    Everton 0-3 Man Utd

    Manchester United are not quite happy with just the 3-0 lead as substitute Jesse Lingard gets the chance to stretch his legs, racing away down the right before delivering a teasing cross that has to be nodded behind for a corner by an Everton defender, with Ander Herrara lurking.

    "Everton can't string much together, no matter how hard they try. They have played better in this second half but in midfield they have been caught out today."

    Man City 4-1 Bournemouth

    It's petering out at the Etihad, where the Manchester City fans are pulling the legs of the Bournemouth travelling support. Something along the lines of asking them where were they when the Cherries were not as good as they are now.

    Crystal Palace 1-1 West Ham

    Despite playing this second half with 10 men, Crystal Palace are keeping West Ham at bay and look to be on course for a well-earned point. 

    Andy Carroll sums up the Hammers' frustrations at being unable to regain the lead as he smashes a shot over from outside the area.

    Mr Lamide: This is the first time LvG has been brave with his line up and subs. This is our best away performance under him.

    Andrew Wilson: Rooney's goal papers over another poor personal performance. Gives the ball away too much.

    KN: Give Rooney a break. He's played in so many positions since LvG took over.

    Southampton 2-1 Leicester

    Leicester, by the way, have got six points from losing positions this season. They have scored in every league game of the campaign, with Jamie Vardy scoring in each of his last six. And that's your ha-trick of stats.

    Matt Tubbs has scored his sixth goal of the season to give second-placed Portsmouth a 1-0 lead at bottom club Newport.

    Accrington dominated the first half at Plymouth but the leaders now lead 1-0 thanks to a cracker from Ruben Reid.  

    Barry Corr is another in-form striker with a seventh goal in seven games for Cambridge helping the U's lead 2-1 against Northampton.

    Barnet lead 1-0 against fellow strugglers York thanks to John Akinde, while Oxford are down to 10 men following the dismissal of Jordan Graham and now lead Leyton Orient only 2-1.

    Notts County look set to end their poor run as they lead struggling Yeovil 2-0.

    West Brom 1-0 Sunderland

    Time is running out for Sunderland, and for Sam Allardyce if he is to kick off his reign with a win. Twenty minutes left and Sunderland are not creating enough, so on comes Jermain Defoe for Jordi Gomez.

    Will Moores: Villa need to get relegated, get some new owners and just start again...

    "That is some header. Leicester seem to be so dangerous in the second half of games, Nathan Dyer turned Virgil van Dijk inside out on the wing, and Jamie Vardy reached the cross at its highest point and really powered home."  

  11. City trying to play through the Cherries defencepublished at 16:28

    Man City 4-1 Bournemouth

    A glance at the graphic below showing how Manchester City have used the flanks when they have attacked so far in this game might make you think that crossing has been a big part of their gameplan today.

    But in fact, City have only played five crosses in open play, all from the left, and none of them have found their target (see red arrows in graphic below). City even played their one corner of the game short (see green arrow) and when they get near the Cherries area they try to pass through the visitors' defence instead.

    Bournemouth, in contrast, have fired cross after cross into the City box - usually unsuccessfully (see red arrows below). They have had only three shots in total, and Glenn Murray's goal was their only effort on target.

    Chelsea 2-0 Aston Villa

    I think we can safely say this one is in the bag for Chelsea now. There's no attacking threat from Aston Villa, who look like they're a Pakistan bowler trying to get Alastair Cook out. It's just not going to happen any time soon.

    Wayne Rooney is a man on a mission now. He embarks on a lung-busting run to race from the left and into the area, he tries to clip the ball over Tim Howard, but the Everton keeper does enough to prevent the ball from rolling into the net.

    Jamie Vardy (66 mins)

    Nice from Leicester. Very nice.

    Nathan Dyer gets the ball on the right and takes on the Southampton full-backs before standing up the perfect cross for Jamie Vardy to nod home at the end of a well-timed run. Sometimes football can be beautifully simple.

    Man City 4-1 Bournemouth

    It's interesting that Raheem Sterling is now playing as a conventional number nine - ready to get on the end of anything City's 'number 10' (Wilfried Bony) can flick on/play in.

    "Everton were caught on the break, but give United credit. They played the ball through, Rooney ran onto it and we were right behind his shot. Howard came out quickly but Rooney got enough on the ball to put it in. 

    "After a bright start, Everton are out of this now. They have been punished by United."

    Another chance for Raheem Sterling, who pokes wide after good work from Wilfried Bony - the striker attracting the attention of five players before playing the ball into the box.

    Andre Gray continues to pay back his record transfer fee with another goal for Burnley as they lead Bolton 1-0.

    It's a third goal in six games for the former Brentford striker, who follows up a Scott Arfield shot to slot home.

    Joe Mattock's long-range strike has levelled for Rotherham at Brentford as Neil Redfearn looks to lift the Millers out of the bottom three in his first game in charge.
