    Swansea send on Modou Barrow, a Gambian-born striker. My knowledge ends there, I'm afraid. City turn to James Milner. Less than 10 minutes left now.

    Danny Welbeck is fit to start up front and fellow Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud is back early from his broken leg and is on the bench. Mikel Arteta returns to the Gunners midfield in place of Mathieu Flamini.

    Paddy McNair and Tyler Blackett start at centre-back for Manchester United, flanked by Luke Shaw and Antonio Valencia. There is no place for Juan Mata in the starting XI but David De Gea, Angel Di Maria and Michael Carrick are fit.

    Arsenal: Szczesny, Chambers, Mertesacker, Monreal, Gibbs, Arteta, Wilshere, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Ramsey, Alexis, Welbeck

    Man Utd: De Gea, Smalling, McNair, Blackett, Valencia, Carrick, Fellaini, Shaw, Di Maria, Rooney, Van Persie

    The breakthrough! Sammy Ameobi unlocks the QPR defence with a cute pass through, midfielder Moussa Sissoko collects it in before spinning and hammering in a rising drive from 15 yards. Sweet as a nut, right into the top corner! That sends Newcastle fourth as it stands!

    Pards in the Champions League? Give that man a new contract...

    Diego Costa is no stranger to a heavy challenge, and he wears one now from Craig Dawson. Right through the back of Costa, who holds his head in disdain. Send for the physio...

    Got to be! No! Another Bojan cross is flicked on by Peter Crouch, time stands still as it looks certain to either drop in or find Steve Sidwell at the back stick, but it does neither, bouncing safely out of bounds.

    Can Burnley hang on?

    Leon Osman, on his 400th appearance for the Toffees, gives the hosts the lead for the second time this afternoon when he slides home from Samuel Eto'o's perfect cross. Credit to referee Mark Clattenburg, who allowed an advantage in the build-up when Romelu Lukaku was sent sprawling.

    Gylfi Sigurdsson stands over a free-kick 40 yards from goal. He's told where to place the ball by Yaya Toure. Best to do what the big man says, Gylfi. The free-kick is tame and goes wide.

    Luke, Portsmouth: Toure has had more 'monstrous' finishes at City than a WWE Royal Rumble. A true monster of the midfield.

    James: Has anyone noticed that Southampton are still 2nd with a game in hand? Anyone? Still focused on Man City? Great.

  10. GREAT SAVE!published at 16:30 Greenwich Mean Time 22 November 2014

    I have to agree with both our readers and David Pleat. Chelsea have been frustrating this half as they try to walk the ball in. Eden Hazard is the latest culprit, taking too long to get his shot away and eventually forcing Ben Foster into action at his near post. They could have had five or six easily this afternoon.

    Wolves are winless in three and they now trail 2-0 at home to Nottingham Forest after Britt Assombalonga and Matty Fryatt scored in quick succession. Norwich came from behind to lead at home to Brighton, but they lead no more, Kazenga Lua Lua equalising for the visitors in the Championship.

    In League One, Sheffield United have equalised at home to Oldham and Bradford have taken the lead at home to Gillingham.

    Half-time teamtalk of the day is going to go to Russ Wilcox at York if things stay the way they are at Hartlepool. His side were a goal behind to the team that are 23rd in League Two but now lead 3-1. Bottom side Tranmere have pulled a goal back against Southend but still trail 2-1.

    Here comes Frankie Lampard. He's on for Stevan Jovetic. Edin Dzeko, watching on from the stands, is enthusiastically clapping that change.

    "The only criticism you can have of Chelsea today is that sometimes they have tried to create perfect goals. They have tried to walk the ball into the neat, attempting party tricks."

    So close for Leicester. Matty James plays a delightful one-two with Leo Ulloa but can't beat Costel Pantilimon from 12 yards. Can Leicester break their scoring duck? Guess we'll find out soon.
