The Premier League returned after a three-week hiatus last weekend, with several players standing out in a round of pivotal fixtures at both ends of the table.

Manchester City thrust themselves back into title contention after a thumping 3-0 win over Chelsea in which January signing Marc Guehi continued his superb form for the club.

The England international was vital to Pep Guardiola's side keeping a clean sheet and even got on the scoresheet with a brilliantly taken strike.

Guehi received the ball in Chelsea's penalty area and turned wonderfully before firing an effort into the bottom corner.

Manchester City are next in action against Arsenal in what could be a decisive match in the title race.
