Last night’s results:

Everton 1-0 Manchester City

Manchester United 2-0 Stoke

Tottenham 3-1 Wigan

Wolves 0-3 Liverpool

Swansea 1-1 Chelsea

Headlines:

Manchester United erase the three point gap at the top thanks to Darron Gibson’s strike at Goodison against rivals Manchester City and their comfortable 2-0 home win over Stoke.

Also last night:

The conclusion of Transfer Deadline Day: Nikica Jelavic signs for Everton, Manchester United and Arsenal sign teenagers, Fulham sign Pavel Pogrebnyak. A real damp squip compared to last year’s bonanza, but some decent deals nonetheless.

Talking points- Your Five A Day:

– Has there ever been a more bizarre on pitch protest than the man handcuffing himself to the goalposts last night at Goodison? Answers on a postcard.

– Was transfer deadline day too much of a distraction for clubs going into last nights games- surely the matches could have been played today instead?

– Ashley Cole’s sending off looks set to be a tough blow for Chelsea ahead of Sunday’s match with Manchester United.

– West Ham will hope new signing Ravel Morrison is all he’s cracked up to be after crashing to a 5-1 defeat at Ipswich.

– Darron Gibson is already looking like Manchester United’s best piece of business this transfer window.
