Premier League: 10 Talking Points from the Weekend’s Action
As the Premier League season continues to unfold, we’re left with more questions than answers. The weekend’s action brought us some thrilling matches, surprising results, and a few eyebrow-raising performances. Here are my top 10 talking points from the weekend’s action.
Arsenal Still Have Room for Improvement
Arsenal’s 2-1 win over Crystal Palace was a testament to their growing strength, but it also highlighted areas where they can improve. Mikel Arteta’s men dominated possession, but their inability to convert chances into goals is a concern. With Manchester City and Liverpool lurking, Arsenal need to find a way to be more clinical in front of goal.

Erling Haaland: The Enigma
Erling Haaland’s Manchester City debut was a mixed bag. The Norwegian striker’s pace and power are undeniable, but his finishing was woeful. Pep Guardiola will be hoping Haaland can find his scoring boots soon, or City’s title hopes might slip away.
