Summary

Dave Jones is joined by Jamie Redknapp and Daniel Sturridge, who analyse Arsenal’s 1-0 win at Everton, which sees the Gunners return to the top of the Premier League after Manchester City’s win against West Ham earlier on Saturday. The victory means Arsenal will be top at Christmas, and goalscorer Viktor Gyokeres and player of the match Bukayo Saka give their reaction after the vital win.

Leeds United also secured a huge 4-1 win against Crystal Palace at Elland Road, with Dominic Calvert-Lewin continuing his fine form by scoring a brace against the Eagles, and he gives his postmatch thoughts with Harriet Prior.

We also hear the views of Mikel Arteta, David Moyes, Daniel Farke, and Oliver Glasner.
