13 things we loved this weekend: Ndombele, Lukaku, Guendouzi & more
In another mad weekend of Premier League football, none of the ‘big six’ won their matches – with Arsenal falling to a new low.ย
Elsewhere across the world, Gio Reyna scored one the best consolation goals we’ve ever seen and the budding bromance between Roy Keane and Micah Richards gathered further momentum.
Weโve rounded up the best of the action on and off the pitch.
Matteo Guendouzi
Arsenal could do with someone like this right now…
