English Premier League Week 3

Up until this point, both Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur had been undefeated with 6 wins/4wins and 2 draws respectively. However the match between the two clubs at White Hart Lane (Tottenham Home) meant one club's victory defeated would end. After the 90 minutes, Tottenham came away with a 2-0 victory. This is a massive boost for the club alongside one of their midfielder's Son Heung-min being nominated for EA Sports Player of the Month (September).

Liverpool remain in the fourth spot with a 2-1 win over Swansea on Saturday with Manager Jurgen Klopp stating "We are really happy in this moment" - Sky Sports. Just above in 3rd place, Arsenal's 1-0 victory against Burnley justified their top 4 position at the end of week 7. A late goal from Koscielny in the 93rd minute added to the North London clubs 4 win streak. 

After such a previously successful season, Leicester City look to be in dismal form. After losing 4-1 to Manchester United last week, a nil all draw against Southampton on Monday. Manager Claudio Ranieri stated to Sky Sports "I thought Southampton deserved to win, they had more chances and better control today". Their upcoming match against Chelsea next week shall be a great challenge.
