    From OPTA

    • The Toffees registered more shots on target in the opening 14 seconds of the second half than they did in the entire first half (0).

    Here are some others:

    • Everton have won nine their last 11 European games (inc. qualifiers), losing the other two matches.
    • For the second consecutive campaign under Ronald Koeman, Everton have not lost any of their opening six games of the season in all competitions (W4 D2).
    • Everton have now progressed from each of their last two Europa League qualifying phases (also in 2009/10 under David Moyes).
    • Josip Radosevic's opener ended an Everton run of 313 minutes without conceding in European competition under Ronald Koeman.
    • After conceding all four penalties he faced at Sunderland (all in the Premier League), Jordan Pickford saved the first penalty he faced as an Everton player.

    Sounds like a comfortable win by Chelsea today over Everton. So we are level on points with them, wouldn't mind finishing the season in that position (provided we both weren't relegated of course :emoticon-0100-smile )

    Watched it all

    No desire from the Gooners

    If our players had played like that, we'd be in melt down.

    Wonder if Wenger wishes he'd gone in the Summer?

    I see Chris Wood started repaying his fee today. I hope the Wembley jinx is still there on Sept 16th

    See that Cardiff fans are getting excited - from their forum

    "Interesting stat on BBC Wales just a minute ago, and they did state that its madness to be thinking about promotion after five games, but here is that stat:

    Cardiff City today became the 5th team ever to win their first five games in the second tier of the English football pyramid.

    The other 4 who have done it, went on too win promotion."

    Arsenal have to be the wimpiest collection of flat-track footballers in the prem. Other than Ramseys pair, there's not a single bollock in the entire squad.

    Big mistake keeping Sanchez imo.

    I'm a bit concerned about the turn over of players the past 6 months . Carroll , Narshing , Olsson , Ayew , Abraham , Mesa , Clucas and we will probably sign a few more before the window shuts . 9 players , not saying they aren't good signings , it's just getting them rowing the same way . Another concern is the new formation of late . 5 at the back and 3 up front only leaves 2 midfield spots with midfielders coming out of our ears . Wingers are almost obsolete , we've almost abandoned the center of the pitch and the wing . Hope it works out after spending years with 5 midfielders
