What a sensational Premier League football match between Tottenham and Chelsea. Crammed with talking points, Pochettino returned to his old stomping ground with his new club and ended Big Ange's unblemished Spurs record. Tottenham were reduced to 9-men and Nicolas Jackson scored a hat-trick - and that's just the start as there were major injuries to key players, disallowed goals and tactical drama. Quality stuff!

The Manchester United rumour mill continues to turn this week following a poor run of form which saw them lose 0-3 at Old Trafford in back-to-back games against Manchester City and Newcastle United. Reports suggest the club have their eyes on Zinedine Zidane and Ruben Amorim, but is there any truth in this, and would a managerial change improve the situation at Old Trafford? We also look ahead to Mauricio Pochettino's first return to his old club Tottenham on Monday as Chelsea face off against their London rivals, but will there any love lost from Spurs fans or is Ange-mania is full swing?
