  Two penalties and now a red card as Laurent Koscielny receives his marching orders. Arsenal down to 10 men.
  
  Not going well, is it?

  Sunderland are losing 1-0 to Fulham after a Pajtim Kasami goal on 52 mins, missed that one earlier.
  
  And Norwich have just equalised to make it 2-2, Ricky van Wolfswinkel scoring on his debut.

  Kevin Nolan scores to make it 2-0 to West Ham in their game against Cardiff.

  BREAKING TEAM NEWS - Swansea v Man Utd (1730 BST)
  
  Wayne Rooney is on the bench for Manchester United.
  
  I think Manchester United should just sell him and move on. Looks like it will be a drawn out transfer deadline day

  Its getting bad to worse for Arsenal lol. They just conceded a third shortly after going down to 10 men. To be honest I would hate to be an arsenal fan right now, not much transfer ambition when the team clearly needs strengthening

  And it's gone from bad to worse for Arsenal as Antonio Luna makes it 3-1 to Villa at the Emirates.
  
  Surely Wenger will spend some money now? Surely?

  Here are the full-times then:
  
  Liverpool 1-0 Stoke
  Arsenal 1-3 Aston Villa
  Norwich 2-2 Everton
  Sunderland 0-1 Fulham
  West Brom 0-1 Southampton
  West Ham 2-0 Cardiff
  
  A terrible start for Arsenal. Despite all the talk of who they haven't signed, you'd have expected them to have enough about them to beat Villa at home. The pressure will be well and truly on Wenger now and he'll need to do something before the end of the transfer window if he wants to keep the fans onside.
  
  Rickie Lambert topped off a perfect week with a late penalty to secure a win for Southampton away at West Brom. The Saints dominated the first half but the Baggies came back in to it in the second. On balance the win was just about deserved though, and credit to Luke Shaw for a superb run in to the box to win the spot-kick.
  
  It was a disappointing start for Sunderland as they lost 1-0 at home to Fulham. Still early days of course but these are the sort of games Paolo Di Canio's side need to be winning.
  
  Rickie van Wolfswinkel salvaged a point for Norwich on his debut and West Ham recorded a straightfoward win at home to Cardiff with goals from Joe Cole and Kevin Nolan.
  
  Swansea v Man Utd kicks off at 17:30.
  
  So what are your thoughts on that then?
