    Nitsuh Fikir: The fake Goodison crowd noise is very poor. The real sound would be boos and angry shouting.

    Bob Moss: Can VAR just start sending players off, this game is like watching paint dry.

    Gylfi Sigurdsson's cross goes over everybody but it's kept in on the far side. Everton win a corner and it's cleared by Craig Dawson, before falling kindly for Bernard on the edge of the box.

    He smacks it powerfully and Darren Randolph does well to get down low to his right and turn it around the post.

    Bernard beats Pablo Fornals with a shimmy and a quick change of pace. Fornals is late and ends up stamping on his toe. Decent free-kick position for Everton on the right.

    Sebastien Haller spins away from Abdoulaye Doucoure in the middle and keeps the ball for West Ham.

    Richarlison's header at the back for Everton is a sloppy one and Said Benrahma picks up the loose ball. He can't get through Yerry Mina though.

    We’re just waiting for that moment of quality, for someone to pick that killer pass or make something happen.

    But if you're West Ham, this is the perfect away performance from them.

    Could do with a goal. Or a shot. Preferably on target.

    Nice! Said Benrahma flicks it up and over a defender in the box and Mason Holgate has to poke it out for a corner.

    Jarrod Bowen floats it in deep to Aaron Cresswell. He heads it back across goal and Angelo Ogbonna goes for it, with Yerry Mina trying to head it away.

    It bounces off Mina's foot in the end and Everton want a free-kick for a high boot from Ogbonna but won't get it.

    Mason Holgate has options as Gylfi Sigurdsson makes a darting run in behind, while Richarlison has moved over to the left and is huggling the touchline in space.

    Holgate tries to thread it through to Sigurdsson but ends up getting way too much on it.

    Nice build-up from West Ham. Jarrod Bowen is played in on the right. He finds Sebastien Haller, who tees up Said Benrahma just inside the box. He opts not to shoot, instead laying it off to Aaron Cresswell on the left.

    He takes a touch then fires it towards the far post. It's just wide and Bowen, sprinting in for the follow-up, doesn't get there in time.

    Re: Blackburn Lad (17.36), surely if your first choice keeper isn't playing, your sub keeper comes in automatically?

    Preston Lad

    Blackburn lad needs to learn the rules of FPL. If Fabianski doesn't play, Lloris would get subbed in anyway.

    Steve, London

    More chat about FPL than the actual football...

    Tomas Soucek robs it off Tom Davies after he had won the ball back for Everton on the edge of the West Ham box.

    There's not much movement or space around though so it comes back to Angelo Ogbonna. Not very blockbuster at the moment...

    DCL gets a touch here but he's just inside the West Ham half on the left wing. He's up against Craig Dawson but tries to find Richarlison with a long, searching ball over to the far side.

    It doesn't beat the two centre-backs and it's a bit of a waste in the end.

    Still no shots on target and not much action.

    Just seven touches for Dominic Calvert-Lewin - the fewest of any Everton player.

    Vladimir Coufal's cross pings off Bernard and out for a West Ham corner. Jarrod Bowen curls in a dangerous ball but it takes a slight touch off Sebastien Haller and flies out the other side of the box for a goal kick. Just needed someone to attack it!

    Plenty of the ball for Everton and plenty of space down that right-hand side. They win a corner from the opposite flank this time though - Bernard's cross deflected behind.

    It's crossed in to Dominic Calvert-Lewin but he heads it way over.

    The pictures that I could see, Dawson was sat up and talking to physios. They were not assessing him. It almost seems like an illness.

    Hopefully he’s okay because his last game he was exceptional.

    They will have to keep an eye on him.

    He's back on.

    Craig Dawson has had a good chat and is walking off with the medical staff. Very strange... Hopefully he's fit enough to carry on.

    Hartwith: Re Blackburn Lad (17.36), which fantasy football manager ever has 2 expensive keepers on their team? Schoolboy error.

    Scott: Blackburn lad's luck is only good if Lloris doesn't get minus points.

    Lukasz Fabianski's absence is having more effect on fantasy managers than on West Ham thus far.

  20. ouch!

    Craig Dawson has gone down off the ball for West Ham and looks in a lot of pain. He hasn't move off the ground. It just looked like he cleared the ball and felt something in his foot immediately. The medical staff are on and he doesn't look comfortable.
