Last update 6 April, 2024 by Alberto Llopis

The 5th day of the Premier League has left the two London teams leading the Premier League thanks to both victories and the surprising defeat of Liverpool at Anfield. Arsenal beat Stoke City at the Emirates, while Tottenham beat Cardiff away. Sunderland, Crystal Palace and Fulham occupy relegation places.

The Premier is the best league in the world, also the most exciting, Proof of this is that no team manages to stay in first position for more than two days.. Yes during 15 days Liverpool looked like a solid leader, Pochettino's Southampton arrives and takes the 3 points at Anfield this weekend, consequence, Arsenal and Tottenham rise to first position. And this season is shaping up to be the most open of the last few campaigns., until 6 teams opt to lift the title at the end of the season.

Arsenal comfortably beat Stoke City at home, with OzÏl distributing the game, the gunners are at the top. The German is already the Premier's top assistant in just two days. Players like Ramsey or Giroud are being Mesut's faithful squires. The gunners are aiming high this campaign.

Spurs beat Cardiff in Wales thanks to a solitary goal from Paulinho. Despite not being at 100% and be a renewed team, Tottenham is little by little finding its style of play. Con 4 victories, all for the minimum, They are together with Arsenal at the top. Next week they host Mourinho's Chelsea. It will be a good test to see what the Spurs can do..

Chelsea, Liverpool and City chase the two London clubs, con 10 points, at the beginning of the season and all the options for them. In the cases of City and the “Blues”, Its start has been very irregular. City's victory against United this weekend, will give wings to Pellegrini's men, This victory is one of those that is worth double. Agüero was a nightmare for the “Red Devils”. The Liverpool “Reds” will have to prove against the bottom team, Sunderland, the next day, that this weekend at Anfield has been a simple unimportant setback.

Important away victories for Hull City and Swansea with a goal from Michu. Sunderland does not lift its head, remains bottom and with Di Canio on the brink of dismissal. The controversial Italian coach, known for his fascist beliefs, he may lose his job this week.
