Liverpool yet to find balance, Spurs gamble paying off
Post
|August 27, 2025
LIVERPOOL needed more late heroics to keep pace with Arsenal and Tottenham at the top of the Premier League as 16-year-old Rio Ngumoha snatched a dramatic 3-2 win for the Reds at Newcastle on Monday.
-
Arsenal were far more convincing in a 5-0 demolition of Leeds, but Spurs produced the performance of the weekend as they eased to a 2-0 win at Manchester City.
Here's a look at the major talking points from the second round of Premier League fixtures:
Clinical Liverpool playing with fire
Liverpool are yet to drop a point in their title defence, but could easily have failed to win both their opening games as Arne Slot is yet to strike the right balance between his high-powered attack and a struggling defence.
Slot’s men also struck twice late on to beat Bournemouth 4-2 on the opening night of the season.
Newcastle dominated most of the match at St James’ Park despite going down to 10 men in the first half when Anthony Gordon saw red.
Ngumoha’s emergence adds to the wealth of attacking talent on offer to Slot, who started all of Mohamed Salah, Cody Gakpo, Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitike.
Newcastle’s wantaway star striker Alexander Isak could also yet arrive at Anfield for a British transfer record fee this week.
