Chelsea 2 v 2 West Brom Eto'o (45), Long (60), Sessegnon (68), Hazard (90)
First Half: Oscar free kick tipped over top corner. Goal! 1-0, Eto'o taps in from close range after Hazard's shot is parried.
Half Time: 1-0.
Second Half: Long header hits the post. Goal! 1-1, Long heads in from close range after McCauley's header is parried. Goal! 1-2, Sessegnon long range strike with left foot beats Cech. Mata effort finds the side netting. Willian heads over the bar. Brunt blazes over the bar. Penalty! Ramires fouled in the box by Reid. Goal! 2-2, Hazard rolls the penalty into the bottom corner.
Full Time: 2-2.
My Opinion:
My man of the match was Long. Chelsea were very fortunate to have taken a point from the game. After scoring late in the first half it seemed as though Chelsea would stroll to victory but some poor defensive errors cost them dearly. Cech in paricular will feel he could have done better to keep out Sessegnon's goal. West Brom deserved to win the game but were denied by a very dodgy penalty decision in the final few minutes of the match.
Liverpool 4 v 0 Fulham Amorebieta (og,23), Skrtel (26), Suarez (36,54)

Henderson has a shot that deflects over the bar. Goal! 2-0, Skrtel heads at the near post from a corner. Coutinho has a shot tipped over the bar. Goal! 3-0, Suarez slots home from a Henderson through ball.

Full Time: 4-0.
My Opinion:
My man of the match was Gerrard. Liverpool deserved to win and were the dominant team. It really could have been more for Liverpool but scoring four goals was impressive enough. Fulham were defensively very woeful and got the battering that was inevitably coming their way.
Southampton 4 v 1 Hull City Schneiderlin (16), Lambert (30), Lallana (37), Sagbo (55), Davis (88)
First Half: Goal! 1-0, Schneiderlin heads into the top corner. Penalty! Lallana fouled in the box by Harper. Goal! 2-0, Lambert scores from the penalty spot. Goal! 3-0, Lallana runs through the defence and slots a low curling shot into the far bottom corner.
Half Time: 3-0.

Full Time: 4-1.
My Opinion:
My man of the match was Lallana. Southampton were clearly the dominant team and were fully deserving of their victory. They continued their fine run of form with an impressive scoreline. Hull were outshone during the first half and although they scored a decent goal, that was all they had to show for their efforts.
Norwich 3 v 1 West Ham Morrison (32), Hooper (54), Snodgrass (72), Fer (90)
First Half: Nolan has a shot saved. Downing has a shot blocked. Demel heads onto the bar from a corner. Goal! 0-1, Morrison taps in from close range Nolan's pass.
Half Time: 0-1.
Second Half: Penalty! Jaaskalainen fouls Hooper inside the penalty area. Goal! 1-1, Hooper scores from the penalty spot. Howson hits the bar with a long range thump. Goal! 2-1, Snodgrass scores a free kick into the near side. Goal! 3-1, Fer slots low into the far bottom corner.
Full Time: 3-1.
My Opinion:
My man of the match was Snodgrass. Norwich were poor in the first half but were vastly better in the second. A much needed win for Norwich who will be hoping to build upon that result. West Ham were decent in the first half but were let down by costly defensive errors in the second.
Aston Villa 2 v 0 Cardiff City Bacuna (70), Kozak (84)
First Half: El Ahmadi has a long range strike saved. Kozak close to heading into his own goal. Benteke strikes just wide of the post. Tonev blazes wide.
Half Time: 0-0.
Second Half: Kozak has a header well saved. Benteke heads just over the bar. Goal! 1-0, Bacuna scores with a free kick that curled around the wall. Goal! 2-0, Kozak heads in at the near post.
Full Time: 2-0.
My Opinion:
My man of the match was Kozak. Villa deserved to win the match as they probed throughout the game. Some strong performances from the likes of Kozak and Benteke proved to be the difference. Cardiff struggled and failed to create any meaningful chances which cost them.
Crystal Palace 0 v 0 Everton
First Half: Osman puts an effort just wide of the post. Mirallas has a long range low strike turned round the post. Thomas has a curling long range shot well saved. Chamakh heads wide.
Half Time: 0-0.
Second Half: Thomas chips the ball into the side netting. Jagielka heads onto the bar. Distin heads just wide. Deulofeu curls a long range effort wide.
Full Time: 0-0.
My Opinion:
My man of the match was Jagielka. Palace really should have won that match but were constantly denied. However, it was a valuable point against a good Everton side. Everton themselves were unable to take any of their chances and had their moments to win the match as well. Overall a fair result.
Best Goal of the Day: Lallana, Snodgrass, Bacuna. Winner: Lallana
