I wouldn't say it was a wet day but there's a chap in the away end wearing just speedos and a swimming cap. Honestly!

West Ham striker Andy Carroll told BBC Sport: "We’ve got a great atmosphere at the training ground. It’s fantastic to be a part of. He’s a top manager – he analyses the opposition and then tells us how to beat them. 

"We thought we could beat them today. It wasn’t about Chelsea, it was about us. We’ve had some great wins this season and hopefully we’ll carry on. The way we’re going, we’ve got a right shot at it [a high finish]. I don’t see why not."

Former Everton winger Ronnie Goodlass: "Arsenal have had a lot of possession but Everton are starting to grow into the game. The Everton midfielders are beginning to put their foot on the ball a bit more."

West Ham boss Slaven Bilic feels Andy Carroll could remain injury free after they did not rush him back.

“We changed the schedule and philosophy and the way of training," he told BBC Sport. 

"He always used to come back after five or six weeks of training but it doesn’t help him. He goes running into the box and fighting with people. Now he was training hard for six to eight weeks and came back in the team gradually. 

"It’s impossible to mark him in the box. His quality was never in question. If he’s in good shape now we have a good chance that he will be injury free for a long time. In that case West Ham and England will benefit from that a lot."

Daniel: Sherwood never had any tactics but was brought in to fire the players up now, he can't do that anymore. He has to go.

Met Steinberg: Sherwood blames the players again, yet he's the one picking them. He won't take responsibility for his actions. Has to go.

Original narrator: Thought Mourinho reiterated the importance of "mental discipline" at derbies. Someone should tell him about that.

Arsenal shading the opening stages but no real chances to speak of.

Mike Hall: What are the odds on Jose Mourinho resigning tonight? He realises that his reputation is being destroyed this season.

 Anj: I do get annoyed with this Mourinho tactic of it always being someone else's fault. It's coming across like he's a sore loser.

Ronan: Credit to Chelsea who showed spirit after going down to 10-men. It's easy to lose confidence when you're battling relegation.

Aston Villa

Aston Villa defender Alan Hutton: "Everyone is behind the manager 100%. We need to turn this around. We're behind him and everyone is pushing in the same way. 

"We're working hard and training hard and hopefully we'll improve. We want to do well. There's no easy games and we know what we have to do."

Tim in Devon: It's hard to feel anything but satisfaction at Chelsea's implosion. Owner, manager, captain and more than a few fans are downright unpleasant, and every blow landed on them feels like a lovely warm happy bath to me. I hope it continues!

Any Chelsea fans want to disagree with that?

Stoke manager Mark Hughes asked if that was one of the worst of his 100 games in charge of Stoke:

"It wasn't one of my best. Losing defender Geoff Cameron to injury disrupted us. We had to make changes at the back. We didn't deal with the two up front. We needed to be better than we were today. 

"Their two guys up front [Troy Deeney and Odion Ighalo] demand service and they managed to mess us around at the back. We will be better than that. At 1-0 down we tried to change things around because we couldn't make any headway. We then made an individual error when Marc Wilson lost the ball leading up to the second goal."

Under way at the Emirates!

Slaven Bilic is facing the TV cameras after his side's win but we have not seen any sight of a member of the Chelsea staff yet. The word is we won't be seeing anyone either.

The teams are out at a rainy and windy Emirates...

Leicester manager Claudio Ranieri: "It was a tough match, a battle for us, they are stronger than us. We battled well and deserved to win. We are taking it step-by step. It's important to achieve 40 points, that is our first goal. 

"Jamie (Vardy) is fantastic because every ball could be good for him. The spirit is fantastic and is one of our strengths, we never give up and continue to fight.

"It was a more Italian than English match apart from the last 10 minutes.

"I took the ball because it was our ball. Maybe now I meet Alan Pardew in my dressing room."

Chelsea defender Gary Cahill told BBC Sport: "[The mood in the dressing room] is not great - like you’d imagine when you lose games. Last season we weren’t used to it. The lads are devastated. 

"You’re left scratching your head sometimes. In the first half the Cesc Fabregas goal could have been given and we had the goal that was nearly over the line. That sums up the way we’re going. 

"And then we’ve got the sending off. Originally we played on – we thought the referee had played on. Maybe the assistant called it back, I’m not sure sure what’s happened there. We’ve not had the rub of the green but we’re not feeling sorry for ourselves. We have to work hard to turn this round.

"Not many words are being said at the moment. I’m sure we’ll reflect in next day or so. We worked really hard at 10 men and had the majority of the play in the second half. It’s a summary of our season at the minute."

Watford manager Quique Sanchez Flores talking to BBC Sport: "We tried to play very well. The performance was the main thing. We tried to play with high confidence - it was tough against a Stoke side who came into the match having won the last three.

"After we scored we tried to keep playing a high line. We worked really hard. The balance was amazing between defence and offence.

On striker Troy Deeney getting his first league goal of the season:

"I wasn't worried about the display of Deeney. He has been unlucky so far. Scoring is important for the confidence of strikers. I'm happy for the victory and performance, and happy for the fans."

Tim Sherwood sounded very glum in that interview, he then went on to give monosyllabic answers to the poor guy from Sky Sports.

If you're Tim Sherwood's dog, and you're reading this, time to hide under the sofa.
