The good: The Chelsea machine, another Burnley win and a Clyne goal (for most Fantasy PL managers) The bad: Another goalless afternoon for Leicester. The ugly: Liverpool's form. Being destroyed by Crystal Palace...a new low?

goldenboot most United fans would've been ecstatic with the result especially with the chances Arsenal had in the first half. Wenger is probably in a stronger position but if they fail to make top 4 the daggers will surely be out.

Being a United fan I was happily surprised with the result when I woke up. I was thinking maybe a 1-1 draw considering our good record against the Gunners. I don't think Wenger will get the sack, but it is astounding how little success Arsenal have had in the last decade despite always being capable of beautiful football. I think Rodgers is in a far more dangerous position, despite what the board have said
