## Summary

Premier League players delivered several standout performances during the weekend’s action, including Liam Delap’s return to form and Diego Gómez’s latest spectacular goal for Brighton. The results and individual displays also raised questions about Arsenal’s scoring rate and Manchester United’s defending.

Delap scored twice for Nottingham Forest in a 3-1 win over Manchester City, while Aston Villa’s 20-year-old Alysson scored and helped create two goals in a 4-4 draw at Manchester United. Gómez opened the scoring against Brentford with a left-footed strike; his earlier halfway-line goal against Crystal Palace was hit with his right. Arsenal beat Hull by a single goal and went into the international break six points clear of City, but had scored only 15 goals in their first 10 league matches.
