Another day, Erling Braut Haaland scored another goal. The 22-year-old is now 11th in the Premier League, with Jack Grealish’s opener in a 3-0 win over Wolves 55 seconds into the game. Second place.
Any hopes of Wolves’ extraordinary comeback were dashed when Nathan Collins received a straight red card for an unforgivably high challenge on Grealish, with Phil Foden’s 69th-minute strike completing the title defense The work of a champion.
Pep’s side briefly returned to the top of the table with a 3-0 victory, but Arsenal then beat Brentford by the same score, meaning the champions head into the international break in second place – behind the north London club one cent.
At least Arsenal or third-placed Tottenham are set to drop points in Saturday’s lunchtime north London derby, which could open the door for Manchester City to clinch a 10th consecutive home win in all competitions. Take back their legitimate place in the standings.
Unsurprisingly, City is the top scorers at home in the Premier League this season – with 14 goals in just three such games and tied for the lowest with two goals conceded – and at least three goals at home accompanied their last seven top-flight victories.
As impressive as their recent recovery was, United scored two goals against Arsenal thanks to a hole in the Gunners’ backline while forcing an out-of-form Ronaldo to be replaced by an in-form Rashford does not bring optimism to the visiting team.
Manchester United are still on their feet under Ten Haag, who is preparing for a real test of mettle with Manchester City, who are almost always in the free-scoring form at the Etihad Stadium. We can only imagine the champions coming out on top—Sunday’s derby.
