"Scandalous" VAR, Manchester United’s missing link and the "world's best" penalty taker

The Premier League is now six matches into the new season and the table is beginning to take shape as the runners and riders jostle for position.

Arsenal remain top of the pile, despite seeing their winning streak ended in a 3-1 defeat by Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday. After making a shocking start to the Erik ten Hag era, United have now put together four straight wins to move up to fifth, below Tottenham and Brighton, who beat Fulham and Leicester respectively to maintain their strong starts.

Defending champions Manchester City were held to a 1-1 draw by Aston Villa, but are just a point off Arsenal and much better off than rivals Liverpool, who drew 0-0 with Everton in the Merseyside Derby. Chelsea are sixth following a very contentious 2-1 win over West Ham in an incident-packed London derby, while Brentford thrashed Leeds 5-2 thanks to a hat-trick from Ivan Toney.
