Summary
Gregor Robertson is joined by Alyson Rudd, James Gheerbrant and Paul Joyce to look back on an action packed weekend including Liverpool dismantling a below par Arsenal, Steve Bruce's Newcastle stunning Spurs and David Silva shining brighter than ever on the south coast.
They also cast their eye over yet more VAR controversy, and ask whether Norwich might be thinking bigger than just survival despite their loss to Chelsea.
All that plus a special mention to Leicester's Harvey Barnes after his wonder strike gave Leicester all three points at Sheffield United.
