9) Manchester City win the derby but don't let the win fool you

On Saturday, Manchester City made Old Trafford look like their training ground for the first forty minutes of the game. However, those of you already saying Pep’s City is ahead of Jose Mourinho’s Manchester United must be warned. Manchester City wasn't clinical at times with the likes of Claudio Bravo, John Stones, and Bacary Sagna faltering. While Bravo distributed the ball well, it was his error that led to Zlatan's goal and almost conceded a penalty in the second half.
John Stones misplaced a few simple passes that almost threw away the game while teenager Marcus Rashford could end Sagna’s career next time around if the French right-back continues to be inconsistent. As Pep Guardiola said after the game, Manchester City needs to step up their game considerably if they want to win the war that is the Premier League. Manchester United may have lost but Marcus Rashford, Ander Herrera, and Antonio Valencia have given the Red Devils a lot to be positive about from the Derby loss.

Everton’s new manager Ronald Koeman has had an incredible start to the 2016-17 season of the Premier League as Everton picked up 3 more points to now move into the third position on the table behind Chelsea nad Manchester City. And now, striker Romelu Lukaku’s hat-trick could give the Toffees hope of aiming for a top four finish.
While all the talk about the best striker in the Premier League has been coming from the City of Manchester and Chelsea, Everton’s Romelu Lukaku has surely stolen the show this weekend after their late game against Sunderland. Should the striker stay on top of his game for the rest of the season, it could mean great things for Everton and Koeman.
