Tottenham Hotspur vs Everton result and match review

Tottenham have agreed a season-long loan for Manchester City forward Omar Marmoush with an obligation to buy for £60m next summer, the second City player to join Spurs in a week after Savio's £75m move. The deal raises questions about City's front-line strategy and Spurs' financial planning.

Manchester City have sold Savinho to Tottenham for up to £85m, a £44m profit on the £30.8m they paid Girona, despite just two league goals in 53 appearances. The winger has reverted to his birth name Sávio, banking on his prolific Girona loan form as Spurs prepare him to replace Mikey Moore.

Thierno Barry's header sealed Everton's 2-0 opening-day win over Crystal Palace, offering the clearest sign yet that the £27m striker could shed a 14-game goalless run and become David Moyes' first-choice frontman. But Everton have been burned before by single-goal breakthroughs.

Tottenham's near-£400m summer rebuild was exposed as a mentality problem, not a money problem, as Roberto De Zerbi's side crashed 3-0 at Brentford with four debutants, including £100m man Sandro Tonali, all failing to make an impact.

BBC Sport's tactical breakdown of Roberto De Zerbi's rebuilt Tottenham looked promising until a 3-0 defeat at Brentford exposed the gap between pre-season patterns and Premier League reality, with De Zerbi himself admitting his side are 'not ready' and lacking fight.
