Summary
It was a difficult few days for VAR, as the PGMOL admitted two mistakes in Arsenal's draw against Brentford and Brighton's stalemate at Crystal Palace. David Richardson looks at the Gunners' 1-1 draw against the Bees, which has opened up the title race following Manchester City's Super Sunday victory over Aston Villa. Meanwhile, Manchester United may be in the title fold following their win at Leeds.
Elsewhere, Joe Shread analyses Brighton's 1-1 draw at Palace, while Lewis Jones and Nick Wright run the line through another stalemate of the same scoreline between West Ham and Chelsea.
Paul Gilmour watched Nathan Jones' last game as Southampton manager - a 2-1 home loss to Wolves, while Sam Blitz goes through Fulham's win over Nottingham Forest at Craven Cottage.
We also have analysis from Leicester's 4-1 victory over a sorry Tottenham side, with Newcastle drawing 1-1 at Bournemouth.
And that's your Premier League Weekend Wrap!
