    Chelsea put in a great performance today. I don't think anyone expected Chelsea to be doing as well as the are this early in the season.

    The players are a lot happier and they have a lot more belief in the manager. They are on a good run and going under the radar.

    Richarlison has been putting his time suspended from Premier League football with Everton to good use - by making his Brazil debut against the USA before bagging twice for his national team four days later against El Salvador.

    He's also been called up for friendlies against Saudi Arabia and Argentina in October.

    And he got to meet his idol...

    “Neymar has been an idol of mine since childhood," he told the Guardian., external "I’ve always tried to mirror myself in the way he plays and I’ve also tried imitating some of his haircuts.

    "When I was 12 or 13 I had the yellow mohican. I didn’t quite pull it off though because I didn’t have the right hair products.

    “It would stay up for five minutes and then just flop down, so it didn’t really work. I told him about the haircut during lunchtime one day. The whole room fell about laughing – they thought it was hilarious.”

    After that draw at home to Chelsea earlier this afternoon, West Ham creep away from the bottom three with another point.

    That is not looking too bad at all after four successive losses at the start of the campaign.

    Arsenal v Everton (16:00 BST)

    Let's jump straight in with a look at the line-ups.

    Arsenal make seven changes to the side that beat Vorskla Poltava in the Europa League on Thursday, but Lucas Torreira is the only player to come into the side that won at Newcastle last time out in the Premier League. The midfielder replaces Matteo Guendouzi.

    Richarlison returns for Everton after his three-match ban for being sent-off at Bournemouth.

    Michael Keane also returns from injury, with Tom Davies coming in to captain the side as part of three changes to the XI that started the defeat by West Ham last Sunday.

    Cenk Tosun, Mason Holgate and Morgan Schneiderlin all drop to the bench.

    A three-horse race already?

    The rest of the Premier League might not see a lot of Liverpool, Man City and Chelsea for the rest of the season.

    Robert Snodgrass goes into the book for a cynical hack on Willian down by the West Ham corner flag.

    N'Golo Kante is caught out by West Ham's defence stepping up.

    Offside.

    Alvaro Morata finishes the Frenchman's low cross with a showboating drag-back finish but the flag was up and play had stopped long ago.

    Matthew Hughes: West Ham Vs Chelsea has been the worst game of the weekend and that includes Palace Vs Newcastle. Oh well, at least we have Everton Vs Arsenal still to come... Cough.

    Rob Alderman: First time somebody has actually driven at the West Ham defence and our best chance. Too much walking pace on the ball all game. Got to be more direct and make the most of one on ones. Especially at this stage of the game.

    Jared Maobe: So, what's Sarri's philosophy for @ChelseaFC, external ...pass, pass, pass aimlessly?!? What does he tell his subs in such aimlessly played game? Just go and pass, pass pass?!?

    Eden Hazard's low cross into the West Ham box is too close to the goalkeeper and Lukasz Fabianski is going to take his time over getting to his feet and clearing upfield.

    West Ham pop the ball around neatly, eating down the clock before humping the ball forward when the Chelsea press gets too close for comfort.

    Lucas Perez is chasing after it up front attempting to regain possesion.

    Four to go.

    Mark Noble's still out there!

    Manuel Pellegrini remembers and hooks the 31-year-old, who has gamely chased the Chelsea shadows this afternoon.

    Carlos Sanchez is on in his place.

    Six to go.

    Lukasz Fabianski comes and claims Willian's corner with ease.

    That is exactly what his defence and the West Ham fans will have wanted under a spot of late pressure.

    Still feels that this could go either way...

  20. CLOSE!published at 81 mins

    Chelsea's turn to go close.

    N'Golo Kante clumps his shot well over the top from Willian's smart low cross.

    He was only 12 yards out or so.
