Arsenal beat Liverpool at Anfield for the first time in sixteen attempts. The Champions showed a familiar resilience, is their defence as good as they have ever had? For Liverpool they have only scored four home league goals all season, what isn't working going forward?
Is it time Brighton were in the conversation with Arsenal as title contenders. After winning at Man City - also for the first time in sixteen attempts - they are a side getting results and topping many data metrics which suggests being third is no fluke.
Michael Carrick remains enormous pressure at Man Utd but he is not the only manager under pressure; which of Le Bris at Sunderland, Carrick at Man Utd, Sage at Palace and Glasner at Forest will still be in post after the international break?
Lastly, is James Hill at bournemouth in line for an international call up?
Gregor Robertson is joined by Tony Cascarino, Alyson Rudd and Pete Rutzler
