fayemi olamide LMD: Good to see Joe Hart,Jack Butland and Fraser Forster all playing well and fit, if nothing England has good goalies!!!

A scare for the Baggies when Carles Gil shows neat footwork to evade his marker and dink the ball to the back stick where Craig Dawson is waiting to head behind for a corner.

There has been no sign of Jermain Defoe in the Sunderland attack as of yet - it's been all Bournemouth to be honest. Sunderland have been abject. 

Our man keeping a closer eye on events at OT than us two says it's pretty dull fayre being dished up.

To underline how common this has become, I just checked our spelling of 'fayre' on a search engine. The first thing which came up? A Manchester United story with a headline of 'Turgid, dull fayre'.

Can West Brom do the double over Villa for the first time in the top flight since the 1964-65 season?

Jamie Vardy maybe needs a goal to get him going again and he is close here. hitting a shot powerfully on the turn but it's straight at Jack Butland. Safe hands. 

Watford should be ahead! It's a great double save though from Rob Elliot, who first palms out a Troy Deeney shot and then reacts superbly to claw out Etienne Capoue's follow-up.

Former Spurs striker on Final Score

"He got a good hand to the header and I would have thought he would have kept it out.

"It was brave, good movement, but he should have done better."

Tottenham are bossing this game - Harry Kane having a low cross into the box blocked by the keeper and then Toby Alderweireld heads wide from a corner. Got to make this dominance count.

Now then, a young lad has been sent round the pitch to collect all the towels from the ballboys.

Apparently, the two teams hadn't agreed to the use of them and Stoke were not happy for Leicester to take advantage by drying their hands and the ball.

You can see how far Stoke have come from the Rory Delap days...

Defences on top. Villa centre-half Jonas Okore bundles Salomon Rondon out of the way as they chase a long ball, before Albion stopper Gareth McAuley dishes out the same punishment to Libor Kozak at the other end.

Villa are shading possession, but can't make any inroads yet.

Rolando Aarons is a box of tricks and he's been busy so far for Newcastle. He gets into a great area down the left but can't decide between a shot or a cross and serves up neither in the end.

Watford yet to get going. 

Norwich boss Alex Neil, speaking to BBC Sport: "We made it far too easy for Liverpool to get up the pitch and put the ball in the back of the net. That has been our downfall.

"We were well set up and if anything throughout the game I thought we were the better side but when you concede five goals you deserve to lose the game."

He's worth every penny, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise! Benik Afobe heads Bournemouth ahead after a great early cross from Junior Stanislas found him in space. Vito Mannone got a big hand on the ball but couldn't keep it out...

Ten out of ten for optimism, Daley.

Daley Blind has a dig from 40 yards, maybe more, but it's straight at Fraser Forster. Good to see the big man back for the Saints, by the way.

Newcastle on top, snappy in the tackle with Jonjo Shelvey leading the charge. Shelvey was excellent on his debut last week and looks good again here.

Benik Afobe, Bournemouth's latest jet-heeled striker signing, is close to connecting with a teasing and testing low cross as the Cherries make the brighter start.

Max is yet to recover from that Carrow Road thriller...

Max Calver: i'm sitting here in the same position as i was at the end of the game, my friends haven't moved either. Absolutely heartbroken.

josh hammond: 7 minutes and no goals in any of the 3pm kick offs. BOOOOOORED! 

It's no word of a lie when we say Palace have barely touched the ball in the first 10 minutes...
