  1. goal

    GOAL - Stoke 1-0 Newcastle

    Xherdan Shaqiri (81 mins)

    If ever a game needed a goal it was this one! Mame Diouf lays a ball off to Xherdan Shaqiri 25 yards out, he takes a touch and absolutely smashes a left-footed shot, all sorts of swerve on the ball and it beats Rob Elliot and hits the net.

    It was pretty close to Elliot - could he have done better? It's a potentially massive goal too as it leaves Newcastle a long way behind...

  2. Arsenal 1-2 Swansea

    Arsene WengerGetty Images

    Not a happy camp at Arsenal at the moment. Gabriel throwing his arms around after a poor pass out, Arsene Wenger chuntering away on the sidelines, the crowd are turning more toxic by the minute...

  3. Arsenal 1-2 Swansea

    Paul Ince
    Former MK Dons manager on BBC Radio 5 live

    “Not only was Cech at fault but there was no-one marking Williams. You cannot make those mistakes at any level, never mind when you are chasing a title.”

  4. City are 'too open'

    Liverpool 3-0 Man City

    Mark Lawrenson
    BBC football expert on BBC Radio 5 live

    "I think by gambling Pellegrini has made City too open, which was always the risk.

    "A great one-touch finish from Firmino, but a shocking touch from Otamendi.”

  5. Man Utd 0-0 Watford

    Juan MataReuters

    Heuerlho Gomes has had a rare shot to deal with as the Watford keeper gets behind a Juan Mata shot and pushes it clear. Watford have had more than their fair share tonight though. 

  6. [Whisper it quietly but] is it becoming a two-horse race at the top of the league...?

  7. goal

    GOAL - Arsenal 1-2 Swansea

    Ashley Williams (74 mins)

    Wow! A huge goal at both ends of the table as Swansea lead!

    Not great from Petr Cech as Gylfi Sigurdsson arrows a free-kick in from wide on the right, he flaps at it and Ashley Williams bundles it in from a few yards out.

    It's all falling into place for Leicester City tonight...

  8. goal

    GOAL - Liverpool 3-0 Man City

    Roberto Firmino (57 mins)

    Roberto Firmino celebratesReuters

    Jurgen Klopp likes playing Manchester City in the league! An impressive double is sewn up as Adam Lallana runs into a ragged City backline and tees up Roberto Firmino to sweep home first time. Lovely finish at the Kop end. 

    City are 10 points off the pace. 

  9. SUBSTITUTION

    Liverpool 2-0 Man City

    Manchester City now have three genuine strikers on as Kelechi Iheanacho replaces Fernandinho. City have been very poor though tonight and it would need a goal from each of their strikers to get a win here. 

  10. CLOSE!

    West Ham 1-0 Tottenham

    If you're going to win the league you need to take points in games like this, and Spurs are now stepping on the gas. Dele Allis is on, Son is coming on and now Harry Kane goes close at the far post when he stretches to turn a Christian Eriksen cross over. 

  11. 'Great club'

    West Ham 1-0 Spurs

    Paul Ince
    Former MK Dons manager on BBC Radio 5 live

    "Team spirit is about the whole club. I was at West Ham as a kid and it was a family club with a great atmosphere right down to the tea ladies."

  12. 'Stoke are Arsenal-lite tonight'

    Stoke 0-0 Newcastle

    Pat Murphy

    Aleksandar MitrovicReuters

    "Stoke are faffing around Newcastle’s box like they’re Arsenal-lite. I can see Newcastle getting something here."

  13. Arsenal 1-1 Swansea

    Conor McNamara
    BBC Radio 5 live commentator

    "Fans are booing the decision to take off Joel Campbell. He has been the bright spark and they don’t want him to go off."

  14. HITS THE WOODWORK

    Arsenal 1-1 Swansea

    And they hit the bar again! Alexis Sanchez takes the free-kick, gets it over the wall, it takes a tiny deflection and then smacks the crossbar!

    Not a popular substitution from Arsene Wenger...

  16. SUBSTITUTION

    Arsenal 1-1 Swansea

    That introduction of Danny Welbeck was met by a chorus of boos by the way - not for him coming on, but for the replacement of Joel Campbell, who has probably been the Gunners' best player. Arsenal fans growing impatient as they hunt for a winner. 

  17. CLOSE!

    Man Utd 0-0 Watford

    Quique FloresGetty Images

    Marcus Rashford adds another string to his bow as the United youngster clears a header from under his own crossbar. Watford well on top at the moment but can they capitalise? 

  18. CLOSE!

    Arsenal 1-1 Swansea

    How did that not go in! Gylfi Sigurdsson does brilliantly to skip into the penalty area and dance around Petr Cech, it's a tight angle but he fires inches wide!

    Swansea so close to a second. Danny Welbeck is on for Arsenal now.

  19. Man Utd 0-0 Watford

    Ander HerreraReuters

    Manchester United have been well off the pace tonight. It's back to the dull Old Trafford fare we were used to earlier in the season.

    Shohidur Rahman: Spurs and City losing, Arsenal drawing. What a chance for United to make up some ground, not playing like it though.

    Paul Humphreys: I guess it would be too much to ask to get United to play well for a second week just straight after a good week
