The absence of Darragh-like conditions meant we were treated to a full slate of Premier League action over the weekend.
However, storm clouds were cast over Molineux and St. Mary's in the wake of Wolves' defeat to Ipswich Town and Southampton's Sunday evening humiliation. Both Gary O'Neil and Russell Martin are now out of their respective jobs, with Wolves turning to Jorge Mendes in their hope of finding a suitable successor for O'Neil.
Much of the discourse surrounding the weekend's action focused on Sunday's Manchester Derby between two vulnerable units. A tepid affair was brought to life in the closing stages thanks to an under-hit Matheus Nunes back pass, and it was the man who capitalised on Nunes' error who highlights 90min's seven leading lights of Premier League Gameweek 16.
