Manchester City maintained their perfect Premier League start under Enzo Maresca by beating Crystal Palace 4-1 at Selhurst Park. Rayan Cherki was the standout performer, scoring twice with skilful finishes, while Erling Haaland also scored two goals as City’s attacking quality proved decisive.

Palace competed early on, with Adam Wharton praised for his composure and passing and Yeremy Pino providing a free-kick that was recorded as a Gianluigi Donnarumma own goal. Cherki received the highest rating of 8, while Haaland, Ruben Dias, Elliot Anderson and Antoine Semenyo were rated 7; Haaland has now scored in all six of his Premier League appearances at Selhurst Park.
