- West Ham saw their hopes of avoiding the drop improve with a 1-0 win over Southampton while Newcastle leapfrogged stalling Manchester United in the table with a 2-0 victory.
- Pavli joined our usual quartet of LMI'ers in getting a disappointing 6.2 rating from young Uruguayan Facundo Pellistri in the loss to Newcastle.
- Both West Ham wings were taken on the night yet neither contributed to their "defenders only" goal against the Saints. Trevor had the lesser of the two but only just so. Jarrod Bowen finished on a 7.2 rating in the win while Scott's pick Said Benrahma pipped him with a 7.3 for the top score. It is Scott's fourth straight top score in the Pick One.
- Optimally, four of the seven participants could have taken Newcastle skipper Kieran Trippier who assisted on the second Magpies goal of the day to end on an 8.1 rating.
