Ben Foster is the hero once more for Watford with a fantastic save to repel a Fleck effort.
Mason Greenwood starts for Man United today, while Pogba is left on the bench. Newcastle start Dwight Gayle.
The hero we all deserve.
Arsenal have been on top since equalising at Bournemouth but they have suffered a blow as it looks like Sokratis needs to go off.
A shock on the cards at Stamford Bridge. The ball deflects into the path of Redmond who beats Kepa to it and sends a shot into the back of the net.
Burnley have been superb at the back against Everton. Tarkowski and friend of the show Mee have not given the opposition strikers a sniff.
Aaron Wilbraham has now scored an own goal! Rochdale 2-2 Fleetwood. Does it count as a hat-trick?
Lacazette fails to take advantage of a perfect pass through the middle as the Frenchman hits his shot straight at the feet of Ramsdale who diverts the ball wide.
McArthur lifts a ball to the back post from the left, Kouyate sprints into the box to volley home the knockdown for his first Palace goal, ironically against his former club.
The weather at the Vitality Stadium is apocalyptic. Absolutely hammering it down.
Grealish does superbly well on the edge of the box to find space for a pass to Hourihane who curls the ball into the corner. A tad unfair on Norwich who have dominated.
Aaron Wilbraham has scored again!!! Rochdale 2-1 Fleetwood.
Now Arsenal are level. Aubameyang takes it into the box and it comes back to him a few seconds later after Nelson sends it to the back post from where Aubameyang taps the ball into the corner.
Byram almost opens the scoring for Norwich after combining with his fellow full-back, Aarons, who flings the ball across the box for the left-back but he can only head the ball wide.
Arsenal should be level! Ozil slips a delightful ball through the defence to Aubameyang who takes a poor first touch and ends up jabbing a shot at Ramsdale which the goalkeeper blocks.
From fighting to celebrations in the West Ham ranks. Antonio does well on the wing, sends a cross into the box where Snodgrass sweeps it into the net.
Maitland-Niles goes into the book. The full-back first fell over and then pulled down King as he went down.
No Christmas spirit in the West Ham dressing room.
Heaton gets down to stop a Zimmerman header to keep things level at Villa Park. Norwich have been on top throughout and are unlucky to not be ahead.
A few teams could do with this man leading the line ... but he is off back to Milan.
Macclesfield are leading against Grimsby thanks to a Joe Ironside penalty. Let’s hope they sort out their financial issues.
The game’s gone:
It will be interesting to see how Arteta reacts when it comes to substitutions. He does have Pepe at his disposal.
Aubameyang goes close! The Gabonese striker gets the ball inside the box, opens his body up and looks to curl the ball into the top corner but he sends it inches wide.
Chelsea have replaced Zouma with Mount which is an exciting substitution. Everyone else is back underway, too.
Deulofeu has just whacked a free-kick from 35 yards over the bar! Sheffield United and Watford go in level at at the break.
They’ve add five minutes on at Bramall Lane. No rest for me.
Charles Antaki offers to save us all a job: “A generous gift from the Arsenal team to all journalists, who can now recycle the ‘at least the new manager now knows the scale of the problem’ from Emery’s and Ljungberg’s debuts. Who says that the players don’t care?”
Chelsea are set to make a change at the break, with Mason Mount going through a vigorous warmup routine on the pitch. They have failed to create anything of note.
Aaron Wilbraham is 40! You have to admire his longevity.
