EPL Gameweek #17 preview

Caretaker Managers go to war as Duncan Ferguson takes The Toffees to Old Trafford and Freddie Ljungberg prepares Arsenal for the visit of Manchester City 

Job interviews are tough. You’re under enormous personal scrutiny, you have to prepare yourself for tricky questions and believe in yourself 100%, while at the same time being able to listen your potential employers’ thoughts and beliefs. Imagine doing one while a Manchester club is running at your team in the Premier League.

This weekend sees some tasty match ups, with Southampton and West Ham in a real six-pointer at St. Mary’s Stadium, while Spurs travel to Wolves looking for their latest away victory under Jose Mourinho. Elsewhere, Liverpool vs. Watford is a top-vs-bottom clash that even new manager Nigel ‘Are you an Ostrich?’ Pearson might want to stick his head in the sand for.

We start, however, with the North-West and North-East clash that looks to have the Premier League table upside down at Turf Moor.
