Palace slip past Ipswich 1-0 after a splendid second half goal by Mateta. Big three points for the Eagles fighting at the bottom of the table.

West Ham may be in need of the new manager bounce as they were a complete mess under Lopetegui, getting cleaned out by the Ruud Dude's of Leicester.

Vardy is probably my favorite non-Spurs PL player of all time. My favorite fact about him is that he has played in every round of the FA Cup.

Love Vardy. He's what a footballer should be.

The corpse of Ashley Young puts Everton up early at home against Wolves, then Tarkowski has a header waved off for a bullshit offside call. Goodison is the bear pit that it hasn't been much lately, crowd is in rude humour.

Young's free kick from about 30 yards makes him the oldest player in PL history to score a direct free kick.

Mo's pass on the turn there was spectacular, but his touch was slack in the box.

Class & efficiency from Isak. The only way to stop that one us to prevent the pass in the first place.

A screamer from Mangala makes it 2-0 Toffees - a problematic scoreline for us this season.

Gomez bailed out there by Kelleher. And then VVD with a cheap shot on Gordon. No tears there.

Jack Stephens with a red for a slight tug on Marc Cucurella’s hair. Harsh to call that violent conduct but a silly thing to do in the first place.

DCL off his interminable schneid to head in off a corner. Boxed out Jose Sa, who has been wincing and getting up slowly the whole game. 3-0 Everton.

Oh Darwin! A bigger pair of shoes and that's in.

Mo with beautiful control to keep that ball in play. Pay the man.

If you have to stop the game because Gomez need to take a knee far taking one off the side of his head...then Gome needs to come off and get checked.

Big Virg should have hit Gordon harder.

Can't let Bruno turn and take 3 touches while he measures a pass in the attacking half.

Thank god for the flag there.

I think the top up from Quansah to Trent should be huge.

Darwin is the worst. Infuriating.
He needs to go. He’s useless as a striker. Misses everything, wanders offside, and embarrasses the shirt by falling over anytime the wind blows.

That last bit would make him prime Newcastle material, to be fair.

Oh the ref has some balls to blow the whistle there. And give Pope a yellow for complaining about it. Wild night.

California. Duh.
Ref fell for a few Newcastle flops and let a lot of grabs on Liverpool shirts go, but can't really say either team deserved to lose that one.

Kelleher has stolen more points in this spell than he’s lost, but it hurts to drop two points to these thugs.

I try not to let football put me too much up or down, but, seeing Salah carry the team to touching distance of a huge three points, only to be done by a goalkeeping brain fart...that does irk me somewhat.

Now rooting for Man Utd to show us they're the biggest club in the world.

if we were waiting for the "when do you go back to Allison?" moment, that might be it. Harsh, surely but it cost them 2 points.

Poor first half for Tottenham. Sluggish, lack of quality passing in the final third. Kulusevski and Maddison trying to make things happen but it's pissing in the wind. Some players jogging about like it's light training, they must be cream crackered or cannae be arsed.

Bournemouth have been really solid. They've turned up, played their football, deserved to go in a goal up.
