COMMENTATOR: Just brilliant, just brilliant!

:00:18.:00:25.

COMMENTATOR: What a turn, what a goal!

:00:26.:00:37.

COMMENTATOR: Look at that. Oh, look at that!

:00:38.:00:44.

After a pretty insipid international break,

:00:45.:00:53.

the Premier League returned with a bang today...

:00:54.:00:56.

Seven games on the way, Alan Shearer and Philip Neville are primed.

:00:57.:00:58.

We start with two clubs meeting for the first time in the top flight

:00:59.:01:02.

Bournemouth faced a Hull side who this week saw Mike Phelan

:01:03.:01:05.

finally confirmed as manager on a full-time basis.

:01:06.:01:07.

John Roder was at the Vitality Stadium.

:01:08.:01:14.

meet the new boss, Mike Phelan this head coach at Hull City, his

:01:15.:01:20.

contract lasting until the end of the season. Eddie Howe hinted he may

:01:21.:01:25.

make changes with players coming back from international duties with

:01:26.:01:28.

injuries, but Bournemouth are unchanged from the side that started

:01:29.:01:33.

at Watford. Steve Cook makes his 200th appearance for the jellies.

:01:34.:01:36.

Elmohamady returns from suspension. Mike Phelan makes four changes. We

:01:37.:01:42.

-- Will Keane and Harry Maguire making their first Premier League

:01:43.:01:49.

starts. Shaun Maloney also returns. Eight points from seven matches so

:01:50.:01:52.

far for Bournemouth and clean sheets in their last Premier League

:01:53.:01:59.

encounters here. Hull City, seven points from seven, and without a win

:02:00.:02:07.

in the Premier League since August. Jordan Ibe, create the touch of room

:02:08.:02:11.

for himself there. Gets it back from Wilshere. Wilshere surrounded by

:02:12.:02:17.

four hole players there. Good early pressure from the home side.

:02:18.:02:27.

Gets a free kick. Adam Smith then tumbling. Stanislas, over the wall

:02:28.:02:44.

and against the post. Daniels. Less than five minutes played, and

:02:45.:02:47.

Bournemouth are different. Charlie Daniels with the goal. I reward for

:02:48.:02:52.

Bournemouth's positive beginning to proceedings. Stanislas smashes this

:02:53.:02:58.

one against the bar and it sat up nicely for Daniels, who has room

:02:59.:03:04.

here, and time, to adjust his body position, keep the shot down and

:03:05.:03:10.

fire it in. 11 goals conceded in the three matches coming into this one

:03:11.:03:14.

for Hull City and now a goal behind, early on. All rather quiet at the

:03:15.:03:23.

Vitality. Might get a bit noisier now. Daniels finds Ibe. Wilson

:03:24.:03:29.

against the bar. Drops here for Wilshere. And just cleared away.

:03:30.:03:37.

Callum Wilson can't quite believe that his effort was a fraction too

:03:38.:03:43.

high. Hull guilty of giving Bournemouth far too much room to

:03:44.:03:46.

working. Wilson just hanging back and it was a couple of inches too

:03:47.:03:58.

high. Wilshere. Hold Sloth Clucas. -- he holds off Clucas. A lovely

:03:59.:04:05.

turn from Jordan Ibe. Thinks about a shot and goes for it as well. Always

:04:06.:04:17.

rising from Jordan Ibe. Yet to score for Bournemouth so far. Given away.

:04:18.:04:29.

A chance for Mason to drive it in, took a deflection and it's in, off

:04:30.:04:34.

Steve Cook, and Hull, with virtually their first shot of the match have

:04:35.:04:40.

equalised. It was Cook who gave the ball away initially and as the

:04:41.:04:43.

number three races into the middle here to try and get some touch on it

:04:44.:04:49.

and get it away to safety, he got a touch on it but it was way, way away

:04:50.:04:55.

from safety. Past Orrock, and into the Bournemouth goal. -- it went

:04:56.:05:01.

past Artur Boruc and into the Bournemouth goal. We are into the

:05:02.:05:05.

last five minutes of the first half, plus whatever additional time is to

:05:06.:05:12.

be played. In towards Daniels and the header is in for Steve Cook. And

:05:13.:05:19.

doesn't he celebrate? That weight of responsibility that he surely would

:05:20.:05:23.

have felt, having scored into his own goal, has now come as if by

:05:24.:05:28.

magic, disappeared. Daniels making the jump and Cook gliding in behind

:05:29.:05:33.

him, able to get the finishing touch. It's beyond David Marshall

:05:34.:05:38.

and Bournemouth have restored their lead.

:05:39.:05:49.

Ibe, able to find Daniels, can't get past Snodgrass. A foul on Callum

:05:50.:05:58.

Wilson and Robert Snodgrass is booked for that challenge, sliding

:05:59.:06:06.

in. Lee Mason has a perfect view and points to the sport, and just before

:06:07.:06:09.

the break Bournemouth have the chance to move further in front.

:06:10.:06:15.

Junior Stanislas up against David Marshall, Bicester make it 3-1, and

:06:16.:06:20.

he's done so. -- this will make it 3-1. Broad smiles all round the

:06:21.:06:28.

Vitality and that's something Bournemouth are certainly playing

:06:29.:06:31.

with plenty of today. Straight down the middle. Marshall goes one way.

:06:32.:06:39.

The ball goes into the goal. Welcome to your first full-time managerial

:06:40.:06:44.

role. It has not been a good first half for Hull City. Here's Daniels.

:06:45.:06:57.

Ibe goes past Elmohamady, and again, Ibe with the cross. It's away by

:06:58.:07:09.

Robertson. Keane dispossessed. That's a corner.

:07:10.:07:16.

Defending set pieces has proved problematical for Hull today.

:07:17.:07:25.

Another firm header towards goal from Cook and this time it's pushed

:07:26.:07:30.

over by David Marshall. Cook again able to get in behind the defender.

:07:31.:07:34.

That would have just crept in, but for Marshall's intervention.

:07:35.:07:41.

Smith finds King. In towards Smith. Lovely move from Bournemouth and the

:07:42.:07:49.

finish is applied by Junior Stanislas. Beautiful flowing move

:07:50.:07:59.

from Bournemouth. Josh King, on recently as a substitute, playing an

:08:00.:08:06.

integral part in it. Smith with the ball forward and how about that from

:08:07.:08:13.

a touch, driven across by Smith and all Stanislas how to do was pick his

:08:14.:08:21.

spot. And he picked it perfectly. Bournemouth looking threatening

:08:22.:08:24.

every single time they come into the Hull half. Wilson trying to set up

:08:25.:08:32.

Arter, can't find a way through. Josh King might be able to, he has

:08:33.:08:38.

won a corner. Comes off Curtis Davies. Bournemouth pressing for a

:08:39.:08:43.

fifth goal, they've never scored five in the Premier League. They

:08:44.:08:45.

have now. Callum Wilson with the header. Easy,

:08:46.:08:58.

easy, is the chant from the Bournemouth fans and to be perfectly

:08:59.:09:06.

honest, it has been. King with the lofted ball in. Look how many

:09:07.:09:10.

defenders are in the six yard area. Nobody but nobody challenging Callum

:09:11.:09:15.

Wilson. The look on Mike Phelan's face tells you all you need to know

:09:16.:09:18.

about Hull's performance today. Daniels sets up Gosling. Every

:09:19.:09:36.

single time Bournemouth come forward, Hull look fragile, and they

:09:37.:09:40.

are punished yet again. It's an afternoon to remember for

:09:41.:09:45.

Bournemouth, an afternoon to try and consigned to history as soon as

:09:46.:09:49.

possible for Hull, who have now conceded 17 goals in four matches.

:09:50.:09:55.

Very enjoyable from our perspective. The Premier League games are so

:09:56.:09:59.

tight, usually, today it's nice to be able to enjoy the second half,

:10:00.:10:03.

but we were good today. Gifted them the goal and a way back into the

:10:04.:10:07.

game but apart from that we were faultless, really. There's times in

:10:08.:10:10.

the game when we looked as though we had an opportunity and then that

:10:11.:10:14.

slipped by through lack of concentration, maybe a bit of

:10:15.:10:17.

naivete, but we've got to do better as a group. I put myself in that

:10:18.:10:22.

category and we have to learn the lessons quickly. We've worked hard

:10:23.:10:26.

over the past two weeks. Home form wasn't the best last year, something

:10:27.:10:30.

we were keen to put right this year and we have started well and

:10:31.:10:34.

hopefully we can continue. Talk us through your powerful header that

:10:35.:10:37.

restored the lead? I was annoyed with the goal I had given away so I

:10:38.:10:40.

restored the lead? I was annoyed with the goal I had given away so I

:10:41.:10:43.

tried to make amends for it and luckily enough it found the bottom

:10:44.:10:46.

corner. The emotions came out and then we kicked on. I thought we were

:10:47.:10:50.

excellent. How concerned are you with the fact you are letting in a

:10:51.:10:55.

lot of goals, particularly in the last four matches? Far too many and

:10:56.:10:58.

I take responsibility for that simply because we try to be

:10:59.:11:03.

proactive, we try to be on the front foot and we probably overexposed

:11:04.:11:05.

ourselves a little bit and that's down to the planning issue. I will

:11:06.:11:10.

look at myself. I'm sure the players will look at themselves and we start

:11:11.:11:14.

again. Some of our attacking play was very good today at the

:11:15.:11:17.

difference has been clinical when the chances came and it hasn't been

:11:18.:11:21.

the case is always this season. It's great to share the goals around and

:11:22.:11:25.

no other team we have the ability to score goals. It means everything.

:11:26.:11:29.

Three home wins on the bounce for Bournemouth, a wonderful performance

:11:30.:11:33.

to boot. It must be difficult to pick out any individuals, of the

:11:34.:11:38.

team performance, but you have had a go. Stanislas and Ibe terrorised the

:11:39.:11:43.

back four of Hull all afternoon, they were so positive. Every time

:11:44.:11:49.

either of them got the ball, they just dragged their team forward.

:11:50.:11:53.

They had pace, they were direct, they were prepared to gamble and

:11:54.:11:59.

take the defenders on. They were held by Hull defence who were all

:12:00.:12:02.

over the place, who were not prepared to get tight, but this is a

:12:03.:12:09.

brilliant free kick. Unlucky it doesn't go in anyway but the force

:12:10.:12:13.

of Charlie Daniels, it's a superb finish with his left foot. Snodgrass

:12:14.:12:18.

lets him run into the middle of the midfield and there's no pressure on

:12:19.:12:22.

the ball. But they were driving at them constantly, first half,

:12:23.:12:27.

second-half, lovely bits of skill. Time after time they were having

:12:28.:12:32.

efforts on goal. Let them turn once again. They just could not handle

:12:33.:12:37.

the both of them all afternoon. Have another shot at goal. This is a

:12:38.:12:41.

superb free kick from the distance out to get the whip and the pace,

:12:42.:12:47.

it's a great header from Steve. What about that, confidence, arrogance if

:12:48.:12:51.

you want, straight down the middle from Stanislas. It didn't change in

:12:52.:12:54.

the second half, they did exactly the same thing. They got the ball

:12:55.:12:57.

and Elmohamady doesn't know whether to go down the line or cut back

:12:58.:13:02.

inside as he did their, and it's another superb ball into the box and

:13:03.:13:06.

Stanislas gets his second goal with a superb finish. It could have been

:13:07.:13:10.

more, but Bournemouth were absolutely brilliant all afternoon.

:13:11.:13:14.

A fabulous achievement, what Eddie Howe has done that Bournemouth

:13:15.:13:19.

Football Club. Given I suppose the dearth of obvious candidates for the

:13:20.:13:22.

England job, would he be worth considering? Is teams play lovely

:13:23.:13:26.

football. He has brought them up. He has not suffered too much failure in

:13:27.:13:31.

his career? I think he has impressed everyone, both the way he handles

:13:32.:13:35.

himself off the pitch and the way his team play their football but he

:13:36.:13:38.

himself has said he isn't ready, he wants to develop and asked to do a

:13:39.:13:43.

job at Bournemouth. As for Hull, Mike Phelan has the job but it's

:13:44.:13:48.

going to be tough, looking at that performance and the fact they are in

:13:49.:13:52.

a bad run. They are in a bad run. I think they are missing Michael

:13:53.:13:54.

Dawson at the back. Today, they couldn't live with the intensity of

:13:55.:13:57.

Bournemouth and they need to stop conceding goals because they were

:13:58.:14:04.

all over the place at the back. Francesco Guidolin was the first

:14:05.:14:08.

managerial casualty of the season for Swansea.

:14:09.:14:13.

His replacement, former USA coach Bob Bradley,

:14:14.:14:15.

had a nice easy start at Arsenal, who were chasing

:14:16.:14:17.

Mesut Ozil hopes to celebrate his 28th birthday with something

:14:18.:14:29.

special. They have lost only one of their last 17 games. Bob Bradley

:14:30.:14:34.

embarks on a new stage of the coaching career that has expanded

:14:35.:14:39.

over 25 years. His first selection sees Gulbis Sigurdsson players are

:14:40.:14:45.

false nine in what is his 100th play asked in his 100th game for the club

:14:46.:14:47.

over two spells. Here's Walcott. Jack Cork, there.

:14:48.:15:03.

Sanchez. Fernandez, a good one. Taylor with the wayward backpass.

:15:04.:15:09.

Oh, it is a corner. Just failed Fabianski to prevent that. Ozil is

:15:10.:15:16.

going to take it. Took it carefully. Hits the top of the crossbar.

:15:17.:15:29.

Fabianski happy to see that hit the woodwork. Iwobi. Good ball that.

:15:30.:15:32.

Walcott. Sanchez. Looking for Hector. Walcott. Swansea

:15:33.:15:49.

fall behind to Theo Walcott. Sniffing in the six-yard area and

:15:50.:15:53.

taking advantage of a secondary hesitation between goalkeeper and

:15:54.:15:59.

defender. This was lifted into Bellerin. He looked for Theo

:16:00.:16:10.

Walcott. It bounced up off Amat. Walcott lurking. Arsenal 1, Swansea

:16:11.:16:18.

0. Big momentses these for Swansea. Physical they fall two behind,

:16:19.:16:19.

they're in real bother. Naughton. Clever ball that, too. Scooped on by

:16:20.:16:38.

Walcott. Here's Mesut Ozil. Hector Bellerin. Almost a peach from

:16:39.:16:44.

Arsenal. In the end, Fabianski to the rescue for Swansea. What a

:16:45.:16:51.

glorious move here. Taking you by surprise with almost every pass.

:16:52.:16:54.

Then a really good save by Fabianski. In goes that corner kick.

:16:55.:17:05.

Oh. It's two. It's wall got, again. -- it's Walcott, again. Jack Cork

:17:06.:17:12.

ended up face down on the floor. Embarrassment of riches for Theo

:17:13.:17:16.

Walcott, who can hardly miss. The bounce is unlucky. Cork didn't get

:17:17.:17:21.

enough on it. It bounced back to Walcott off Sigurdsson. It's 2-0 to

:17:22.:17:28.

Arsenal. It's two for Theo Walcott. Not the stuff of his dreams so far.

:17:29.:17:41.

Here's Naughton. A challenge by Granit Xhaka which the referee

:17:42.:17:46.

allowed to go. Swansea on the front foot, not for long. Given away. Now,

:17:47.:17:54.

Sigurdsson for Swansea, 2-1. Granit Xhaka gave the ball away and Gylfi

:17:55.:17:58.

Sigurdsson fires Swansea back into this game. Well, Arsenal have been

:17:59.:18:04.

absolutely water tight at the back in recent weeks, not here. Caught in

:18:05.:18:11.

possession. Granit Xhaka. Finished expertly by Gylfi Sigurdsson. It's a

:18:12.:18:17.

very good finish. Completely against the run of play. He Swansea are back

:18:18.:18:20.

into this game at 2-1. Ozil. Monreal. Ozil. Nicely done, Iwobi.

:18:21.:18:39.

Brilliant stuff. Great feet. Iwobi couldn't find anyone. It's a shame.

:18:40.:18:44.

Oh, brilliant save. Well, Theo Walcott denied a hat-trick by

:18:45.:18:51.

Fabianski. What a superb piece of play that from Alex Iwobi. That was

:18:52.:18:56.

magic. Nearly teed up a Walcott hat-trick.

:18:57.:19:03.

Swansea on the rack again. Back into Sanchez. Ozil. Happy birthday. 3-1,

:19:04.:19:24.

Arsenal. Fantastic finish by Mesut Ozil. Left-footed volley. Smack...

:19:25.:19:34.

This is lovely thinking from Alexis Sanchez. Ozil still has so much to

:19:35.:19:39.

do. He could not have hit it any more sweetly. Arsenal 3, Swansea 1.

:19:40.:19:48.

Mesut Ozil, 28 today. Swansea will have to change something if they're

:19:49.:19:51.

going to get something out of this game. Here's Mesut Ozil. Finds Leroy

:19:52.:19:57.

Fer. Barrow taking on Monreal. Into a

:19:58.:20:17.

dangerous position, and it's 3-2. Borja put Swansea back in the game

:20:18.:20:22.

again, the substitute strikes. Once again, Swansea find themselves

:20:23.:20:26.

within range of Arsenal. Barrow did really well here. Great awareness.

:20:27.:20:34.

Borja wasn't picked up. His first goal in English football. It's

:20:35.:20:40.

Arsenal 3, Swansea 2, with 24 minutes still to play. Alexis, nice.

:20:41.:20:49.

Out to Monreal. Walcott, at the back post, he wants it. It was intended

:20:50.:20:58.

for Cazorla. Well cut out by Amat. He will get a yellow card here. No

:20:59.:21:04.

question about that. Barrow had turned him, with a lovely little

:21:05.:21:11.

piece of skill. Well, it's a red. A straight red card for Granit Xhaka.

:21:12.:21:16.

That could be a game-changer. Arsene Wenger is astonished. It's a

:21:17.:21:21.

brilliant piece of skill by Barrow. Granit Xhaka is completely beaten.

:21:22.:21:26.

And trips him. Knew what he was doing. Pretty much immediately

:21:27.:21:33.

acknowledged the foul as well. Well, Arsene Wenger is absolutely

:21:34.:21:36.

incensed. 20 minutes to go. We've had five goals and a red card. What

:21:37.:21:42.

do the next 20 minutes hold? Routledge. Look at this, free

:21:43.:21:51.

header. Ah, Barrow, straight in to Cech. No flag, he was onside. It's a

:21:52.:21:57.

real let-off for Arsenal. I just is sense down in that Swansea dug-out

:21:58.:21:59.

they can nick something here. He knows he can beat Monreal for

:22:00.:22:12.

pace. It's a great ball. Well, Sigurdsson is the man they would

:22:13.:22:16.

have wanted on it. But he couldn't finish it. Fascinating. Much closer

:22:17.:22:24.

than it should be. Fer. He's lost it. Could be danger here. Alex

:22:25.:22:29.

Oxlade-Chamberlain. It's him and Walcott. Rangel's the last man back.

:22:30.:22:36.

It found its way to Walcott. It's hit the inside of the post. You

:22:37.:22:40.

don't come closer to a hat-trick than that. Great counter-attack.

:22:41.:22:46.

Unbelievable unlucky not to make it three for him and four for Arsenal.

:22:47.:22:56.

Neil Taylor. Ki will get on to that. Find Rangel. Naughton. Up towards

:22:57.:23:06.

Leroy Fer. Ah! They've had their chances, Leroy Fer has had a couple

:23:07.:23:11.

today. With two minutes to go, will they get a better chance? Rangel, it

:23:12.:23:19.

has to go long and it's got to go long quickly. Fer, wrong part of the

:23:20.:23:25.

head. Oxlade-Chamberlain. Away from Leroy Fer. It's Walcott. Hat-trick,

:23:26.:23:35.

surely. NO! Unbelievable. It may not affect the outcome, but how is this

:23:36.:23:40.

not a fourth and a hat-trick for Walcott? He knows it. Oh, he knows

:23:41.:23:47.

it all right. I would have liked to have put it away and got a hat-trick

:23:48.:23:52.

on a personal note much we dug in. When you are playing for 24, 25

:23:53.:23:57.

minutes with 10-men is not easy in the Premier League. It's a strong

:23:58.:24:02.

Swansea team. A manager who has come in with new ideas, I'm sure they

:24:03.:24:06.

will improve. If we play with the kind of mentality we had today for

:24:07.:24:09.

me, we are going to become a good team. But when you go through a

:24:10.:24:14.

stretch of tough fixtures, when there has been a managerial change,

:24:15.:24:19.

there is a lot there, but the response of the players has been

:24:20.:24:23.

very, very good. The Xhaka incident and red card incident happened in

:24:24.:24:26.

front of you. I'm guessing you saw that one? I saw that one. I

:24:27.:24:31.

cannot... I thought it was a bit harsh to be sent off it was a

:24:32.:24:37.

deliberate and I thought it was a dark yellow and it became an

:24:38.:24:40.

absolute red. That made it of course difficult for us. And, but we got

:24:41.:24:46.

over the line. Yeah, yellow would have done probably, wouldn't it? I

:24:47.:24:50.

don't how many times over the years we have talked about the pros and

:24:51.:24:56.

cons of Theo Walcott. You are entitled to turn? For someone of 27

:24:57.:25:02.

years of age he under performed. Injuries have restricted him. This

:25:03.:25:06.

season he's a player improving. Consistency is improving. Five goals

:25:07.:25:10.

already in eight games. He scored two today. He should have scored

:25:11.:25:14.

four. At least three. This was the first one. He has license to go

:25:15.:25:19.

inside. People seem him as a right-winger. I think he's at his

:25:20.:25:23.

best wandering inside. Poor defending from Swansea. This was his

:25:24.:25:27.

second goal. Opportunist. He was in the right place at the right time. A

:25:28.:25:31.

good finish. I think it's moments like this where he is frustrating.

:25:32.:25:35.

Ball into the box. There. He has to score. It's a simple chance with his

:25:36.:25:40.

left foot. This I thoughts with a great counter-attack. He made up the

:25:41.:25:44.

ground. Used his speed. Did everything but score, unlucky there.

:25:45.:25:48.

Then this is where I think he has to be going home with the match-ball.

:25:49.:25:51.

Ball comes into the box. He couldn't quite sort his feet out. I think

:25:52.:25:56.

that's why people always say, is he going to fulfil his potential.

:25:57.:26:00.

In-form, not really for England No. He has had enough chances, Gary.

:26:01.:26:05.

Which have this discussion every year about Theo. You see his stats

:26:06.:26:10.

on the screen. Only once in double figures. It's not God enough. If we

:26:11.:26:14.

continue to talk about him in the next two or three years to say he

:26:15.:26:17.

has scored so many goals and he's been brilliant. I will change my

:26:18.:26:20.

mind much I will say he's a good player. At the minute he's a good

:26:21.:26:25.

player. Tough afternoon for Swansea in many ways. They battled away.

:26:26.:26:29.

They had chances. They could have got something out of the game.

:26:30.:26:34.

Encouraging signs for Bob Bradley They have had difficult games. Two

:26:35.:26:40.

impressive performances against City and against Liverpool. Created their

:26:41.:26:44.

chances in those games. They didn't get anything out of them. Phil? No.

:26:45.:26:47.

The lad on the ball had a fantastic game. He gave nightmares to Monreal.

:26:48.:26:54.

Here is one v one with him. When you take over a team, so early in the

:26:55.:26:57.

season, you think they are in disarray. Look at the players they

:26:58.:27:04.

are committing forward. I think Francesco Guidolin was unlucky to be

:27:05.:27:07.

sacked. They have not been putting away their chances. This has been

:27:08.:27:11.

their biggest problem in the last four games. They are not punishing

:27:12.:27:13.

teams for the chances they are creating. Again, getting lots of

:27:14.:27:18.

people in the box. Barrow goes passed Monreal again. Sigurdsson

:27:19.:27:23.

should at least hit the target. They did, they created chances

:27:24.:27:26.

particularly when they were against the 10-men. They kept on pushing

:27:27.:27:30.

forward. These aren't half-chances. These are very, very good chances.

:27:31.:27:33.

#24e7 created the openings there. Bodies in the box. They should be

:27:34.:27:38.

doing better. They will go home tonight on the bus, how they get

:27:39.:27:42.

home, disappointing they came awhich with a defeat and nothing. OK.

:27:43.:27:48.

COMMENTATOR: Schmeichel was beaten. It needed saving by Brav row.

:27:49.:28:02.

Another excellent stop from Foster. -- Bravo. Oh, my word. Benteke!

:28:03.:28:13.

Chelsea faced champions Leicester for the second time this season

:28:14.:28:16.

after getting the better of a six goal thriller in the

:28:17.:28:18.

Your commentator at Stamford Bridge was Steve Bower.

:28:19.:28:21.

Kante missed one Premier League game for Leicester in their fairytale

:28:22.:28:25.

title winning season. The French international faces his former club

:28:26.:28:29.

for the first time since his ?32 million move to Chelsea. The

:28:30.:28:33.

champions have undoubtedly missed Claudio Ranieri's first Leicester

:28:34.:28:37.

signing, conceding ten goals on the road already. The responsibility to

:28:38.:28:43.

fill his boots, once again, falls upon the shoulders of Daniel, Amat

:28:44.:28:44.

a. -- both teams are wearing black

:28:45.:29:09.

armbands. Moses. An extended run in the team, Moses. Up against Fuchs.

:29:10.:29:14.

Deflected cross. Good reaction from Schmeichel. He had to be alive to

:29:15.:29:17.

the situation there, Kasper Schmeichel. He was equal to it.

:29:18.:29:22.

First corner of the game is Chelsea's. Hazard. Touch through.

:29:23.:29:27.

Surely a goal. It is. He couldn't miss, Diego Costa, could he? It's

:29:28.:29:33.

taken him less than seven minutes to score his seventh Premier League

:29:34.:29:38.

goal of the season. Chelsea's main man in the right place again.

:29:39.:29:43.

Leicester will ask questions. Nobody anywhere near him. Schmeichel got a

:29:44.:29:49.

hand to it. It was too powerful for him. Just the start he was looking

:29:50.:29:54.

for. Not the one that Leicester were.

:29:55.:30:00.

Chelsea in front, only Arsenal have stopped them scoring so far in the

:30:01.:30:03.

league. Hazard was caught late by Huth, the

:30:04.:30:15.

referee is reaching, the first yellow card of the day goes to

:30:16.:30:20.

Robert Huth, his 300th career league appearance in England, the first of

:30:21.:30:24.

which was for Claudio Ranieri is a 17-year-old for Chelsea. Are we

:30:25.:30:29.

going to see something special from his repertoire? Here he comes, David

:30:30.:30:34.

Luiz. Very nearly did. Schmeichel was beaten, all ends up. Almost got

:30:35.:30:40.

his first goal back in his second spell. Crashed against the woodwork.

:30:41.:30:57.

The run down the middle, it might come to Hazard. 2-0, to Chelsea. As

:30:58.:31:14.

sure as ever from Eden Hazard. He scores his third Premier League goal

:31:15.:31:18.

of the season. He gives the scoreline a realistic look. It was a

:31:19.:31:25.

little untidy as to how it came through to the Belgian. There was

:31:26.:31:30.

moth-eaten untidy about the finish. There's nothing more that -- there

:31:31.:31:34.

was nothing untidy about the finish, nothing more than Chelsea have

:31:35.:31:39.

deserved. Total domination from Chelsea. Drinkwater to pick out

:31:40.:31:48.

Hernandez. The crossing towards Vardy, David Luiz went flying in.

:31:49.:31:53.

The first corner of any note that's gone into the Chelsea penalty area.

:31:54.:31:58.

Keep your eye on David Luiz as this comes in, he was certainly

:31:59.:32:04.

committed. Over both Hazard and Christian Fuchs, the challenge from

:32:05.:32:06.

Pedro. Kante finds Costa. Just clipped there, Diego Costa, by

:32:07.:32:23.

Albrighton. David Luiz understandably over the ball again.

:32:24.:32:31.

Schmeichel with the save. That came off Morgan, gathered in the end by

:32:32.:32:40.

Kasper Schmeichel. His 350th league appearance that England, kept it at

:32:41.:32:46.

two, he will certainly need to have some words at the break. Chelsea get

:32:47.:32:53.

us under way in the second half. No changes from either side. Leicester

:32:54.:32:57.

have to try and devise a plan to change the scoreline. Big appeals

:32:58.:33:04.

for hands in the first few seconds of the second half. Pedro with the

:33:05.:33:08.

shot, certainly struck his arm. Deliberate movement? Andre Marriner

:33:09.:33:09.

said, no. Better from Leicester, a bit more

:33:10.:33:21.

drive to their play. It's come through to Schlupp. He ran straight

:33:22.:33:28.

up Moses. Andre Marriner was an excellent position. There was

:33:29.:33:31.

nothing doing here. Leicester are on the ball more in

:33:32.:33:44.

the second half so far. That's useful from Drinkwater. Albrighton

:33:45.:33:47.

trying to get it across. He's got Leicester a corner. Albrighton to

:33:48.:33:54.

take. In towards Amartey, away by Pedro. It's Kante who is the most

:33:55.:34:02.

advanced player. He's got Moses up with him and he's seen him. It's

:34:03.:34:07.

Victor Moses for Chelsea and it's a good strong hand from Kasper

:34:08.:34:12.

Schmeichel. Kante was the most unlikely player to be found in this

:34:13.:34:17.

kind of situation, but he had the vision and awareness to pick out

:34:18.:34:21.

Moses, who took it first time. Schmeichel was equal to it.

:34:22.:34:32.

The crossfield ball from Drinkwater. Hernandez, then Albrighton's own

:34:33.:34:42.

cross, almost an own goal from David Luiz. Swept in by Albrighton, David

:34:43.:34:49.

Luiz at full stretch with Vardy right behind him almost diverted in

:34:50.:34:57.

the past to Courtois. -- almost diverted the past, to Courtois. Back

:34:58.:35:05.

to Kante. Denied a goal against his former club. It came back to Kante

:35:06.:35:09.

and Wes Morgan did brilliantly to deny the former Leicester player a

:35:10.:35:13.

goal against the reigning champions. Leicester were just eight goals in

:35:14.:35:21.

their seven Premier League games so far.

:35:22.:35:29.

Moses, that will seal it. Victor Moses with his second Premier League

:35:30.:35:38.

goal of the season. Chelsea's third of the day. He started cutting in

:35:39.:35:45.

from the left-hand side, got it back Chalobah Rand a finish, you have to

:35:46.:35:53.

say, excellent work from the substitute, Chalobah, and Schmeichel

:35:54.:35:57.

could do nothing about that one. A satisfying day's work for Chelsea.

:35:58.:36:06.

3-0. There were positive things we know we can improve, but also we

:36:07.:36:12.

know that this is the right way, the right way is this, and I saw a good

:36:13.:36:19.

balance for the second game, for the second consecutive game, without

:36:20.:36:24.

conceding a goal and it's very important. We are all satisfied I

:36:25.:36:29.

think, we played well in the first half. The second half was a bit

:36:30.:36:33.

different because they pressed a lot, they created some chances but

:36:34.:36:37.

we scored three goals. We could score more but for others, it was

:36:38.:36:45.

good to come back and win in front of our fans. It's a good day for

:36:46.:36:51.

Chelsea. 13 goals you've conceded four games on the road. How much of

:36:52.:36:56.

a concern is that, given how strong you were last season? It's very

:36:57.:37:01.

strange, nobody recognises that most of last season. We must work more,

:37:02.:37:05.

more and more concentration during the match. What has happened to my

:37:06.:37:13.

team? It's all gone wrong! It's all gone wrong, I don't like it. I can

:37:14.:37:17.

draw parallels with Blackburn when we won the league in 1995, we lost

:37:18.:37:22.

our first four away games of the season but we didn't sign any

:37:23.:37:25.

players to push is on that year. Leicester have signed players this

:37:26.:37:30.

year, so that you can't really use as an excuse. Those players should

:37:31.:37:33.

be pushing the players that are already there, keeping them on their

:37:34.:37:37.

toes and not doing the dirty work. They're not doing the basics, the

:37:38.:37:40.

dirty side of the game, closing people down, like they were last

:37:41.:37:44.

year. They were hard and tough to play against last year, this year,

:37:45.:37:49.

they are not. Particularly away from home. They conceded three set pieces

:37:50.:37:53.

to Man United last game, you would think they would be on their toes

:37:54.:37:57.

for the set pieces. If that ball goes short, as it does, it's

:37:58.:38:01.

Drinkwater's job to clear it. Simple. It comes into the near post

:38:02.:38:05.

and he's not even looking at the ball. He should be looking at the

:38:06.:38:09.

ball and the man also. It goes short. Morgan is with Costa. Have a

:38:10.:38:14.

look at Morgan. He is frozen to the sport. He doesn't even move. He's

:38:15.:38:22.

meant to be marking Costa. He is now 12 yards off him. You can't give

:38:23.:38:25.

that amount of time to a goal-scorer. No pressure on the

:38:26.:38:28.

ball. No one wants to work hard. To do the ugly side of things. Schlupp

:38:29.:38:33.

is with Hazard, or he should be. What Hernandez is doing, I'm not

:38:34.:38:37.

sure. There's no pressure on the ball so it's an easy ball in and

:38:38.:38:41.

Hazard should do better. Time to turn on the halfway line. Someone go

:38:42.:38:46.

and close someone down. Full-back to Moses, it's a brilliant goal from

:38:47.:38:51.

Chelsea's point of view but no one wants to close down. It was far too

:38:52.:38:57.

easy. For Chelsea. I know they lost Kante, who was a big loss to them,

:38:58.:39:02.

and I think particularly away from home he has to look at changing the

:39:03.:39:05.

system because they haven't got enough bodies in midfield, haven't

:39:06.:39:09.

got enough men to do the running, to do the dirty work, they constantly

:39:10.:39:14.

played two upfront and teams are picking them off. Totally agree, it

:39:15.:39:18.

makes you realise what a miracle it was last season. A change of system

:39:19.:39:22.

for Chelsea and it seems to be having a positive effect on Eden

:39:23.:39:31.

Hazard? It has, Chelsea have disappointed be the most, until he's

:39:32.:39:34.

gone to three at the back, the system he prefers and it means Eden

:39:35.:39:36.

Hazard has come more inside along with Pedro Rod Costa and he's

:39:37.:39:39.

playing really high upfront. He's got license to go free and he's

:39:40.:39:43.

having more influence on this game. If you see here he's in a central

:39:44.:39:47.

position. Morgan goes tight with Costa, he sees the space in behind,

:39:48.:39:51.

he has the intelligence to see that and makes a run. I think it should

:39:52.:39:55.

actually do better with this opportunity but it was the way he

:39:56.:39:58.

saw the space and went into it. We've always seen him in wide areas.

:39:59.:40:04.

He is brilliant one against one, and nightmare for defenders. He has a

:40:05.:40:07.

low sense of gravity. With Eden Hazard, this was his goal, the

:40:08.:40:10.

highest up the pitch, almost playing centre forward at times today, he's

:40:11.:40:20.

got that licence to be wherever he wants to be. He's got the flicks,

:40:21.:40:22.

the quality, but with Eden Hazard I always think in a game like this if

:40:23.:40:26.

he wants to be a great, great footballer, he's got to be scoring

:40:27.:40:29.

two or three goals and he's got to add that ruthlessness to his game.

:40:30.:40:33.

This system suits him down to a tee. Certainly does. Let's move on.

:40:34.:40:36.

To the Etihad now where leaders Manchester City faced Everton.

:40:37.:40:39.

Pep Guardiola and Ronald Koeman were once room-mates at Barcelona -

:40:40.:40:41.

anyone here not played for Barcelona - but this was their first meeting

:40:42.:40:45.

Pep Guardiola once took guidance from Ronald Koeman, both learned

:40:46.:41:01.

from the late great Johan Cruyff. Let's hope we get a game of the

:41:02.:41:05.

quality always delivered by the dutch master. For the first time

:41:06.:41:10.

since his move from Merseyside, John Stones faces the club with whom you

:41:11.:41:14.

became Premier League player. How he handles being up against Romelu

:41:15.:41:18.

Lukaku could be key. The Belgian is on a roll of goals of five in his

:41:19.:41:26.

last four games. City have started with a back three of Otamendi,

:41:27.:41:36.

Stones and Clichy. Sane easily passed Oviedo. As you'd expect with

:41:37.:41:40.

this sort of line-up, with this emphasis on the attack right from

:41:41.:41:45.

the start, from City. Leroy Psalm with the first clear demonstration

:41:46.:41:51.

of his abilities -- Leroy Sane. The Manchester City boss was

:41:52.:41:53.

philosophical after losing for the first time at Spurs a fortnight ago.

:41:54.:41:58.

Sometimes it happens, it will help us improve. The referee thought it

:41:59.:42:09.

was just a fall. Oviedo's attempt at clearance, half stopped by De Bruyne

:42:10.:42:23.

and here's Silva. Williams came in to charge down his attempted thread

:42:24.:42:27.

through. How close was this to being a Manchester City penalty? Rather

:42:28.:42:31.

jumped into the challenge, Oviedo, who was being mesmerised by the

:42:32.:42:39.

dancing feet of Sane. Sane went to the floor, might have hindered

:42:40.:42:40.

rather than helped his case. Fernandinho, Yannick Bolasie has

:42:41.:42:57.

read that. The clearance is poor, straight to De Bruyne. Is away from

:42:58.:43:10.

Barry, trying to turn from Jagielka, as -- we stumble from Silva and a

:43:11.:43:14.

penalty for Manchester City. Phil Jagielka is on his knees and

:43:15.:43:20.

reflecting on a right old Everton mess. It was Coleman and Jagielka in

:43:21.:43:30.

one another's way. It looks as though they'd sorted it out here.

:43:31.:43:36.

But then as Jagielka stretched out the leg backwards, after the bounds

:43:37.:43:38.

of the ball took it back into Silva's pass, he did when down the

:43:39.:43:44.

Spaniard and that's why Kevin De Bruyne now has the chance to give

:43:45.:43:52.

City the lead. De Bruyne's effort, saved. Stekelenburg went the right

:43:53.:43:57.

way and it was at a lovely height for him. Perfect for the keeper.

:43:58.:44:04.

Manchester City's overall dominance of the game still not reflected in

:44:05.:44:06.

the scoreline. Otamendi, that's got straight to

:44:07.:44:28.

Yannick Bolasie. Deulofeu easily gets away from Otamendi and it

:44:29.:44:35.

needed saving by Bravo. Everton Fire won in on the City goal. That's just

:44:36.:44:41.

about the first thing that Claudio Bravo has had to do with his hands

:44:42.:44:45.

all afternoon. I'm sure this won't be the only Manchester versus

:44:46.:44:49.

Merseyside meeting he attends this weekend. Monday night, he'll be at

:44:50.:44:50.

Anfield. Iheanacho, Silva. Now Sane. Flicked

:44:51.:45:03.

towards goal. Kept out by Stekelenburg. Brill yanltly worked

:45:04.:45:09.

by City. Clever attempt at a finish from Iheanacho. Not quite enough on

:45:10.:45:14.

it to find a way past Maarten Stekelenburg. You can see why Ronald

:45:15.:45:20.

Koeman's Everton are yet to concede more than one goal in any Premier

:45:21.:45:33.

League game. De Bruyne. Brilliant interception from Jagielka. Bolasie

:45:34.:45:42.

turns to it Lukaku. He's got to do it by himself. Lukaku goes on.

:45:43.:45:51.

Lukaku scores. Brilliantly taken goal. The Everton smash-and-grab is

:45:52.:46:01.

on. It was thought that Everton might threaten on the counter at

:46:02.:46:04.

some point today, but they haven't really done so until now. A gorgeous

:46:05.:46:12.

flick from Bolasie. But, goodness me, how much did Lukaku have to do

:46:13.:46:16.

from there? And, he did it perfectly. Manchester City 0,

:46:17.:46:20.

Everton 1. Fernandinho. Aguero. Penalty shouts, another

:46:21.:46:30.

penalty given. Another one conceded by Phil

:46:31.:46:48.

Jagielka. Jagielka's defending, for the most part today, has been

:46:49.:46:53.

exemplary. He's got it wrong just a couple of times. First time round it

:46:54.:46:58.

didn't cost his side, but he's miss-timed that one hopelessly.

:46:59.:47:02.

Having seen De Bruyne fail, and having failed himself in the colours

:47:03.:47:06.

of Argentina, during the international break, it's Sergio

:47:07.:47:15.

Aguero's turn. Aguero. Saved again by Stekelenburg! Everton's

:47:16.:47:24.

superstar. Twice he went left, twice he's denied. Two of the best players

:47:25.:47:29.

in the world. Again, it's a nice height. Again, you've got to say,

:47:30.:47:33.

goes down as a pretty poor penalty effort. Aguero. Silva, Aguero! And

:47:34.:47:45.

Stekelenburg's kept out another one. He's having one of those days that

:47:46.:47:52.

goalkeepers dream of. Helped on by Otamendi. Stones.

:47:53.:48:00.

Fernandinho, bounces off Stones. Sterling finds De Bruyne. Silva.

:48:01.:48:11.

Silva, in. That won't beat Stekelenburg. It's Nolito who has

:48:12.:48:17.

headed City level. I'm pretty sure that's his first touch of the ball.

:48:18.:48:25.

He's just come on for Leroy Sane. And David Silva puts in the perfect

:48:26.:48:30.

cross. He came off the bench to score for Spain in a 2-0 win in

:48:31.:48:33.

Albania in the week. Comes off the bench and does that inside a minute

:48:34.:48:38.

today, and it's his 30th birthday. Some substitution.

:48:39.:48:45.

Silva, De Bruyne. De Bruyne let's fly. Brilliant save. Tipped against

:48:46.:48:55.

the post by Stekelenburg. In the catalogue of saves that he's come

:48:56.:48:58.

out with today, each one's better than the previous one. It's the

:48:59.:49:03.

first time that Manchester City have failed to win at home since Pep

:49:04.:49:10.

Guardiola took charge. Goodness me, they've had the chances. Are you

:49:11.:49:13.

delighted with the point? Yes, of course. Very difficult against my

:49:14.:49:24.

management period, coaching period, the best team I've ever met. Great

:49:25.:49:29.

football and very difficult, but we showed unbelievable spirit today.

:49:30.:49:33.

The goalkeeper may have played his best of his life. We punished them

:49:34.:49:39.

with the first chance we get. Not many teams will get a point out of

:49:40.:49:45.

this stadium. We did absolutely everything. I'm sad, not sad. Sad

:49:46.:49:52.

for the players. Today they didn't deserve, but as well I want to say a

:49:53.:49:58.

compliment for Everton, for Ronald Koeman for the performance. That's

:49:59.:50:04.

why I just can say, well done. I mean, honest assessments from both

:50:05.:50:08.

managers. Manchester City played gorgeous football. Blimey, Everton

:50:09.:50:12.

were resilient, especially their keeper? Very good game of football.

:50:13.:50:19.

Attacking City side to a resilient Everton, at the back. Particularly

:50:20.:50:27.

their goalkeeper. Williams was their Achilles head last year was

:50:28.:50:33.

defending. Too many goals conceded. Williams added strength and steel to

:50:34.:50:36.

that back four. Right place, right time. An organiser, a leader. He

:50:37.:50:43.

pulls people around. Not scared to give team-mates a telling off if he

:50:44.:50:48.

needs to. As I said, he played his part today. I know Jagielka gave two

:50:49.:50:52.

penalties away. What about that for a clearance? Actually, this is where

:50:53.:50:57.

Everton's goal starts from. From that brilliant clearance. Give and

:50:58.:51:02.

go from Lukaku. City gambling, pushing too many people forward.

:51:03.:51:07.

Left one-on-one at the back, Lukaku and Clichy. Lukaku took it well.

:51:08.:51:11.

Shouting to him to get into the box. What a finish that is. The

:51:12.:51:14.

goalkeeper has no chance. Mentioned the back four. The goalkeeper had a

:51:15.:51:19.

brilliant game. One from De Bruyne. One from Aguero. I think this one

:51:20.:51:25.

here is the best one. Right hand, fingernails basically that is from

:51:26.:51:28.

Aguero, again that's going in the top corner there. He's played a huge

:51:29.:51:32.

part in getting the result today. If you thought that was... Next one is

:51:33.:51:36.

not bad From De Bruyne. Right hand the first one, left hand that one.

:51:37.:51:41.

It was a very, very resilient display from Everton. Manchester

:51:42.:51:45.

City three games now without a win in all competitions. Blimey they

:51:46.:51:48.

play some stuff, don't they? Sensational today. What it has

:51:49.:51:53.

proved in the last two games. Tottenham pressed them high with

:51:54.:51:56.

high-tempo and beat them. Today Everton sat back. Two different

:51:57.:51:59.

styles to play against them and get results. They will not have it easy.

:52:00.:52:03.

They are still the team to beat for me. I would say so.

:52:04.:52:06.

Victory over Manchester City last time out left Spurs as the only

:52:07.:52:09.

unbeaten team in the Premier League ahead of their trip to West Brom,

:52:10.:52:12.

who themselves had lost just once in the last five.

:52:13.:52:15.

Rondon may have returned back very late from duty but Tony Pulis

:52:16.:52:25.

included him. Citing the fact his family travelled over to see the

:52:26.:52:29.

game which may give the striker that little psychological booster. West

:52:30.:52:35.

Brom are unchanged. Spurs make two changes. Ben Davies and Janssen are

:52:36.:52:41.

brought in. No injury concerns at the heart of Mauricio Pochettino's

:52:42.:52:45.

decision-making. A recognition of a punishing few weeks ahead which

:52:46.:52:49.

includes two Champions League games and a League Cup meeting with

:52:50.:52:52.

Liverpool in addition to attempting to preserve the only unbeaten start

:52:53.:52:54.

to the Premier League campaign. COMMENTATOR: Lamela. Janssen.

:52:55.:53:14.

Clipped in towards Alli. Headed away by Evans. Good turn by Wanyama.

:53:15.:53:23.

Eriksen. Walker. Might think about hitting it, changes his mind. Picks

:53:24.:53:28.

out Lamela. Charged down, Alli, good save by Foster. There is a claim for

:53:29.:53:34.

handball amidst all of that. Referee waves play on. Rondon can't get to

:53:35.:53:41.

the ball. It's only a matter of time you fancy before Spurs do take the

:53:42.:53:49.

lead here. West Brom are defending manfully, but they are ramming on

:53:50.:53:53.

that West Bromwich Albion defensive door. Now the visiting supporters

:53:54.:54:03.

can sense an opening goal. And, Alli can't quite provide it. Looked as

:54:04.:54:08.

though he was possibly in an offside position o, the flag didn't go up.

:54:09.:54:21.

But it would have been 1-0 had Alli had inventively put it in.

:54:22.:54:27.

Pochettino trying to preserve the only unbeaten start in the Premier

:54:28.:54:36.

League. Wanyama. Good play from Davies. Excellent play. Good stop

:54:37.:54:42.

from Foster. A couple of really good saves from Ben Foster that have kept

:54:43.:54:50.

it at 0-0. Full of praise, Tony Pulis, for his opposite number ahead

:54:51.:54:53.

of the match today. Great respect for the excellent way in which he

:54:54.:54:59.

sets up his Spurs team. Indeed previously at Southampton. Nice

:55:00.:55:04.

ball, again, from Janssen. Here comes Dele Alli. Another excellent

:55:05.:55:10.

stop from Foster. Well, it is 0-0, yes, but there's one man that you

:55:11.:55:16.

can thank for that from a West Brom perspective. Well the West Bromwich

:55:17.:55:23.

Albion controlling stakeholder alongside the Chairman John

:55:24.:55:26.

Williams, assessing what he's bought here. Here's Janssen, again. Now

:55:27.:55:38.

Alli. Eriksen. Good save again from Foster. It's turning into the Ben

:55:39.:55:45.

Foster Show. Well there have been a number of Spurs players who believed

:55:46.:55:49.

that they have opened the scoring today, only to find Ben Foster in

:55:50.:55:57.

immaculate form. Phillips. Now, McClean.

:55:58.:56:01.

Oh, it's on target. Ronned Ron. Oh, he could have scored, maybe he

:56:02.:56:08.

should have done, it just got split by Lloris. -- Rondon. Rondon pounced

:56:09.:56:15.

on the loose one, but couldn't get it beyond the Spurs' skipper.

:56:16.:56:24.

Chadli. McClean. It's good. Deflection gives West Bromwich

:56:25.:56:27.

Albion their first corner of the match and at last an opportunity to

:56:28.:56:32.

try and breach Spurs from a set-piece. McAuley, Dawson,

:56:33.:56:38.

inevitably in there. Delivery is not bad. McAuley, well, it came to him

:56:39.:56:46.

and he, sort of, half heartedly flung his right boot at it. It was a

:56:47.:56:49.

better chance than I think he realised. Here's Yacob. Dawson.

:56:50.:57:01.

Chadli. Clearance as far as Rondon. Rondon, good ball. Brings in Brunt.

:57:02.:57:05.

Brunt's ball towards McClean, and out for a corner. All of a sudden,

:57:06.:57:09.

West Brom sense that they might be able to find a winning goal here. I

:57:10.:57:17.

think Tony Pulis would call this one of his finest triumphs as a manager

:57:18.:57:20.

if West Brom can steal a winner here. McClean. It's off the bar and

:57:21.:57:31.

then Chadli! Nacer Chadli, against his former club, he doesn't want to

:57:32.:57:37.

celebrate, but there's several thousand West Brom supporters that

:57:38.:57:42.

do. Well, they've been outstanding defence ill. They have their

:57:43.:57:47.

goalkeeper to thank, but as this game has worn on, they've looked the

:57:48.:57:52.

likelier to take the lead, West Brom. After McClean's shot came back

:57:53.:57:57.

off the post, the former Spurs employee smashes the ball into the

:57:58.:58:03.

back of the Spurs net and gives West Brom what could be a very, famous

:58:04.:58:10.

three points indeed. Well those saves that Ben Foster made in the

:58:11.:58:15.

first half have become more and more sharply into focus. Dier.

:58:16.:58:24.

Son. Still holds on. Shot from Eriksen is blocked and it's prodded

:58:25.:58:36.

in by Dele Alli. The and Spurs have an equaliser with two minutes left

:58:37.:58:44.

on the clock. Son was persistent down the left hand side. Eriksen's

:58:45.:58:50.

shot charged down and Alli prods it beyond Foster and into the corner of

:58:51.:58:55.

the net. He scored last season here at the Hawthorns in a 1-1 draw. Has

:58:56.:59:00.

history repeated itself? Don't give your point away. That's the message

:59:01.:59:08.

from Tony Pulis. Puff out your chests, Janssen, Alli, forwards. Son

:59:09.:59:13.

will give chase. Evans comes across. Foul by Evans, free-kick to Spurs.

:59:14.:59:17.

Yellow card for Evans. Eriksen's delivery and Foster's

:59:18.:59:29.

save. West Brom have merited a point. Nobody more than their

:59:30.:59:33.

goalkeeper, Ben Foster. Maybe, with that save from Eriksen, he's ensured

:59:34.:59:38.

that they get exactly that. First half I thought they were fantastic.

:59:39.:59:42.

We sat off them and, you know, they show what had they can do. They got

:59:43.:59:47.

goals everywhere. They have threat everywhere. They don't half work

:59:48.:59:52.

hard for their manager. Second-half we were better. Got up to the ball a

:59:53.:59:56.

little bit more. Yeah, when we scored, you know, you are thinking

:59:57.:59:59.

that, if we can just keep them out of the box as much as anything else,

:00:00.:00:04.

you could end up nicking a result. First half I think we dominated. We

:00:05.:00:12.

created a lot of chances to score and I think, my feeling is

:00:13.:00:25.

disappointed. In the same way I feel proud Of our players and their

:00:26.:00:30.

performance. Having not the best first half, the second-half they

:00:31.:00:33.

dusted themselves down. Like I say, we gave more of a show for our

:00:34.:00:37.

supporters. Everything seemed to be within reach. It was nice. It was

:00:38.:00:41.

good to go in at the break knowing I had weathered the storm almost. I

:00:42.:00:44.

thought we were probably the better team in the second-half. We were

:00:45.:00:48.

pushing for the goal as well. No, it was a decent game for the neutral as

:00:49.:00:50.

well. Another brilliant goalkeeping

:00:51.:01:00.

performance, this time from Ben Foster. Dele Alli just got in, a

:01:01.:01:03.

goal-scorer's knack of getting himself into position to score. I

:01:04.:01:09.

think this lad is a special player, we are down about our national team

:01:10.:01:13.

but today, he had four chances in the game. With Harry Kane not

:01:14.:01:17.

playing, he's having to be that Centre forward that creates the

:01:18.:01:21.

chances. He's such an intelligent player. He knows where the ball is

:01:22.:01:25.

going to bounce. Look at him in the box there, sniffing. He finds the

:01:26.:01:36.

space, should have scored. Ben Foster did really well. It was a one

:01:37.:01:39.

versus one battle between him and Ben Fester, they were both

:01:40.:01:41.

sensational. The thing about Dele Alli, this is unbelievable, you see

:01:42.:01:44.

it better from the angle we are going to show. As it comes into him

:01:45.:01:47.

here now, he'd tease himself up with a volley and then overhead kicks it

:01:48.:01:51.

with a bicycle and I thought his performance today, this surging run

:01:52.:01:55.

from midfield, third run in, the West Brom defender couldn't stay

:01:56.:01:58.

with him and I think it's in situations like this where I think

:01:59.:02:02.

he's still got more improvement. That's the next part of his

:02:03.:02:06.

development, Gary. I don't want to be too critical on him because I

:02:07.:02:10.

love the way he keeps getting into the positions and he's not scared to

:02:11.:02:17.

miss them. That's what he's got to improve on, he's got to work on his

:02:18.:02:21.

finishing, because if he does and it's a big if, I don't want to put

:02:22.:02:25.

too much pressure on him, because I do think a lot of him and I do think

:02:26.:02:29.

he'll improve but if he keeps getting into positions and works on

:02:30.:02:32.

his goal-scoring I do think in a few years' time we could be talking

:02:33.:02:36.

about him in the same breath as Frank Lampard. Fine praise. West

:02:37.:02:41.

Brom, grinding out results, very much like Heworth Place. They were a

:02:42.:02:49.

lot better second half, they got the run around in the first half. That's

:02:50.:02:55.

one defeat in six, the third 1-1 draw in a row, Nacer Chadli, four

:02:56.:02:59.

and five, he's made the difference. They are mid-table. Do you think

:03:00.:03:03.

Tottenham have let one out of the bag their question might no, I think

:03:04.:03:07.

Tottenham will be quite happy with the deal they got.

:03:08.:03:10.

Match of the Day 2 moves to Monday this week,

:03:11.:03:13.

Torres. That is stunning. A brilliant goal.

:03:14.:03:33.

There'll be full commentary on 5 Live and the BBC Sport website.

:03:34.:03:36.

Match of the Day 2 Extra is back on Sunday lunchtime,

:03:37.:03:39.

And, it's the FA Cup first round draw on Monday,

:03:40.:03:43.

# Wake-up Maggie, I've got something to say to you #.

:03:44.:04:01.

COMMENTATOR: Superb, Andy Cole, a wonderful goal.

:04:02.:04:12.

In fog Cole, Manchester United's title. 45 and Newcastle possibly

:04:13.:04:18.

finest striker in the Premier League times. The only two sides yet to win

:04:19.:04:25.

a game this season faced each other at the Bet365 stadium as Stoke

:04:26.:04:27.

entertained bottom of the table Sunderland.

:04:28.:04:31.

You know that feeling when you're car has been in the garage too long

:04:32.:04:43.

and needs John leads? Phil Bardsley comes in at right back for the

:04:44.:04:48.

injured Glen Johnson. Mark Hughes was worried about Joe Allen, but

:04:49.:04:53.

he's fit. More injury concerns for Sunderland. Three changes, Rodwell

:04:54.:04:57.

in midfield, Van Aanholt at left-back, and with injuries,

:04:58.:05:00.

Djilobodji plays alongside O Shea. Arnautovic is after it, in the

:05:01.:05:21.

sunshine. Boney is there, good tackle. -- Bony is there, good

:05:22.:05:29.

tackle. A 1-2 blade with the referee. Given away by Sunderland's

:05:30.:05:38.

N'Dong. The angle is too acute. Joe Allen hits Stoke in front in the

:05:39.:05:42.

eighth minute of the game. Patients from Arnautovic, decisive cross in

:05:43.:05:50.

and even little Joe Allen can meet that with his head. He scored in the

:05:51.:05:57.

last international break and puts Stoke in front against Sunderland

:05:58.:06:00.

and they are on the front foot already. Well, if Sunderland have

:06:01.:06:04.

any thoughts of staying largely on the defensive and at least holding

:06:05.:06:10.

out for a draw here today, that has to change their perspective.

:06:11.:06:21.

McNair, that's a great ball forward. Defoe holds back. Khazri looking for

:06:22.:06:28.

Defoe, what a challenge from Shawcross. They goal saving

:06:29.:06:40.

challenge. Khazri had the vision, watching my Defoe was going. Very

:06:41.:06:45.

close to 1-1, if it hadn't been for Shawcross. He doesn't look

:06:46.:06:50.

especially happy, Mark Hughes, but his side is performing well today.

:06:51.:06:57.

And they are in front. That's poor, Arnautovic scampers clear.

:06:58.:07:03.

Oh, goodness! That looks a very good pass from Bony. Good cross in. The

:07:04.:07:14.

Austrian couldn't quite get enough of a touch on it. Almost 2-0.

:07:15.:07:25.

Shaqiri forces Bony wide. Well played. Appeals for handball. Here's

:07:26.:07:52.

Whelan, Bony. The threat of a second Stoke goal. Shaqiri. N'Dong was

:07:53.:07:59.

careless. Here's another chance. Goodness

:08:00.:08:10.

gracious. What a great save by Pickford. Pieters was in twice. Here

:08:11.:08:17.

was the shout for handball. Goodness. Well, O Shea waved his

:08:18.:08:28.

left arm at it. There was a hand raised there. Two minutes have been

:08:29.:08:32.

added. In, 2-0 to Stoke, two goals by Joe

:08:33.:08:50.

Allen. He certainly wasn't bought as a goal-scorer, but he's proving as

:08:51.:08:55.

such. Thursday header from Shawcross, clear, Allen first time,

:08:56.:09:03.

brilliant. Having to get past a couple of bodies, doesn't matter,

:09:04.:09:11.

they are the ones... The shot was true. Movement, great pass, Pieters.

:09:12.:09:20.

Good save. Another good save. So close to 3-0. Here's the save

:09:21.:09:35.

from Pickford. Bony, good, good save, a strong left arm and there

:09:36.:09:43.

was the follow-up plot. Sunderland fans still giving great support to

:09:44.:09:45.

their team. Jones didn't quite take that

:09:46.:10:02.

properly but she threads it through to Watmore. This could be 2-1.

:10:03.:10:12.

Cameron to Pieters. A lovely return. Pieters gain. -- again. Too deep.

:10:13.:10:38.

A third goal for Stoke would be richly deserved. Oh, my word. How

:10:39.:10:51.

close was that to a third? He's beaten the goalkeeper, but not the

:10:52.:10:53.

crossbar. A great effort. We've got to act together, in

:10:54.:11:02.

fairness the last three games there's been a distinct change in

:11:03.:11:07.

our levels and what we've been able to produce, and today, clearly it

:11:08.:11:11.

was about the performance, but the result was the key thing from us. We

:11:12.:11:15.

need to improve all-round, we've known that, but I think there are

:11:16.:11:20.

small signs and it wouldn't be noticeable to people who do not

:11:21.:11:23.

watch is that often but when you are taking training every day and

:11:24.:11:26.

watching them train, we try to make them better, we are trying to make

:11:27.:11:30.

them better with a really experienced team today and that's no

:11:31.:11:32.

excuse, because you're only judged on your games but hopefully the boys

:11:33.:11:38.

who play will get better. Joe, how good are you going to be when you

:11:39.:11:42.

get properly fit? Things seem to be falling for me at the moment so I

:11:43.:11:46.

can't complain, it's great to get a couple more today and a win and a

:11:47.:11:51.

clean sheet, you can't ask for more. The first brace of his career, he's

:11:52.:11:56.

becoming a goal-scoring machine and he plays a vital part. He does, out

:11:57.:12:01.

of a slow start of the season, a poor start the season, he's probably

:12:02.:12:06.

been Stoke's best player. I've been surprised by that position he has

:12:07.:12:10.

been playing, you'd normally associate playing holding midfield

:12:11.:12:13.

but Mark Hughes has seen something working with him day in, day out, he

:12:14.:12:16.

anticipates things well in the box the last couple of games

:12:17.:12:31.

when he has scored the goals it's the anticipation of where the ball

:12:32.:12:34.

is going to end up that has got him into these goal-scoring positions.

:12:35.:12:35.

This is a fantastic technique. Scored one with his head, one with

:12:36.:12:38.

his left foot. As it comes to the edge of the box, look at the

:12:39.:12:41.

technique as he gets his left foot over the ball, through a ruck of

:12:42.:12:44.

players and this would have been the perfect hat-trick. This with the

:12:45.:12:46.

right foot was probably the easiest chance out of them all. He's playing

:12:47.:12:50.

fantastically well. He's not 100% fit, so Stoke, is a shrewd signing.

:12:51.:12:57.

The season started October, Stoke will challenge for Europe every

:12:58.:13:02.

season! Sunderland is seen to start badly consistently, they've done it

:13:03.:13:05.

again. They are really struggling. I get the feeling David Moyes didn't

:13:06.:13:10.

sign as many players as he wanted to sign. You can't keep flirting with

:13:11.:13:14.

relegation like they have, year in, year out, and expect to get away

:13:15.:13:17.

with it and not find the players that needed to be signed. They are

:13:18.:13:22.

in serious trouble. The great escape might be required.

:13:23.:13:25.

It's five games unbeaten for Crystal Palace.

:13:26.:13:26.

They hosted a West Ham side who've made their worst start

:13:27.:13:29.

Jonathan Pearce was at Selhurst Park.

:13:30.:13:34.

James Tomkins, who played two and 43 games in ten years meets his old

:13:35.:13:47.

side, with Benteke the main threat. Cresswell makes his first hammers

:13:48.:13:50.

appearance of the season. Land is easy and Simone Zaza are recalled.

:13:51.:13:58.

-- Lanzini. Nine of the last 15 sides at this stage have gone down.

:13:59.:14:04.

Slaven Bilic has been working through the international break with

:14:05.:14:08.

those members of his squad who didn't go away. He says he's out one

:14:09.:14:12.

or two of the problems they've had this season. Cresswell on the

:14:13.:14:19.

attack. Find the side netting. Such an important boost for West Ham that

:14:20.:14:25.

Cresswell is back. If he maintains his form of the last two seasons he

:14:26.:14:29.

could be pushing for an England place before long. Benteke is about

:14:30.:14:35.

to complete his hat-trick against Gibraltar, a fine block by Noble.

:14:36.:14:42.

Here's penchant, Bex Outram Zaha, drags it, a big early chance for

:14:43.:14:49.

Crystal Palace. Hasn't scored enough goals in his career. Scored about

:14:50.:14:55.

one in every ten games for Crystal Palace. Crystal Palace haven't won

:14:56.:15:00.

in their last seven all capital clashes and that run has undermined

:15:01.:15:04.

the whole season last season. Whipped away cleanly to Cresswell.

:15:05.:15:11.

Payet back to the full-back. In a game, Palace have allowed him to

:15:12.:15:17.

turn. Not best practice that, into the near post, Lanzini. It's been

:15:18.:15:22.

coming. 18 minutes gone, Crystal Palace nil, West Ham one, West Ham

:15:23.:15:28.

deserve it. I move of patience and precision and in the end lovely

:15:29.:15:32.

finish. From the minute Crystal Palace allowed Payet to turn and

:15:33.:15:36.

country, they were in trouble. Too much space, find the full-back,

:15:37.:15:40.

lovely low first-time cross in, fizzing into the box and edged

:15:41.:15:45.

across the goalkeeper by Lanzini. Second of the season, scored home

:15:46.:15:49.

and away against Crystal Palace last season and he has another. That's

:15:50.:15:54.

the 100th goal West Ham United have scored under Slaven Bilic.

:15:55.:15:58.

Puncheon in support. Making the run. No free-kick given. The comes to

:15:59.:16:04.

Benteke. That's a penalty. The referee got the first one right I

:16:05.:16:13.

believe he got the second one right. Ogbonna unhappy. First one a coming

:16:14.:16:17.

together. It unsettled West Ham more than it did Crystal Palace. He

:16:18.:16:23.

catches Benteke. The referee had no doubts. Two of Benteke's last five

:16:24.:16:27.

penalties have been low to the right hand side. Oh, he's put that

:16:28.:16:34.

horribly wide. That is a retched penalty. Body shape all wrong.

:16:35.:16:38.

Slanting away from it. Opens up his body. Standing foot slips. Away it

:16:39.:16:48.

goes. Relief for West Ham United and that is it so frustrating for

:16:49.:16:55.

Crystal Palace. Townsend. Not in the game enough, Townsend. Here's Ward.

:16:56.:17:05.

McArthur in behind. A brilliant save or did it just go wide. The

:17:06.:17:09.

half-time whistles blows. Just off the outside of the post. I thought

:17:10.:17:14.

Adrian got a hand to it. One moment he is missing a penalty, the next

:17:15.:17:27.

denied by the woodwork. Zaza. He's exposed himself, left himself in

:17:28.:17:31.

no-man's land. Blocked from his old team-mate. Good goalkeeping. Lovely

:17:32.:17:39.

movement by West Ham again, Zaza. To Lanzini. He to stay there. It lacked

:17:40.:17:47.

finesse. Rain teaming down. Good for West Ham so far.

:17:48.:17:53.

Ogbonna. -- Obiang. Deflected the way through. West Ham have a corner.

:17:54.:18:04.

West Ham looking for their girs away success of the campaign. Payet will

:18:05.:18:13.

swing this away. Antonio. Dangerous in these situations. It's off the

:18:14.:18:17.

line by Puncheon. Antonio was the danger in there, again as he has

:18:18.:18:26.

been in so many set-pieces. Cabaye comes across. Goes down too easy for

:18:27.:18:34.

the referee. He gets a yellow. Cabaye was furious straightaway.

:18:35.:18:39.

This is it. There was contact, minimal contact much he goes down

:18:40.:18:48.

flamboyantly and gets the yellow. Zaha on the outside of Cresswell.

:18:49.:18:52.

He's on a yellow Cresswell. He has to watch things now. Zaha, I think

:18:53.:18:58.

he's going to go here. A second yellow carded followed by a red in a

:18:59.:19:03.

matter of moments. Booked for simulation. West Ham will argue that

:19:04.:19:10.

one, I think. He's holding on, holding on. That's a bookable,

:19:11.:19:20.

certainly. Really were the two instances enough for a red card

:19:21.:19:28.

overall. Cresswell sent off. Fourth Palace West Ham game in a row

:19:29.:19:31.

there's been a red card. He took a risk there. Got away with it,

:19:32.:19:35.

Townsend needs to get it back in early. In it goes. Great save!

:19:36.:19:41.

Brilliant goalkeeping to deny Connor Wickham. Got across his goal having

:19:42.:19:50.

punched it away. Spread eagle. Securing the three points for West

:19:51.:19:55.

Ham United. We opened really well. We created some really good chances

:19:56.:19:58.

when it was possible, we also kept the ball. We were very confident,

:19:59.:20:03.

especially after we scored the goal because we are not great in

:20:04.:20:07.

confidence because of results. They affected us, but when you score a

:20:08.:20:10.

goal nothing can give you more confidence than that, you know. I

:20:11.:20:14.

think we did a really good performance and we deserved to win.

:20:15.:20:18.

West Ham did OK in the first half they played well. But we are

:20:19.:20:23.

disappointed with ourselves. We know we let it slip here today. We should

:20:24.:20:26.

have at least got a draw. I think we should have won if we'd been at our

:20:27.:20:31.

game today. Cresswell, what a shame the way it ended for him, what was

:20:32.:20:35.

your view? I think he was harsh done by. The first one and the second

:20:36.:20:39.

one. The referee has given the decision. We are down to 10-men with

:20:40.:20:44.

15 minutes left. We had to dig in, we did. We got a fantastic result

:20:45.:20:49.

for us. Straight in with Aaron Cresswell. Harshly done,

:20:50.:20:54.

exceptionally harsh. Absurd decisions. It two terrible

:20:55.:20:59.

decisions. Cabaye on Cresswell. He books him for diving. Ridiculous. He

:21:00.:21:05.

clips him. I don't care if it's minimal contact. He clips him.

:21:06.:21:09.

Should be a penalty. No way it's a dive. 55 seconds later. One-on-one

:21:10.:21:14.

against Zaha. The linesman gives that one. The referee consults with

:21:15.:21:19.

him. I'm not sure it's a foul. I am, it's not a foul, let alone a yellow

:21:20.:21:25.

card. Two terrible decisions. OK. It was pretty obvious that West Ham had

:21:26.:21:29.

to improve defensively. They most certainly did? They have been taken

:21:30.:21:34.

criticism defensively over the last few weeks, rightly so. He changed

:21:35.:21:37.

the system today, three at the back. They were much more organised,

:21:38.:21:48.

Noble, Reid, they were prepared to work at it and stick together. Going

:21:49.:21:52.

forward. Big plus having Cresswell back. He added that to the game.

:21:53.:21:57.

Beautiful ball in. Worth their win today. Crystal Palace will rue the

:21:58.:22:01.

penalty miss. They were better in the second-half? Better in the sect

:22:02.:22:08.

hand. Bad defeat for them. Benteke penalty miss affected their

:22:09.:22:11.

confidence. They didn't like that we thought they would. We have one more

:22:12.:22:15.

goal to show you. It's been scored by a certain Alan Shearer. Last game

:22:16.:22:19.

ever, apparently! What do you think, Phillip? Fantastic movement at the

:22:20.:22:23.

far-post. Trademark celebration. It's the movement at the far-post

:22:24.:22:26.

that impressed me. Typical Alan Shearer. Pulling on to the

:22:27.:22:29.

full-back. I've been there at the back post with him. What a finish

:22:30.:22:35.

that is! Never lose it, Gary. There he goes. Raised loads of money. I'm

:22:36.:22:40.

still in bits. My body is killing me. I thought you you were moving

:22:41.:22:46.

stiffly. Thank you very much, indeed.

:22:47.:22:51.

Manchester City stay top of the table, but only on goal

Stoke move up a place thanks to their victory over

A look at the back pages of the Sunday papers. The Mail on Sunday

Arsenal. The Sunday Times focuses on the double penalty miss by

Manchester City. The other half of Manchester that the Sun on Sunday
