Premier League round-up:

Liverpool snatch late victory away to Nottingham Forest

Liverpool scraped a dramatic 1-0 win at Nottingham Forest despite producing one of their worst performances of the season.

Arne Slot’s side struggled throughout, with Jamie Carragher calling their first half a “horror show.” But deep into stoppage time, Alexis Mac Allister sealed the victory, just minutes after having a goal ruled out by VAR.

Eze and Gyokeres inspire Arsenal to NLD win

Eberechi Eze struck twice as Arsenal thrashed Tottenham 4-1 to restore their five-point lead at the top of the Premier League.

After recent dropped points raised doubts about their title push, Mikel Arteta’s side responded emphatically in the north London derby. Eze opened the scoring before Randal Kolo Muani quickly equalised, but Arsenal took control after the break.

Viktor Gyökeres curled home soon after halftime, Eze added another following poor Spurs defending, and Gyökeres sealed the win in stoppage time to secure derby bragging rights.

Arsenal

• Mikel Arteta on Eberechi Eze: ‘He has scored five goals in the last two games against Tottenham, which is extremely difficult to do, but I could see that he wanted to prove something. He was upset, even with me, because I didn’t play him in the other day from the beginning and some of the decisions that I made. And I start to understand how we’re going to get the best out of him now. He had that belief and I’m really happy with him. He’s really trying to mould and adapt into what we want from him.’

• Gary Neville praises Viktor Gyokeres after Tottenham win: ‘It’s the best I’ve seen him for a while. It’s a great moment for him. He’s still got a lot to do when it comes to him – and he hasn’t always been smooth – but it’s a wonderful finish. Gyokeres has had one of his best games for Arsenal, he’s been a real nuisance. It’s the best I’ve seen him in a big game.’

• Alexis Mac Allister reveals what he told Hugo Ekitike moments before scoring the winner. Full Story here!

• Rafael van der Vaart on Mohamed Salah: “When I look at Mohammed Salah and the position he plays on the pitch, he has lost that extra half yard and the pace is gone with age. When you look at Virgil van Dijk, age is less important for a defender. There were games he performed not at his best and everyone writes him off, but over a full season, even at this age, he shows everyone how good he is. Having a big player and a big name (like Salah) is sometimes a problem for both the player and coach.’
