Premier League team of the week: Tottenham stars keep team top of the table

Aston Villa and Newcastle also well represented after impressive wins over West Ham and Crystal Palace

The Premier League returned from the international break this past weekend and it was a round packed with goals and drama.

The action got underway at Anfield on Saturday afternoon, where Liverpool won the Merseyside derby, defeating 10-man Everton 2-0 thanks to a Mohamed Salah double.

That was followed by five matches at the traditional Saturday kick-off time. Wolves fought back to defeat winless Bournemouth 2-1 at Vitality Stadium as manager Gary O'Neill got one over his former team, while Brentford secured their first home win of the season with a 3-0 victory over struggling Burnley.

Champions Manchester City bounced back from successive defeats with a 2-1 win over Brighton at the Etihad Stadium, Newcastle crushed Crystal Palace 4-0 at St James' Park, and Luton Town fought back to claim a 2-2 draw at Nottingham Forest having fallen two goals down following a Chris Wood brace.

In the Saturday evening game, Chelsea looked on course for their most impressive win of the season but their 2-0 lead over unbeaten Arsenal was chased down and the match at Stamford Bridge ended 2-2. On Saturday night, Manchester United edged past bottom side Sheffield United 2-1 at Bramall Lane.

There was only one fixture on Sunday but it was one to savor for Aston Villa as Unai Emery's side trounced West Ham 4-1. The round then concluded on Monday night when Tottenham returned to the top of the table with a 2-0 win over London rivals Fulham.
