Part 2

Liverpool’s unbeaten home run came to an end on Thursday thanks to a 1-0 defeat to a late Burnley penalty.

Man United kept their lead at the top of the table, Paul Pogba’s stunning goal gave them a 2-1 win at Fulham. Meanwhile, City’s good form continued with a 2-0 win over Aston Villa.

Part 3

Today it was announced that Frank Lampard was sacked as Chelsea manager only 18 months into a 3-year contract. His final game was a 3-1 win at home to Luton Town. He has the lowest points per game total of any Chelsea manager in the Roman Abramovich era. He has left the club in ninth place in the Premier League and 11 points off leaders Man United and five points off Liverpool in fourth.

Part 4

There’s midweek Premier League action to look forward to this week. Chelsea face Wolves on Wednesday, but that will likely be too early for Tuchel, so what can we expect from the Blues post-Lampard?
