC’s goal-of-the-season award before the end of August.

Nottingham Forest’s Matty Cash and Gil Dias end Newcastle’s comeback

For two minutes Newcastle thought they had got away with it. They had trailed since the start to a header by their former striker Daryl Murphy but Salomón Rondón looked to have bailed them out with a stoppage-time equaliser. A penalty shootout loomed, or so it seemed.

It turned out Rafael Benítez’s team were still ramshackle enough to concede two more goals, first to Matty Cash and then from an almost playful chip by Gil Dias. Forest made merry against a Newcastle team bordering on ridiculous.

Football transfer rumours: Celtic's Moussa Dembélé set for Lyon exit?

Today’s tell-all was up late

Chelsea love a loan window like the Mill loves fluff. Thirty-eight players were rented out last season, 34 have gone this term, and there’s talk of shifting more before Friday’s 5pm loan deadline. Izzy Brown, Fankaty Dabo and Islam Feruz could all go; Tammy Abraham doesn’t want to go but might have to; and Ruben Loftus-Cheek really does want to go, but has been told he can’t. He’s been left “fuming” by it – but Chelsea reckon he should show some patience. January’s not far off.

Friday should be busy elsewhere, too, with regular transfer deadlines in Scotland and most of Europe. Expect more of this sort of thing on Thursday, then: Jean-Michel Aulas – Lyon president and Twitter provocateur – being coy about signing Celtic’s Moussa Dembélé: “He’s an option, though we have others”; Pedro Martins, Olympiakos manager, being coy about re-signing Yaya Touré: “I won’t refer to players that do not belong to our group yet”; and Steven Gerrard being skittish about Rangers’ £2m deal for Osijek winger Joe Grezda: “I just don’t want to say too much, until it’s over the line.” He’s also hoping to land Forest’s Joe Worrall on loan.

José Mourinho is a saint compared with Burnley’s Lord of provocation | Scott Murray

But for services to the field of unnecessarily inflammatory quotation, deliberately incendiary riffing and consequence‑disregarding button‑pressing, Mou is the spiritual love child of Mahatma Gandhi and bed-in era John Lennon when compared with Bob Lord.

Why would anyone be a Sunday league referee? The love of the game

Every Sunday footballers gather on the 82 pitches at Hackney Marshes. It would be total chaos but for the men in the middle

By MUNDIAL, part of the Guardian Sport Network

There are 23 games of football going on at Hackney Marshes this morning and around the same number will be kicking off this afternoon. There are big, wardrobe lads; there are wiry, ironing board lads; there are stocky, tumble dryer lads. There are all the languages, all the races, all the religions. Tracksuits on, boot bags in hand, they walk past the cafe, into the foyer and over to the fixtures table to find out what pitch they are on today.

They’re thinking about their performance last week, about who they have this morning, about how they’re going to make an impact in the first five minutes. Without them, there would be no football at all. No screamers, no crossfield passes, no last-ditch tackles. No free-kicks, no corners, no sendings off. Without the referees, there’d be chaos.

The striker proved American outfield players could cut it in Europe and helped blaze a trail for the likes of Christian Pulisic

After Clint Dempsey’s somewhat surprising retirement announcement on Wednesday morning, his place in the overall hierarchy of US Soccer history will be much debated.

Who was better, Dempsey or Landon Donovan, the man with whom he will be forever tied on the all-time US men’s goalscoring chart? How do you compare an outfield player with goalkeepers such as Kasey Keller, Brad Friedel and Tim Howard, each of whom also had successful club careers abroad?
