Thomas Tuchel was thrilled with Romelu Lukaku's second debut at Chelsea, but tempered the praise, insisting it was "not the time to party too much".

Reece James, the creator of the first, went on to fight in the second before half-time and Chelsea were in full control afterwards. Lukaku couldn't add to his strike in the 15th minute but finished with eight…

It was among eight outings at Stamford Bridge in Chelsea blue, but few could fault the striker for feeling a little dissatisfied. One…

Nuno Espirito Santo was pleased with Harry Kane's performance as a substitute in Tottenham's 1-0 win over Wolves on Sunday.

Spurs talisman Kane, a transfer target for Manchester City, missed the first two games of the season - a win against the Champions and a loss to Pacos de Ferreira in Europa League qualifying - but returned to an enthusiastic reception from the traveling…
