    Charles Kahanji: Everton move to third position, Chelsea drop to 15th. Why should John Stones leave a top four club for a team fighting relegation? 

    Richard J Moir: Begovic, Zouma, Willian, Mikel and Falcao are not players that are going to win Chelsea the league. Or an away game to Everton. 

    Karthik Thangamuthu: Gus Hiddink is available. Just saying, Chelsea.

    Everton 3-1 Chelsea

    Chelsea had 61% of possession but only managed two shots on target at Goodison Park, one in each half. 

    They did have 15 shots at goal but, before people start talking about a fake result, Everton managed 14, with nine on target.

    Everton 3-1 Chelsea

    Everton forward Steven Naismith, speaking to BT Sport: “There was some interest in me on transfer deadline day and it’s always hard when you’re not playing but the manager decided he wanted to keep me. Hopefully I showed my worth today.”

    Everton defender Phil Jagielka, speaking to BT Sport: “John Stones has been supreme all season. There has been a lot of talk about him but all the players have backed him. He’s been playing really well and that shows what kind of character he is.”

    "That result was very unlike Chelsea. Jose won't be going anywhere, but you cannot afford to start the Premier League sluggishly and they have done. They are treading water, or really going backwards. 

    "This is the first time in his Chelsea career that he has been under real, real pressure."

    So, Everton are up to third, for a couple of hours at least, after that win. Chelsea drop two places to 15th and could in theory drop lower. The champions could also find themselves 11 points behind Manchester City if the leaders beat Crystal Palace.

    "What a terrific show by Steven Naismith. He will long remember the day he got three against the champions. And John Stones' performance says so much about his maturity. 

    "Chelsea don't look like their former selves. They were very thin until Nemanja Matic's goal. Jose Mourinho really has to sort this one out very quickly. His first priority? Defence."

    Chelsea lost three times in the Premier League in the whole of last season. They have now lost three of their first five games of this campaign.

    Everton's hat-trick hero Steven Naismith is lucky to avoid a more serious injury after Asmir Begovic comes off his line to collect a high ball into the box. Only seconds left...

    Diego Costa gets his name in Andre Marriner's book, bringing down Ramiro Funes Mori to end a promising run from the Everton new-boy.

    "Chelsea had all the momentum since the beginning of the second half but the point is basically this: the end product is not there. 

    "And more than that, their defence, normally so reliable, is leaking goals. That is why they went for John Stones."

    There will be four minutes of stoppage time at Goodison Park before Chelsea's worst start to a top-flight season since 1986 is confirmed.

    Everton 3-1 Chelsea

    Willian just pings a 40-yard pass straight out of play as he tries to find Eden Hazard. That sort of sums up the way things have gone in attack for Chelsea today. As for their defence... that's been even worse.

    Paul Charles: This Chelsea playing well below par thing is remarkably enjoyable. I don't even care that my Fantasy team is shot. 

    Kyle: I imagine Chelsea fans watching this season are thinking similar things to Manchester United fans two seasons ago.

    Bishal Gyawali: Wonder what excuses Mourinho will come up with today in the post-match interview...

  15. YELLOW CARDpublished at 89 min

    Another yellow card for Andre Marriner to dish out as Cesar Azpilicueta sends Aaron Lennon tumbling. No sign of a late Chelsea fightback - that third goal has finished them off.

  16. YELLOW CARDpublished at 87 min

    Everton 3-1 Chelsea

    John Stones has hardly put a foot wrong in the Everton defence today but he just blotted his copy-book slightly after being shown a yellow card for kicking the ball away as Chelsea try to take a quick free-kick. The home fans react with another chorus of "money can't buy you Stones."

    The Everton fans are chanting "Going down" at their Chelsea counterparts and "You're getting sacked in the morning" at Jose Mourinho. I don't think he can claim this defeat is another "fake result" either.

    "What a substitute eh? Everton's best move of the finish half, in fact their only real move of the second half, is finished by Steven Naismith.

    "Asmir Begovic was a bit too eager coming out towards the edge of his six-yard box, and Naismith, coming in on the angle, hits it home. Hat-trick. The second half has belonged to Chelsea but that should win Everton the points."

    GOAL - Everton 3-1 Chelseapublished at 82 min

    Steven Naismith (82 min - Hat-trick)

    Amazing scenes, especially for Steven John Naismith. Ross Barkley is at the heart of things for this goal, driving at the Chelsea defence, but it is Naismith who finishes things off, picking up Barkley's precise pass, taking a touch and sliding the ball past Asmir Begovic to complete his hat-trick. Game over? It looks that way.

    Everton 2-1 Chelsea

    Chelsea are running into a line of Everton defenders every time they get near the edge of the Everton box. The visitors keep forcing corners - surely one of them will lead to something?
