Having rounded up the results of Saturday, lets talk about the super Sunday results of Arsenal v Stoke and Man United v Southampton.
First of all Arsenal v Stoke, a complete different performance from the gunners compared to their 3-2 loss against stoke few weeks ago. Of course they were at the Emirates and they had pretty much their whole squad available to them but they played really well especially the man of the match Alexis Sanchez. Arsenal also welcomed back Mesut Ozil for the last 15 minutes or so, nice to see him back in action.
However the win was dampened by the injury to Debuchy who had to be taken off in the second half with a dislocated shoulder. Stoke didn't have the best of games with a bellow average performance.
Moving onto the United game a very close match between the two and finished 1-0 to Southampton. Their defence was absolutely excellent and so was the whole team, defended really well and well organised team. United played an average game however key players didn't perform on the day, Di Maria got subbed off 20 minutes to go and had really couldn't have an influence on the game. And Van Persie also had a quiete game but Rooney, Juan Mata played good especially Mata and he had many chances to equalise but it just wasn't his day.
Had to give credit to Morgan Shniderlin who played excellently, tackled, attacked and passed and an all round good performance by the midfielder. No wonder clubs are linked with yet again in the January transfer window. United lacked the creativity and the finishing was awful with no shots on target. And so Southampton over takes united into 3rd position.
