Manchester City missed out on the Christmas No.1 spot after a resolute Everton side came away with the points at a bitterly cold night in Manchester. The win brought a huge sigh of relief for David Moyes, who will be hoping this is the result to kick-start the Toffees season.
In the papers this morning there has been a mixed bag of stories as Wenger refuses to splash the cash; Alan Pardew bored by Andy Carroll transfer talk, while John Terry insists there is no division at the Bridge.
