Manchester United picked up a significant away win at Anfield — their first at Liverpool’s ground in a long time — breaking a psychological barrier.
This result may be more than just three points. For Manchester United, it suggests a revival of confidence: they proved they can win at traditionally difficult venues. For Liverpool, it’s a further red flag: four straight defeats and cracks showing in defence.
Newly-promoted Sunderland are bucking the typical trend, matching best ever starts for a promoted side (14 points from 8) after defeating Wolves 2-0.
Arsenal recorded a clean sheet again, and references note that they have prevented their opponents from even having a shot on target in consecutive matches.
