Leicester continue to struggle, losing a two-goal lead against Palace to draw 2-2.

Tottenham get a much needed win against Aston Villa and Brentford continue their impressive start to the season with a 2-1 with at West Ham.

Watford have sacked manager Xisco Munoz after 10 months in charge. They are currently 15th in the league with 2 wins and 7 points from their opening 7 games. Claudio Ranieri has been tipped to take over.

 

[Birdman]

What a goal by Mo Salah. World class.

James Milner should have received a second yellow card about 5 minutes earlier though imo.

 

[Fraser]

Ranieri has been confirmed as the new Watford manager on a two-year deal.

I'll be very surprised if he sees out the two years.

 

[Tom]

I'll be very surprised if he sees out the two years.

They should have just given him a contract until Christmas - I'll be amazed if he sees out the season

 

[Random Guy]

The Saudi-led takeover of Newcastle United has been completed. Newcastle are now the richest club in world football. Expect big changes to happen at St James Park in the coming months and next few transfer windows.

 

[Zidane]

Raheem Sterling says he would consider leaving Manchester City and moving abroad.

"If there was an opportunity to go somewhere else, for more game time, I would be open to it at this moment in time."

A supercomputer has predicted the final Premier League table.

Top 4: Chelsea (winners), Liverpool, Man City, Brentford
Europa League Qualifiers: Man United, West Ham
Relegated: Norwich (bottom), Southampton and Burnley

I can't see Brentford finishing in the top 4 but the rest is plausible.

Average seasons for Leicester, Tottenham and Arsenal who finish in 11th, 12th and 13th respectively.

 

[Steve]

This has been brilliant from Brentford. They really deserve an equaliser

 

[Crabtree]

Chelsea thumped Norwich 7-0 today.

Norwich really are whipping boys every time they get promoted to the Premier League.

 

[Legion]

Liverpool leading Man United within 5 minutes. Naby Keita with the goal.
