Lee Davy brings you a full round up of week six of the greatest footballing league in the world including the end of Man City’s unbeaten run, another crazy display from Diego Costa and much more.
Week 6 of the Barclays Premier League was the week that saw Manchester City lose their 100% record. The club was denied the opportunity to beat Arsenal’s Premiership straight win record (14 in 2003/04) after West Ham halting that run at 11.
The Hammers delivered a nasty case of Blue Balls with a 2 v 1 away victory. It now means Slaven Bilic’s men has taken maximum points from their first three away games, against Arsenal, Liverpool and Man City. Forget blowing bubbles. The Hammers are dreamwalking. It’s the first time they have won their first three away games of the season since 2007.
City hadn’t even conceded a single goal until Victor Moses and Diafra Sakho gave Joe Hart’s back a few spasms. £54m January signing Kevin De Bruyne scoring a consolation goal for a City side that was the most expensive ever assembled in Premier League history.
