Recap

Liverpool were at their unforgiving best on Sunday as the Merseysiders put six past Watford to prove their mettle as title contenders under manager Jurgen Klopp, who will have undoubtedly delighted in the display he witnessed.

Sadio Mane opened the scoring after 27 minutes, while Philippe Coutinho and Emre Can also got in on the action before the break, and Squawka illustrated the Reds' front three impressed in particular:

Roberto Firmino added a fourth after the restart before Mane grabbed his second on the hour mark, and substitute Georginio Wijanldum rounded off the haul in injury time, while Daryl Janmaat added Watford's only goal.

Liverpool scored four or more goals in a Premier League fixture for the fifth time in just 11 outings this term, and former Kop favourite John Arne Riise couldn't help but laud the manager's impact since last year's arrival:

The Merseysiders weren't the only red tide rising, though, after two goals from Zlatan Ibrahimovic helped fire Manchester United to a 3-1 beating of Swansea City, who bagged through a Mike van der Hoorn header.

The match was memorable for the Red Devils considering it brought an end to their four-match winless run in the league, while brace hero Ibrahimovic had an individual accolade to collect:

It was £89 million summer signing Paul Pogba who slammed in United's opening strike after just 15 minutes, however, arrowing a sumptuous half-volley into the top-right corner from just outside Swansea's area.

The Frenchman has shown an affection for long-range attempts even since his days in the United academy, and Squawka provided evidence that aspect of his game is still present today:

At the Emirates Stadium, Harry Kane scored from the penalty spot to snatch a share of the spoils for Tottenham in their trip to face bitter rivals Arsenal, who took the lead on Sunday after a Kevin Wimmer own goal.

The two teams cancelled each other out as the Gunners missed their chance to move to the head of the standings, and OptaJoe showed Spurs manager Mauricio Pochettino is forming a certain knack for these derbies:

Hull and Southampton's geographical distance means they're far from a derby clash, but tensions were nevertheless high at the KCOM Stadium as the Tigers clawed their way to a terrific comeback win.

The Saints couldn't add to their tally after Charlie Austin's sixth-minute penalty, meaning goals from Robert Snodgrass and Michael Dawson in the 61st and 63rd minutes, respectively, rescued manager Mike Phelan's side:

Leicester City dropped to a 2-1 defeat at home to West Brom in Sunday's late fixture, where manager Claudio Ranieri's side conceded twice in the second period to James Morrison and Matt Phillips.

Islam Slimani equalised minutes after Morrison's opener, but a staunch display from manager Tony Pulis' men earned them an extremely valuable three points at the King Power Stadium, where the Foxes succumbed to their fifth loss of the season.
