MANCHESTER, England -- Pep Guardiola is already making history at Manchester City.By beating Bournemouth 4-0 in the English Premier League on Saturday, City opened a season with eight straight wins for the first time in the clubs 136-year existence. Five of those have come in the league and the other three in the Champions League.City is averaging more than three goals a game under Guardiola, who has turned the team into an irresistible attacking unit.And surely title favorites.It was a stroll against Bournemouth at Etihad Stadium, with Kevin De Bruyne and Kelechi Iheanacho scoring in the first half before Raheem Sterling and Ilkay Gundogan added goals in the second. There were audible gasps from City fans relishing the silky passing and buildup play of whats shaping to be the most entertaining team in the clubs history.Theres also intelligence behind the excellence. Iheanacho said City noticed in its research for the game that Bournemouths players jump in the wall at free kicks on the edge of the area. So when De Bruyne got his first chance, he rolled his effort underneath the line of jumping visiting players and into the net.That got City rolling in the 15th minute -- and De Bruyne played a part in the other three goals, too. The Belgium midfielder split Bournemouths defense with through-balls in the buildup to the goals of Iheanacho and Sterling, before saving his best pass until last.The timing and weight of his angled pass to the onrushing Gundogan was perfect, and the Germany midfielder marked his Premier League debut by slotting his finish into the corner.Guardiola said De Bruyne was one of the best players he has managed, adding: (Lionel) Messi is on a table on his own. Kevin is there with the rest.City was one of three teams to score four goals as Arsenal and West Bromwich Albion also enjoyed big wins on a high-scoring day of 22 goals in five games in the league.Heres a look at the other games:---HULL 1, ARSENAL 4Its been a good week for Arsenal forward Alexis Sanchez.The Chile international scored a goal in each half to inspire Arsenals third straight league win, four days after grabbing a late equalizer in a 1-1 draw against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League.Having a penalty saved blotted Sanchezs performance against Hull -- and manager Arsene Wenger was left wondering why Sanchez took the kick ahead of the usual penalty-taker Santi Cazorla. Arsenal has had four penalties this season, scoring two and missing two.Theo Walcott and Granit Xhaka scored Arsenals other goals, with Robert Snodgrass replying for Hull with a penalty that made it 2-1 in the 79th. Hull played more than half the game with 10 men after Jake Livermore was sent off for two bookings, the second for a handball in the area that earned Arsenal a penalty.LEICESTER 3, BURNLEY 0It was some Premier League debut for Islam Slimani.The Algeria striker scored twice as Leicester eased past Burnley with a second straight 3-0 win, having beaten Club Brugge by that score in the Champions League on Wednesday.Slimani is Leicesters record signing after joining from Sporting Lisbon in August for $33.5 million, and looks to have established himself as the first-choice partner for Jamie Vardy.Ben Mees own goal rounded off a second league win of the season for the champions.EVERTON 3, MIDDLESBROUGH 1Everton is the other unbeaten team along with City, and earned a fourth straight win after coming from behind at Goodison Park, lifting the team in second place.Gareth Barry scored on his 600th top-flight appearance to spark Evertons comeback after goalkeeper Maarten Stekelenburgs own goal put Middlesbrough ahead. Seamus Coleman and Romelu Lukaku also scored for Everton.WEST BROMWICH ALBION 4, WEST HAM 2West Ham manager Slaven Bilic said he felt embarrassed during this third straight loss -- and second straight 4-2 defeat -- for his team.West Brom was 3-0 ahead at halftime after goals by Nacer Chadli, Salomon Rondon and James McClean. Chadli added another before Michail Antonio, with his fifth of the season, and Manuel Lanzini pulled goals back for West Ham.West Ham has lost four of its five games. Pedro Jersey . Nigeria beat surprise package Ethiopia 2-0 in the second leg of their playoff for a comfortable 4-1 aggregate victory.

Thibaut Courtois Jersey . Hazard cut in from the left and scored with a swerving right-footed shot for ninth goal of the season, which proved to be enough for the victory despite Chelseas forwards again lacking a cutting edge up front. http://www.chelseafcproshop.com/Kids-Davide-Zappacosta-Jersey/ . Ryan Garbutt had a goal and two assists as Dallas snapped a six-game losing streak with a 5-2 victory over the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday night. David Luiz Jersey . -- On the field, it was business as usual for Jameis Winston and No. Emerson Jersey . That left plenty of energy for pitching books and swatting away free agency questions. Anthony had 24 points and nine rebounds, and the Knicks avenged an embarrassing home loss with a rout of their own, beating the Boston Celtics 114-88 on Wednesday night for their third straight victory. NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Vanderbilt coach Derek Mason has no doubt who should be the Southeastern Conferences defensive player of the year.Yes, hes a little biased. Then again, Mason is watching junior linebacker Zach Cunningham turn in highlight-reel plays each week. Cunninghams latest performance included perfectly timing a leap over the center to block a field goal and give Vanderbilt one final chance before losing 23-16 at then-No. 11 Auburn last week.Mason said Tuesday hes never seen such a play, which had Auburn Tigers hopelessly looking for a flag because Cunningham must have had to jump offside to slam the football straight down as if spiking it off the block. Maybe a lesser player would have needed an early jump, but Cunningham didnt.Mason said he never parades players around lobbying for honors but what Cunningham has done for the Commodores and in big games sets him apart.If you can find a better defensive player in the SEC or in college football, show him to me, Mason said.The 6-foot-4, 240-pound junior leads the SEC with 94 tackles and is second with 13 + tackles for loss, just one behind Tennessees Derek Barnett. Cunningham was named the SEC defensive player of the week after a career-high 19 tackles Oct. 15 in an upset at Georgia, including a fourth-and-1 stop that clinched the Commodores victory.Cunninghams play features such impressive exploits that his teammates love watching him on game tape. Mason said Cunninghams intelligence reminds him of a previous player he helped coach while at Stanford, whos now in the NFL with Seattle.Richard Sherman was one of the smartest players Ive ever coached, Mason said. I think Zach falls into that realm of guys who can take it from the class to the grass and put it in game situations and be big.dddddddddddd.Cunningham, who in high school blocked a punt, found the detail he needed for his latest big play from film study the day before the game. During the game, he saw Auburn confirm what he thought and double-checked with position coach Chris Marve to make sure he could jump over the center as long as he didnt touch anyone.When Daniel Carlson went out for a field goal in the final minutes, Cunningham timed his leap perfectly . The linebacker has seen the replay more than a few times and already has a favorite.I saw one video someone had me doing like (Super) Mario things, Cunningham said with a laugh. That was pretty funny.Cunningham has helped Vanderbilt rebound from losing two of its first three games. The Commodores (4-5, 1-4) visit Missouri (2-7, 0-5) on Saturday looking for their most wins since 2013 with bowl hopes still alive with three games remaining. Vanderbilt wraps up the season hosting Mississippi and then Tennessee.The linebacker is showing up on NFL mock drafts as a potential first-round pick, but he said hes not currently thinking of his future. Adding a few more big plays to his resume is on his agenda for now.Im definitely looking forward to what I can do to help my team help us win, Cunningham said. Anything that Im able to do to help us achieve that thats what Im looking forward to do.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org Cheap Jerseys China NFL Jerseys China NFL Jerseys Wholesale Discount Basketball Jerseys Cheap NHL Jerseys Authentic Cheap Baseball Jerseys Free Shipping Cheapest College Jerseys Sale Cheap Football Jerseys China Nike NFL Jerseys Canada Wholesale NHL Jerseys From China MLB Jerseys Outlet Canada Wholesale NBA Jerseys Canada Store Cheap Soccer Jerseys China Cheap Authentic Jerseys Canada ' ' '
