Covid 19 is still in town
The match between Aston Villa and Newcastle couldn't hold because half the Newcastle team were tested positive for Corona. The decision led the Football Association to cancel the match which was supposed to hold on Friday.

At the moment, no official date has been announced for a replay of the match and the reschedule looks unlikely. This further proves that the Coronavirus is still at large and we should do well by keeping ourselves safe out there.

Fans Return to the stadium

The glorious sight of playing in front of your fans was unleashed this week. The atmosphere was different from the normal one and the fans being able to cheer and celebrate their fans right from the stadium's seats was amazing.

Although more than 75 % of the stadiums were closed, it was still nice to see people watching the footballers play and also chanting in support of their team.

Tottenham destroyed Arsenal once more

Spurs head coach has always prided himself on being a coach who could beat an Arsenal team and performance on Sunday further proved that. Having lost just once to Arsenal, he made sure he started that way.

Coach Arteta, on the other hand, has been facing lots of issues on the arsenal hot seat and more headaches were added after Sunday's match. The 2 nil scoreline will give him more headache as he continued the search for a winning formula at Arsenal.

Two spurs players continue to make headway in the person of Son and Harry Kane. They combined twice to score the two goals of the match. Their telepathic combination has left most teams for dead as they can't provide a solution to stop them.

Giroud stars again for Chelsea

After his Champions League exploits during last week's midweek game, lots of fans wanted him to start the next game and Coach Lampard gave him the nod. He started against Leeds United on Saturday played his part in Chelsea's victory.

Former Chelsea graduate Bamford opened the scoring for leads before Giroud equalized from a Reccee James low cross. The goal gave Chelsea the needed ginger to win the game as the game ended 3-1 in their favor.

This was Lampard's first meeting against Coach Marcelo Bielsa and he triumphs at the first attempt. Chelsea further had injuries worries in the match as Hakim Ziyech was substituted In the first one due to a muscular problem.

Champions Liverpool keeps proving doubters wrong

With a heavy four-nil handed to wolves on Sunday, one might think that Liverpool is back to their full strength. Well sorry to disappoint, they still have over four key men out injured yet they keep grinding out results.

The match saw Salah produce a goàl and an assist and also saw mane produce another silent performance. TAA played his first match since his return from injury by replacing Neco Williams in the 68 minutes. The youngster has been a revelation.

Liverpool still has to cope with injuries to Allison, Virgil van Dijk, even TAA before the match against the wolves team. For now, Liverpool continues to match on and they are second on the league table. Leveled on points with Tottenham but scored less to Spurs.
