PREMIER LEAGUE RESULTS ROUND-UP:
February 03, 2023 - Chelsea 0 Fulham 0: Even a debut for £107m record buy Enzo Fernandez could not inspire big-spending Chelsea to victory, while the draw moved Fulham two points above their West London rivals. "We feel we have a very strong group of players," said Chelsea manager Graham Potter. "We have to gel and become a really good team. That’s where the work is." Getty
Saturday, February 4 - Everton 1 (Tarkowski 60') Arsenal 0: A dream start for new Everton manager Sean Dyche as his struggling side defeated table-topping Arsenal in front of a raucus Goodison Park crowd, thanks to James Tarkowski's second-half header. "We needed more composure and to control emotionally the game better," said Gunners manager Mikel Arteta. "We gave away so many unnecessary free-kicks and that's what they want." Getty
Aston Villa 2 (Watkins 9', Souttar og 32') Leicester City 4 (Maddison 12', Iheanacho 41', Tete 45+2', Praet 79'): Leicester defeated a Villa side in good form under Unai Emery as new winger Tete scored one and enjoyed a sparkling debut. It was the Foxes' first league win since since November. "Tete is direct, can take people on and score," Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers said of Tete. "He's someone we've been looking for for a while. He was outstanding." Getty
Brentford 3 (Mee 41', Mbeumo 44', Jensen 80') Southampton 0: Brentford brushed aside struggling Southampton on the south coast as goals from Ben Mee, Bryan Mbeumo and Mathias Jenson helped the Bees' push for a European place. "There's a real good buzz around the dressing room and at the club," said defender Mee. "Fans can dream of Europe; we'll keep going and work hard for them." Reuters
Brighton 1 (Mitoma 87') Bournemouth 0: Following on from his last-gasp FA Cup winner against Liverpool, Kaoru Mitoma headed home a late goal here to earn the Seagulls three points against a Cherries side without a win since November 12. Brighton manager Roberto de Zerbi said: "Today he didn't play a fantastic game, but when you have Mitoma on the pitch you can never substitute him because you always expect one goal." PA
Manchester United 2 (Fernandes pen 7', Rashford 62') Crystal Palace 1 (Schlupp 76'): A win for United that took them back up to third in the table. The gloss taken off the victory, though, when Casemiro was sent-off for grabbing Will Hughes around his neck. The key midfielder is now suspended for three games. United manager Erik Ten Hag said of the red card: "I see two teams where several players crossed the line and one player is picked out and gets sent off. For me that's not right." AFP
Wolves 3 (Matip og 5', Dawson 12', Neves 71') Liverpool 0: Wolves dragged themselves two points clear of the relegation zone as an own goal from Joel Matip, followed by Craig Dawson and Ruben Neves strikes added to Liverpool's recent woes. "Against these kind of teams you have to be very close to perfection, if not you don't score and sometimes it's not enough," Wolves manager Julen Lopetegui said. AFP
Newcastle 1 (Wilson 3') West Ham 1 (Paqueta 32') Newcastle striker Callum Wilson scored his first goal since October 29 but also missed two glorious chances to win the game, as Lucas Paqueta's leveller earned the Hammers a point. "It was a tight game, very bright start," said Newcastle manager Eddie Howe. "We didn't carry that on for the first half, second half was good but we couldn't break them down." Getty
Sunday Febraury 5 - Nottingham Forest 1 (Johnson 14') Leeds 0: Brennan Johnson scored the only goal of the game to pile the pressure on Leeds manager Jesse Marsch who has seen his side go seven league games without a win. "I was disappointed with our football today," Forest manager Steve Cooper said. "We're building an identity, we're building a team, we've been doing that from the summer so ... step-by-step." Getty
