Before the Premier League clubs play their Boxing Day fixtures, there was a full slate of Premier Leagues matches played over Gameweek 17 in England with plenty of talking points. There was the Liverpool against Arsenal defensive meltdown, a five goal thriller at Loftus Road, a stalemate at Villa Park and much more.
