Weekend Premier League

[jonahjones]

Well, wouldn't you just know it?!

Stephen Hunt, a hate figure for all Chelsea fans who has been consistently booed since the game began, scores the first Premier League goal of the new season on his debut to give Hull City a shock lead at Stamford Bridge.

A spectacular free-kick from Didier Drogba brings Chelsea an equaliser.

What a free kick that was jj....never a foul mind.

Are you confident tonight mate? :)

[Win2Win]

Doesn't seem that long since the end of the season......I wonder if constant punching of myself in the nuts will slow time down....

Can't wait to see Liverpool draw tomorrow

[scoobydoo]

Drogba scores with a chip in injury time to make it 2-1...was it a cross...who knows?

I think he is player of immense ability but it was a cross all day long for me!

I think he is player of immense ability but it was a cross all day long for me!

And he's just admitted it!

Not really mate, I expect us to get turned-over.

Exceptionally disappointed at the lack of any first-team new faces. We already had one of the smallest squads last season and have since lost Valente, Van der Meyde, Castillo, Jacobsen and Ruddy as well as four teenagers who started the first game of last season on the substitute's bench. Throw into the mix the injuries to the spine of the team - Jagielka, Arteta and Yakubu as well as Anichebe and perennial sicknotes Saha and Vaughan, and it is not so difficult to see why your average Everton fan is a little deflated.

After the Cup Final, Evertonians breathed a sigh of relief because we thought that we would never see Tony Hibbert in an Everton shirt again and Osman would be restricted to more of a squad player. The way things have panned out, they are both likely to be permanent fixtures in the starting line-up.

Moyes has consistenty performed miracles over the years on a shoestring, however, logic says that this can't go on forever and I think that this could be the year that it goes belly-up. If it does, it will be purely down to the manager being denied the funds to strengthen.

It wouldn't surprise me if he walked away and I wouldn't blame him because he deserves so much better.

Don't get me started on the mind-numbing boredom that is the Lescott saga!

A cracking strike from Denilson gives Arsenal the lead away to Everton.

[jonahjones]

Debutant Thomas Vermaelen extends Arsenal's lead at Goodison Park.

[yerotsluap]

Not looking too good for your boys jonah

[jonahjones]

William Gallas heads a third for Asrenal before half-time.

[scoobydoo]

Not really mate, I expect us to get turned-over.

Oh dear...looks like you were right jj....poor defending for both set piece goals. Denilson's goal was very good and couldn't have done much eh. Those 5 players that are injured you named are very much needed based on this 45 mins. Arsenals movement is very good but you could have had a couple of goals yourself if the ball had bounced the right way I thought. Always the 2nd half mate.

[jonahjones]

Cesc Fabregas adds to Everton's misery.

[Win2Win]

It'll be the only time of the season Arsenal go top :)

[jonahjones]

Cesc Fabregas adds to Everton's misery.

And does it again.

[jonahjones]

Eduardo makes it 6 (six).

[yerotsluap]

At least it cant get much worse this season jonah

[jonahjones]

Louis Saha puts Everton back in the game in injury time.
