5. L: Sheffield United
The Blades lost 2-0 to Wolves at Bramall Lane and with Lys Mousset now out injured, the need for a striker has arguably increased a little. Liverpool’s Rhian Brewster continues to be heavily linked - but will Chris Wilder get his man? Photo: PETER POWELL
6. W: Mo Salah
Salah paid tribute to Egyptian teammate Moamen Zakaria after he was diagnosed with ALS. The forward mimicked his celebration (see photo) after completing his hat-trick from the penalty spot in the 4-3 win against Leeds United. Photo: Shaun Botterill
7. L: Mark Noble

8. W: Leeds United
Marcelo Bielsa’s men fell just short at Liverpool but that didn’t leave them short of admirers. Both Jurgen Klopp and Virgin Van Dijk hailed Leeds after the game, as well as earning praise from a number of pundits. Photo: Pool
