"The Premier League at its best."
Defences certainly were not on top as Manchester City and Chelsea played out an epic eight-goal 4-4 thriller where, finally, football was the main talking point.
In recent weeks officials and video assistant referees have taken centre stage but, bar a disputed City penalty which Erling Haaland scored to make it 1-0, it was the players and coaches who made this one.
After Haaland's opener, 39-year-old Thiago Silva became Chelsea's oldest goalscorer and Raheem Sterling netted against his old club.
Manuel Akanji levelled for City just before half-time and Haaland scored just after it - his 49th Premier League goal in his 47th game.
