It absolutely brilliant. This is getting better and better. | :00:17. | :00:37. | |
He has done it! Welcome to the final weekend of the Premier League | :00:38. | :00:51. | |
season. We have loads to pack it in. He's been a menace to defenders all | :00:52. | :00:58. | |
season, no Hazard warns they are not finished. After the game we can win | :00:59. | :01:07. | |
the double. He won the Champions League with Manchester United and | :01:08. | :01:12. | |
Ajax, so who does he fancied for the Europa League? My full focus is on | :01:13. | :01:21. | |
winning with Ajax. It was the great escape for Swansea. What is it all | :01:22. | :01:28. | |
about, Alfie? I was in the Conference so then I was celebrating | :01:29. | :01:36. | |
with World Cup winners. Jack Butland is back. Can they be the new | :01:37. | :01:40. | |
invincible is? Celtic are a match away from a special season. It would | :01:41. | :01:44. | |
be a remarkable achievement or any football club. We will hear from | :01:45. | :01:50. | |
Millwall as they prepare for the play-offs. We will get the latest | :01:51. | :01:56. | |
from Arsenal. Here we go. The final ten games of the Premier League | :01:57. | :02:02. | |
season. They are at 3pm tomorrow. We know that teams going down. This | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
weekend is about who will play in those final champion -- Champions | :02:08. | :02:14. | |
League spots. We will look at that later. But we start with Chelsea. | :02:15. | :02:25. | |
This is a big night because we won the title. Chelsea, champions, 2017. | :02:26. | :02:36. | |
We have to appreciate how hard it is to win. This is what I would have | :02:37. | :02:42. | |
wanted from life. It is Watford tonight but they stand | :02:43. | :02:55. | |
for the rest of the Premier League with a mark of respect to the team | :02:56. | :02:58. | |
that has bettered all of them this season. It has gone in. The captain | :02:59. | :03:09. | |
has got his goal. He is gifted a call to Watford. Would you believe | :03:10. | :03:16. | |
it? One minute later, made the mistake and let him in. It was | :03:17. | :03:26. | |
deflected and is 3-1 to Chelsea. Janmaat is in and that is a terrific | :03:27. | :03:45. | |
goal. Okaka has levelled for Chelsea. Chelsea win another one! | :03:46. | :03:55. | |
Cesc Fabregas whether crowding -- with the crowning moment. The most | :03:56. | :04:01. | |
important thing is that we won. Now we can set a target to win 30 games. | :04:02. | :04:09. | |
Another good night at Stamford Bridge. The day after that game we | :04:10. | :04:20. | |
heard Walter Mazzari was leaving Watford. I suppose it's not a | :04:21. | :04:27. | |
surprise. Eighth managerial change in five years. They actually gave | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
him a three-year contract so it looks like they are bucking the | :04:31. | :04:36. | |
trend... There are factors. He struggled with the language which is | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
a problem, obviously, not just perception, I mean for the lads | :04:42. | :04:45. | |
playing there. Also, the style of football, I've done a lot of shows | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
where they said we cannot watch what we are paying to watch. There's a | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
fine line between staying in the Premier League, getting results, and | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
playing what the fans want. Every Watford fan I've heard talking about | :05:00. | :05:04. | |
it is grateful to the orders and thankful for the position they've | :05:05. | :05:06. | |
got the men. They are not against them. Dropping Troy Dini is | :05:07. | :05:14. | |
interesting. He has not had a go at the managers. But that is important. | :05:15. | :05:24. | |
Very important. The good thing about him is he's a man that will say | :05:25. | :05:28. | |
things to your face. There's a disagreement. He the type of person | :05:29. | :05:37. | |
who will have it out with you and then. It is not a situation where he | :05:38. | :05:42. | |
will think Troy Dini is getting the players against me. He's not that | :05:43. | :05:47. | |
guy. He's a leader. That's the beauty of having someone like that. | :05:48. | :05:59. | |
The breakdown is the language breakdown. | :06:00. | :06:11. | |
Marco dee-10-mac is the favourite to take over. Would that be good for | :06:12. | :06:23. | |
you? -- Marco Silva. You cannot walk into Watford and change them | :06:24. | :06:26. | |
overnight and make them a free-flowing football side. You've | :06:27. | :06:30. | |
got to get realistic. It is Watford. They should be thankful they are in | :06:31. | :06:34. | |
the Premier League and I think the majority of fans are. The style will | :06:35. | :06:39. | |
change. From a Chelsea perspective, it has been a far more relaxed week. | :06:40. | :06:46. | |
Eden Hazard got the chance to change the tyre on a Formula 1 car. After | :06:47. | :06:57. | |
that, he sat down with a reporter. Chelsea fans rise, into the box, | :06:58. | :07:02. | |
brilliant. You've been a standout player this season. What drives you | :07:03. | :07:07. | |
to keep going? I don't think it is just me, the whole team, all the | :07:08. | :07:13. | |
players, they have been fantastic. We won a lot of games. I think we | :07:14. | :07:21. | |
deserved to win this title. We have one more game and the FA Cup final | :07:22. | :07:31. | |
to play. It was such a big transformation from going solo down | :07:32. | :07:34. | |
in the table to being champions but essentially it is the same group of | :07:35. | :07:38. | |
players. What do you think was missing ingredient? That is | :07:39. | :07:44. | |
football. Two years ago we won the league. Last season was difficult | :07:45. | :07:51. | |
for some of the reasons. Motivation is not top. Fitness is not top. A | :07:52. | :08:02. | |
lot of things. We started the season well and we won the league. Next | :08:03. | :08:08. | |
season, we will be in trouble if we don't work hard as we did this | :08:09. | :08:13. | |
season. We have to be ready every year to be on the top. You won the | :08:14. | :08:19. | |
league so congratulations. How did you celebrate? We cannot celebrate a | :08:20. | :08:24. | |
lot because we have the FA Cup final. We've got to be ready for | :08:25. | :08:28. | |
that. After West Brom we did party together. It was good to see the | :08:29. | :08:39. | |
smile on the face and I hope on the 28th we can, after the game, win the | :08:40. | :08:48. | |
double. We shall hear more from Eden Hazard next week ahead of the cup | :08:49. | :08:53. | |
final. We are going to start talking about the man who scored his first | :08:54. | :08:56. | |
goal of the season on Monday night. John Terry. It is an interesting | :08:57. | :09:03. | |
debate about great Premier League defenders. Is he the best we've | :09:04. | :09:09. | |
seen? I don't know if it is an interesting debate. He is either one | :09:10. | :09:13. | |
or two Mac. For me, it depends where you stand. Rio Ferdinand was a ball | :09:14. | :09:23. | |
he caused problems. John Terry was good on the ball and he was a | :09:24. | :09:29. | |
warrior. I would say he's been the best. Would you go for that? You can | :09:30. | :09:36. | |
choose either of them, they've been remarkable. What I love about John, | :09:37. | :09:41. | |
even this season when he's not been playing, and he could have got | :09:42. | :09:47. | |
frustrated, he kept his leadership qualities, kept his counsel, he was | :09:48. | :09:55. | |
open to the lads, in the semifinal, players ahead of him, it was a big | :09:56. | :10:02. | |
call. Squad player. Absolutely scary, balls like the other night, | :10:03. | :10:08. | |
Gary Cahill and him have been scoring goals like that during their | :10:09. | :10:13. | |
careers. 61 goals is scary for a centre-half. It will be interesting | :10:14. | :10:17. | |
to see what happens next season. Lots of clubs would like to see him. | :10:18. | :10:22. | |
We look to John Terry. He's got one this season. The man at the top with | :10:23. | :10:31. | |
26 is Harry Kane. 29 appearances and 26 goals. So impressive. It is | :10:32. | :10:35. | |
unbelievable. When you consider the amount of time out injured, he hit | :10:36. | :10:41. | |
the ground running when he came back. To be setting top of the | :10:42. | :10:55. | |
charts, is absolutely brilliant. He had the bit between his teeth in | :10:56. | :11:00. | |
this one. I think he looked at the centre halves and he thought they | :11:01. | :11:03. | |
were not the strongest, there are goals for me. This is him hungry to | :11:04. | :11:12. | |
get on the end of it. There was a warning to pass the ball to him. | :11:13. | :11:18. | |
This is the one I like. People talk about scoring goals. These Grissom | :11:19. | :11:22. | |
from all over the place. If you highlight this area, this is the | :11:23. | :11:27. | |
width of the goal. This is where the best strikers in the world will | :11:28. | :11:32. | |
score goals. No matter where the ball is getting moved to, he stays | :11:33. | :11:39. | |
within the goalposts. He is still within the specs when it comes to | :11:40. | :11:45. | |
him, it is not a coincidence that he is on the end of it to stick it into | :11:46. | :11:49. | |
the back of the net. The other goals are brilliant. His finishing is | :11:50. | :11:58. | |
remarkable. This shot hit three players. His technique on his | :11:59. | :12:06. | |
finishing, he can do the powerful one, the site through, what I love | :12:07. | :12:10. | |
about him is his mental strength. To actually go a lot of games without | :12:11. | :12:17. | |
goals, to come back and keep working the way he does, for such a young | :12:18. | :12:27. | |
guy. It does mean a lot. 25 years ago he scored a hat-trick on the | :12:28. | :12:32. | |
final day of the season, Ian Wright, to the golden boot. Romelu Lukaku | :12:33. | :12:39. | |
will be looking at those schools and thinking, I've got to go again. | :12:40. | :12:49. | |
Strikers are driven by goals. That's why you hear about that. He was | :12:50. | :13:05. | |
delighted to shut down the swansong. We saw the Chelsea title | :13:06. | :13:09. | |
celebrations at West Brom. This is how you take things up a notch. Look | :13:10. | :13:19. | |
at this in the dressing room. You can imagine somebody from the | :13:20. | :13:21. | |
insurance company with their head in their hands but everything was fine. | :13:22. | :13:26. | |
I could have done with that in my last season as a player. Chelsea and | :13:27. | :13:39. | |
Spurs are in the Champions League spots but who else will join them? | :13:40. | :13:47. | |
If they get a point then Arsenal will miss out on Champions League | :13:48. | :13:54. | |
football for the first time in 20 years. | :13:55. | :14:04. | |
Jesus at the front post gives Manchester City the opening goal. | :14:05. | :14:16. | |
Super finish. Manchester City have two Mac goals in the space of two | :14:17. | :14:18. | |
Mac minutes. Almost into his own net. Arsenal | :14:19. | :14:37. | |
need to wake up. He's given an indirect free kick. That is like a | :14:38. | :14:48. | |
queue at the bus stop. He heads it over the bar. Not the worst idea. He | :14:49. | :14:56. | |
slides that through. Did really well. Then Arsenal again. Looking | :14:57. | :15:20. | |
again. Sanchez! Of course it is him. Another three opportunities to | :15:21. | :15:23. | |
further increase their lead. They've worked their way through. Carved | :15:24. | :15:27. | |
open the defence. Yaya Toure walked through. | :15:28. | :15:39. | |
Guided the ball into the bottom corner. The whole of the Etihad. And | :15:40. | :15:47. | |
Pablo Zabaleta gets a wonderful ovation. | :15:48. | :15:58. | |
It's over Pickford. Olivier Giroud! What a save. To get his second of | :15:59. | :16:03. | |
the night. To seal the three points for Arsenal. | :16:04. | :16:08. | |
Arsenal get the win they want and the win they need to keep up the | :16:09. | :16:11. | |
chase for the Champions League football. They start the final day a | :16:12. | :16:16. | |
point behind Liverpool. At the moment we have 72. | :16:17. | :16:20. | |
We want to give everything, to get to 75. | :16:21. | :16:28. | |
It's over the cross. Tucked away. And Manchester City have beaten West | :16:29. | :16:33. | |
Bromwich Albion by 3-1. Manchester City have their destiny | :16:34. | :16:37. | |
in their hands. It's the best thing you can say. To | :16:38. | :16:42. | |
arrive in the last days. I want to win. | :16:43. | :16:49. | |
It's going to be a dramatic final day. Let's see how it is set up. | :16:50. | :16:53. | |
Three clubs separated by three points. It could be interesting in | :16:54. | :16:57. | |
terms of goal difference. Five goals separating them. So there is a | :16:58. | :17:02. | |
scenario where there could be a play-off for the fourth Champions | :17:03. | :17:06. | |
League spot. But if Manchester City and Liverpool do what they need to | :17:07. | :17:10. | |
do, they are in the strong position with Arsenal chasing them? Yes. | :17:11. | :17:18. | |
Middlesbrough, they have struggled against the Leicester teams. | :17:19. | :17:25. | |
City at Watford? That is tricky as Watford produced some performances | :17:26. | :17:28. | |
against the bigger teams. Arsenal, Manchester United. They are capable | :17:29. | :17:32. | |
but they have been poor recently. With what is at stake, City could | :17:33. | :17:37. | |
turn them over. Arsenal are hoping for a miracle. Definitely. There was | :17:38. | :17:41. | |
a game the other night, there was that much on the line, there was | :17:42. | :17:47. | |
only one winner. When Chelsea went to West Brom. Chelsea punt a hell of | :17:48. | :17:51. | |
a fight. There is something similar this weekend. It is nervy but they | :17:52. | :17:57. | |
have way too much. Anfield with the players at their disposal, what is | :17:58. | :18:01. | |
there in front, how hard that they have worked. I expect them to cement | :18:02. | :18:08. | |
the places. An article this morning, Carry on | :18:09. | :18:13. | |
Wenger, talking about him staying at the club, as the director of | :18:14. | :18:18. | |
football. Talking about the buy-out, and after the Cup final a discussion | :18:19. | :18:23. | |
about what happens to Wenger. Throwing in Ozil and Sanchez it is a | :18:24. | :18:28. | |
really important week? It is. But they are not the only club. There | :18:29. | :18:32. | |
are a lot of clubs with a lot of work to do in the summer, whether it | :18:33. | :18:38. | |
be manage managers, players, being poached. But Arsenal, it has been | :18:39. | :18:43. | |
like that all year. Some people call it a lot of work to do but I think | :18:44. | :18:49. | |
that the fans think it will settle the uncertainty and send them into | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
next season with a clearer frame of mind. It has been a hard slog for | :18:54. | :18:57. | |
the Arsenal fans. Do you expect to see him sat in the | :18:58. | :19:03. | |
dugout at The Emirates? No, I don't. You think he will leave like that. | :19:04. | :19:08. | |
I think he has given himself a get out. | :19:09. | :19:12. | |
If they lose the final and not get into the top four, the fans are | :19:13. | :19:16. | |
unhappy. But that is polite. They are fuming. If they don't win the | :19:17. | :19:23. | |
cup, they will start next season on the back foot in terms of support | :19:24. | :19:27. | |
against him. That is not helpful. Take that away and the recruitment | :19:28. | :19:31. | |
and the players that they have bought has not been good enough. | :19:32. | :19:35. | |
That is his decision. He runs the whole ship it is time for a change. | :19:36. | :19:39. | |
They're not going win the league. They need to mix it up. | :19:40. | :19:45. | |
You have spoken about diving. Successful deception of the match | :19:46. | :19:50. | |
official. Talk about a Monday panel to look at incidents like this to | :19:51. | :19:55. | |
give a retrospective ban. Is it is step forward? Sam Allardyce is not | :19:56. | :20:01. | |
happy. I think it is great decision, as long as the people on the panel | :20:02. | :20:06. | |
are competent. Not just box tickers. They must be reputable people. | :20:07. | :20:12. | |
An ex-match official, ex-manager and ex-player. | :20:13. | :20:17. | |
That is a broad spectrum. Somebody playing in the top flight is better. | :20:18. | :20:24. | |
To you want the job? Notes. But I think it is crucial. You will | :20:25. | :20:28. | |
never get rid of it completely. There will be a few where you go | :20:29. | :20:33. | |
"not sure" but not many. Will it make players think twice | :20:34. | :20:38. | |
about it? Yeah. That is why it is brilliant it is brought in. But what | :20:39. | :20:45. | |
about the FA Cup final where if a player dye, they win a penalty and | :20:46. | :20:49. | |
win the Cup and he gets a three-match ban. | :20:50. | :20:54. | |
Well, they have lifted the Cup. They can't take the Cup away. As much as | :20:55. | :20:59. | |
it is progression and good. The team are still getting punished. That is | :21:00. | :21:03. | |
where it will hurt. It will not keep everybody happy. | :21:04. | :21:07. | |
There is another route to the Champions League. That is winning | :21:08. | :21:14. | |
the Europa League. Manchester United face Ajax. Who better to chase this | :21:15. | :21:20. | |
up than Edwin van der Sar. He is now the chief expect at the | :21:21. | :21:25. | |
Dutch club. Two clubs close to my heart is Ajax | :21:26. | :21:30. | |
and after that it is Manchester United. There are a couple of great | :21:31. | :21:37. | |
experiences in life. In 95, winning the Champions League. A fantastic | :21:38. | :21:40. | |
end to my career. Winning four titles in the Champions League. | :21:41. | :21:47. | |
I don't have a foot in both sides. I'm responsible for Ajax. The sole | :21:48. | :21:52. | |
concentration and focus is on winning with Ajax. On Wednesday the | :21:53. | :22:00. | |
4th, there is only one winner. -- on Wednesday the 24th. | :22:01. | :22:06. | |
There has been success in the '70s. And in the '80s and the '90s where I | :22:07. | :22:12. | |
was there myself. It has taken 21 years to reach the final. A long | :22:13. | :22:18. | |
time for a club as big as Ajax. Many young fans have never seen Ajax in | :22:19. | :22:24. | |
this final. It's a long time ago. The fans are | :22:25. | :22:29. | |
really believing in Ajax and knowing that with the trophies we have won | :22:30. | :22:33. | |
in the past, we have the possibility to win them in the near future, | :22:34. | :22:41. | |
Wednesday, again. The main thing is for Ajax, the newness in the club. | :22:42. | :22:45. | |
The developing players, young players, the exciting players. | :22:46. | :22:50. | |
And the biggest plus for this year, it comes to Ajax. Manchester United | :22:51. | :22:54. | |
are through to the Europa League Cup. We have been in the final in | :22:55. | :23:03. | |
2009 against Barcelona and 2011, in the final. Now it is six years since | :23:04. | :23:09. | |
they have been in the final. The club is big. Of course, they need to | :23:10. | :23:14. | |
play more often in the European finals. But they are there now in | :23:15. | :23:19. | |
what seems to be a difficult season. They still value a chance to make | :23:20. | :23:28. | |
themselves shine. Their quality of managers like Sir Alex Ferguson. | :23:29. | :23:32. | |
Being there for 26 years he got the club in a way he wanted. We will | :23:33. | :23:38. | |
never see that again. They have had three different managers in five | :23:39. | :23:41. | |
years. It is difficult for a group of players. They have not created | :23:42. | :23:50. | |
the solid base to build on. At Ajax you have to reconfirm that | :23:51. | :23:54. | |
we are back at the European front. That we want to achieve things | :23:55. | :23:58. | |
against not only in Holland but Europe. Then it is important for us | :23:59. | :24:04. | |
to get our hands on the touch. For Manchester United they want to make | :24:05. | :24:08. | |
it a good season. They also need to win. Otherwise it is difficult for | :24:09. | :24:16. | |
them to take the next step. Great to hear from Edwin van der | :24:17. | :24:23. | |
Sar. You saw the pictures of Dennis Bergkamp and they are not scared to | :24:24. | :24:28. | |
bring in the greats from the club's past. No-one is threatened by them. | :24:29. | :24:34. | |
It is genius. It baffles me why more clubs don't do it. I suppose that | :24:35. | :24:38. | |
they need the willingness from the ex-players. We are talking about | :24:39. | :24:43. | |
greats. That they could be happy playing golf, sitting on a beach but | :24:44. | :24:48. | |
they have the hunger to give back to their clubs that they started at. | :24:49. | :24:53. | |
What that must be like for the younger players, stood there, | :24:54. | :24:56. | |
watching Dennis Bergkamp educating them on the game, it is probably a | :24:57. | :25:00. | |
big part of the reason that they are in this final. | :25:01. | :25:05. | |
They are a very young side. On the Manchester United side of things, | :25:06. | :25:09. | |
Danny, if they win the Europa League, is it a great season, | :25:10. | :25:15. | |
brilliant, for Jose Mourinho? Winning the two trophies would be a | :25:16. | :25:19. | |
fantastic season. Looking at it like that. In terms of what Manchester | :25:20. | :25:24. | |
United are expected to be which is competitors in the Premier League | :25:25. | :25:27. | |
and Champions League but you can only down one thing at a time. I | :25:28. | :25:30. | |
think that they have progressed well in the terms of the way that they | :25:31. | :25:35. | |
played. The squad is healthy. They have had a lot of games but they | :25:36. | :25:41. | |
have been unlucky. It hurts me to say it, the games that were drawn at | :25:42. | :25:47. | |
home... The six, seven games at home, they murdered them. The away | :25:48. | :25:55. | |
form has been great. I think next season they will be challenging. | :25:56. | :26:01. | |
Jose Mourinho has been complaining about fixtures and challenging. In | :26:02. | :26:09. | |
this final ahead of De Gea, he is one of the best goal keepers in the | :26:10. | :26:15. | |
world and you don't play him in a game that could secure Champions | :26:16. | :26:20. | |
League football? It tells you how much he rates Ramiro himself as a | :26:21. | :26:26. | |
manager. It is him that has got him to the point playing in the Europa | :26:27. | :26:31. | |
League. It is not a great call for me. I think that De Gea has been | :26:32. | :26:40. | |
good. But Romiro has been good. He played in the World Cup final. He is | :26:41. | :26:46. | |
not a kid. How can you drop him if you played him every game. | :26:47. | :26:53. | |
You were there with Fulham, an amazing run to the final. When you | :26:54. | :26:59. | |
look at that, the memories come up, you think I was the captain that | :27:00. | :27:03. | |
night. Was there an opportunity missed? Or did you lose to the | :27:04. | :27:07. | |
better side? There was not much in it. Probably the biggest | :27:08. | :27:13. | |
disappointment I have ever had. If we had done it would have been | :27:14. | :27:18. | |
remarkable for the side. Talking about fixture congestion, we had an | :27:19. | :27:22. | |
ageing squad. Even against Liverpool, we won the treble. We | :27:23. | :27:28. | |
played over 60 games. So come on. Stop whingeing. Win the game. | :27:29. | :27:34. | |
Everyone will say well done. They are the biggest squad. One of | :27:35. | :27:40. | |
the biggest. They can put out the genuine quality. I agree with | :27:41. | :27:43. | |
Murphy. There is no need for the mooning. | :27:44. | :27:47. | |
The live coverage for the Europa League final is at 7.45pm that is on | :27:48. | :27:52. | |
Wednesday night. We heard from Edwin van der Sar, now to a keeper | :27:53. | :28:00. | |
returning from injury, Stoke City's Jack Buckland. He has been telling | :28:01. | :28:11. | |
Rachel about his annus horibilis. They are calling for the stretcher. | :28:12. | :28:17. | |
That is really disappointing. Although it was a friendly, probably | :28:18. | :28:21. | |
the biggest game of my career so far. It was just a cocktail of | :28:22. | :28:26. | |
emotions, so be honest. Yeah. Started the game well. Then the most | :28:27. | :28:32. | |
innoccuous thing. I tried to sprint for a through-ball, that is where it | :28:33. | :28:36. | |
all started. It was then that we realised that I | :28:37. | :28:42. | |
had a bone growth growing in my ankle joint which at that time | :28:43. | :28:47. | |
compressed and sheered straight up my tibia. | :28:48. | :28:50. | |
It wasn't meant to take as long as it did for you to come back. Talk us | :28:51. | :28:57. | |
through your journey then as well. So, 26th of March is when I broke | :28:58. | :29:02. | |
it. Three days later I had an operation in London to repair the | :29:03. | :29:04. | |
fracture. It went fine? Fine. Three screws, | :29:05. | :29:11. | |
all cleaned up, job done. Then the day before the first game of the | :29:12. | :29:16. | |
season against Midlands, I landed awkwardly on it in training. I had | :29:17. | :29:21. | |
the whole sensation all over again. Then a second operation on a tendon | :29:22. | :29:26. | |
in my ankle, believed to be the cause of my latest pain. It turned | :29:27. | :29:33. | |
out not to be true. Ultimately, the original surgery, | :29:34. | :29:38. | |
back in March, the screws were not quite placed in the right area. They | :29:39. | :29:42. | |
did not go through the stress fracture. The third operation on the | :29:43. | :29:48. | |
12th of December to remove the two screws to replace them where they | :29:49. | :29:52. | |
should have been originally, now all is well and finally back on the | :29:53. | :29:55. | |
pitch again. What kept you going during the | :29:56. | :30:01. | |
rehab? I knew I would play again. I knew I would be OK. There were a | :30:02. | :30:06. | |
couple of soppy phone calls home. A few tough moments but it was mainly | :30:07. | :30:10. | |
box sets for a long time. Come on, what were you watching? | :30:11. | :30:18. | |
What does Jack Butland watch? Netflix is good. | :30:19. | :30:23. | |
Designated Survivor. The #k7 missing. | :30:24. | :30:27. | |
You were tweeting about it! We were hooked. | :30:28. | :30:36. | |
What else have I been on? The new Prison Break. Not keen on. | :30:37. | :30:42. | |
When you were injured, Gareth Southgate was appointed. What was | :30:43. | :30:47. | |
your reaction? Really pleased with that. | :30:48. | :30:51. | |
Brilliant. He is someone I that enjoy working with. He is great for | :30:52. | :30:55. | |
the future of England. He knows the young players. He has worked with | :30:56. | :31:00. | |
them before. There is no better person to bring the guys through | :31:01. | :31:03. | |
especially with the experience he has had at international and club | :31:04. | :31:08. | |
level. It's positive. He has also been through tough time, which we | :31:09. | :31:11. | |
have as a country as well. So I think it could be a really good one. | :31:12. | :31:20. | |
I guess the ambition was to be England number one playing every | :31:21. | :31:25. | |
week. What is it now? Still the same. It is still all systems go. It | :31:26. | :31:44. | |
has always been my target. Jack was speaking at the Kick It Out event. | :31:45. | :31:54. | |
We were chatting about box sets in the studio. I can't believe you're | :31:55. | :31:58. | |
only just catching up on Line Of Duty. Gareth Southgate has involved | :31:59. | :32:03. | |
him in the England squad even though he's been injured. So he does not | :32:04. | :32:08. | |
feel excluded. It is good management. He knows he's a top | :32:09. | :32:17. | |
goalkeeper. He was so close when he broke his ankle. He had a dodgy | :32:18. | :32:25. | |
tournament and I'm sure he would have been pushing him all the way. | :32:26. | :32:34. | |
That will only lift his spirits. Quite a strong position for England | :32:35. | :32:39. | |
in Gaul. There are a number of options. David Moyes has said this | :32:40. | :32:48. | |
week that he can go. Is it too much? It is a lot. He's only had one half | :32:49. | :32:53. | |
decent season. You've got to be careful judging goalkeepers who are | :32:54. | :32:58. | |
playing behind a bad team. But he is a talented player. Jack Butland is | :32:59. | :33:04. | |
the one. He can make that jersey his own. It is interesting, if there is | :33:05. | :33:10. | |
movement from goalkeepers like David De Gea here, it could open up a | :33:11. | :33:18. | |
merry-go-round of players moving to significant clubs in the Premier | :33:19. | :33:22. | |
League. I think that could be the case. There are a number of clubs | :33:23. | :33:27. | |
searching. I'm not sure Manchester City are 100% happy. Liverpool, | :33:28. | :33:37. | |
maybe. I know that their keeper has had a good end to the season. | :33:38. | :33:41. | |
Everton. You name it. There are a few that could be having a look | :33:42. | :33:50. | |
around. To the bottom of the Premier League. The final relegation place | :33:51. | :33:54. | |
was confirmed when Hull City were beaten by little Palace. Wild | :33:55. | :33:59. | |
celebrations in Swansea had just about calmed down when we caught up | :34:00. | :34:04. | |
with the defender. What a finish from Alfie Mawson! Can | :34:05. | :34:23. | |
we rewind to the party you had going? It was mad, to be fair. When | :34:24. | :34:29. | |
the first goal went in we went crazy. It's a tough one as a | :34:30. | :34:40. | |
footballer. You never want to see a set of professional athletes get | :34:41. | :34:45. | |
relegated but that is the game. It is a dog eat dog world. For Swansea | :34:46. | :34:54. | |
it was a positive weekend. If you look at the back-end of our season | :34:55. | :35:01. | |
it has been a totally different feel about the place, the way we've | :35:02. | :35:04. | |
performed. If we can implement that next year, nobody will know what we | :35:05. | :35:13. | |
can achieve. We see what happened as a building block, getting away from | :35:14. | :35:23. | |
the relegation scrap. People look at the form since the manager came in | :35:24. | :35:27. | |
and they would suggest you would not find yourself in that position | :35:28. | :35:31. | |
again. He's been brilliant, he came in with a real planet he's not | :35:32. | :35:37. | |
change that. People were not where they needed to be. If you're not on | :35:38. | :35:50. | |
it you can get punished. You meet people and you want to see them do | :35:51. | :35:54. | |
well but better than you think you can do. | :35:55. | :36:02. | |
The one thing that launched you was the goal against Leicester. There | :36:03. | :36:10. | |
was a celebration to go along with that, the shuffle. I was just happy | :36:11. | :36:18. | |
about it. I got other of abuse for it but I'm not going to change. -- I | :36:19. | :36:25. | |
got a bit. That will stay with me for a long time. It has been a crazy | :36:26. | :36:32. | |
12 months for you. You're preparing for a play-off final. You got | :36:33. | :36:41. | |
success with that. The journey is carrying on. Playing week in, week | :36:42. | :36:49. | |
out, it has been incredible and credit to the hard work I've been | :36:50. | :36:55. | |
putting in. You get the moments Bridger pinch yourself. Before that | :36:56. | :37:02. | |
I was playing in the Conference and then I was celebrating that we had | :37:03. | :37:09. | |
stayed up with World Cup winners. I'm very lucky to be in this | :37:10. | :37:17. | |
position. Very confident young man. Since Paul Clement took over he led | :37:18. | :37:28. | |
the way. The work they've done on the training pitch has helped. | :37:29. | :37:34. | |
They've got protection. Sometimes with one manager, you get someone | :37:35. | :37:41. | |
who understands you. And they help you. He's a good footballer. I think | :37:42. | :37:46. | |
he is potentially a really good player. I was speaking to Gareth Ian | :37:47. | :37:50. | |
is worth a couple of weeks back regarding him and he said he was | :37:51. | :37:57. | |
close to quitting football. He lost confidence. Those things can happen. | :37:58. | :38:03. | |
Now he's on a different level. He is back in the Premier League. First | :38:04. | :38:07. | |
choice centre-half. He's getting better and better. Over the last few | :38:08. | :38:12. | |
months there has been a lot of praise for town-3-mac. You were on | :38:13. | :38:19. | |
the radio talking about Paul Clement and what he brought to the club and | :38:20. | :38:24. | |
how he changed things -- praise for Marco Silva. If the Premier League | :38:25. | :38:27. | |
had started when he took over then Swansea City would be eighth. | :38:28. | :38:36. | |
Numbers will tell you one thing. Watching them will tell you another. | :38:37. | :38:41. | |
There are games that you're going to lose but if you do the right things, | :38:42. | :38:45. | |
the manager is implementing the right tactics and plan on the | :38:46. | :38:50. | |
training pitch. The minute that Paul Clement took over you could see that | :38:51. | :38:54. | |
he had a way of playing. They had that little drop but once he got | :38:55. | :39:00. | |
them out of that it was testament to what he did. He also did a decent | :39:01. | :39:09. | |
job at Derby. Be interesting to see if he can hold on to Gylfi | :39:10. | :39:18. | |
Sigurdsson and Fernando Llorente. He has unbelievable statistics. | :39:19. | :39:23. | |
Technically brilliant. Always on the pitch. Not the quickest. I'm not | :39:24. | :39:32. | |
sure they will be able to keep him. That will be one of four matches | :39:33. | :39:35. | |
featured on the red button tomorrow. As we saw there, one year ago, Alfie | :39:36. | :39:51. | |
Mawson was playing for Barnsley. They are back and playing Bradford. | :39:52. | :39:55. | |
We have been to see the preparations. This was their fifth | :39:56. | :40:08. | |
appearance in eight years. How did you process the disappointment of | :40:09. | :40:21. | |
last season. Last year there was no expectation. It was almost a bonus | :40:22. | :40:26. | |
getting to the final. We wanted to win at the turnaround was so quick | :40:27. | :40:31. | |
last year, everybody was high as a kite. We did not really turn up on | :40:32. | :40:44. | |
the day. I cannot get over how uncanny it is that you all started | :40:45. | :40:49. | |
in non-league, that you all banged in the goals. Is there a | :40:50. | :40:54. | |
characteristic that fit this football club. They brought me out | :40:55. | :41:00. | |
of non-league and they took a chance on me. That opened it up for them to | :41:01. | :41:04. | |
take another gamble and another gamble. I'm a goal-scorer and I will | :41:05. | :41:12. | |
always score goals. Since you join from Halifax, 54 goals. Not bad for | :41:13. | :41:17. | |
a guy that quit his job to go professional. Have you done your | :41:18. | :41:24. | |
mouse or have you seen this that? It has been a good three years for me. | :41:25. | :41:29. | |
I've enjoyed every minute and hopefully I will keep enjoying it. | :41:30. | :41:41. | |
It is not a risk. It is a risk. You've got a job and you quit it to | :41:42. | :41:48. | |
go into football. We had already been there. When you get the | :41:49. | :41:53. | |
opportunity to take it again it is not a risk. We've been down there. | :41:54. | :41:59. | |
Once you go down there you don't want to go back. You work 9-5 then | :42:00. | :42:07. | |
you get up at 6am to go to work. Changing your lifestyle should give | :42:08. | :42:10. | |
you the edge but you've got to have the right mentality. They work hard | :42:11. | :42:22. | |
and that is keen. People want a reason as to why stuff happens but | :42:23. | :42:33. | |
the honest answer is it just works. The FA Cup has been brilliant for | :42:34. | :42:38. | |
us. During that run, the last-minute goals in both of them. We've got the | :42:39. | :42:42. | |
spirit and we've got the bond in the group. We've got that mentality this | :42:43. | :42:50. | |
year and we believe this could be our time. I've never spent as long | :42:51. | :43:00. | |
in a goal as I have now. It is enormous. You cannot miss. What | :43:01. | :43:04. | |
would it mean to you to get them back in the Championship? First and | :43:05. | :43:10. | |
foremost I see it as my job to get the club promoted. I want to see the | :43:11. | :43:18. | |
players succeed. They work hard. They do everything together as a | :43:19. | :43:27. | |
group. It would be special for them. It would be special. They have a | :43:28. | :43:33. | |
good cup run. It would be a good end to see them go up. It would. He has | :43:34. | :43:38. | |
them working well. Had a good run in the cup and he was putting out his | :43:39. | :43:45. | |
strongest side. Those strikers are good goal-scorers for him. With him | :43:46. | :43:49. | |
coming from the same pedigree, he will be hoping he can do the same | :43:50. | :44:06. | |
today. Championship play-off final, Fulham were highly fancied against | :44:07. | :44:10. | |
Reading and Reading beat them. Huddersfield were favourites to go | :44:11. | :44:14. | |
down and they've beaten Sheffield Wednesday. They are both one game | :44:15. | :44:20. | |
from Premier League trouble. It is incredible, the Championship is the | :44:21. | :44:23. | |
most unpredictable league. Every season somebody comes up you do not | :44:24. | :44:28. | |
expect them to be there. Huddersfield deserve great credit. | :44:29. | :44:31. | |
You look at them and you say, how have they got to this level? He said | :44:32. | :44:35. | |
when he went in there he had to make a decision. He changed it overnight. | :44:36. | :44:40. | |
He changed the training and the discipline and instead of doing it | :44:41. | :44:45. | |
bit by bit he did it overnight. He seems a very bright man. I fancy | :44:46. | :44:52. | |
him. I think it is meant to be the fairy tale ending. To Scotland. | :44:53. | :45:02. | |
Celtic are a match away from being in the history books after they beat | :45:03. | :45:08. | |
Partick Thistle. Rob McLean was there and can explain everything. | :45:09. | :45:16. | |
Queen Victoria was the reigning monarch. Oxo cubes appeared in the | :45:17. | :45:24. | |
shops. The year was 1899, the last time a | :45:25. | :45:29. | |
top flight Scottish team went through a season unbeaten. Now, | :45:30. | :45:35. | |
after a dominant campaign, Celtic have the chance to rewrite 180 years | :45:36. | :45:41. | |
of history. Dembele! It's Patrick Roberts! It's | :45:42. | :45:48. | |
brilliant. It's 3-0. | :45:49. | :45:54. | |
Now two teams stand between Celtic and their quest for invincibility. | :45:55. | :45:59. | |
Hearts on Sunday on the last day of the league season and tonight here | :46:00. | :46:05. | |
on Fir Hill, Partick Thistle. Forest. Instant control from | :46:06. | :46:10. | |
Roberts. And a dangerous looking challenge from Booth. He has given | :46:11. | :46:17. | |
away a penalty. Lee Griffiths, scores Celtic 100th league goal of | :46:18. | :46:20. | |
the season. It is easy to switch off at this | :46:21. | :46:25. | |
stage. But there is never a question of switching off? No. The gaffer | :46:26. | :46:32. | |
never let's us switch off. He always wants us to maintain the levels that | :46:33. | :46:37. | |
are set. He has set a great standard this season. | :46:38. | :46:41. | |
He is at the edge of the box. Griffiths casts the ball into the | :46:42. | :46:46. | |
middle. It has gone in! They are a joy to work with. To see that | :46:47. | :46:51. | |
relationship in the game, how they play in work and training to the | :46:52. | :46:55. | |
game. It is very, very pleasing. It leavous satisfied. They know this is | :46:56. | :47:00. | |
the beginning of how we are trying to work and hopefully we can | :47:01. | :47:03. | |
continue. Forest is inside the box. Back it | :47:04. | :47:11. | |
goes. Patrick Roberts thumped an unstoppable left-footer into the top | :47:12. | :47:14. | |
corner! Does this feel like a special season? It is a special | :47:15. | :47:19. | |
season. A special manager, a special bunch of lads. That are doing | :47:20. | :47:23. | |
something unbelievable on and off the park. What the gaffer does, what | :47:24. | :47:29. | |
he speaks about, setting the standards. We with will keep that | :47:30. | :47:34. | |
through for the rest of the season. That was over the line! What would | :47:35. | :47:43. | |
it mean to be The Invincibles to go through the season unbeaten? Well, | :47:44. | :47:50. | |
some say it is easy but it would be phenomenal for us! Patrick Roberts. | :47:51. | :48:00. | |
Sensational! It is 103 Premiership points and 104 Premiership goals. | :48:01. | :48:03. | |
You are bearing down on another record? Yes, and the most wins for a | :48:04. | :48:09. | |
season, which is 33. So we have a job to do. We want to finish the | :48:10. | :48:14. | |
season on a high on Sunday. Hopefully play well. We have 60,000 | :48:15. | :48:18. | |
supporters we want to make happy. If we can do that and finish the season | :48:19. | :48:26. | |
unbeaten, it will be a remarkable achievement and an era for the | :48:27. | :48:30. | |
players, and I would applaud them. 44 points clear. | :48:31. | :48:35. | |
Only Hearts stand in their way. We used a bit of Elgar's Nimrod | :48:36. | :48:42. | |
there. If Celtic waned Aberdeen fail to | :48:43. | :48:46. | |
win, they set the record for the biggest title winning margin in | :48:47. | :48:54. | |
Europe. There is documentally to mark the | :48:55. | :49:00. | |
anniversary on BBC One nexten Wednesday night. | :49:01. | :49:04. | |
It would be a remarkable achievement if they do it. | :49:05. | :49:10. | |
We heard from Jack Butland about how glad he is to be back from injury | :49:11. | :49:15. | |
wows. Another man is somebody who has been | :49:16. | :49:21. | |
out of the game since December. But hoping to be back jogging. Bolaise. | :49:22. | :49:29. | |
Take us backs to the moment you sustained your injury? It was | :49:30. | :49:35. | |
December. I think I got a shoulder injury when I plant my feet. | :49:36. | :49:39. | |
Something that I do all the time. So to come out with a nasty injury. I | :49:40. | :49:44. | |
shocked myself. As player, you don't think it will happen to you, being | :49:45. | :49:49. | |
out long-term. I have coped with it well so far. But at times it gets | :49:50. | :49:53. | |
frustrating. You stayed away from football. Why | :49:54. | :49:57. | |
did you make that decision? Just to switch off. He to keep myself away | :49:58. | :50:03. | |
from any sort of watching games live. I like going to watch the | :50:04. | :50:10. | |
games live but I didn't want to get the feeling of trying to come back | :50:11. | :50:13. | |
quick again. Have you gone back to watching games | :50:14. | :50:20. | |
now? No. To be honest, the first game I went to was the last game of | :50:21. | :50:25. | |
the season. It was good, to be fair. But straightaway, I knew, I missed | :50:26. | :50:32. | |
playing. I missed playing. Saying that, I made the decision to stay | :50:33. | :50:35. | |
away. Are there people who have had knee | :50:36. | :50:40. | |
injuries, asking about your's, how you are recovering? There are lots | :50:41. | :50:44. | |
of people that ask for guidance tonne what to do. I will try to put | :50:45. | :50:49. | |
something together. Maybe a couple of friends at my stage of my injury | :50:50. | :50:54. | |
and get them to work with me for two, three, four days and see what I | :50:55. | :51:00. | |
am doing and carry it on. Social media rehab guidance? Yeah. | :51:01. | :51:05. | |
Rehab guidance. Showing the fans what I am doing behind the scenes | :51:06. | :51:09. | |
they may appreciate it. It may give them patience to wait for the best | :51:10. | :51:13. | |
of me to come out when I come back as they know the work I've been | :51:14. | :51:20. | |
putting in behind the scenes. Terrific delivery from Bolaise. When | :51:21. | :51:25. | |
I look at what I was doing, when I was playing. I had four assists. | :51:26. | :51:30. | |
That was up there the league. I created about nine big chances. That | :51:31. | :51:42. | |
was the top. Just behind Le Gronje. What has Ronald Koeman been like to | :51:43. | :51:47. | |
work with? He is a normal person, obviously very strict as well. If | :51:48. | :51:52. | |
you are not doing it well, he will tell you how it is. As a player, you | :51:53. | :51:58. | |
don't want somebody telling you are doing good but then next week you | :51:59. | :52:02. | |
are out of the team as you have not been told the truth and you are | :52:03. | :52:07. | |
unable to improve tonne. He has almost the perfect mindset to | :52:08. | :52:11. | |
come back from injury. Thinking about it positively. Spending time | :52:12. | :52:15. | |
with the players who have been through the same thing, hoping and | :52:16. | :52:20. | |
trusting he will come back as good as before? He has had a positive | :52:21. | :52:25. | |
mindset with such a horrific injuries. Everton have been great | :52:26. | :52:30. | |
with him. He has been doing lots of social media with them and his own. | :52:31. | :52:36. | |
The idea talking about integrating with fans with knee injuries, | :52:37. | :52:39. | |
swapping information it is a great idea. What I get from speaking to | :52:40. | :52:44. | |
him is how much he is missing it. Now he is talking about how much of | :52:45. | :52:48. | |
a privilege it is just to run. He is starting to get to that jogging | :52:49. | :52:52. | |
phase. He is starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. | :52:53. | :52:59. | |
It is the dip, how far away it is, and then the anticipation as to when | :53:00. | :53:04. | |
you come back. The big thing for Everton is Berkeley. Ronald Koeman | :53:05. | :53:10. | |
saying if he is not confident, he will stay out? Looking ATCOman's | :53:11. | :53:16. | |
history in the transfer, he has very, very good. He will have | :53:17. | :53:21. | |
somebody in his mind if Berkeley goes. You think of Baines, there is | :53:22. | :53:32. | |
a lot of stuff happening to Everton. It will be a busy summer. Lots of | :53:33. | :53:37. | |
players coming and going. Now, who better than a band who love | :53:38. | :53:53. | |
a sea gull... Ben Thatcher. I got off a plane and went down the | :53:54. | :53:59. | |
parade and partied like an animal. It was great to see how excited the | :54:00. | :54:04. | |
whole city was we were getting promoted and to see that the players | :54:05. | :54:09. | |
were there on the stage just having a party it was brilliant. It has | :54:10. | :54:13. | |
pulled the city together almost. We are all together supporting our | :54:14. | :54:17. | |
club. You look at the background of the club to see where it came from, | :54:18. | :54:22. | |
it is amazing to reach promotion it will be a great season. We're going | :54:23. | :54:27. | |
to stand out and we're going to do it. We might even do a Leicester. | :54:28. | :54:34. | |
Who knows?! It's going to be a great game. I reckon it will be a 1-1. | :54:35. | :54:44. | |
We are going to see City destroy them, 4-1. | :54:45. | :54:48. | |
All of those predictions on the website. There is live women's | :54:49. | :54:53. | |
spring league series football on the Red Button in a few minute's time. | :54:54. | :55:01. | |
Arsenal ladies against Birmingham ladies, commentary with Vicky | :55:02. | :55:05. | |
Sparks. And perhaps the greatest own goal ever scored. This is Swiss | :55:06. | :55:13. | |
lower league side football. Clears the ball, wait for it. That's how it | :55:14. | :55:20. | |
is done. The result's gone viral. He was not expecting the centre half | :55:21. | :55:23. | |
to do that. That is so good. I would like to see | :55:24. | :55:29. | |
that played again. Danny talk about it again? I think | :55:30. | :55:33. | |
it is beautiful. It is poor! Poor decision. Poor technique. Why even | :55:34. | :55:41. | |
try it?! The execution was magnificent. | :55:42. | :55:46. | |
If he meant it. But he only has not. If you tuned in, you think it is a | :55:47. | :55:51. | |
great goal. But have you ever scored an own goal? I don't think so. | :55:52. | :55:57. | |
I don't think I Z Scored a few lucky ones. | :55:58. | :56:00. | |
If you bag one of those, whatever end, you would be happy! Gentlemen, | :56:01. | :56:05. | |
thank you very much. That is it Norfolk folk this season. The final | :56:06. | :56:10. | |
show is coming live from Wembley next Saturday at mid-day. These two | :56:11. | :56:14. | |
are here working for the BBC. It is Chelsea going for the double and | :56:15. | :56:19. | |
Arsenal looking for a seventh FA Cup ander Arsene Wenger. A nice way to | :56:20. | :56:22. | |
finish a good season. See you soon. We have the boys from the BBC | :56:23. | :56:38. | |
today... Let's do this. See you at the bottom! There is no way that | :56:39. | :56:47. | |
they are going to collaborate! I am stuck inside! Look at that... Thank | :56:48. | :56:57. | |
you. You don't work hard, you don't get | :56:58. | :57:01. | |
anything back. According to my philosophy. | :57:02. | :57:04. | |
Is everybody's phone turned to silent? Oh, no, that is me. | :57:05. | :57:11. | |
What a schoolboy! Go I am in the middle of an interview. | :57:12. | :57:17. | |
You can tell it when Garth is enjoying an interview, he starts | :57:18. | :57:20. | |
nodding. Slow and steady with good use of the hand. Look at the speed | :57:21. | :57:24. | |
version. There it is. That is funny. | :57:25. | :57:29. | |
You have done some renovations? A major improvement and the showers | :57:30. | :57:33. | |
are in great working order. Wow! You perform the robot with your | :57:34. | :57:46. | |
usual balletic grace! Half the reason people enjoy it because I'm | :57:47. | :57:52. | |
not that good at it. Wayne Rooney, record-of breaker! It | :57:53. | :58:00. | |
was nice to get to that point and nice that he was there. | :58:01. | :58:05. | |
Can we do the special hand-shake now. | :58:06. | :58:11. | |
What a finish that is! It's a glorious goal from Eden Hazard. | :58:12. | :58:17. | |
You're absolutely killing it. It's good, yeah? | :58:18. | :58:27. | |
Compared to the real one, Jacob but good still... Out of ten? Five! Like | :58:28. | :58:48. | |
a chunga... Makes me happy. Makes me feel all right! How many days older | :58:49. | :58:55. | |
are you than Robbie? He is the 14th of January. He is the 31st. | :58:56. | :59:00. | |
How many days is that? Jeez! | :59:01. | :59:02. |
