Man City 2-0 Everton: The lunch time kick-off was a very tight affair with Everton defending well for most of the match. Substitute Balotelli's shot deflected of Jagielka to break the deadlock after sixty-eight minutes. Another substitute, James Milner, finished the game off in the final minute of normal time.
Liverpool 2-1 Wolves: Roger Johnson gave Liverpool by inadvertently heading a Charlie Adam shot past his own keeper after eleven minutes. Suarez made it 2-0 after thirty-eight minutes before Steven Fletcher pulled one back for Wolves four minutes into the second half.
Arsenal 3-0 Bolton: Arsenal look to be back on track with this convincing win. Van Persie opened the scoring just a minute into the second half. Bolton were reduced to ten men when Wheater pulled Walcott back as last man in a goal scoring opportunity. Arsenal took full advantage and Van Persie scored his 100th Arsenal goal nineteen minutes from time, Song finished it off in the final minute.
Wigan 1-2 Tottenham: Spurs took the lead after just three minutes when Van der Vaart finished off a good passing move. Bale then made it 2-0 from a Modric corner after twenty-three minutes before Diame pulled one back five minutes into the second half. Any comeback hopes were dashed when Gohouri received his second yellow card after sixty-three minutes for tripping Bale.
Newcastle 3-1 Blackburn: Newcastle remain as one of four sides to be unbeaten this season. Demba Ba scored his first Toon goal after twenty-seven minutes before then making it 2-0 just three minutes later. Hoilett pulled a goal back for Blackburn after thirty-seven minutes before Ba scored his hat-trick nine minutes into the second half. Blackburn's Olsson received his marching orders after a second silly yellow card on sixty-nine minutes, his first was for dissent and his second was for an obvious trip.
Chelsea 4-1 Swansea: Torres made it two goals in two games to break the deadlock after twenty-nine minutes. Ramires made it 2-0 after thirty-six before Torres was shown a straight red for a two footed lunge. It didn't stop Chelsea as Ramires scored his second fourteen minutes from the end. Swansea scored their first away goal and a consolation through Ashley Williams four minutes from the end, but the three goal cushion was restored with a injury time goal from the returning Drogba.
Stoke 1-1 Man Utd: United's 100% start comes to an end in a feisty match at the Britannia. Rooney sustained a hamstring injury in training and Evans injured his foot in the warm-up. Hernandez was able to start despite last week's ankle injury but his night was over after three minutes when Woodgate pushed him in the box and the Mexican collided with Begovic. No penalty was given. Nani gave United the lead after twenty-six minutes with a brilliant piece of individual skill. Stoke equalised seven minutes into the second half when Jones lost Crouch, allowing the striker to head home from five yards. Crouch could have won the game with two fantastic chances, but United maybe should have had a penalty for handball but nothing was given. A draw was a fair result in the end.
West Brom 0-0 Fulham: Both teams hit the wood work but neither could break the deadlock in this decent 0-0 draw.
