Premier League Player of the week: Marc Guehi puts Man City on title charge

The Premier League resumed last weekend after a three‑week break, and several players made an immediate impact in a decisive round of fixtures at both ends of the table. Manchester City thrust themselves firmly back into the title conversation with a commanding three‑nil victory over Chelsea, a match in which Marc Guehi once again underlined his growing influence.

The January arrival produced another assured defensive performance, helping Pep Guardiola’s side keep a clean sheet while also contributing at the other end. Guehi capped his display with a superbly taken goal, receiving the ball inside the penalty area, spinning sharply and driving a precise finish into the bottom corner. His all‑round showing earned him Premier League Player of the Week recognition. City now turn their attention to a potentially decisive clash with Arsenal, a fixture that could play a major role in shaping the outcome of this season’s title race.
