Haaland gets revenge & Cherki shines to turn title race City's way

A magical dribble from Rayan Cherki gave City the lead in the make-or-break showdown in Manchester, only for a terrible touch by Gianluigi Donnarumma to hand Kai Havertz an equaliser.

Palmer & Garnacho painfully ineffective in ANOTHER loss
Chelsea are now at very real risk of failing to qualify for next season's Champions League after slumping to a 1-0 defeat at home to top-five rivals Manchester United on Saturday night. The Blues were buoyed by the return of Enzo Fernandez after his club-imposed suspension but even though the Argentine showed what Liam Rosenior's side had been missing, they once again failed to score in what was a fourth consecutive Premier League loss.

Opinion Arsenal
Arsenal should feel no shame about shutting up shop at City
It's being billed as the biggest Premier League clash in years. On Sunday, Arsenal finally travel to the Etihad Stadium to take on Manchester City in what has been marked in the calendar as potential title-decider for months. But with the two sides separated by just six points at the top of the table, and City holding a crucial game in hand, Mikel Arteta's out-of-sorts Gunners shouldn't feel like they need to live up to the much-hyped occasion.

Opinion Manchester City
City maverick Cherki is perfect antidote to Arteta-ball
The Premier League has never been more popular and yet this season there has been a noticeable rise in people, from everyday fans to respected pundits to even elite coaches, insisting they are losing interest. When Arne Slot said the English top flight was "not a joy to watch" many agreed with the Liverpool manager and the data backed up his argument.

Opinion Liverpool
Isak & Wirtz must salvage Ekitike-less Liverpool's grand plan
Arne Slot declared that the "future was bright" for Liverpool after Tuesday's Champions League elimination but there was no lifting the doom and gloom around Anfield. The hosts hadn't just lost yet another game to Paris Saint-Germain - they'd also lost Hugo Ekitike to injury. Indeed, what little hope Liverpool had of overturning a 2-0 first-leg deficit effectively ended the moment their only fit and in-form forward hit the deck with nobody near him.
