    West Brom make two changes from the side that won 1-0 at Burnley. Salomon Rondon comes in to attack in place of Sam Field, while James Morrison starts, with James McClean dropping to the bench.

    New signing Oliver Burke is also among the substitutes.

    They are without the suspended Hal Robson-Kanu after his sending off last weekend. Gareth McAuley is definitely out, Jonny Evans remains a doubt.

    West Brom XI: Foster, Nyom, Brunt, Hegazi, Dawson, Barry, Livermore, Morrison, Phillips, Rodriguez, Rondon.

    Xherdan Shaqiri has overcome a hamstring problem to play.

    Ibrahim Afellay and Julien Ngoy remain on the sidelines.

    Stoke XI: Butland, Zouma, Shawcross, Pieters, Martins Indi, Cameron, Allen, Fletcher, Choupo Moting, Shaqiri, Jese.

    Russ Hyde: I'd love to see Ian Poulter at the Emirates. May actually bring some passion and desire to the team.

    Jack: I'd love to see Mo Farrah turn out for Man Utd - score a 35 yard screamer, then run around the pitch for 2 and a half hours doing the Mo-bot.

  6. 'A tackle worthy of Crimewatch'published at 12:27 British Summer Time 27 August 2017

    Watford 0-0 Brighton

    Miguel Britos tackleImage source, Rex Features

    Britos' tackle was absolutely crazy. This tackle was that bad you will probably see it on Crimewatch on Thursday evening. It was dirty, it was high and if you could ban him for more than three games you probably should. He had the audacity to complain at the red card and moan at the referee. It is staggering and he was lucky he did not caused more damage.

    Newcastle 3-0 West Ham

    Newcastle pressing

    Both managers were under huge pressure to get their first points of the season. I was very impressed with Newcastle. They went straight for them, and didn't give West Ham time on the ball and worked so hard. It was relentless from Newcastle. Look at the effort and the work-rate. The fans at Newcastle will love it. They were forcing West Ham to go long. It is simple yes. But you have to do that

    Charlie Daniels' strike will be goal of the month without a shadow of a doubt. It was an unbelievable goal. Bournemouth played really well, they showed spirit and created chances. If they continue like that they will have no problems.

    Man Utd 2-0 Leicester

    Leicester did frustrate Manchester United for about 70 minutes, but then Jose Mourinho switched things up. Manchester United have a lot of options now.

    The Foxes will be disappointed with the opening goal because Marcus Rashford was unmarked, but United probably deserved it. I thought Paul Pogba was fantastic.

    That is three wins out of three now, and scoring late was what the great Manchester United teams always used to do.

    Who stayed up for the Mayweather-McGregor fight last night then?

    The professional that I am, I tucked in to bed early for today's shift, but was surprised to read the fight go 10 rounds.

    UFC fighter McGregor adapted himself well to boxing, it seems, so on to today's talking point...

    Which sportsman would you like see playing for your club and why?

    I reckon The Big Show could do a better job in goals than Joe Hart for West Ham.
