Che Adams scored his first Premier League goal in style on Sunday with an audacious 40-yard lob that sailed over the head of a helpless Ederson to give Southampton a 1-0 victory over Manchester City.
Just last week I compiled a list of the best, most quintessential Neil Warnock moments, many of which involved the Englishman spewing profanities at his players, the other team or the refs. But Monday we were exposed to a more wholesome Neil Warnock experience.
The Middlesbrough manager was spotted by fans while biking through town in full 'Boro garb.
Danny Welbeck's spectacular bicycle kick propelled Watford to three vital points in their battle against Premier League relegation as they came from behind to beat Norwich City 2-1 at Vicarage Road on Tuesday.
Former England international Welbeck scored his first league goal for Watford since joining at the start of the season in the 56th minute and it proved the winner as they moved four points clear of the relegation places with four games remaining. It was his first goal since August 2018 when he was still playing for Arsenal.
With West Ham facing a difficult spell of matches in its battle to avoid relegation, manager David Moyes criticized the Premier League and the compressed match schedule dictated by Project Restart.
The Hammers are currently in a stretch of three matches in seven days. This run began with a 2-2 draw at Newcastle on July 5 and is followed by a home match against Burnley on Wednesday and a trip to Norwich on Saturday. Not exactly murderers row.
The sight of Tottenham Hotspur team mates Hugo Lloris and Son Heung-min clashing at halftime during their 1-0 victory over Everton on Monday was "beautiful" and a sign that the team are growing up, manager Jose Mourinho has said.
Goalkeeper Lloris and forward Son had to be held apart by team mates shortly after Everton's Richarlison had gone close to an equaliser, with Lloris clearly angry at Son for not tracking back in the build-up to the chance.
Soccer matches in England have been played in empty stadiums since leagues restarted in June, but that didn't stop a faction of Portsmouth supporters from attending their side's match against Oxford United on Wednesday.

The Christian Pulisic pandemonium has taken full effect with American sports outlets finding literally any excuse to write about him. Is that exactly what you’re reading right now? Perhaps.
The American’s form since the return of football has been out of this world, and frankly, his spotlight in the media and among fans is well deserved. Chelsea fans have voted Pulisic "Man of the Match" in each of the club's four previous victories. He is now being compared to former superstar Eden Hazard, which Pulisic addressed after the Watford match.
Che Adams scored his first goal for Southampton, a year after joining the club, with a stunning long-range strike as they beat Manchester City 1-0 to condemn Pep Guardiola's side to a third successive away loss in the Premier League.
Adams signed for Saints from Birmingham City for a reported $18.72 million in July, 2019, and had failed to score in his previous 24 league appearances for the team.
Liverpool made it 17 wins out of 17 at Anfield after goals by Sadio Mane and Curtis Jones handed the champions a 2-0 win over Aston Villa in the Premier League on Sunday which pushed Dean Smith's side deeper into trouble.
Following their 4-0 mauling at the hands of Manchester City on Thursday, Juergen Klopp's side struggled to break down a determined Villa. Klopp fielded another strong side but with the ground empty and the title already in the bag, there was a lack of edge to Liverpool's play.
Newcastle United twice came back from a goal down as they grabbed a 2-2 Premier League draw with West Ham United on Sunday, robbing the visitors of the chance to put some more daylight between themselves and the relegation zone.
Having lost their previous seven away league games, West Ham started the day three points above the drop zone, and they got off to the perfect start when Michail Antonio opened the scoring after four minutes following a mistake by Jamaal Lascelles.
