Erling Haaland scored a hat trick as Manchester City maintained its perfect Premier League start with a 5-1 thrashing of Fulham on Saturday, as Son Heung-min netted three times in Tottenham's 5-2 victory at Burnley.

But Chelsea's huge investment in the transfer market has yet to payoff as the Blues fell 1-0 at home against Nottingham Forest, while Newcastle has now lost three consecutive games after 18-year-old Evan Ferguson's hat trick gave Brighton an impressive 3-1 win at the Amex.

City is two points clear at the top of the table as the only side with four wins from four games, and was again able to earn victory without ever hitting top gear.
