Crystal Palace defender Joachim Andersen branded Liverpool’s Darwin Nunez “really stupid” after the forward was sent off on his Anfield debut for a headbutt during last night’s 1-1 draw. Nunez, a £64million summer signing from Benfica, had scored off the bench in impressive cameos against Manchester City in the Community Shield and at Craven Cottage in the Reds’ Premier League opener against Fulham, and with Roberto Firmino missing was handed his first start by Jurgen Klopp on Monday.

Perhaps after waiting 23 years to host a Premier League game, it was written in the stars that Nottingham Forest would win this match against West Ham. It certainly felt like that at times and, when Hammers boss David Moyes reviews this game, he will be wondering how his side left the City Ground with nothing. Over the course of the 90 minutes, the Hammers did everything but score.
Thomas Tuchel and Antonio Conte have both given their take on a fiery London derby that saw both men sent off in a 2-2 draw between Chelsea and Tottenham. The first flare-up came after Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg’s shot from long range put Spurs level early in the second half, which earned both coaches and a couple of assistants yellow cards. At full time, following Tottenham’s second equaliser via Harry Kane, Tuchel and Conte were again sent off after the Chelsea boss took exception to the manner of his counterpart’s handshake.

Graeme Souness insists he does not regret a word of his comments following Chelsea’s dramatic 2-2 with Tottenham on Sunday. The Sky Sports pundit was criticised for suggesting the fiery scenes at Stamford Bridge “showed it was a man’s game all of a sudden” in reference to referee Anthony Taylor’s more liberal approach. Former England Women’s international Karen Carney was sat beside Souness on pundit duty in west London, with the former Liverpool captain then adding: “I think we’ve got our football back, as I would enjoy football … men at it, blow-for-blow, and the referee letting them get on with it.”

Beasley's record from just eight rides at the renewal is nothing short of remarkable. Just like his previous two winners, Beasley was handy from the off and this year he was able to hold off Good Earth by a length with course specialist Mark's Choice third from 10lb out of the handicap.

Antonio Conte's men enjoyed a frighteningly good start to their Premier League season against Southampton last weekend, winning the match 4-1.

Conte made progress in the ensuing months and sealed Champions League qualification by finishing fourth.
