LIVERPOOL, England, Dec 20 (Reuters) - Arsenal ensured that they will spend Christmas top of the Premier League thanks to a 1-0 away win over Everton on Saturday, retaking first place after briefly being deposed by Manchester City, who beat West Ham United 3-0 earlier in the day.

A game of blocks and buffeting challenges, flashes of guile interlaced with much more gusto, was defined by two penalty reviews. VAR Michael Salisbury rightly identified Jake O’Brien’s obvious handball to give the spot kick which Gyökeres converted, yet William Saliba somehow escaped punishment for a stray swipe of Thierno Barry in the second half.

A move to Everton could be the ideal move to get him back on track. Playing under Moyes, who described him as an 'excellent player' during their time together at West Ham, in a side who are in the top half of the Premier League will offer him the platform to show his talent once again and perhaps earn him a permanent move from Man City.

The Everton forward was clearly first to the ball, though the officials deemed Saliba’s challenge to have ‘insufficient contact’. Former Everton captain Hutchison disagrees, insisting it was a ‘stone wall pen’.

It has been an exciting year for Everton FC player Jake O'Brien and his partner Sophie Lawlor. The couple have had plenty to celebrate throughout 2025 including the birth of their first child, and the celebrations continue as Sophie celebrated her birthday days before Christmas.
