Premier League: 10 talking points from the weekend’s action
There are few clubs in the premier league with mood swings as dramatic as Tottenham’s right now. A week ago they joyously outplayed leaders Manchester City, then a 1-0 loss to 18th-placed Burnley prompted a seething Antonio Conte to openly question his own future. Now, after battering a broken Leeds 4-0 at Elland Road, the good vibes are back. Son Heung-min and Harry Kane are now firmly in the record books as the most prolific pairing of all time, creating 37 goals together and counting. Kane has returned to seriously good form. Dejan Kulusevski has settled in at warp speed. Conte’s frustrations may well surface again soon, but a turbulent week at least ended on a positive note. Tumaini Carayol
Match report: Leeds 0-4 Tottenham
Marcelo Bielsa has never stayed at a club as long as the thoroughly transformative three and a half years he spent at Leeds and that Elland Road tenure, which ended in his sacking on Sunday, will never be forgotten in West Yorkshire. It is hard to overstate Bielsa’s impact on Leeds but even he struggled when the spine of his side was removed by the injuries that have sidelined Patrick Bamford, Kalvin Phillips and Liam Cooper for much of this season. If the incoming manager, Jesse Marsch is to avoid relegation he needs that trio restored to fitness on schedule this spring, not to mention devise a way of modifying the aggressive high-pressing style that terrified opponents last season. Harry Kane and his Tottenham teammates triumphed far too easily on Saturday, their 4-0 win prefacing one of English football’s saddest exits. Louise Taylor
