Sunday saw Leeds lose out to Manchester United with a 2-4 loss which eventually helped United to climb up the table with a cut of six points. Chelsea grabbed the late victory over Crystal Palace giving them three points to lead. But Lukaku’s record-breaking least touches (7) for a football player have been in circulation ever since the Brazilian played for 90 mins straight against Palace. Tuchel is still in good hopes to see more of the striker as he is yet to adapt to the game.
Wolves beat Leicester City in an adventurous run with a daisy-cutter by Podence, who was voted the man of the match. Pedro Neto also made a comeback after his ten months-long injury break. Arsenal got hold of Brentford in their home ground where Saka and Emil Smith Rowe put up terrific performances to cut the gap.
