Five things we learned from the Premier League

Hazard started the season so well in his usual midfield role that he was voted Premier League Player of the Month for September.

But Sarri is determined to stick with the move after Hazard set up Pedro’s opener in the 2-1 win at Brighton and then netted his ninth goal of the season with a fine solo strike.

“He’s very able to come out and play with his team-mates, very able to create spaces,” Sarri said.

Emery urges Arsenal to tighten up

Unai Emery has warned his Arsenal stars they will not qualify for next season’s Champions League if they continue to drop points against the Premier League’s lesser lights.

Arsenal manager Emery saw his side’s 22-match unbeaten run in all competitions end in a shock 3-2 defeat at struggling Southampton.

The Gunners are three points behind fourth-placed Chelsea and Emery knows Arsenal must defend far more solidly if they are to reach the Champions League at the end of his first season in charge.

“If we won’t win like today, we cannot be in the top four. Other teams usually they are winning,” he said after a sloppy defensive display capped by an error from goalkeeper Bernd Leno for Charlie Austin’s 85th-minute winner.

Skipp earns his Spurs

Mauricio Pochettino backed teenager Oliver Skipp to star for years to come after the midfielder’s impressive first senior start in a 1-0 win against Burnley.

The 18-year-old, who made his Premier League debut against Southampton as a substitute 10 days ago, was thrown into the starting line-up at Wembley after Eric Dier was struck down by appendicitis.

Skipp did not look out of place as he used the ball well, completing 46 successful passes, before being taken off in the final 15 minutes as Tottenham chased a winner that arrived in stoppage-time through Christian Eriksen.

“Fantastic, I think he played like a 30-year-old man,” Tottenham boss Pochettino said.

“So relaxed, trying to play forward. I’m so proud of him.”
