Chelsea have the best defence in the Premier League, Liverpool are the only unbeaten side left while Manchester City have found their groove... how the title rivals are faring as just two points separates them after nine games so far

And then there were three. If there was any talk of Manchester United being true title contenders, those believing so were silenced on Sunday evening after they thumped 5-0 at home by Liverpool.

The Reds, led by a Mohamed Salah hat-trick, ran riot at Old Trafford as they dismantled their bitter rivals on their own patch. This result wasn't the only eye-catching scoreline of the weekend though as Chelsea thrashed Norwich City 7-0 and defending Premier League champions Manchester City were sublime in a 4-1 win at Brighton. The trio's combined triumphs totalled for an aggregate score of 16-1.
