    Emerson Royal getting stuck in already. He comes across to meet Tyrick Mitchell and hammer the ball out of play.

    Not long after, after winning back the ball, Spurs counter but Sergio Reguilon's pass is rubbish. Attack over.

    Spurs have three wins out of three so far. Palace are still seeking a first victory. The home side have Patrick Vieira, though, and he loves a game against Tottenham.

    After a moment of silence to remember those who lost their lives 20 years ago in the terrorist attack on the World Trade Centre in New York, the game gets under way.

    Crystal Palace v Tottenham (12:30 BST)

    A little dampener to Spurs spirits... they have won only one of their last six Premier League matches without Son (W1-D2-L3), a 2-0 win at Aston Villa on 21 March 2021.

    Right, time to get this Premier League show back on the road. Selhurst Park has had a thorough sprinkling, the fans look to have made it in in time and the players are heading out on to the pitch.

    Bring it on.

  7. South American players cleared to playpublished at 12:22 British Summer Time 11 September 2021

    In case you missed this yesterday, England-based players have been cleared to play for their clubs this weekend after complaints about their failure to report for international duty were dropped.

    Brazil, Chile, Mexico and Paraguay had invoked a Fifa rule which would have meant players not released for the recent South American World Cup qualifiers were suspended from playing for five days.

    But the countries have withdrawn their complaints, which would have stopped 12 players appearing this weekend.

    All countries involved waived the bans after talks with football's world governing body Fifa.

    Here are the players cleared to play...

    • Alisson, Fabinho, Roberto Firmino (Liverpool and Brazil)
    • Ederson and Gabriel Jesus (Manchester City and Brazil)
    • Thiago Silva (Chelsea and Brazil)
    • Raphinha (Leeds and Brazil)
    • Fred (Manchester United and Brazil)
    • Miguel Almiron (Newcastle and Paraguay)
    • Raul Jimenez (Wolves and Mexico)
    • Francisco Sierralta (Watford and Chile)
    • Ben Brereton (Blackburn and Chile)

    Vieira is still seeking his first win as Palace boss, after taking over from Roy Hodgson in the summer.

    Palace are actually without a victory in 12 Premier League meetings since a 2-1 win in January 2015. They have also had the fewest shots (20) and shots on target (five) of any team in the top flight this season.

    However, they did show some serious resolve to comeback to draw 2-2 at West Ham last time out, with on-loan Conor Gallagher netting both goals.

    In 1996, Leeds re-signed Lee Chapman on loan. The striker had scored the goals that fired them to the title in 1992 before moving on to West Ham and then Ipswich. Not long into his second Whites debut (coincidentally against the Hammers), he elbowed Marc Rieper and was sent off. Welcome back, Lee!

    With Cristiano Ronaldo back at Manchester United, I'd like you to send us your favourite 'going back to a former club' stories.

    These can be professional players heading back to your club and doing something mad a la Chapman. Preferably, though, I'd like your own personal tales of going back to a former club. Ideally this will be returning to play for said side, but lets keep it broad and include playing against an ex-team.
