    Manchester United

    Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford talking to Sky Sports: "It is a nice result. It is important with a new coach and a new play of playing, when we are still learning. We have to back up this performance and win in midweek.

    "We all, as individuals, want to get back to our best and then push to improve so even in the bad moments you are doing the right thing.

    "The connection is going to build and grow the more we get used to him. He's [Ruben Amorim] come in in a busy period and hopefully the connection keeps building and growing. He's come in with a great attitude and it's passed onto the players.

    "The atmosphere is one of the most special things about his club and playing at this great stadium is always a great feeling.

    "It is early on but I feel energised and ready for the next game. This game has only just finished but the next one is always the focus for the players."

    Man United were a joy to watch in that second half and it was easy for them. There were two or three fabulous performances and what you are seeing is what you want if you are a Manchester United fan. You are seeing an improvement from every single player. The performances are getting better and the belief is rising.

    Rob Millward on X: Most complete performance of the season so far and a real statement from Chelsea. Controlled, free flowing... Maresca doing wonders with a massive team. Lavia and Caicedo outstanding as a pairing.

    All over. The points are shared.

    Hard to argue that Fulham deserve that to be honest.

    Chelsea 3-0 Aston Villa

    Chelsea have an identical record to second-placed Arsenal. Same points, same goals scored and conceded. Arsenal stay ahead for now because of away goals scored in the head-to-head game which ended 1-1 at Stamford Bridge on 10 November.

    Tottenham 1-1 Fulham

    Tottenham haven't drawn at home in 27 Premier League games. It is a league record.

    Is that run about to end?

  10. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 15:25 Greenwich Mean Time 1 December 2024

    Tottenham 1-1 Fulham

    Ah, the substitute is going off.

    It is injury related, though, with Archie Gray hobbling off.

    Will Lankshear, the 19-year-old English striker, comes on for his Premier League debut.

    Son Heung-min gets to the byline but his left-footed cross is comfortably held by Bernd Leno.

    Villa have Brentford, Saints and Forest up next. All winnable. They could still be top six by Christmas. Looking leggy and short of confidence, but start Barkley and Duran next and we'll be fine.

    This has been a really poor Aston Villa performance. They haven't got much time to get over this. They're at home to Brentford on Wednesday.

    Almost 4-0!

    Joao Felix forces a save from Robin Olsen before Noni Madueke's follow-up is just about kept out.

    Aston Villa cannot wait for the final whistle.

  16. CLOSE!published at 15:20 Greenwich Mean Time 1 December 2024

    Tottenham 1-1 Fulham

    It's Fulham who are pressing for that winner at the moment.

    Harry Wilson does supberly down the right and gets past Ben Davies. He crosses across the six-yard box and Radu Dragusin has to slice behind for a corner.

    The set piece comes to nothing.
