Breathtaking! What a day in the Premier League! Tottenham Hotspur thrashed Manchester United 6-1 at Old Trafford. This was supposed to make headlines for a few days to come. But Aston Villa had other ideas. At Villa Park, they trounced the champions Liverpool 7-2 in the late game to leave Premier League fans astounded.
After Manchester City were stunned 5-2 by Leicester City last week, this week took it an altogether different level. 41 goals were scored this gameweek with the Foxes themselves at the receiving end of a shock 3-0 defeat to West Ham.
With the crazy Premier League season getting crazier, Twitter was buzzing as usual. Here are some of the best reactions

This is the first time in football history that Liverpool and Man Utd have both let in 6+ goals on the same day.

Watch it. Drink it in. I swear you'll never see anything like this again.
It was a mistake to underestimate the Barclays. https://t.co/myAK10AAKx

In 2004-05, José Mourinho's Chelsea team conceded 15 goals across an entire 38-game Premier League season.

Liverpool and Man Utd have conceded 13 combined... today. pic.twitter.com/kV9lwuVzzB
I've said it before and I'll say it again, Chelsea letting in 15 goals in 2004-05 is the best PL achievement there's been. Hashtag Mou.

6 - Liverpool have conceded six goals in a Premier League game for only the second time, also shipping six in a 6-1 defeat to Stoke in May 2015. Bonkers. #AVLLIV pic.twitter.com/k2jRyGFEzj

3.79 - There have been 144 goals scored in 38 Premier League games this season, an average of 3.79 per game; this is the highest goals per game ratio in an English top-flight season since 1930/31 (3.95 goals per game). Abundance. pic.twitter.com/y69eNBdfkR

Realise the rivalry between Liverpool and Man Utd is intense but this is taking it too far.........

United were embarrassed and Liverpool really said you’ll never walk alone.

Fairplay to Liverpool for helping Man Utd fans suffering from depression. Somethings are bigger than football.

This is going to be the weirdest Premier League season since 2015-16.
