Can Chelsea apply the pressure on Manchester City and move ten-points clear

The Blues produced one of the displays of the season on the opening weekend of this season as they fought back from a goal down to win 3-1 at Turf Moor.

Having escaped from the Parc des Princes still in their Champions League last-16 tie with PSG, Chelsea’s attention  turns to taking a step closer to their first Premier League in five years with victory over Burnley.
Back then, few gave Burnley any hope of surviving in the league full of European football heavyweights, but Sean Dyche’s side have flourished as the season has progressed.
However, if the copy book is to follow suit once again, Manchester City will surely come under the spotlight against Newcastle, and they will simply have to win.

Hull City Manager chides Tottenham's Jan Vertonghen following Spurs' 2-1 win

Following Spurs' 2-1 win over Hull City, City manager Steve Bruce lashed out at Tottenham's Jan Vertonghen for exaggerating to get Hull City's Ramirez Gaston red-carded. Bruce castigated such act as unhealthy for the Premier League. The Uruguayan midfielder Ramirez got the red card for kicking at Belgian Jan Vertonghen. Bruce argued his man only showed "petulance" when he was provoked by Jan. And such behaviour could not be regarded as "violent". The City went down when Tottenham's Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen found the net in the game's second half. Speaking with his news conference, Bruce said, "Ramirez has shown petulance. Vertonghen has had a little go at him, and Ramirez has flicked out. The law says it is a violent conduct. For me, it is an act of petulance -- it is not violent conduct." Via espn
