Harry Kane back with a bang to help Spurs claim all the vital 3 points.
Harry Kane has now scored 208 goals in 317 appearances in all competitions for Tottenham, making him the joint-second highest scorer in the club’s history alongside Bobby Smith (also 208 goals in 317 apps).
Only in 2016-17 (14) has Son Heung-Min scored more goals in a single Premier League campaign than the 13 he has netted already this season.
• joint second most goals [13]
• most assists [11]
Having an unbelievable campaign.
Only Callum Wilson (40%) and Dominic Calvert-Lewin (38%) have scored a higher portion of their team’s Premier League goals this season than Spurs duo Harry Kane and Son Heung-Min (13/36 each – 36%).
West Brom have now conceded 28 goals in 10 games under Sam Allardyce, the joint-most a team has conceded after a manager’s first 10 Premier Leagueeague games alongside Danny Wilson (Barnsley 1997), Nigel Adkins (Southampton 2012) and Slavisa Jokanovic (Fulham 2018).
Liverpool 1-4 Man City FT:
Gündogan
Salah (penalty)
Gündogan
Sterling
Foden
Man City score four second half goals to move 10 points clear of Liverpool with a game in hand.
For the first time in FIFTY-EIGHT years, Liverpool have lost three consecutive league games at Anfield.
Nearly twice as long as they waited for the Premier League title.
Liverpool are the first side to lose three straight home league matches in the following campaign after winning the English top-flight since Chelsea did so almost 65 years ago back in March 1956. Throwback.
ManCity have now equalled the all-time winning run by an English top-flight side across all competitions, winning each of their last 14 matches – the same number as Preston (ending in 1892) and Arsenal (ending in 1987). Stupendous.
After 23 games this season, Liverpool (40) now have 27 fewer points than they did at the same stage last season (67), the biggest drop by any reigning champion at this stage of a campaign in English top-flight history.
What!! Can somebody explain to me what is wrong with the defending champions!??
