Shea Given, Charlie Adam, Rory Smith with us.
Has Victor Gyokeres been a successful signing for his team?
Everton 3, Manchester City 3. And somehow, Mike Miney, with the final whistle going, City have rescued a point.
Yeah, and who knows where that leaves Manchester City or Everton come May 24th and the final day of the season. Everton 3, Manchester City 3. Five of the six goals coming in a crazy second half.
What went wrong for West Ham this weekend?
Jeremy Dokku opening the scoring with a curling effort just before the break. and then all hell let loose when Manchester City became masters of their own downfall. Firstly, Marc Gueye passing it back terribly, allowing Thierno Barry to steal in and steer it into the far left-hand corner. Moments later, Jake O'Brien's header from a corner had Everton 2-1 up. Everton were too clear when Thierno Barry made it 3-1, assisted by Merlin Rule, cross low on the right-hand side and he just tapped it in with his left boot. Manchester City from that kick-off instantly got one back to make it 3-2, Erling Haaland dinking over Jordan Pickford, and then in the seventh minute of stoppage time, Jeremy Doku at it again, this time with his right foot, curling effort, edge of the D, past the flying Jordan Pickford,
and made it 3-3. But Arsenal now have the advantage in terms of points in the title race, because Manchester City could only get one here. David Moyes still denied his first ever victory over Pep Guardiola in the Premier League, and Manchester City's great record over Everton comes to a little stall tonight as the players of Everton
How has De Zerbi inspired Spurs to perform better?
certainly look a little bit perplexed how they've let that slip they did face an onslaught towards the end Manchester City fans in that corner in the northwest side are now pointing and waving their hands towards the players in support of their efforts to rescue a point tonight but it is absolutely the case of the word rescue because for that most of that second half the intensity that Everton played with the surge forward of their players, the rawness of their fans, carried their team into a 3-1 lead. Manchester City claw it back in a great game of Premier League football on a Monday night, and somehow we end up with a fantastic scoreline of Everton 3, Manchester City 3.
Both sets of players look crestfallen, don't they? Oh, yeah, both were gutted, didn't they? They were that close, Everton, and... But again, you've got to play right to the last moment, and it's a lovely finish from Doku, but that's a big dent in the title race for Man City. But you've got to pick yourself up now and go again. So five points the difference between Arsenal and City. City with the game in hand. They still have Palace at home, Brentford at home, Villa at home, and they have to go to Bournemouth. Arsenal still have to go to West Ham and Crystal Palace, and they have Burnley at home. It is surely now Arsenal's to lose, Rory.
Yeah, absolutely.
What does Hearts' progress mean for their title race?
That late goal from Doku changes it a little bit. As I say, I think it means that Arsenal can't afford to lose a game. But yeah, that was the break they'd been waiting for. And I guess it proves that City's players are susceptible to nerves as well. We have been treating it as though the only team that can buckle in the title race is Arsenal. But that's not true because that's what City have... Arsenal laid down the gauntlet on Saturday. They beat Fulham 3-0. They got the win and the goal difference and said to City, go on then and see if you can catch us. And City couldn't, ultimately. They stumbled.
I don't think anyone's thought they're going to drop two points tonight.
