Manchester City scraped a late point against Liverpool, leaving fans to wonder if the draw has shattered their Premier League bid. Mark Chapman noted the stoppage‑time equaliser eased pressure but offered no cushion over rivals chasing the crown. With Arsenal and Tottenham still in contention, City’s slip could prove decisive for the title chase.

Arsenal delivered a clinical 3‑1 victory over Fulham, prompting debate over Arteta’s earlier decision to bench Myles Lewis‑Skelly in midfield. Charlie Adam praised the attacking flair, while Rory Smith argued the youngster’s omission cost early points. Tottenham, meanwhile, clinched a 2‑0 win in the final minutes, snatching three points that keep them within touching distance of the leaders in the title race.

West Ham endured a bruising weekend, dropping points at home and widening the gap to European spots. De Zerbi’s influence on Spurs was evident as they turned a sluggish start into a decisive triumph, reinforcing his reputation for tactical overhaul. In Scotland, Hearts edged closer to the title after a narrow win, underscoring the parallel drama unfolding north of the border this season.
