#7 Manchester United finally hold on to a lead
Trending
Finally, the Red Devils have won a game in the league. Surprising eh? Manchester United have had a poor start to the season by their standards dropping too many points, especially at home. Mourinho’s habit of trying to hold onto a one-goal lead has proven to be too much for Manchester United’s defence to handle, but it wasn’t the case against Spurs.
Marcos Rojo put in a fantastic performance along with Phil Jones as the Manchester United defence gave Tottenham very few chances. For once, Manchester United ended up on the winning side despite playing good football consistently for the last few games. Could this be the start of a long winning streak? Only time will tell.
#8 Liverpool’s dip in form and poor defence is worrying for Klopp
One month ago, Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool seemed almost unstoppable. The Reds were one of the best attacking sides not only in the Premier League but Europe in terms of goals. However, with Philippe Coutinho and Daniel Sturridge missing, Liverpool’s attack doesn’t seem to be as convincing.
In defence, the Reds have been anything but special this season. A fantastic attack has been making the defence look better than they are. With Liverpool looking less threatening up front, the flaws in defence have been clear – most notably for Michail Antonio’s goal when the defence seemed to be asleep.
Ultimately. it looks like Liverpool's defence isn't good enough to win the League.
