Sign up now! Sign up now! Sign up now? Sign up now!Oof. Eek! Yikes. Woof! Tuesday’s final score sheet might show three draws and West Ham edging a mid-table battle, but this was another white-hot night of Premier League action.

Well, why not at the Potterdome, where the Hammers rediscovered the concept of pressing after the fatally languid Julen Lopetegui era. The result was two goals gleaned from errant Fulham passes at the back, a platform the hosts clung on to as Fulham fought back, recording 21 shots to West Ham’s four but losing the game 3-2. “The best team didn’t win, but we have to be strong at both ends. We gave West Ham two goals,” fumed Marco Silva afterwards.A doctor doesn’t differentiate when a patient is coming from a different city. A lawyer doesn’t, either. If you like, I’m Dr Football.

The Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, said there were still “unresolved clauses”, though his cabinet was expected to vote on it on Thursday morning. They should back it.
