Chelsea 3-0 Aston Villa

Again Chelsea work the short free kick. No-one is marking Cole Palmer, one touch and then an outstanding finish.
You cannot give a player with that much quality that amount of space.

That is a terrible red card decision against Cairney.
Dominic
Games gone. How is that a red card for Cairney? Roy Keane and Patrick Viera would get sent off every week if they played in today's game. Absolute shocker from VAR. Refereeing is an absolute shambles this season.

I think it's a booking. I don't think it meets the threshold for a sending off.
I don't think Tom Cairney is reckless or out of control. For me, it's a yellow.
Tottenham 1-1 Fulham
It's all going on. Fulham want to make changes, and Marco Silva hauls his whole team over for some tactical advice. Bernd Leno then goes down to allow the changes to take place.
Timothy Castagne and Ryan Sessegnon come on for Alex Iwobi and Emile Smith Rowe for the visitors.
Spurs also bring on Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall for James Maddison and Pape Sarr.
Cole Palmer

Ross Barkley trips Cole Palmer and Chelsea have a free-kick about 30 yards out. It's played out wide to Noni Madueke before the ball lands back at the feet of Palmer on the edge of the box.
He lets fly and Robin Olsen is beaten for power and pace.
Palmer, who has the flag of St Kitts stitched into his boots in honour of his grandfather who is from the island, turns away in celebration.
Tottenham 1-1 Fulham
That was an eventful 20 minutes or so for Tom Cairney.
A superb strike dragged Fulham level but he's now left with them with around eight minutes, plus stoppage time, to see out with 10 men.
Chelsea 2-0 Aston Villa
Villa are about 10 minutes away from a fifth league game without a win. The last time they experienced this sort of form was under Steven Gerrard.
They've managed two attempts on target at Stamford Bridge but they've been a distant second best.
Tottenham 1-1 Fulham
Unsurprisingly, Tom Cairney is now shown a straight red card.
He can't believe it. He's stood there in disbelief.
Marco Silva is raging in his technical area.

Tottenham 1-1 Fulham
That's a nasty one.
Tom Cairney is shown a yellow card after a late tackle on the back of Dejan Kulusevski's Achilles.
However, VAR has advised Darren Bond to go and have another look at the screen.
Man Utd 4-0 Everton
Final change for the visitors now.
Jake O'Brien replaces James Tarkowski, who made that big mistake for the fourth goal.
Tottenham 1-1 Fulham
Fulham have arguably been the better in north London. They've definitely created more chances.
Kenny Tete's latest cross is hacked clear by Ben Davies.
The home fans are getting edgy with about 10 minutes of normal time to go.

How good is Moises Caicedo. He may have had a bit of a slow start (and cost a lot of money) but he’s got to be right up there with the best.

Chelsea 2-0 Aston Villa
Enzo Maresca played down talk Chelsea were in the title race before this game. The Blues certainly look good for a top-four finish as it stands. They're about to make it 11 points from their last five Premier League games.
Man Utd 4-0 Everton

Amad has been two players today, he has been very special. If you're going to note what Amorim wants in his players, then it is all wrote in that number 16 of Manchester United.

Final change for United.
Mason Mount, who Ruben Amorim has been full of praise for so far, comes on for Kobbie Mainoo.
Tottenham 1-1 Fulham
Another change for the visitors.
Rodrigo Muniz replaces Raul Jimenez.
Muniz scored twice in Fulham's win over Spurs at Craven Cottage last season. Could he get a winner here?
Tottenham 1-1 Fulham
James Maddison takes the free-kick, but it is deflected by the wall for a corner.
That is taken short but then the flag goes up for offside. Wasteful.

Tottenham 1-1 Fulham
Spurs have a dangerous free-kick on the edge of the area after James Maddison is fouled.
Maddison, Pedro Porro and Pape Sarr are all stood over it and discussing what they do.

Amad is a sensation. Amorim must surely be pointing at him and telling the other players that his application is the bare minimum. It's about time someone did.
