as before<\/p>\n<p>But Maddison was speaking in such terms to make the point that Ange Postecoglou&#8217;s Spurs aren&#8217;t &#8216;Spursy&#8217; at all.<\/p>\n<p>The way they twice fought back to draw 2-2 at the Emirates Stadium &#8211; in the case of Son Heung-min&#8217;s second goal, a mere 23 seconds after the restart after conceding &#8211; suggests a greater steel, more backbone.<\/p>\n<p>Under their Australian boss, Spurs have also come from behind at Brentford to draw, come from behind at Burnley to win emphatically and scored twice deep into stoppage time to beat Sheffield United.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I think the last couple of weeks shows we might be going in a slightly different direction,&#8217; added Maddison.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;We go behind twice at arguably one of the best teams in the world, we pull it back and we&#8217;re still fighting to the end.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>A bit more of this and &#8216;Spursy&#8217; Spurs will be the punchline no longer.<\/p>\n<p><span>Chelsea look lost ahead of unforgiving run<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Chelsea averaged just a goal a game in last season&#8217;s Premier League and after a third scoreless outing in Sunday&#8217;s 1-0 defeat at home against Aston Villa, things don&#8217;t appear to have improved.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s now 13 league games this calendar year in which they&#8217;ve failed to find the net &#8211; their Premier League record is 14, in 1995 &#8211; and the Blues&#8217; overall league record in this annus horribilis is a miserable five wins, nine draws and 13 losses.<\/p>\n<p>Mauricio Pochettino&#8217;s side are 14th, which is recoverable given how early we are in the season &#8211; especially when they get some injured players back.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/25\/18\/75808623-12557825-Mauricio_Pochettino_is_already_under_pressure_and_Chelsea_have_s-a-9_1695662454916.jpg\" height=\"606\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Mauricio Pochettino is already under pressure and Chelsea have some tough games ahead<\/p>\n<p>But the lack of potency in front of goal and the lack of any discernible identity is of serious concern. Quite simply, teams such as Villa now expect to go to Stamford Bridge and pick up a result.<\/p>\n<p>Fair enough, Villa owed their keeper Emiliano Martinez for making one-on-one saves to deny Nicolas Jackson and Raheem Sterling prior to Malo Gusto&#8217;s sending off, but Villa might have scored more goals too.<\/p>\n<p>Worrying for Pochettino, it isn&#8217;t about to get any easier. Before early December, Chelsea have to face Arsenal, Tottenham, Man City, Newcastle, Brighton and Manchester United.<\/p>\n<p>This could easily get a whole lot worse before it gets better.<\/p>\n<p><span>Hannibal an unlikely saviour for Man United<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Like Chelsea, there&#8217;s no discernible style about Manchester United, who are also plagued by injuries and seemingly surviving match-to-match.<\/p>\n<p>They did at least pick up a much-needed win at Burnley, but it was a long way from being either comfortable or convincing.<\/p>\n<p>The most surprising aspect of that was the masterclass produced by 35-year-old Jonny Evans, but almost as remarkable was the latest start given to forgotten man Hannibal Mejbri.<\/p>\n<p>The Tunisian came off the bench and scored in the defeat by Brighton, his delight at a first United goal rather out of context given they were 3-1 down, to earn a start at Turf Moor.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/25\/18\/75808627-12557825-Hannibal_Mejbri_came_into_the_Manchester_United_line_up_and_perf-a-10_1695662454917.jpg\" height=\"425\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Hannibal Mejbri came into the Manchester United line-up and performed well at Burnley<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/25\/18\/75808629-12557825-The_Tunisian_midfielder_could_well_prove_useful_to_Erik_ten_Hag_-a-11_1695662454917.jpg\" height=\"425\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The Tunisian midfielder could well prove useful to Erik ten Hag amid a pile-up of injuries<\/p>\n<p>And Hannibal performed pretty well alongside United&#8217;s best performer and match-winner Bruno Fernandes.<\/p>\n<p>The 20-year-old clearly learned a good amount from his loan spell at Birmingham City last season, when he performed consistently enough in an under-performing Championship team.<\/p>\n<p>But nobody expected him to be starting for United this season and it could be seen as a damning indictment of their desperate lack of squad depth and Erik ten Hag running out of ideas.<\/p>\n<p>Or the youngster may be up to the challenge. Time will tell us.<\/p>\n<p><span>It&#8217;s now-or-never for Phillips at Man City<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Rodri is an outstanding midfielder but he&#8217;s also adept at sweet-talking himself out of second yellow cards. Maybe it&#8217;s his puppy-dog eyes or the sincere hand-on-heart routine to referees.<\/p>\n<p>But after he wrapped his hands around Morgan Gibbs-White&#8217;s throat in Manchester City&#8217;s 2-0 win over Nottingham Forest, even the &#8216;butter wouldn&#8217;t melt&#8217; act couldn&#8217;t avoid a red and a three-match ban.<\/p>\n<p>This is significant. Rodri will now miss matches against Newcastle United in the Carabao Cup, Wolves in the league and, most significantly, the clash with Arsenal on October 8.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/25\/18\/75808805-12557825-Rodri_was_sent_off_for_grabbing_Morgan_Gibbs_White_by_the_throat-a-12_1695662454918.jpg\" height=\"359\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Rodri was sent off for grabbing Morgan Gibbs-White by the throat in Man City&#8217;s win over Forest<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/25\/18\/75808835-12557825-Kalvin_Phillips_must_take_the_opportunities_that_may_now_come_hi-a-3_1695662454900.jpg\" height=\"425\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Kalvin Phillips must take the opportunities that may now come his way in Rodri&#8217;s absence<\/p>\n<p>No wonder Pep Guardiola was annoyed with him &#8211; City&#8217;s win percentage slumps from 74 to 64 when Rodri is absent.<\/p>\n<p>With Mateo Kovacic only just back in training and John Stones also sidelined, Guardiola may be forced to play Kalvin Phillips.<\/p>\n<p>The England man came off the bench on Saturday just after Rodri&#8217;s red to take his City game time to a grand total of 645 minutes since he arrived from Leeds for \u00a342million in July 2022.<\/p>\n<p>The opportunity is there for Phillips to finally show Guardiola what he can do and, if he isn&#8217;t picked in these circumstances, he really may as well move in January.<\/p>\n<p><span>No sign Saudi speculation has distracted Salah<\/span><\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;d forgive Mohamed Salah for starting the season slowly after all that speculation over a \u00a3200million-plus move to Al-Ittihad in Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, the Egyptian is in exceptional form with four goals and four assists in seven outings, as if to prove his commitment to Liverpool.<\/p>\n<p>Salah&#8217;s blistering start makes him only the fifth player to either score or assist a goal in his team&#8217;s first six Premier League matches in a season.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/25\/18\/75808611-12557825-Mohamed_Salah_celebrates_with_Diogo_Jota_after_scoring_a_penalty-a-2_1695662454899.jpg\" height=\"425\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Mohamed Salah celebrates with Diogo Jota after scoring a penalty against West Ham<\/p>\n<p>He&#8217;s in some cracking company, too, alongside David Beckham (Man United 2000-01), Thierry Henry (Arsenal 2004-05), Sergio Aguero (Man City 2019-20) and Erling Haaland (Man City 2022-23).<\/p>\n<p>Salah also scored in Liverpool&#8217;s 3-1 win over Austrians LASK in the Europa League last week.<\/p>\n<p>All the focus after Liverpool beat West Ham by that same scoreline on Sunday was on Darwin Nunez after his acrobatic volley but Salah, who converted a first-half penalty, just keeps motoring on.<\/p>\n<p>The Saudi speculation simply swirls around him when there&#8217;s a job to be done.<\/p>\n<p><span>Time surely up for Heckingbottom after 8-0 thrashing<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Chris Wilder was being linked with a return to the Sheffield United dug-out even before the Blades were battered 8-0 by Newcastle on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>Paul Heckingbottom is very much on borrowed time if they&#8217;re to make a decent fist of it in the Premier League this season.<\/p>\n<p>He described the performance as &#8216;unacceptable&#8217; but could only flat bat post-match questions about his future in the job.<\/p>\n<p>United sit bottom of the top-flight table again but let&#8217;s not forget they were also in that position when Heckingbottom replaced Wilder to pick up the pieces in March 2021.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/25\/18\/75808865-12557825-The_writing_is_surely_on_the_wall_for_Paul_Heckingbottom_after_t-a-4_1695662454901.jpg\" height=\"425\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The writing is surely on the wall for Paul Heckingbottom after the Blades were thrashed 8-0<\/p>\n<p>When the experiment with Slavisa Jokanovic failed, it was Heckingbottom who turned the 2021-22 season around and took the Blades to the play-offs.
