About this episode
Essential Football is back with a round-up of all the weekend's Premier League matches, featuring pundit reaction, interviews and reporter analysis from up and down the top flight.

PART ONE | Newcastle once again displayed their impressive credentials under Eddie Howe with a 3-3 draw against champions Man City at St James' Park. Pep Guardiola and Micah Richards heap praise on Allain Saint-Maximin's part in the result, while we're also at Elland Road and the London Stadium, where Adam Bate and Zinny Boswell watched impressive afternoons for Leeds and Brighton - but less-so for Chelsea and West Ham.

PART TWO | On Saturday in the Premier League, Harry Kane became a history maker with his 250th Tottenham goal against Wolves. Lewis Jones talks us through the lunch-time kick-off at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, while we also look back at Arsenal's 3-0 win over Bournemouth, with Mikel Arteta's assessment of the afternoon and Jamie Redknapp's views on how the Gunners have improved.

PART THREE | There was another first on Saturday afternoon as Fulham hosted Brentford in the top flight for the first time, while we also hear the fall-out from a another tough day's work for Everton which left Frank Lampard frustrated with his side's finishing. He's not the only manager under pressure - hear from Aston Villa boss Steven Gerrard on his problem with penalties and Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers' concerns over the Foxes squad after disappointing results against Crystal Palace and Southampton.

And that's your Premier League weekend wrap!
