    Wayne Rooney

    Erm, what was I saying? Scratch all that. Everton lead, and who else to get the opener?

    It's Wayne Rooney, witha fantastic header, looping over the keeper, from Dominic Calvert-Lewin's expertly hanging cross.

    Vintage Rooney that. A really nice finish.

    It is interesting - now let’s see how good a manager he is. Half time cannot come soon enough for him now. They really do look like they have lost their head. Sean Dyche looks delighted. The manager looks perplexed.

    Pedestrian is the word to describe proceedings at Goodison Park. We can do better than this lads. Maybe after the break?

    Half-time will soon be upon us.

  6. CHANCE!published at 15:43 British Summer Time 12 August 2017

    West Brom 1-0 Bournemouth

    Opening for Bournemouth - the first in a long while.

    Ben Foster rushes off his line to close down Joshua King who darts in on goal between two defenders dallying over the same bouncing ball. The Baggies keeper does really well to clear the danger away with a sliding tackle in the box. Risky!

    Sam Vokes (43 mins)

    What is going on!?

    Burnley are ruining Fantasy Football teams everywhere and it is they who look like the Premier League champions at the moment as they grab a third just before half time. Steven Defour delivers a brilliant cross from deep and Sam Vokes rises highest to head in.

    Antonio Conte turns away from the pitch in disgust.

  8. CLOSE!published at 15:41 British Summer Time 12 August 2017

    West Brom 1-0 Bournemouth

    Ahmed Hegazi is causing all kinds of havoc in the box. The Egyptian John Terry flicks on a corner, which is so very nearly scooped in by the onrushing Claudio Yacob at the far stick. Chris Brunt desperately close to getting a killer touch on it too.

    West Brom are all over this.

  9. CLOSE!published at 15:41 British Summer Time 12 August 2017

    Crystal Palace 0-2 Huddersfield

    Oh big chance for Wilfried Zaha to reduce the deficit.

    The forward has been Crystal Palace's best player and he springs the offside trap but drags his shot wide. Should have put that one away.

    Stephen Ward (40 mins)

    Expect the unexpected in the Premier League!

    The reigning champions drop further behind as Burnley grab a brilliant second. Stephen Ward chests down a ball over the defence before smashing a fierce drive into the back of the net. Nothing was stopping that one.

    Is there any way back for Chelsea now?

    Southampton 0-0 Swansea

    Maya Yoshida! Maybe the last fella you'd think of to ping in a scissor kick, but hey, who's gonna stop him?

    Lukasz Fabianski was a spectator as the Japanese defender's effort, hit into the ground, just bounced wide.

    Chelsea 0-1 Burnley

    Stray passes, lethargic play, it's not good stuff from Chelsea at the moment.

    Eight minutes until the break, Antonio Conte will be desperate to get his players in for a regroup.

    Well, the atmosphere inside this stadium is... interesting!

    Chelsea have already changed their system, reverting to a back three. That makes a lot of sense.

    If you're Burnley you will never have a better chance of beating Chelsea at Stamford Bridge than you have right now. The Blues are in disarray and the visitors look up for it.

    Chelsea simply do not look physical enough. I have already seen Luiz arguing with his goalkeeper and Fabregas gesturing to his own supporters to get behind their team.

    Chelsea are clutching at straws!

    Jsut that earlier Tammy Abraham chance to speak of for Swansea, who are having to sit deep and hold off an increasingly confident Southampton side.

    James Ward-Prowse with a couple of lovely turns looking for space in the box, but the Swans are defending well.

    I feel embarrassed because I've tipped Huddersfield to go down, but the way they are playing is inspired. The first day of action is a worrying one for Palace.

    Here's one for Huddersfield fans to laminate, frame and stick up on the wall. Top of the Premier League as things stand.

    They've just gone close to a third as well with Mathias Jorgensen sending a free header just wide.

    Palace are all over the place.

    Huddersfeld's players will be feeling magnificent. There are good footballers in the Championship and today Huddersfield have been creating chance after chance.

    The Terriers are not just playing with energy going forward but they are doing it at the back as well, winning the ball back as soon as they lose possession.

    West Brom 1-0 Bournemouth

    The Baggies are buoyant, and Ahmed Hegazi is loving this. A bouncing ball on the edge of the box, he gets to it first, brutally out-muscles Nathan Ake, and tries a half-volley finish that only just creeps over the bar.
