The Emirates Stadium was a sea of anxiety. Arsenal fans are acutely aware that a first Premier League title since 2004 is within their grasp and when it is so tantalising, it will be fraught. Especially when matches such as this become a grind. When the attacking patterns do not work. When the team look vulnerable.Arsenal could feel their nearest rivals, Manchester City and Aston Villa, on their backs. Both had won to cut their lead at the top to four points. Mikel Arteta’s team had drawn their previous two league matches 0-0 – against Liverpool and Nottingham Forest. They were desperate for something here and when Patrick Dorgu put Manchester United 2-1 up with a scorching drive early in the second half, they would have taken anything. They would end with nothing – apart from a thumping headache. Continue reading...

If this was a taste of what life on the road under Liam Rosenior might be like for Chelsea fans then anyone who doubted his appointment may want to think again. A stunning individual performance from Estêvão, who scored the first after a mistake from fellow teenager Jaydee Canvot before setting up João Pedro for the second, inspired his side to end a run of five Premier League games without an away victory at the first attempt as they piled on the misery for Crystal Palace, who also had Adam Wharton sent off.A controversial penalty from Enzo Fernández compounded a terrible afternoon for Canvot – the 19-year-old tasked with replacing captain Marc Guéhi after he was sold to Manchester City – as Oliver Glasner’s side stretched their winless run against Chelsea in the Premier League to 17 matches. It is now also 11 games without a victory in all competitions for last season’s FA Cup winners despite a late consolation from Chris Richards, with Palace nervously looking over their shoulder...

Nottingham Forest finished their rollercoaster week on the up, with three away points against Brentford restoring their five-point buffer from the relegation zone.Mouthwatering goals from Forest’s maligned strikers, first Igor Jesus with a blaster then a solo effort from Taiwo Awoniyi, put memories of fan displeasure after defeat in the Europa League behind Sean Dyche and his team and confirmed four league points in eight days after their Arsenal draw. Awoniyi’s goal in particular was a welcome milestone, his first since being placed in an induced coma after he collided with a post at the end of last season. Continue reading...

Some wins are a little bit lucky and others downright fluky or simply ground out, but this Aston Villa victory belonged to a different category.It was the sort of triumph that can be filed under “thoroughly deserved”. Indeed, much of Villa’s attacking play was so fluid, fluent and gloriously improvisational that, by comparison, Newcastle looked as if they were engaged in a footballing equivalent of painting by numbers.
