    Fabio Borini (90 mins)

    Now we have two brilliant goals in this game. Fabio Borini finds the net with an inswinger into the top corner from outside the box. It is just a consolation, but a brilliant one nonetheless.

    Romelu Lukaku (90 mins)

    The points are going back to Merseyside. Romelu Lukaku shows every side to his game in about 10 seconds - strength, skill, composure, clinical finishing.

    The Everton striker collects a hopeful punt from Ross Barkley close to the right touchline, swats off a Leicester defender, pulls out a flurry of stepovers then slots in from 12 yards. Stunning goal.

    Vieira151: Feel bad for Bradley. First experience with the PL is with a sinking ship with too many holes to plug. Hope he gets time.

    David Ljunggren: Every time someone brushes Wilshere he falls to the ground. His bones must be made of icing sugar

    That is absolutely superb skill.

    That is why Burnely missed Andre Gray at the start of the season. He's back now and you can see his quality. 

    You can't teach that, instinctive finishing.

    Andy Carroll (90 mins)

    No, no repeat of the Palace game. Andy Carroll puts Swansea immediately back in their place, volleying past Fabianski after Sofiane Feghouli easily works free down the right to float a ball over to the back post.

    Fernando Llorente (89 mins)

    Probably too little, too late. Nathan Dyer shows more than most of his midfield colleagues have done all day, standing up his man to find Fernando Llorente who fires high beyond Darren Randolph.

    The reason I say it is probably too little, too late is that this is the Liberty Stadium and a recent precedent has been set with regard to late fireworks. Surely no repeat of Palace here.

    Henrikh Mkhitaryan (86 mins)

    Wow. Talk about improvisation. Zlatan Ibrahimovic turns provider, crossing to the middle of the Sunderland area where Henrikh Mkhitaryan arrives to flick in with his heel. I'd love to do the finish more justice - make sure you watch it later.

    GOAL - Arsenal 1-0 West Brompublished at 16:43 Greenwich Mean Time 26 December 2016

    Olivier Giroud (86 mins)

    Breakthrough! West Brom's defence is finally unlocked - and Mesut Ozil's left peg is the key. The Arsenal playmaker clips in a cross that Olivier Giroud outmuscles Gareth McAuley to meet with a thumping header.

    Arsenal 0-0 West Brom

    While Arsenal have not been at their fluent best, let's not do West Brom a disservice. They've been organised, compact and excellent defensively.

    Leicester 0-1 Everton

    Should be game over. Romelu Lukaku pulls off to the right channel, looks up to see Idrissa Gueye waiting in the box. But the lunging Everton midfielder cannot make a strong enough connection to turn the ball in. Could they pay for that missed opportunity?

    Arsenal 0-0 West Brom

    Huge cheers from the Arsenal fans. Not for a goal, however. For a booking for Albion keeper Ben Foster, who tries running down the clock one time too many.

    Zlatan Ibrahimovic (82 mins)

    United wrap up the points. The scorer is a predictable one. Zlatan Ibrahimovic makes it 11 goals in his last 10 appearances, slotting home after being found by Paul Pogba in the box. Sunderland were contributors to their own downfall, as Didier Ndong easily relinquished possession to Pogba in their own half.

    Chelsea 2-0 Bournemouth

    Chelsea have pushed the cruise control button. Bournemouth still enjoying plenty of possession but have done virtually nothing with it. Into the final 10 minutes as Willian receives a standing ovation as he is replaced by Nathaniel Chalobah.

    Andre Gray (81 mins)

    At last, we have a goal at Turf Moor and it is the home side who could well have nicked the winner. A goal-kick is nodded on by Sam Vokes and hit first time on the volley by Andre Gray. Victor Valdes should save it but he allows the ball to squirm from his grasp and roll into the corner of the net.

    Man Utd 1-0 Sunderland

    Sunderland keeper Jordan Pickford's busy afternoon continues. That's now five saves he's made from Manchester United's 21 attempts on goal. 

    In the graphic below, Daley Blind's goal is yellow, shots on target are red, shots off target are green and shots blocked are in black.

    Will Pickford be the hero in a battling Black Cats draw? There's still time...

    AGADA .B. CHRISTIAN: My advice for Hazard: leave Chelsea for Real Madrid or Barca and get Ballon D' Or. He is a genius with great feet. 

    Dennis Ethan:, externalChelsea are nine points clear as it stands. Who can stop them? I have a feeling that a rough patch is imminent.

    Leicester 0-1 Everton

    Everton teenager Tom Davies has arguably the greatest haircut in the Premier League right now. He looks like an Inspiral Carpets roadie back in 1989. And his football isn't bad either. He shoots from distance, curling a 20-yarder past the post.

    Arsenal 0-0 West Brom

    Arsenal need a goal - enter Lucas Perez. The Spanish forward comes on alongside Aaron Ramsey and almost makes an instant impact. He drills a cross into the six-yard box, but neither Olivier Giroud or Mesut Ozil can stick a toe on it.

    Michail Antonio

    This game is over. Michail Antonio nets his eighth of the season from close range. The winger had remained in the box after an initial attack and was perfectly placed to steer the ball in from Havard Nordtveit's long-range shot. Bob Bradley stands grim-faced on the touchline with his arm's folded.
