Welcome to the Hayters TV live blog! We’ll have updates throughout the day as Premier League managers speak at their press conferences ahead of the second round of fixtures.
“I think it’s probably very fitting that Eddie (Howe) comes with Newcastle. He is a big part of the history of the club.
“125 years is a lot of years, a lot of history behind. Probably in England you don’t see that as special but for me from outside 125 years is a lot and I feel lucky to be part of that now in this special moment.
“It is special to be part of such a special moment.”
Fulham boss Marco Silva says the club are very close to bring in Crystal Palace defender Joachim Andersen. “It’s very close. It’s difficult to be talking about it because it’s not official but it’s close. I think he’s a great signing and a player who is loved by this club.
“I’m hoping it will be official this afternoon. We will be delighted with the signing.”
Watch Ange Postecoglou’s full pre-match press conference ahead of the game with Everton.
Postecoglou: “He was one we identified really early on. Wilson was on of the players we highlighted. Once Dom [Solanke] was done there was one target and that was Wilson.
“He’s different to our other wingers. He’s had a good develop, from PSG to Troyes and then Premier League football before 19.
“Delighted to get him in.”
Postecoglou: “Biss is available, but we have options there. The whole idea of bulking up the squad was for these circumstances.
“He’s available for selection but the bridge building continues.”
Watch Pep Guardiola’s full pre-match press conference ahead of the game against Ipswich Town.
Ange Postecoglou confirms Dominic Solanke will miss Tottenham’s match against Everton.
He said: “He got a knock in the last game, he got through the match but it flared up and he’ll miss tomorrow.”
Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou
A big blow for Tottenham ahead of their game against Everton on Saturday with big money summer signing Dominic Solanke ruled out because of an ankle injury.
Strong stuff from Maresca who issues a warning to his Chelsea players: “If you think I’m going to give you a chance without working hard, forget about it.”
“If we have the chance to bring in a striker that can help us and make the difference, then we are going to try.”
Enzo Maresca says Joao Felix could be in line for his second debut against Wolves on Sunday after returning to the club. “In terms of physicality, I think he is ready because he was already playing games there [at Atletico Madrid]. He needs more time to understand the way we want to play but overall I think he can play.”
Pep Guardiola on the Chelsea winger: “He is a Chelsea player. I feel so attached with him because of the time we had together and I feel like that with all my players. But he is a Chelsea player. If you had asked me about Gundogan previously, I would have said he was a Barcelona player.”
“I don’t think so but I don’t know. The market might provide us something that is financially good for us but at the moment I do not know.”
“Savinho feels better. I don’t think he’s completely top but we will see today and tomorrow what we want to do with him.
“Rodri is getting better but he has not been with the group. Maybe he can take part in partial training today but I don’t think [he will be available]. We will see today.”
Guardiola: “If tomorrow he has to play, OK, he knows everything.”
Pep Guardiola is speaking to the media right now following the return of Ilkay Gundogan to the club. “He has not come here to retire, or remember the good memories, now it’s time to get your shoes on, and play your best!”
You can watch what Mikel Arteta had to say in full ahead of the game against Aston Villa here.
Arteta was less forthcoming when pushed for an update on the imminent signing of Spain midfielder Mikel Merino and the possible transfer of Eddie Nketiah.
He added: “I cannot talk about any player that’s not with us. There’s still time in the market. Both ways. For all the managers, for all the teams here. You can see it’s getting very busy.
“I don’t know [about] soon. The full focus is on the players that we have at the moment, the big match we have at Aston Villa and that’s all.
“I expect Eddie to train with us today. To be prepared for tomorrow. That’s it. Whatever happens will happen if it’s good for everybody.”
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has indicated he will sign a new contract next month – after the transfer window closes.
He said: “The focus has been on the transfer window. We had quite a lot of things to do and discuss. We are on it and we will take care of that in the right moment.”
Asked if that meant after the window closes, he smiled: ‘Yeah.’
