In an unexpected twist, Tottenham Hotspur delivered a commanding performance over the weekend, thrashing Manchester City 4-0 at the Emirates. The Lilywhites were in scintillating form, led by Man-of-the-Match James Maddison, who opened the scoring with a brilliant brace. The result marks an unwelcome milestone for Pep Guardiola—recently committed to an extended stay at City—as he suffers the biggest home defeat of his managerial career and endures a fifth consecutive loss in all competitions. Meanwhile, Liverpool capitalized on City's chaos, stretching their lead at the top to eight points, with a Mo Salah double sealing a hard-fought 3-2 victory against a resilient Southampton. Over in North London, Arsenal showcased the deadly Saka-Odegaard connection, cruising to a 3-0 triumph over Nottingham Forest. However, it was a tough start for Ruben Amorim in his debut as Manchester United manager, with the Red Devils held to a 1-1 draw by Ipswich Town. All that and more on this week's Just For Kicks.
