Premier League Team of the Week: Paul Pogba and Sergio Aguero feature

Rejuvenated Diego Costa provided the second goal as he clinched on to Cesc Fabregas’s pass and slid the ball under Heurelho Gomes with three minutes left.

Meanwhile, Manchester City joined Manchester United on maximum points and climbed to first in the Premier League with a convincing 4-1 win at Stoke. The chastened trio has spent a combined $500 million in the offseason to avoid a repeat and early results suggest it is unlikely to happen. Both teams were looking to bag three points, but could not find a breakthrough in an intensely fought game, eventually settling for a point each. Palace have now lost their opening two games and are yet to get on the points table. He looked a shadow of himself last season, but if Chelsea are to mount a sustained title challenge in 2016-17, new manager Antonio Conte will hope the troublesome Spain worldwide continues to play on the edge.

There were more upsets this week as Burnley claimed a 2-0 win over Liverpool and Hull beat Swansea at the Liberty Stadium by the same scoreline.

And Burnley impressively earned their first points of the season by defeating Liverpool2-0. At Stoke, two goals each from Sergio Aguero and Nolito brought City’s goals total to 11 in three games. That trio is likely to be competing for the Golden Boot come the end of the season. At Watford on Saturday, he was booked for dissent – as he had been against West Ham – before escaping punishment for an apparent dive on the edge of the hosts’ box.

Coming off a win over AFC Bournemouth in their opening fixture, Manchester United’s new squad, managed by Jose Mourinho, looks like a truly scary attacking side.

There’s plenty of change at City this season but one constant remains – Aguero as a regular supply of goals.

And finally we have Cristhian Stuani stunning long-range effort for Middlesbrough in their 2-1 win at Sunderland on Super Sunday.

The Argentine then doubled his tally after 36 minutes, meeting a sumptuous Kevin De Bruyne free kick to send a fine header into the far corner of the goal.
