Chelsea Star Heading For Exit? Why Mourinho MUST Keep Hold











It was goals galore in the Premier League as 32 goals were scored during the course of Saturday's action alone, and there were some fine strikes to be admired.
West Brom have not had an upturn in results since sacking Steve Clarke back in December and are still without a win under Pepe Mel. The Baggies currently sit in 17th position in the Premier League table and find themselves in major trouble, as at the weekend Cardiff City moved level on points after the Baggies fell to defeat against Manchester United.
Manchester United climber further up the table with a 1-0 win over Norwich yesterday, and although they got the three points they certainly made hard work of it. Here are three things we learned from the tie.
How about that Luis Suarez, eh? His eyes must light up when Norwich crop up on the fixture list as it seems to be a guaranteed hat-trick every time he plays them.
Luis Suarez may not be the most popular player on the planet, but he's certainly an incredible player when a ball is thrown at his feet. The Uruguayan scored four at Anfield yesterday evening as Liverpool romped to a 5-1 victory over Norwich, and he even claimed an assist in the latter stages.
Often I see teams that are struggling and I think that they're not far off being a good team, they just need a couple of players to complete the jigsaw. Norwich currently occupy 14th in the Premier League, just four points above the relegation zone, but it's their defensive record and lack of firepower in front of goal which is becoming a real concern. They have the second worst defensive record in the league and only two teams have scored less goals than them. My list heavily features defenders and attackers but the midfield did receive some attention, which goes without saying.
It's Friday, the end of the working week and that only means one thing: time to sit down and watch loads of football.
A spirited second half display from Norwich was not enough to prevent them from falling to 2-1 defeat away to Newcastle last weekend, with a solitary Leroy Fer goal late in the second half providing scant consolation for the Canaries’ travelling fans.
Newcastle will be looking to build on an impressive victory over Tottenham when they host Norwich on Saturday.
Following last weekend's embarrassing 7-0 defeat to Manchester City, questions were inevitably asked on whether or not Chris Hughton was the right man to manage Norwich City in what is shaping up to be a difficult season for the Canaries.
As we approach the quarter point of the season, it still remains difficult to gauge which sides are set for a long winter of battling the drop. Crystal Palace look destined for a year of struggle, whilst Sunderland despite their victory on Sunday still have it all to do but aside from those sides it is incredibly challenging to signal which other team look most likely to drop. Here we outline some of those most in danger.
After a couple of seasons of consolidating their Premier League status, Norwich decided to take the next step this summer, splashing out on £13.5m worth of attacking talent.
While Match of the Day aired Arsenal's 4-1 drubbing of Norwich, the nation were left with nothing but admiration for how the Gunners ripped apart the Canaries. Arsene Wenger had his troops firing from all cylinders at the Emirates on Saturday in a victory that opened up a two-point gap at the top of the Premier League, leaving Chelsea and Liverpool to battle it out for 2nd.
Following yesterday's 4-1 win over Norwich, Arsenal sit atop the Premier League table today after eight games.
