  2. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 14:17 Greenwich Mean Time 1 December 2024

    Tottenham 0-0 Fulham

    Tottenham's turn to hit the woodwork, and this is almost brilliant from James Maddison.

    He's stood over a free-kick, a couple of yards outside the area, after Timo Werner is felled.

    Maddison waits for the wall to jump and sends it under them, but it clips the base of the post.

    Zirkzee scoring, Villa looking a terrible team. What a mad day in the Premier League, what's next? A City win!

    Alex Iwobi is so unlucky. It was a really good move from Fulham.

    Iwobi has tried to side foot it into the corner and he's so, so close.

    It really feels like Fulham should be ahead in his game.

    Alex Iwobi finds space in the right channel but his effort crashes back off the bar.

    Marco Silva is growing increasingly frustrated on the touchline.

    Finally Manchester United are showing some decent finishing. It's a different look United now and it has all come from that first goal. They are cruising.

    That goal will do wonders to the confidence of the much-maligned summer signing Joshua Zirkzee.

    Already written off by large parts of the fanbase, the Dutchman repays Ruben Amorim's faith with a goal.

    Jon Evans on X: Got to say, Villa look horrendous. What's going on? So disjointed all over the park. Failing in the basics. The things they did so well last season seem to have gone completely.

  9. Chants of 'oooh Enzo Fernandez' after sensational volleypublished at 14:12 Greenwich Mean Time 1 December 2024

    Enzo Fernandez is beginning to gain acclaim after long struggling to live up to his £107million price tag.

    A sensational left foot touch and right foot volley has sent Stamford Bridge into delirium as the supporters respond with chants of "oh Enzo Fernandez".

    That is the Argentine's second goal in as many matches and, having also picked up an assist just before the international break, there are signs that he is ready to show his worth.

    Joshua Zirkzee

    Joshua Zirkzee is going to get the goal, but Amad Diallo creates this.

    He puts Jarrad Branthwaite under pressure with the press and is able to win the ball back.

    It breaks for Bruno Fernandes who runs into the area and squares for Zirkzee. The pass looks a little overhit but Zirkzee is able to fire it home with his left foot.

    "United, United, United" chant the home fans.

    Aston Villa are all over the place. I sense it could be a long rest of the season with a mid-table finish. Hopefully a decent run in the Champions League will soften the blow.

    Marc, Villa fan

    Villa are an absolute shambles at the back and have been all season. We have no chance in Europe this year.

    That's a well worked short corner and James Maddison whips it in.

    Radu Dragusin is able to generate power in his header.

    Bernd Leno had to be on his toes there.

    What's gone wrong at Aston Villa?

    Honestly, they look a shadow of the team that beat Bayern Munich a couple of months ago.

    United look a bit lost for ideas when they get into the final third of the pitch.

    It's all very timid and ponderous, no real pattern about what they are going to do with the ball.

    Plenty for Ruben Amorim to work on on the training pitch to get this Red Devils side firing.

    This is getting lively now.

    Radu Dragusin climbs highest in the Fulham area and powers a header towards the roof of the net, but Bernd Leno is able to push over.

    Another superb stop.

    That should give Man United a lift. They have been second-best but are they now confident enough to say "let's control this game" like they were in the first 5/10 minutes?

  19. GREAT SAVE!published at 14:06 Greenwich Mean Time 1 December 2024

    Brilliant from Fraser Forster.

    A cross from deep on the right finds an unmarked Raul Jimenez in the middle of the Tottenham area.

    He steers towards goal but Forster is down quickly to palm away with his right hand.

    Excellent stop.

    That's a cracking finish!

    Chelsea take a firm grip after Cole Palmer finds Enzo Fernandez who produces a little flick before smashing it past Emi Martinez.

    Villa have been dicing with danger all game - and now they have a mountain to climb.
