Aymeric Laporte's header rescued Manchester City a draw against newly promoted Wolves as the visitors' 100% winning start to their Premier League title defence came to an end at Molineux.
Arsenal head coach Unai Emery says his side "need to improve" in transition after the unconvincing Gunners recorded their first win under the Spaniard with victory over West Ham at Emirates Stadium.
Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe praised the "mental strength" of his team as they recovered from two goals behind to draw against Everton and move into the Premier League's top four.
Huddersfield Town captain Jonathan Hogg's red card against Cardiff was a "game-changer", said the Terriers' manager David Wagner.
Southampton manager Mark Hughes described Pierre-Emile Højbjerg's dismissal as "soft" as his 10 men were punished by a Harry Maguire stoppage-time winner for Leicester.
Manager Jürgen Klopp said he still has "a lot of work to do" after Liverpool's hard-fought 1-0 victory over Brighton sent them top of the Premier League.
Watford beat Crystal Palace at Vicarage Road to maintain their perfect start to the season and move behind Liverpool on goal difference at the top of the table.
Tottenham increased the pressure on Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho with a convincing 3-0 win in the Premier League at Old Trafford.
