The Premier League was at its brilliant best on the weekend even though only five matches were played.On Saturday, West Ham produced a stunning comeback against Huddersfield in a seven-goal thriller at the London Stadium.Leicester secured a last-gasp victory against Burnley to put further pressure on Sean Dyche’s side – who now hover dangerously above the relegation zone.While spoils were shared on the south coast between Bournemouth and Newcastle in a dramatic encounter at the Vitality.
6Miguel Almiron is the real deal
A lot of eyebrows were raised when Newcastle signed the Paraguayan playmaker for a club-record 20million in January.But he has been brilliant for the Magpies and that was once again the case against Bournemouth.For Newcastle’s first goal, Almiron ran 60 yards all on his own to earn his side a free-kick – which Salomon Rondon expertly converted.He has created an average of 3.25 chances per game since joining the club – no-one in the division has created more since his arrival.
6Marko Arnautovic looks disinterested
In the pick of the weekend’s action, the Hammers produced a remarkable comeback to beat bottom side Huddersfield Town at the London Stadium.However, there was one player in the match who looked disinterested; Marko Arnautovic.Apart from producing a few fancy flicks here and there, the Austrian was not at his best and his mind seemed elsewhere.The forward was the subject of rumoured interest from the Chinese Super League, but committed his future to the east Londoners soon after.
6Brendan Rodgers is getting the best out of the Foxes
Leicester struck late against Burnley to pile further pressure on Sean Dyche’s side – who now sit precariously in 17th position and two points adrift of safety.But what is now clear is that Rodgers is getting the best out of the Foxes.His side put in a spirited display with ten-men on the pitch for all but four minutes of the match.
6Liverpool showing title fight
Jurgen Klopp’s side were far from convincing against Fulham but they showed their title credentials by grinding out the victory at Craven Cottage to return to the summit of the division.However, one major cause for concern for Reds fans is the form of their talisman Mohamed Salah.The Egypt international drew a blank for the fifth consecutive Premier League game in a row and many Liverpool fans took to social media to call for the forward to be dropped in their next match.
6Maurizio Sarri is on borrowed time
The Chelsea boss is on the brink again after another damning loss at Everton.The Blues had lots of possession in the match but once again they simply did not create enough chances.Furthermore, the Italian’s reluctance to start Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Callum Hudson-Odoi, coupled with his clear lack of a plan B, will anger the Chelsea board more and more with every display.
