Manchester City does not want to give rise to doubts in the Premier League and that is why they have won all the matches they have played. Their victim on Matchday 5 was West Ham, one of the strongest teams in the English league at the beginning of the season.
However, if City are not slacking off, neither are their runners-up. Tottenham pulled off an epic comeback at home to beat Sheffield United, with Brazilian striker Richarlison returning to the scoresheet.
Liverpool also managed to turn the scoreline around and beat Wolverhampton at home, thanks to Mohamed Salah, who contributed with two assists in the match. Manchester United, meanwhile, lost 3-1 at home to Roberto De Zerbi’s always difficult Brighton.
Lastly, Arsenal confirmed that the top teams are in a great moment by beating Everton 1-0 at Goodison Park.

Although they won 3-1, Liverpool started the match at Molineux losing after 7 minutes, when Pedro Neto crossed for Hwang Hee-Chan, who put the ball through the net and the Red’s goalkeeper Alisson. In the second period, Mohamed Salah’s show began. First, he crossed a ball across the area for Cody Gakpo to make it 1-1 (55′).
Then, in the 85th minute, the Egyptian put a pass between several legs for Andy Robertson to make it 2-1. Hugo Bueno then finished the scoring with an own goal after a shot from Harvey Elliot (90+1′).
Jürgen Klopp’s side is third with 13 points, with the same goal difference as Tottenham, but with a goal in favor less.

Manchester City beat West Ham 3-1, but started the second half 1-0 down, due to a header by midfielder James Ward-Prowse in the 35th minute. The Hammers woke up the Citizen beast, which was a steamroller in the second half.
At 46′, Jeremy Doku headed from the left towards the center, got into the area, and placed the ball at the goalkeeper’s far post. In the 76th minute, Bernardo Silva took advantage of a misjudged header by Nayef Aguerd to make it 2-1 with a subtle shot, and the last came from Erling Haaland, who beat goalkeeper Alphonse Areola with a cross-shot in the 86th minute.
City is the all-powerful leader of the Premier League with 15 points, 14 goals scored and only three conceded.

At Old Trafford, Manchester United suffered another blow, this time losing 1-3 to Brighton, who had been on top of the scoreboard since the 20th minute when Danny Welbeck appeared in the heart of the box to send Simon Adingra’s cross into the net.
In the 52nd minute, Pascal Gross appeared to leave Lisandro Martinez stranded with a feint and shot to the right post of goalkeeper André Onana. In the 70th minute, Joao Pedro made his presence felt with a shot that the goalkeeper couldn’t miss, rendering Hannibal Mejbri’s 73rd-minute goal useless.
The Seagulls reached 12 points, while the Red Devils remained in 13th place with only 6 points and 10 goals conceded.
