The English premier league yesterday recorded morale boosting wins for Arsenal and Manchester United as they both won on home turf. The most significant win was that of Manchester United with van Gaal unable to win against Swansea since taking over the reins at Old Trafford. Anthony Martial and Wayne Rooney scored the goals against a very dogged Swansea side who fought till the last minute ensuring United's title push suffered no more incongruity.

United played with such swashbuckling especially in the first-half that
the eventual scoreline of 2-1 looked like an unfair scoreline as
Martial, Mata, Young, Schweinsteiger and Wayne Rooney tormented
the Swans defense with so much tempo, pace and tactical foreplay that
Louis van Gaal will surely be proud followings weeks of rumours of
his sack.

Former manager Sir Alex Ferguson was sat in the stands and could
be seen smiling as Old Trafford came alive with such an encouraging
performance.

2-0 while Leicester City and Bournemouth played out a draw.
Manchester City defeated Watford 2-1 while Norwich beat Southampton
by a lone goal.
