Boxing Day Results in The EPL

Manchester United 5:0 Wigan Athletic

Wigan will bemoan the harsh sending-off of Conor Sammon at 1-0, but United were good value for their win and are making ominous strides towards the Premier League summit."


Liverpool FC 0:0 Blackburn Rovers

Steve Kean looked impassive at the final whistle but he must have been elated. Real spirit shown here by Blackburn but this result is a major disappointment for Liverpool and manager Kenny Dalglish

West Brom 0:0 Manchester City

Manchester City dropping points is a rare thing this season. Them failing to score is even rarer. Credit goes to West Brom who were outstanding at the back and fully deserve a point that their fans cheered like three. City's Premier League lead is now down to goal difference, and even that is growing smaller by the week. League on."


Chelsea 1:1 Fulham

Chelsea will feel they had enough chances to win two games in the closing stages but their lack of urgency in the first half ultimately cost them and Fulham's spirit and organisation probably meant they deserved their slice of luck."

It's been a long day of action already, so before we set our sights fully on Stoke v Aston Villa, here's what our Boxing Day reporters have made of the drama so far...
