Arsenal deliver a defensive masterclass to beat Liverpool at Anfield for the first time in 14 years, in yet another 1-0 victory. Where does this Arsenal defence rank among the greats of the Premier League era?
After a promising first half, it all goes wrong again for Michael Carrick and Manchester United at Stamford Bridge. United fans are calling for Lisandro Martinez never to play for the club again after his red card. Do they have a point, or is it a massive overreaction?
Gary, Alan and Micah also predict a Champions League spot for Brighton, but could they go one better and challenge for the title?
