CHRIS WHEELER: Despite the inherent danger of serious injury or shame, several players love the flamboyant goal celebrations. The knee joint has deteriorated. Bruno Fernandes, the new Premier League star to play it at Old Trafford on Sunday, after scoring an impressive goal for Manchester United from the centre circle in a 2-2 draw with Liverpool. Fernandes stopped two tramlines in the pristine turf as he slid for several yards on his knees and then returned to his feet in a single smooth motion as he turned around to the corner flag. Out of ten, eight out of ten.
MARK CLATTENBURG explains how I was involved in Emmanuel Adebayor's fabled celebration after he scored for Man City against former club Arsenal

MARK CLATTENBURG - EXPERT VIEW: You need to cite September 12, 2009.... That was the day Emmanuel Adebayor sprinted the length of the pitch to salute Arsenal's supporters, who reacted by throwing whatever missiles they could find in the Etihad away end. I cautioned Adebayor for inciting the minor riot, but it's amusing to think that the infamous festival would have occurred if not for what I did not do seconds earlier. Shaun Wright-Phillips had been fouled by Gael Clichy over the right wing. My assistant had screamed for the foul, but I yelled for the advantage to be played.
Arsenal was quick prey for Manchester City, but Mikel Arteta has now complicated their inferiority and instilled some of Pep Guardiola's winning machine's ruthlessness, which has made their decline abundant

MATT BARLOW: This incredibly recent sporting rivalry is best characterized by England football's most well-known knee injury. Emmanuel Adebayor was brilliant in Manchester City's third goal in a 4-2 victory over Arsenal and saw him sprint the length of the Etihad Stadium to goad those in the away end. They had been insulting him about his parentage and ancestry, and Adebayor said he had never regretted it if the time comes back, which is usually at least twice a season. Here we go again, almost 15 years after Arsenal halted a string of 12 consecutive Premier League losses to City with a 1-0 win in October. If Mikel Arteta's side wins again and completes a first Premier League double over City since 2008-09, they will leap four points ahead of the champions. It was still a hero at the Emirates Stadium, and Adebayor scored both goals for Arsenal in a 2-0 win over City in April 2009.

Just days later, Maupay clashed with Manchester City's Kyle Walker when he was accused of making a sarcastic attack on Walker's children, and it could be seen rustling West Ham coach Kevin Nolan on the weekend.

Chelsea's 4-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur had just about everything you could want from a football match.

It was an end to an epic for the neutrals, and it should rank as one of the most bonkers games in the English top flight.

TIM SHERWOOD: Every child at every club needs someone to support him, and I am proud to say that Harry Kane equal Jimmy Greaves' record for Tottenham, despite him being given his opportunity all those years ago. Managers are escalating into clubs with their heads down, and the feeling is that kids will let you down. I've always believed it was a myth. You will not be left out if a £100 million contract. Support him if the kid is doing the right things in training. That's what happened with Harry. He was outperforming Roberto Soldado and Emmanuel Adebayor. He deserved the opportunity, and after getting his first Premier League start in April 2014, a 5-1 win over Sunderland in which he scored - he never looked back.

This is perhaps bizarre, given the fact that both sides of England football have fought each other since 2008, with the first Arsenal vs. Manchester United match in 15 years despite their illustrious pasts and seeming hegemony at the top table.
