Summary
Here’s Jimbo, in the company of Tom Williams, Amitai Winehouse and Sasha Goryunov after a big weekend at both ends of the Premier League table.
Man City suffer their first defeat of the season as Liverpool and Mo Salah get their mojo back. Which allows Arsenal to go 4 points clear at the top of the table, with some belated assistance from VAR at Elland Road.
Chelsea make it 5 wins in a row and 4 clean sheets in a row as the resurrection of Kepa under Graham Potter continues.
We revisit the most famous of Darren Bent’s 106 Premier League goals.
Plus Nuno, Solly March, the Forest social media team and the Ivan Toney penalty.
Produced by Charlie Jones.
