    Arsenal have quickly reclaimed top spot in football's Premier League

    Arsenal have quickly reclaimed top spot in football's Premier League


    After Manchester City went top with a 3-nil over West Ham earlier this morning - the Gunners have reinstated their two point buffer with a 1-nil win away to Everton.

    Meanwhile - Tottenham manager Thomas Frank is questioning aspects of the refereeing after they finished with nine men in a 2-1 loss to Liverpool.

    Spurs had players sent off midway through the first half and then in second half added time as they pursued an equaliser.

    Frank has politely disagreed with both - but been more outspoken on the decision to not call a foul on Liverpool attacker Hugo Ekitike after he nodded in the visitors crucial second goal.



    Leeds United have upset Crystal Palace 4-1.

    Chelsea came from two down to draw 2-all with Newcastle.

    Sunderland drew nil-all with Brighton, Bournemouth and Burnley drew 1-all and Brentford beat Wolves 2-nil.
