Kevin De Bruyne made his first Premier League start since August in a 3-0 home win against Nottingham Forest on Wednesday night.He clocked 75 minutes, scored a goal and played an important role in the other two of his team, earning himself a much-deserved Man of the Match award.”I am so happy he is back,” said Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola, who grabbed the Belgian and hugged him upon the substitution. “He played 75 fantastic minutes. He deserves the best because he’s a lovely guy and has been massively important for so many years since he arrived.”What else than set-piece artwork, who else than Arsenal!The Cityzens managed to finally put an end to their seven-match winless run and and close the gap to leaders Liverpool to nine points.”It’s been a tough time. We have to accept the challenge and I think we did well today,” said De Bruyne after the Forest tie. “It’s been a tough time. We have to accept the challenge and I think we did well today.”It’s been a hard period but we have to accept the challenge. The Premier League is getting harder and harder and every team is tough to play. Everybody is taking points off everybody. We have to improve. First, we have to try to win games and we’ll see in a couple of months where we are.”Kelleher’s blunder prevents another Liverpool win in a stunning six goals thrillerENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE – MATCHDAY 14TuesdayIpswich – Crystal Palace 0-1 (0-0)/Mateta 59/Leicester – West Ham 3-1 (1-0)/Vardy 2, Khannous 61,Daka 90 – Fullkrug 90+3/WednesdayEverton – Wolverhampton 4-0 (2-0)/Young 10, Mangala 33, Dawson 49 og, 72 og/Man.City – Nott.Forest 3-0 (2-0)/Silva 8, De Bruyne 31, Doku 57/Newcastle – Liverpool 3-3 (1-0)/Isak 35, Gordon 62, Schar 90 – Jones 50, Salah 68, 83/Southampton – Chelsea 1-5 (1-3)/Aribo 11 – Disasi 7, Nkunku 17, Madueke 34, Palmer 76, Sancho 84/Arsenal – Man Utd 2-0 (0-0)/Timber 54, Saliba 73/Aston Villa – Brentford 3-1 (3-0)/Rogers 21, Watkins 28 pen, Cash 34 – Damsgaard 54/Thursday22:30: (2.45) Fulham (3.50) Brighton (3.00)23:15: (2.70) Bournemouth (3.90) Tottenham (2.50)***odds are subject to change***
