With Chelsea’s insane 4-1 win over Tottenham last week followed by Chelsea’s epic 4-4 draw with Manchester City on Sunday, the Premier League has treated us to some fantastic entertainment recently.

It got us thinking about some of the brilliant matches we’ve seen during the Premier League’s 31-year history, and here our writers pick out their favourites.

Arsenal and Liverpool have played out some classics over the years, but one always stands out for me; the Andrey Arshavin game.

This game had everything. Title implications, a flurry of lead changes, a generational solo performance, dog-pile celebrations. It was Premier League football in its purest form.

Liverpool were closing in on their first ever Premier League title, but Arsenal, led by four goals from Arshavin snatched a 4-4 draw on Merseyside in dramatic circumstances to all but end the Reds’ title hopes.

The north London derby pretty much always delivers, and the 4-4 draw between Arsenal and Tottenham at the Emirates in 2008 is the best match the Premier League has ever seen, in my opinion.

David Bentley opened the scoring with an audacious goal for Spurs, but Arsenal then went 3-1 and then 4-2 up, only for the visitors to somehow claw it back to 4-4 in the dying minutes. Simply brilliant entertainment.

Liverpool’s 4-3 win over Newcastle will never be beaten for sheer drama and entertainment value at the height of 1995/96, when both sides remained in the hunt for the Premier League title.

Defending went out the window at Anfield as the hosts edged past Kevin Keegan’s entertainers in a game for the ages that was settled by Stan Collymore’s memorable 90th-minute strike and, inadvertently, handed Manchester United an upper hand for the title.

London derbies always deliver, but this 2-2 draw between Chelsea and Tottenham in 2016 had plenty of talking points and became known as the ‘Battle of the Bridge’. It even has its own Wikipedia entry!

Spurs had to win their final three matches to win the league, and all was going to plan when Harry Kane and Heung-min Son put the visitors ahead 2-0 at Stamford Bridge. That was until Gary Cahill and Eden Hazard had their say in the second half.

Tempers flared, Moussa DembĂ©lĂ© gouged Diego Costa’s eye, 12 yellows were dished out, Spurs’ title hopes were dashed by their rivals, and a truly deserving Leicester side went on to win the most unexpected Premier League title ever despite 5000-1 odds.
