Comments:

League position: 1st Only Liverpool (33 in 1982) had now won more games in a year in the top division than Manchester City had now won in 2021 (32). Raheem Sterling became the 32nd player to score 100 goals in the Premier League. Ederson had now kept a clean sheet in 100 of his 212 appearances for City in all competitions.

Comments:

League position: 8th Wolverhampton Wanderers failed to score in five of their last six games in the Premier League (one in the other). 26 goals had now been scored in Wolves' 16 games in the Premier League so far in 2021-22 (for 12, against 14); fewer than any other team currently in the division. Raúl Jiménez became the first-ever Mexican to be shown a red card in the Premier League.
