Perhaps it should not have been surprising that a matchup between the fourth- and sixth-place teams in the Premier League produced an absolute firecracker of a match. Perhaps Bournemouth and Crystal Palace are two really good and, maybe more importantly for the purposes of a neutral, really fun sides, and their Saturday showdown at Selhurst Park was just a perfect clash at a perfect time. Whatever the reasoning, the 3-3 classic was the best game of this young season—and yes, I am including all of the Liverpool last-minute nonsense, including the two matches against these very teams—and a thrilling look England’s upper-midtable, a place where everyone is a tough out and no lead is safe.
