An exciting few minutes. Welbeck scores against his boyhood team and then Rashford just offsides on what would have been a crazy second effort goal off his heel.

Poor poor poor defending by Utd to give up the game winner at 96’. Left the back post completely unguarded. 2 attackers there, 0 defenders.

João Pedro (edit: not newest signing) comes on scores in the 95th to put them up 2-1.

The initial corner was defended well enough, but Brighton recycled too quickly for them.

Everton under siege early. Couple of good saves from Pickford.

Yourh team product Roman Dixon gets the start at RB for Everton

Everton really struggling. Depleted by injuries. Keane starting, Evertons defense is horrible with him. GC and xGC both much higher. He’s slow error prone and can’t read the game

Spurs all over Everton at the moment. Kulusevski does brilliantly to tee up Bissouma, who hits a screamer past Pickford.

João Pedro, Brighton's newest signing, comes on in the 91st minute and prompty scores in the 95th to put them up 2-1.

The initial corner was defended well enough, but Brighton recycled too quickly for them.
Pretty sure that João Pedro started the match and signed for Brighton a year ago.

Van der Ven looks badly hurt. Hamstring, hyperextension, something like that. Love his game, hope he’s ok

Dyche has bern getting killed by the fans for starting old, slow veterans over our promising new acquisitions. Maybe he’s listening- Doucoure and Harrison off for Ndiaye and Lindstrom

It’s early but Savinho looks crazy good. He’s wearing Mahrez number and moves freakily like him. Very few players have started so well under Pep although he’s fallen off a bit late here

Jedi with the perfect first time through ball to send Iwobi in clear on the keeper. And Iwobi buries it. Very well done.

Bundesliga Goal Rush > EPL Goal Rush. Why does Peacock stay anchored on the MC/Ipswich game when there are two one goal games.

Jedi with some less encouraging defensive lapses since his brilliant assist - got spun around twice on the same play, bad give away in the edge of the box, and crashed into a teammate forcing a clearance out of bounds in own half. Up and down day.

That's Jedi. He is improving his all-around game. But he's a better attacking defender, than defending defender.
 

Time to Mo Vaughn

Arsenal looking fantastic vs Villa. Impressive match from Timber, who got the start today. I'd be totally fine shipping out Zinchenko, whom I've just never rated that highly despite fitting into Arteta's system pretty well.

I've been really impressed by Tielemans defense in this match. Picking the pocket of Odegaard and Saka inside the 18 a couple times.

Someone is going to get killed in Chelsea/Wolves. And by someone, I mean Nicolas Jackson. Jackson scored, taunted the home crowd which got Wolves into the game. Cunha then tied it (off an incredible Ait Nouri run) and let Jackson know it. Jackson then gave Cunha a nipple twist.

Holy cow, how does Joelinton not get a red card for clotheslining the goalie. Ah, there’s the answer, David Cootes. Who then red cards the Bournemouth coach instead.

The non-red to Joelinton is.... having trouble coming up with words to describe how unbelievably fucking bad
