SOUTHAMPTON 0-1 MANCHESTER UNITED

.......................................................................................

SOUTHAMPTON 0-1 MANCHESTER UNITED

93: JOSE MOURINHO SENT OFF! He’s good for one every season. He argues with referee Craig Pawson, and is sent off for encroaching on the pitch as he exhorted his players to get back into position.

MANCHESTER CITY 5-0 CRYSTAL PALACE - DELPH

89: I’ll be honest, I forgot he played for City! Fabian Delph adds the fifth with a fantastic finish. In off the bar.

SWANSEA 1-2 WATFORD - RICHARLISON

90: Too easy for Richarlison. The Brazilian runs clear to finish emphatically off the crossbar.

STOKE 0-4 CHELSEA

88: It's almost five! Victor Moses shoots low across goal but Alvaro Morata gets it caught in his feet and can't find a fourth for himself. 

MANCHESTER CITY 4-0 CRYSTAL PALACE - AGUERO

83: Aguerrooooooooooo! Sergio Aguero heads in an inch-perfect left-wing cross from Leroy Sane.

STOKE 0-4 CHELSEA - MORATA (HAT-TRICK)

80: Who else? *That* man Alvaro Morata completes his hat-trick at the Bet365 Stadium.

EVERTON 2-1 BOURNEMOUTH - NIASSE

82: Oumar Niasse at the double for the Toffees as he taps in from close range. It looks like he’s going down in folk-law at Goodison Park now!

STOKE 0-3 CHELSEA - MORATA

79: The points look to be heading back to the capital as Alvaro Morata runs into the box and dinks it over Jack Butland and in.

EVERTON 1-1 BOURNEMOUTH - NIASSE

78: Oumar Niasse is back with a bang! The striker, who Ronald Koeman said was free to leave the club last year, has equalised. Davies rifles a ball into his feet inside the area and he hammers it past Begovic.

EVERTON 0-1 BOURNEMOUTH

71: Off the line! Mason Holgate gets on the end of a corner but Andrew Surman is there to clear. Everton starting to push with 20 minutes remaining.

SOUTHAMPTON 0-1 MANCHESTER UNITED

68: It should be game, set and match but Fraser Forster somehow manages to deny Romelu Lukaku. That’s Manchester United’s first chance of the half.

STOKE 0-2 CHELSEA

65: Peter Crouch, who’s on for Jese, is immediately into the action. He beats Gary Cahill in the air and knocks it down for Diouf, who fires over.

MANCHESTER CITY 3-0 CRYSTAL PALACE - STERLING

59: This could be a very long afternoon for Roy Hodgson’s side now. KDB is the architect again. He finds Sergio Aguero, who crosses for Raheem Sterling to convert.

SOUTHAMPTON 0-1 MANCHESTER UNITED

58: Just signs that Southampton are working their way back into this. Nathan Redmond cuts inside from the left and takes aim, but David de Gea is equal to the effort.

SWANSEA 1-1 WATFORD - ABRAHAM

56: Cometh the hour, cometh the young man. Tammy Abraham sends Watford level, tapping in after Wilfried Bony's shot is saved.

MANCHESTER CITY 2-0 CRYSTAL PALACE - STERLING

50: Ah, maybe that has opened the floodgates. Kevin De Bruyne slips it forward to Leroy Sane, who plays a cracking pass to Raheem Sterling to convert.

MANCHESTER CITY 1-0 CRYSTAL PALACE

50: Will the floodgates open? It might sound stupid to say that Crystal Palace were fortunate to conceded before half-time - but it means Pep Guardiola’s side couldn’t build-up a head of steam.

EVERTON 0-1 BOURNEMOUTH - KING

48: Things go from bad to worse for Everton as Jose King nets his first Premier League goal of the season after a brilliant run and finish.

45: We’re back underway everywhere now folks. A few more goals wouldn’t go amiss...

SWANSEA 0-1 WATFORD

SOUTHAMPTON 0-1 MANCHESTER UNITED

.......................................................................................

MANCHESTER CITY 1-0 CRYSTAL PALACE - SANE

44: It took 44 minutes, but Manchester City area ahead. And it’s that man again, Leroy Sane. The winger brilliantly lifts the ball over his marker and finishes at the near post. David Silva with the assist.

STOKE 0-2 CHELSEA 

43: Brilliant attempt at an overhead kick from Diouf just goes wide. Few complaining that his boot was high, but Mike Dean isn’t interested.

EVERTON 0-0 BOURNEMOUTH

40: Wayne Rooney elbowed by Simon Francis. No penalty given. Blood streaming down Rooney's right eye. The Goodison Park faithful are not best pleased with referee Martin Atkinson.

MANCHESTER CITY 0-0 CRYSTAL PALACE

38: David Silva and Leroy Sane combine but Sergio Aguero scoops over from six yards. Fantasy managers across the nation have their head in hands. 

STOKE 0-2 CHELSEA 

35: Shaqiri's free-kick hits the wall and deflects for a corner which is then just ahead of Fletcher running in. One back for the Potters would make things interesting.

33: Well it’s all going swimmingly for the away sides today. Spurs won earlier, and now there’s three of the six remaining fixtures going to the visitors.

STOKE 0-2 CHELSEA - PEDRO

29: And one becomes two. It’s all a walk in the park for Chelsea now. Stoke are the architects of their own downfall as Darren Fletcher chests it to Pedro, who whips it into the far corner. Clinical.

MANCHESTER CITY 0-0 CRYSTAL PALACE

30: It should be 1-0 to the visitors. Andros Townsend’s shot falls kindly for Ruben Loftus-Cheek, but he dr

SOUTHAMPTON 0-1 MANCHESTER UNITED

28: Marcus Rashford lines up a free-kick around 25-yards away from goal. The youngsters steps up… just wide! Southampton’s bubble has well and truly been burst.

BURNLEY 0-0 HUDDERSFIELD

25: Chris Wood's header from Stephen Ward's cross goes just wide of the goal! Sean Dyche’s side are firmly on top at the moment.

MANCHESTER CITY 0-0 CRYSTAL PALACE

23: Oh hello! Ruben Loftus-Cheek takes the game by the scruff of the neck and slams one against the post from distance.

SOUTHAMPTON 0-1 MANCHESTER UNITED - LUKAKU

20: It’s been all Southampton but Manchester United are ahead. Romelu Lukaku chests down Ashley Young’s cross before turning and firing one at Fraser Forster. The keeper saves but Lukaku reacts quickly to poke home the rebound.

BURNLEY 0-0 HUDDERSFIELD

19: Chris Wood has bagged eight goals for four different clubs against Huddersfield. No chances today though, it’s not been a cracker.

STOKE 0-1 CHELSEA

17: Stoke have managed to compose themselves after that 88 second goal from Alvaro Morata. Chelsea are bossing possession, but no real chances.

SWANSEA 0-1 WATFORD - GRAY

13: There’s the breakthrough. Watford, who look to have bounced back from last week’s 6-0 thrashing, have taken the lead at the Liberty Stadium. Andre Gray scores his first Watford goal from 6 yards, smashing in a loose ball after Carrillo cross.

EVERTON 0-0 BOURNEMOUTH

15: Dominic Calvert-Lewin, who’ve I’ve put in my Fantasy team, almost picks up where he left off on Wednesday but his header skips past the post.

SOUTHAMPTON 0-0 MANCHESTER UNITED 

14: Manchester United aren’t having it all their own way today. Southampton have started nicely and have enjoyed the better chances. Nathan Redmond is the latest to lash it narrowly wide.

MANCHESTER CITY 0-0 CRYSTAL PALACE

12: Post! A dangerous Kevin De Bruyne ball-in is clipped by Sakho against his own post. Almost a spectacular own goal!

BURNLEY 0-0 HUDDERSFIELD

10: Robbie Brady curls a decent free-kick into the box; Chris Wood glances a header wide but the offside flag was up. As you were…

MANCHESTER CITY 0-0 CRYSTAL PALACE

8: Manchester on the front-foot from the off here with Crystal Palace pinned back. Schlupp's shot at the other end is charged down.

STOKE 0-1 CHELSEA

7: It’s all going on in Stoke. Shaqiri finds the attacking Diouf, but he’s caught in two minds and can’t reach Jese with his cross.

SOUTHAMPTON 0-0 MANCHESTER UNITED

5: Nathan Redmond does well down the left and sends a cross into the area but Phil Jones is there to clear before Shane Long can connect.

STOKE 0-1 CHELSEA - MORATA

1: Wow, now that’s one hell of a start! Alvaro Morata collects a beautiful 40-yard pass from Cesar Azpilicueta and comfortably slots past Jack Butland. Could be a cricket score at the Bet365 Stadium today with Mark Hughes' makeshift defence.

1: We're underway folks! I've got a real feeling we're going to see a mountain of goals today.

14:56: I see that Pep Guardiola is playing havoc with people’s Fantasy Football teams. He’s dropped Gabriel Jesus to the bench with Sergio Aguero playing the lone striking role.

14:52: Everton to kickstart their season against Bournemouth?

Ronald Koeman has been suitably unimpressed with his team's recent form. Prior to the midweek cup win over Sunderland, Ronald Koeman had presided over four defeats in which the Toffees had failed to score and had conceded 12 times.

Though they currently reside in the relegation zone, a run of league fixtures against Bournemouth, Burnley and Brighton should offer him hope they can propel themselves up the table.

14:48: Can Aguero become Manchester City's all-time record scorer?

Sergio Aguero begins this round of fixtures just two goals shy of equalling Eric Brook's record City haul of 177 so a repeat of last weekend's hat-trick at Watford will ensure the Argentinian, who moved to England in 2011, makes club history.

The prospect of him doing so this weekend is enhanced by the fact Roy Hodgson's Crystal Palace, still without a league point or a goal in their five fixtures so far, are the visitors for free-scoring City.

14:45: Good afternoon folks, welcome to our LIVE coverage of the Premier League.

I’ve just teleported myself from the London Stadium where Tottenham collected three points after a testing 3-2 victory over West Ham.

If the rest of today’s action averages five goals per-game, I’ll be very happy indeed. Actually, that could easily happen at the Etihad…
