England: Premier League Weekend Review, Reports & Analysis

It was an all too familiar story for Arsenal as they lost to Chelsea, while Liverpool sunk to a new low as Blackpool silenced Anfield.

Elsewhere, Everton climbed off the foot of the table with their first win of the season, Rafael van der Vaart stole the show at White Hart Lane, while Manchester City rose to second place. Wigan Athletic's first league win of the term at the DW Stadium was marred by a horrible tackle by Wolverhampton Wanderers captain Karl Henry that rightly resulted in a red card, with the victim Jordi Gomez fortunate to escape serious injury. Draw specialists Fulham played out a 1-1 result against West Ham United at Upton Park.
