    Arsenal 0-1 Fulham

    Arsenal on the front foot. Bukayo Saka wriggles between two defenders on the right, cuts back inside and then fires a shot that Bernd Leno plucks out of the air.

    Man Utd 1-2 Nottm Forest

    Diogo Dalot saves United. Taiwo Awoniyi leaves a defender on the ground and squares to Brennan Johnson for a potential tap-in, except Dalot cuts it out.

    Then Victor Lindelof and Andre Onana have words.

    Arsenal 0-1 Fulham

    The fans are taking their time returning for the start of the second half. Many are staying dry inside the stands. It is still raining but not as heavily as before the break.

  5. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:03 British Summer Time 26 August 2023

    Everton 0-0 Wolves

    Everton don't make any changes but Wolves do, Rayan Ait-Nouri is on for Hwang hee-Chan who clattered with a cameraman in that first half.

    Man Utd 1-2 Nottm Forest

    Not sure what's happened here but Raphael Varane is replaced by Victor Lindelof at the break. Must be an injury surely?

    Brentford 1-0 Crystal Palace

    Brentford come out swinging but Kevin Schade sees a shot blocked after cutting in from the left.

    Matty: I cannot deal with these tactics Arteta pls man I'm begging you, go back to last season's tried and tested methods

    Arteta is over-thinking/over-Peping it this season. Our forwards are goal-shy and defence confused. A little more Brentford directness/simplicity wouldn’t hurt.

    Mariano

    Arsenal fans should really stop moaning. Never met fans that moan as much as Arsenal fans. It's both comical and so tiring. So pleased to support Brentford.

  11. KICK-OFFpublished at 16:02 British Summer Time 26 August 2023

    Best not go anywhere if these second halves are like the first!

    We are getting back under way...

  12. Postpublished at 16:01 British Summer Time 26 August 2023

    Everton 0-0 Wolves

    Everton could do with a Lukaku, a Richarlison, a Rodriguez, a Ferguson, a Calvert-Lewin, a Rooney off the bench here.

    They can only turn to Maupay, Cannon or Chermiti though.

  13. Old habits die hardpublished at 16:01 British Summer Time 26 August 2023

    HT: Arsenal 0-1 Fulham

    Chris Wise
    BBC Radio 5 Live commentator at Emirates Stadium

    Arsenal’s old habits of conceding early goals at the Emirates are back again.

    Fulham have had to absorb plenty of pressure. Inevitably, Arsenal have found gaps, but they’ve defended really well in the main. Remember they’re without their suspended captain Tim Ream too today.

    Can I be the first here to say that Brentford's Schade is a smooth operator!!!

    Mike R

    Man Utd fans should think themselves lucky....... They won't be as bad as they were in 1934!

    Jez

    Have I got this right? We need to sell Balogun because we have to pay for Havertz. Was there not an alternative way to look at this?

  15. 'I am a player who loves to be on the ball'published at 16:00 British Summer Time 26 August 2023

    FT: Bournemouth 0-2 Tottenham

    Tottenham Hotspur

    Tottenham goalscorer James Maddison to BBC Match of the Day: "That's the type of person I am, I'm at my best when I have responsibility on my shoulders and that's when I thrive. I am a player who loves to be on the ball and that fits with how the manager wants his players to play. Today was a good day for all that."

    On his goal: "I knew the keeper was quite close to me I'd made a well-timed run. He was quite far out of his goal, it only needed a little glance but a glance was enough.

    "The midfield three that's working at the minute, that has started the last few games, we're all working really well together. We were all involved in the goal I think Yves Bissouma had the ball originally and found Pape [Sarr] and he's got that quality. I know I can make those runs and he can find me. It only needed a touch."

    On replacing Harry Kane: "It's tough if you're asking me to try and get 30 goals! It's a collective. You can't even look to replace what Harry Kane gives you. You've got to all chip in and look to try and score the same amount of goals from different areas. Harry is probably the best number nine in the world, you will never find a direct replacement in terms of goals and what he can give you. We should all be chipping in.

    "We've got the bit between our teeth. We have some momentum so long may that continue and hopefully we can still implement the final steps the gaffer wants to see, which is attacking football."

  16. 'We could tie the game with the chances we had'published at 15:59 British Summer Time 26 August 2023

    FT: Bournemouth 0-2 Tottenham

    Bournemouth

    Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola to TNT Sports: "Obviously disappointed [with the] result, we wanted to win. I think we gave them a game until the second goal. From there I think we were worse on the press and they dictated the game.

    "But we had this momentum just before the 2-0. It looked like we could tie the game with the chances we had. But from there, I think they were better than us.

    "I think we were pressing really well first half. But they are very good, even with the press they can keep the ball, turn and you just need to win the duals in the middle, that we were not doing.

    "The message was to be even more aggressive. We were much better at the beginning of the second half. Just in the moment where you think we are pushing them, they are very dangerous.

    "We should have defended better, but they were very good.

    "We have to face next game in two days. Let's see how the players finished. Some of them are very tired because Tottenham are very physical. We will see the best team to play Swansea [in the EFL Cup] because we want to win that game."

    Schadenfreude = taking pleasure in someone else’s misfortune.

    Schadefreude = taking pleasure in Kevin Schade’s stunning opener for @BrentfordFC vs @CPFC.

  18. 'We need their energy and support'published at 15:57 British Summer Time 26 August 2023

    FT: Bournemouth 0-2 Tottenham

    Tottenham Hotspur

    Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglu spoke to BBC Sport: "I thought the first half was really good. Some of our football and intensity in our play was really good. We kind of knew Bournemouth would put us under some pressure. I thought we held out really well. We didn't start the first half too well in the first 10, 15 minutes, but then after the second goal we controlled the game really well. I was really pleased through most of it that we maintained our discipline."

    On James Maddison: "He's great for out set up. I said before the game that he's the kind of guy that when the ball gets to his feet, things happen. He also works hard for the team, which is important for us. We can't just have players who are good on the ball. He embraces that side of it. He works really hard and he wins the ball back. I thought it was a good performance from him."

    Needing to spread goals around: "It makes us a more difficult team to try and stop because the goals can come from different avenues so we want to be that sort of team. It's not just because Harry left, it's the way I set my teams up. We can have multiple threats from wide or central areas. It makes it harder for the opposition to stop us."

    Transfer window: "I reckon there'll be a lot happening before the window shuts. How much I'm going to be involved, I'm not really sure, but I've got a feeling there'll be a fair bit of activity this week."

    Tottenham fans singing: "It's nice. They're part of this. We need their energy and their support. We give back for the support they've given us, that goes hand in hand. I said before the game, the more we're united as a football club, the better chance we have of success."

  19. Postpublished at 15:55 British Summer Time 26 August 2023

    FT: Bournemouth 0-2 Tottenham

    Tottenham Hotspur

    Tottenham goalscorer Dejan Kulusevski on TNT Sports: "I really, really like him [Ange Postecoglou], I think the whole team likes him a lot.

    "Not only him but the whole staff. It's been fantastic, every day we come to the training ground and it has been very, very fun.

    "We're just going to keep listening to him and staying humble. We have many more games to win."

  20. Any chance of a goal lads?published at 15:54 British Summer Time 26 August 2023

    HT: Everton 0-0 Wolves

    Wolves are winless in their last nine Premier League away games (D2 L7) coming into this one, losing each of the last five while failing to score in the last four. They last lost six on the bounce on the road in December 2011, while they last failed to score in five consecutive top-flight away matches back in October 1981.
