The return of the Premier League over the weekend saw a number of summer signings finally make their competitive debuts for their new sides – with varying degrees of success.
It was a dream afternoon for Manchester United’s three arrivals, with Harry Maguire, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Daniel James all excelling in the 4-0 victory over Chelsea.
There were also impressive performances from Tottenham’s Tanguy Ndombele and Brighton’s Neal Maupay – who both got on the scoresheet for their new clubs.
But other new signings struggled, particularly at St James’ Park – where Newcastle lost a narrow game to Arsenal – and at Turf Moor, where a subdued Southampton lost heavily to Sean Dyche’s Burnley.
After an entertaining opening weekend, we have rated every summer signing’s debut out of ten. Who impressed and who struggled?
