Soccer-Premier League talking points

LONDON (Reuters) - Talking points from the Premier League weekend:

SANCHO COMING GOOD AT RIGHT TIME

Jadon Sancho struggled to hold down a first-team spot after joining Manchester United, but after a stellar performance in his side's 4-2 win at Leeds United on Sunday, the England forward is starting to show his worth.

Sancho registered his first Premier League assists since joining United in the close season, setting up Bruno Fernandes for his side's second at Elland Road, before laying on the perfect pass to Fred for the crucial third.

The 21-year-old England international has been involved in four goals in his last five games for United - two goals and two assists - twice as many as in his first 23 appearances for the club.

DIAZ ADDS TO LIVERPOOL'S ATTACKING ARSENAL

Liverpool manager Juergen Klopp was hardly short of offensive options before the club signed winger Luis Diaz from Porto in January, but the Colombian could be set for a key role in the Premier League title battle.

Diaz opened his Liverpool account with a deftly-taken goal to finish off Norwich City on Saturday and appears to have immediately struck a chord with the Anfield fans.

With an ability to carry the ball at pace on the left, Diaz also knows how to finish and offers the prodigious workrate that Klopp demands from front to back.

With Roberto Firmino and Diogo Jota sidelined by injuries, Diaz's arrival looks timely for Liverpool.

EVERTON NEED TO FIX AWAY FORM FAST

New manager Frank Lampard will be mystified by Everton's Jekyll & Hyde performances that have seen them play with swagger and verve at home but be timid and error-prone on the road.

He will acknowledge that Everton are in a relegation battle after Saturday's dismal 2-0 loss to Southampton,
