All the traditional big teams in the English premier league on Saturday recorded morale boosting wins against their opponents as Man United beat Tottenham 1-0, Man City beat West Brom 3-2, Liverpool thrashed premier league newbies Huddersfield 3-0 while Eden Hazard helped a misfiring Alvaro Morata Chelsea by scoring the lone goal in his team's win over Bournemouth.

Man U 1-0 Tottenham

Before the game, most of the talk was around how Tottenham could cope without their star man, Harry Kane, while Man U coach, Jose Mourinho received criticism over his team's performance against Huddersfield last week with some fans weary of a repeat.

Tottenham through Dele Alli missed opportunities to grab a massive three points at Old Trafford and by just being in the pitch for twenty minutes in the second half, Anthony Martial, seriously courted by Barcelona FC smartly placed the ball into the net after being put through by a Lukaku header that simply confused Tottenham's defense.

Martial, who has six goals in total this campaign, replaced Marcus Rashford after 70 minutes before receiving Lukaku's headed flick then beating Hugo Lloris.

'I want to play, I don't want to play on the bench but Marcus is doing good too, the manager wants to give us both a chance,' said Martial to press after the game.

Liverpool 3-0 Huddersfield

Forget their 2-1 win over Man United, it was only just going to be a matter of time before Huddersfield get caught in the 'premier league fever' and Liverpool gave them a taste of the medicine they received from Tottenham last week.

Daniel Sturridge pounced on a mistake by Tommy Smith to score his 100th goal in club competition before Roberto Firmino’s header doubled the lead and Georginio Wijnaldum smartly smashed home the third to lift the Reds three places up the table to sixth spot. Congrats to them !

Bournemouth 0-1 Chelsea

Whoever says Cesc Fabregas is not deseving of a new deal at Chelsea will have a serious reality check after today's game as the Spaniard showed why he's so highly rated in the modern game with his performance today.

With Bournemouth boasting a former Chelsea player in Nathan Ake, the club were ready to shut up shop against the Blues but were undone by an Eden Hazard who with each passing goal, looks like a player that could be heading to Barcelona or Real Madrid pretty soon.

Alvaro Morata held the ball up superbly, and pitched a pass into the left channel to which Eden Hazard fired through Asmir Begovic and into the goal. Chelsea, who came from behind to beat Watford days back, will surely want to keep this winning run going.

West Brom 2-3 Man City

This was always going to be an interesting game as West Brom with Johnny Evans, wanted heavily by Man City in the summer, have not just been good defensively but also hurt their opponents with long balls and Lacey football down the channels when they are in the mood .

21 year old German international, Leroy Sane was the man of the match as The Citizens beat West Brom without Sane scoring and assisting during the game . Sane at the beginning of this season just started just one out of the first five premier league games but has gotten back the trust of his manager, Pep Guardiola, and has started the last five with his performance in today's match further prove that the player is now key to Man City's football. Man City have now won 13 games in a row in all competitions - a new Club record and are now unbeaten in 21 games – a new Club record.
