Five things we learned from the Premier League

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer began the weekend with talk of a rebuild and reality check for some of his players. “We can’t change the whole squad, it has to be one step at a time but I said all along, I’m going to be successful here and there are players who won’t be part of that successful team.”Liverpool’s 2-0 win at Cardiff took their tally to 88 points, a club record in the Premier League era, with three games still to play.
Therefore, even the third highest points tally English football has ever seen might not be enough to win the league. City were far from their best and Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino claimed the hosts’ goalkeeper Ederson was man-of-the-match. There was worse to come for Mustafi as the German centre-back bizarrely allowed Wilfried Zaha to run past him to score Palace’s second in a slapstick piece of defending that recalled the worst moments of Wenger’s reign.
