Manchester City's historic title push gained a significant boost as Manchester City overcame Leicester City 3-0 on Sunday, claiming their ninth straight win in the process.
The win showcased an evolution of Manchester City's mentality, with AndrΓ©e Jeglertz praising the team's professionalism and calmness, saying "I'm very proud and pleased with the patience the players are showing, the trust, the belief. They are not starting to yell at each other, they just keep believing in each other and believing in what we are doing." The team demonstrated a unity that has eluded many of their title hopefuls in recent seasons.
On the other hand, Chelsea's historic 34-game unbeaten run came to an end against Everton. The reigning champions could not make the most of their chances despite having 79% possession and 30 shots on goal, ultimately paying the price six points behind league leaders Manchester City.
Tottenham Hotspur are closing in on a Champions League spot under manager Martin Ho's shake-up, with a stunning 2-1 comeback against Aston Villa securing them just one point short of their total points haul last season. The team has demonstrated a new mentality, with Bethany England saying "It was important to make sure we weren't sulking or accepting a defeat to a team we know we can beat."
West Ham United's struggles with set-pieces continued as they conceded from seven of them in their 10 league games against Manchester United. Manager Marc Skinner was not too downbeat after the defeat, citing improvements made by his side and an attitude among players that shows they are "disappointed not to have come away with anything."
Liverpool's top-flight status is still uncertain despite promising performances under Gareth Taylor. The manager acknowledged the need for signings, stating he would be making compromises on his team's style or philosophy to secure the necessary players.
Finally, Chiamaka Nnadozie continued to impress in goal for Brighton, making five crucial saves to deny London City Lionesses and prove one of the signings of the season.
