You should love McAuley not Costa, it was good shot but it's never a goal with a decent keeper.

Goalkeeper cannot leave the goal in situation like that, it doesn't significantly increase his chance of stopping the shot, while giving the attacker chance to round him or catch him wrong footed, on top of that he rushed out at weird angle that left more goal open than if he stayed there.

One thing that's somewhat surprising is that Mkhitaryan is really really fast, like faster than most premier league players who are considered fast. He's faster with the ball than Danny Rose without which I didn't expect. Hope he's okay, the injury didn't look bad in replays.

With City, Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal going strong how are Spurs and Utd ever going to challenge for a top4 spot this season?

They aren't. Man Utd might sneak fourth because Liverpool's back line isn't exactly airtight, but Spurs will finish sixth. When your marquee summer signing is Moussa Sissoko, it's to be expected.

what happened with monaco? last season they scored 57 goals in 38 matches, before that, 51 goals in 38. Now they have 53 in 17. Both previous seasons they got third (currently in second place), so it's not like they just became a much better team (which happens), they just seem to have well, significantly changed style of play over just one season.

They are rather young (most players are below 24) so 1 year makes a difference. They have two new sidebacks who are better going forward and stopped playing Moutinho who was slowing their play significantly. Falcao is back to good form too.

Chelsea and Arsenal are definitely guaranteeing themselves top 4.

I used to think City was a sure thing but given how they have been for the past couple of matches, chances of them imploding aren't that remote. They're matching up against Arsenal and Liverpool in the next three rounds, so those 3 and 6 points gaps against Spurs and United look more fragile than ever.

Liverpool delivers some of the most worth watching football this season, though I have a feeling that their defense will ultimately fail them when it matters, which will cost them some dear points.

About time! Would have been much easier if Pogba's free kick went in.

yea I can see united overtaking either city or liverpool, their performances have been better than their point harvest and that's likely to even out a bit over the season.

Liverpool's collapse vs Bournemouth is just.. I love watching their games because stuff like that actually happens (both ways), but this season, that's not worthy of a title contender. Chelsea is looking incredibly strong - past 9 games are 9 wins, 2 goals conceded (one vs tottenham, one vs man city).

United do indeed knock Spurs out of the race, the two teams destined to float together above the rest of the mid table. Liverpool dropping 5 points in 2 weeks is painful. Chelsea are looking like they could to be hard to catch.

Every home side scored at least 3 goals in the Premier League on Saturday.
