English Premier League

The weekend of the 4th/5th of February in the Premier League.

Chelsea recorded an impressive win on Saturday afternoon by beating Arsenal 3-1 at Stamford Bridge. Eden Hazard was the star man with a wonderful solo goal. The win put Chelsea 12 points ahead of the chasing pack putting them in firm control of the title race. Liverpool were subject to a shock defeat to relegation battlers Hull City. Jürgen Klopp’s side are going through a dreadful run of form and have fallen out of the top 4 . Jermain Defoe bagged himself a brace as bottom side Sunderland picked up a much needed 3 points away to relegation rivals Crystal Palace. Everton and Bournemouth played out a 9 goal thriller at Goodison Park resulting in a 6-3 win for the home side. Romelu Lukaku scored 4 of the 6 in a Man Of The Match display for the toffees. Tottenham just about kept in touch with Chelsea thanks to a Harry Kane penalty against a spirited Middlesboro side.

Man United recorded a convincing 0-3 win over Leicester City. The win for United means the premier league champions are only 1 point from safety. Manchester City’s new Brazilian superstar Gabriel Jesus scored a 90th minute winner for the blues. A massive win for City in which Sergio Aguero was once again on the bench.

There were 36 goals scored in the premier league this weekend! Some of the talking points after the weekend, Can Chelsea be caught? Will Premier League Champions Leicester City avoid relegation? Does Sergio Aguero have a future at Manchester City?
