:01:05. > :02:14.In Bill Shankly 's Bastian of invincibility, Anfield has produced

:02:48. > :02:55.Two changes from the draw with Napoli in the Europa League. Great
:02:56. > :03:03.warmth between the rival teams today. Brendan Rodgers was in charge
:03:04. > :03:06.of Swansea 84 times in the league winning 34 games and with Garry
:03:07. > :03:12.Monk, they climbed through the divisions together. Garry Monk is
:03:13. > :03:19.now in the opposite dugout. 14 home wins in 16 games here at Liverpool
:03:20. > :03:27.in competitions. Swansea have not won away since they went to follow
:03:28. > :03:33.them in November 8th games ago. -- Fulham. Swansea have had to use
:03:34. > :03:41.their full squad for a number of games because of the Europa League
:03:42. > :03:49.campaign. Raheem Sterling, a lovely strike, and Daniel Sturridge!
:03:50. > :03:59.Liverpool have the lead inside three minutes. Given away high up the
:04:00. > :04:06.pitch. A lovely ball! A striker 's finish. He cannot stop scoring.
:04:07. > :04:12.Wonderful form and every time he scores for Liverpool, it must be a
:04:13. > :04:19.dagger in the heart of Chelsea fans. 31 goals in 39 games for Liverpool,
:04:20. > :04:22.24 this season for Daniel Sturridge, very consistent. Ten out of ten
:04:23. > :04:27.games in all competitions. And he was out for a while injured.
:04:28. > :04:42.Throughout the season, both teams have had possession in their games.
:04:43. > :04:46.This is Raheem Sterling, squeezed away by the Dutch goalkeeper. A
:04:47. > :04:50.great start by Liverpool. Garry Monk came all the way through with
:04:51. > :04:57.Swansea. 200 league games for the club.
:04:58. > :05:04.Martin Skrtel, battling hard. Martin Johnson, he needs to stay fit for
:05:05. > :05:12.the rest of the season. Luis Suarez. Henderson in the middle.
:05:13. > :05:24.Henderson. He drives it! Daniel Sturridge made it, Jordan Henderson
:05:25. > :05:28.scored it exquisitely. A very good home performance a game. Daniel
:05:29. > :05:34.Sturridge to the line, a tackle on the half term. Swansea were in
:05:35. > :05:43.trouble, too much Henderson. He struck it on the right foot ending
:05:44. > :05:46.away from the goalkeeper. From the minute Henderson struck it, it was
:05:47. > :05:52.always destined for the top corner of the net. Two -- zero. Recent
:05:53. > :06:01.events. In C, the departure of Michael Laudrup -- recent events,
:06:02. > :06:07.including a part -- the departure of Michael Laudrup, the return of the
:06:08. > :06:14.Europa League, it has blurred the focus which should be staying on the
:06:15. > :06:19.Premier League. Jonjo Shelvey! What a great goal! A tremendous reception
:06:20. > :06:31.from the House macro funds, let alone the Swansea fans. -- the House
:06:32. > :06:36.macro funds. -- Liverpool fans. Muted celebrations for him out of
:06:37. > :06:41.respect for Liverpool, but Anfield paid him the greatest respect. What
:06:42. > :06:50.a lovely goal! Liverpool Post Mac buffer lasted five minutes. --
:06:51. > :06:59.Liverpool Post Mac buffer. Jumpers for goalposts, wonderful. --
:07:00. > :07:03.Liverpool's buffer. That is the right decision because Martin Skrtel
:07:04. > :07:11.court Jonjo Shelvey, and he is cautioned for hit. -- for it. There
:07:12. > :07:21.was a scratch down Jonjo Shelvey 's calf. There will be home and here if
:07:22. > :07:30.Swansea score, and they have! Wilfried Bony got the first touch.
:07:31. > :07:39.He will claim the goal. It may well have gone off Martin Skrtel. It did!
:07:40. > :07:43.Wilfried Bony will claim it. Was it going wide or into the hands of the
:07:44. > :07:50.goalkeeper? If so, it has to be an own goal. The glare and spotlight is
:07:51. > :08:01.on Martin Skrtel. Sweet and sour first half.
:08:02. > :08:11.Philippe Coutinho, a lucky break for Liverpool. Raheem Sterling did not
:08:12. > :08:20.know what to do with it. This is Johnson. Towards Henderson. To
:08:21. > :08:28.Philippe Coutinho. Out to Luis Suarez. Past Daniel Sturridge! The
:08:29. > :08:40.two of them combined to game, 3-2, Liverpool. -- combined again. Look
:08:41. > :08:47.at this for a pass! Daniel Sturridge, between the centre backs,
:08:48. > :08:51.Swansea will not be happy with that. Liverpool three, Swansea two. Able
:08:52. > :09:04.witching first half! The second of the game for Daniel Sturridge. -- a
:09:05. > :09:10.bewitching. 11 in 11 games now, 21 this season, for Daniel Sturridge.
:09:11. > :09:18.Luis Suarez has gone for the extravagance. Is he currently the
:09:19. > :09:27.best player on the planet? Messi, Ronaldo... But Luis Suarez is in
:09:28. > :09:29.remarkable form. Two teams playing the Brendan Rodgers way, passing
:09:30. > :09:37.from the back. Wilfried Bony. A good save. That is
:09:38. > :09:51.a worthy effort. A controlled shot. A change for Swansea. There is a
:09:52. > :10:09.hamstring problem. He was on the ball too long as the
:10:10. > :10:13.mistake by Raheem Sterling has given an opportunity. It is a penalty.
:10:14. > :10:19.Martin Skrtel was pulling on Wilfried Bony. The referee has given
:10:20. > :10:23.a very big decision in the opening minutes of the second half and again
:10:24. > :10:28.it is against Martin Skrtel who seemed to stumble. Wilfried Bony
:10:29. > :10:34.went down. Two big decisions against Martin Skrtel and there did not seem
:10:35. > :10:40.to be much in that. Wilfried Bony will claim the first that went off
:10:41. > :10:47.the head of Martin Skrtel and he gets the goal that makes it 3-3, and
:10:48. > :10:52.that is 19 for the campaign for him. Liverpool will be unhappy with the
:10:53. > :10:59.decision. He took it brilliantly. Got across the ground so quickly.
:11:00. > :11:07.Could not keep it out. Now Daniel Sturridge.
:11:08. > :11:16.Luis Suarez behind. Luis Suarez! The extra touch took it wider. An easier
:11:17. > :11:22.job for Michel Vorm but it was still a good save. You would have expected
:11:23. > :11:31.him to take that. Liverpool 's opens the season have come out of the
:11:32. > :11:37.changing back four -- problems. The signings have not been spectacular.
:11:38. > :11:42.Liverpool have given that away. Swansea are on top. The team most
:11:43. > :11:51.likely to get the breakthrough. Sloppy from Johnson. Liverpool have
:11:52. > :11:59.led to macro-0 but Swansea look more dangerous at the moment. -- 2-0.
:12:00. > :12:13.That is a good ball. Henderson need support. -- needs. Anderson is still
:12:14. > :12:20.going. That is the spin and the chip. The full-back was well placed
:12:21. > :12:25.to receive that. But when you score the goals he has and you are
:12:26. > :12:36.confident, why not if you have that sort of skill? Off target.
:12:37. > :12:43.Surprised Liverpool have not got around the centre half more, but
:12:44. > :12:45.they have done now. Daniel Sturridge, brilliant recovery by
:12:46. > :12:53.Ashley Williams. Sensational recovery either defender. Williams
:12:54. > :13:00.got back. Should have been another goal for Liverpool. This is Johnson.
:13:01. > :13:05.That was a petulant challenge. Luis Suarez into the edge of the box...
:13:06. > :13:10.Swansea said he made a meal of it and Williams had words. Was he
:13:11. > :13:17.tripped? No, nothing wrong with that. The decision was right. The
:13:18. > :13:24.challenge I Martin Skrtel for the penalty was very soft. -- the
:13:25. > :13:32.challenge by. You can understand we Liverpool are frustrated. -- why
:13:33. > :13:37.Liverpool. A follow up by Henderson and Liverpool are ahead. It was a
:13:38. > :13:42.wonderful pass from Steven Gerrard initially and Liverpool lead to game
:13:43. > :13:49.in such a topsy-turvy afternoon. -- lead again. What about that pass?
:13:50. > :13:55.Luis Suarez took it brilliantly and Henderson finished it off. Williams
:13:56. > :14:04.back into the path of Henderson. Eventually beaten. The Premier
:14:05. > :14:12.League 's top scorers now. Liverpool have 70, above Manchester as the
:14:13. > :14:18.division 's top scorers. Less than two minutes now. The foul has not
:14:19. > :14:25.been given. Out wide. Luis Suarez continues his run to find space on
:14:26. > :14:30.the left, always working. Liverpool have not passed as well as they can
:14:31. > :14:38.in this second-half. Philippe Coutinho.
:14:39. > :14:47.He has been busy since he came on. Steven Gerrard, off the post! The
:14:48. > :14:52.captain is so unlucky. Luis Suarez is waiting in the middle but he
:14:53. > :14:56.could not find him. I think it took a deflection, it did. It went of
:14:57. > :15:11.Chico Flores. The strong part of our game at the
:15:12. > :15:16.offensive, is very strong. We were disappointed with the goals we
:15:17. > :15:21.conceded. We were unfortunate. We gave a goal away from a free kick.
:15:22. > :15:28.We gave them a penalty, which did not look like a penalty. There was
:15:29. > :15:35.contact with both players. Overall, it was a tough game. Swansea are an
:15:36. > :15:41.excellent side - a very good team. A brilliant victory for us. An
:15:42. > :15:49.important three points. The first goal you were involved in, was it
:15:50. > :15:58.you will go on one own goal? It was my goal. And the penalty? Was it a
:15:59. > :16:06.definite penalty? He blocked me. I think so. Do you get a sense that
:16:07. > :16:11.people are believing it could be Liverpool 's year? I think so. We
:16:12. > :16:19.need to be focused on what we need to do as the team. The fans are
:16:20. > :16:25.dreaming as we are. There is a long way to go. We need to keep digging
:16:26. > :16:31.in and working hard. The first half we did not play particularly well.
:16:32. > :16:38.It was the belief we did not see in the first half which we have had in
:16:39. > :16:43.all the games we had before. We were taking too many touches. In the
:16:44. > :16:48.second half we came out with that belief. Very difficult not to get it
:16:49. > :16:53.from an team who are pushing for the league. We had a belief going in the
:16:54. > :17:02.second half. We deserved something from the game. Steven Gerrard said
:17:03. > :17:08.we have won nothing yet. He is right. There is a lot of work to do.
:17:09. > :17:13.We are building a nice gap between the teams around us. We need to keep
:17:14. > :17:21.winning. More importantly, we need to play well. When we play well, we
:17:22. > :17:27.win. That is important. They are the Premier League top scorers. When you
:17:28. > :17:31.look at the major European leagues, they have two players in the top
:17:32. > :17:38.echelon of strikers, when you are looking at minutes per goal. Daniel
:17:39. > :17:46.Sturridge is second, ahead of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel messy.
:17:47. > :17:52.Daniel Sturridge has scored 26 goals. When you see him in the form
:17:53. > :17:57.he is in, he is looking like he is a confident player and he will score
:17:58. > :18:02.every time he gets the ball. That was a great through ball from Raheem
:18:03. > :18:06.Sterling. He has it in his locker now where he can create. He has gone
:18:07. > :18:19.out wide. A good ball played in. He does not wait for it. He goes
:18:20. > :18:25.between the goals and gets his reward. It was a brilliant finish.
:18:26. > :18:32.He can create. A lovely move with Raheem Sterling and a through ball
:18:33. > :18:41.to Daniel -- Luis Suarez. A couple of times he is selfish but which you
:18:42. > :18:48.expect that? A couple of times Suarez was frustrated and players
:18:49. > :18:53.got frustrated with him. We have had a ding-dong about whether an attack
:18:54. > :18:57.were defence could win you a Premier league title. It is the only thing
:18:58. > :19:04.that lets them down. They have been phenomenal with the goal-scoring.
:19:05. > :19:09.Games against Swansea, they scored two and conceded two. With Everton,
:19:10. > :19:13.they let in three. If they have won all those games and had a better
:19:14. > :19:18.defence, they would have been four points clear and top of the league.
:19:19. > :19:22.I am not sure of the central defensive partnership. It has
:19:23. > :19:30.changed a lot. They have not had a settled back for all season long.
:19:31. > :19:42.Skirtle has had a very up and down season. -- Martin Skrtel. It has
:19:43. > :19:47.been individual errors. He runs the ball out of play. I am not sure
:19:48. > :19:54.where he is going. He is the wrong side of his marker. The players get
:19:55. > :20:01.free headers. I think that when town as a goal for Wilfried Bony. It is a
:20:02. > :20:07.soft penalty, I do have to say. It has not been the only time where
:20:08. > :20:13.Liverpool have been sloppy at the back. They do not have a settled
:20:14. > :20:24.back four. Till today they kept the same back for four games in a row.
:20:25. > :20:31.When you look at this, he passes the ball. Straight across the back four.
:20:32. > :20:35.That has happened a lot. He was involved again. A classic own goal.
:20:36. > :20:45.It is down to individual errors. That too is -- that is the big
:20:46. > :20:49.problem. At the end of all of that and seeing those errors, if you have
:20:50. > :20:55.the best attack, what difference does it make? With a better defence,
:20:56. > :20:59.they would be top of the league. I mean it have a fantastic defence
:21:00. > :21:07.with nine goals. Chelsea are top of the league and they have the best
:21:08. > :21:16.defence. You need a bit of both. History does suggest the top scorers
:21:17. > :21:22.win the Premier league. Let's have a look at the contentious decisions.
:21:23. > :21:31.Brendan Rodgers moaned about a couple of decisions. Swansea at one
:21:32. > :21:37.point wanted a swing kick -- a free kick. He got booked but it was soft.
:21:38. > :21:44.It was definitely a free kick. That was a definite booking. That is a
:21:45. > :21:49.definite yellow card. He was lucky. With the penalty, if that is a
:21:50. > :21:56.penalty, he must book him again. Sky he was lucky not to be sent off.
:21:57. > :22:02.Yellow because he did not bring the first one -- he was lucky not to be
:22:03. > :22:12.sent off. Because he did not give the first one, he could not give
:22:13. > :22:17.that. If he has given the penalty, he should have booked him. I think
:22:18. > :22:24.he should have been sent off because he should have received two yellow
:22:25. > :22:28.cards. Garry Monk showed a lot more desire in the second half. Brendan
:22:29. > :22:34.Rodgers said he saw signs that Garry Monk is getting Swansea to play like
:22:35. > :22:41.they did under him. They had made some dire in the side as well. He
:22:42. > :22:47.gives them dynamic pace. They have had Everton and Napoli in the cup.
:22:48. > :22:57.They have had a big week. They can be pleased with their second-half
:22:58. > :23:04.performance. Spurs went into this game where the chief executive
:23:05. > :23:13.seemed to increase the pressure on Chris Hughton, -- Chris Hughton. The
:23:14. > :23:19.Canaries are looking to improve on their poor record in front of goal.
:23:20. > :23:23.Emmanuel Adebayor has no such problems. Nine goals for the
:23:24. > :23:30.Tottenham striker, including Dublin 4-0 win at Newcastle. -- a double in
:23:31. > :23:41.their 4-0 win at Newcastle. Plenty forward for Norwich. Robert
:23:42. > :23:55.Snodgrass to take. Ricky van Wolfswinkel could not get
:23:56. > :24:14.a touch and then could not get a touch again. Not once, but twice.
:24:15. > :24:26.That was a nice pull-back. What a chance for Norwich! A lovely run and
:24:27. > :24:33.move. Leroy Fer could not quite get into position to unleash a shot. We
:24:34. > :24:38.could have late drama in added time of the first half. There has not
:24:39. > :24:49.been too much action in the first 45. Ricky van Wolfswinkel was
:24:50. > :24:52.fouled. Robert Snodgrass to take the free kick. It goes into a crowded
:24:53. > :25:04.penalty area. He did get the final touch as
:25:05. > :25:11.Johnson came in. That is the end of a first half which has been largely
:25:12. > :25:16.undistinguished. Norwich have scored only two goals in six home Premier
:25:17. > :25:30.league games against Tottenham. Wes who had his on the bench today. --
:25:31. > :25:32.Wes Hoolahan. In the first half, neither of these two sides looked
:25:33. > :25:56.like breaking the deadlock. Robert Snodgrass! Norwich are in
:25:57. > :26:00.front 90 seconds into the second half. Robert Snodgrass with his
:26:01. > :26:07.fourth goal of the season. And Norwich lead at Harrow Road. It is
:26:08. > :26:13.their 20th goal in the Premier League this season. Tottenham
:26:14. > :26:19.conceding possession and, look at the top of your picture. He is
:26:20. > :26:23.clearly onside. Robert Snodgrass in behind the Tottenham defence. He was
:26:24. > :26:32.able to place the shot beyond Hugo Lloris. A huge relief amongst the
:26:33. > :26:40.home support. Robert Snodgrass with the goal and Chris Hughton 's team
:26:41. > :26:46.are in front. You really would not have put a great deal of money on
:26:47. > :26:49.that happening inside the opening couple of minutes based on the
:26:50. > :26:58.evidence of the first half in its entirety.
:26:59. > :27:07.John Ruddy dived at the feet of Emmanuel Adebayor and retained
:27:08. > :27:10.Norwich 's 1-0 advantage. That could be a pivotal safe from the Norwich
:27:11. > :27:19.keeper. Picked up by Robert Snodgrass.
:27:20. > :27:28.That was a powerful shot. Hugo Lloris right behind it. A hugely
:27:29. > :27:36.important save this from John Ruddy. The first time that Norwich have not
:27:37. > :27:38.dealt with the ball forward. John Ruddy was quickly out to smother the
:27:39. > :28:02.danger. Terrific goalkeeping. Once more, John Ruddy is there. The
:28:03. > :28:09.Norwich goalkeeper was always the favourite to get to this loose ball.
:28:10. > :28:12.Tottenham need a goal and they will be hoping that Roberto Soldado can
:28:13. > :28:30.provide it. He comes on for Paoli Neo. -- Pauline yellow.
:28:31. > :28:41.He put it wide. Lovely ball from Emmanuel Adebayor. It was always
:28:42. > :28:59.heading wide from the Spanish international, Roberto Soldado.
:29:00. > :29:08.Aaron Lennon with the ball in. That was twice in as many minutes that
:29:09. > :29:12.Roberto Soldado has two hold his head in his hands. Chris Hughton and
:29:13. > :29:17.Norwich with the perfect response to comment earlier this week from the
:29:18. > :29:24.Norwich chief executive, David McNally. And his team hold on for
:29:25. > :29:32.what would be a huge victory? -- can his team hold on? Gary Hooper,
:29:33. > :29:36.Robert Snodgrass. He waits for help from Martin. Hooper was caught. It
:29:37. > :29:49.is a caution. This is the sort of free kick
:29:50. > :30:05.position that Robert Snodgrass excels at. Robert Snodgrass. Just
:30:06. > :30:16.wide. Hugo Lloris had it covered. Soldado. Battling hard. Foul.
:30:17. > :30:24.Lennon. Waiting for Norton on the nearside. Instead chooses Nacer
:30:25. > :30:33.Chadli. Cleared to safety by Robert Snodgrass. This was Tottenham 's
:30:34. > :30:40.first shot on target in the match. He stays down. Hooper was onside. He
:30:41. > :30:44.would get to the loose ball, the referee thought about playing an
:30:45. > :30:55.advantage when there was not one, he brings it back for the free kick. It
:30:56. > :31:05.is Bradley Johnson! And Tottenham get it clear. What a free kick!
:31:06. > :31:13.Nathan Redmond, in space, Hugo Lloris with the save. He cannot get
:31:14. > :31:20.there. Now he can. Great excitement at Carrow Road. That is very close
:31:21. > :31:24.but the camera proves the ball did not completely crossed the line. It
:31:25. > :31:32.was an absolutely brilliant free kick. -- cross. Norwich fans in full
:31:33. > :31:37.voice as they search for a second goal which surely would earn them
:31:38. > :31:52.all three points. Robert Snodgrass towards Hooper. Hooper. Norwich
:31:53. > :32:02.cannot get a second goal. How costly kebabs we? -- could that be. Hooper
:32:03. > :32:08.with the run forward, looking to see where his team-mate is, it did not
:32:09. > :32:13.work. Chris Hughton 's team seconds away from victory. Into the last
:32:14. > :32:21.minute at Carrow Road. Can Norwich hold on? Let's be having you! Let's
:32:22. > :32:26.be having the full-time whistle! It is victory for Norwich City! Chris
:32:27. > :32:33.Hughton beats his old club thanks to a goal early in the second-half from
:32:34. > :32:37.Robert Snodgrass. And this is a huge three points for the Norfolk club.
:32:38. > :32:48.What a finish from Robertson is. Super finish. -- from Robert
:32:49. > :32:53.Snodgrass. The game became open after that and we had to defend
:32:54. > :32:56.well. John Ruddy came away from his line on a couple of occasions really
:32:57. > :33:01.well, the centre halves had their work cut out but performed
:33:02. > :33:05.magnificently. And we had opportunities to get that second
:33:06. > :33:10.goal and that is what we are lacking. The second half is more
:33:11. > :33:16.like what we can do. We have talked about poor start and it was not good
:33:17. > :33:20.again today, it was not poor against Newcastle and we saw the reward.
:33:21. > :33:26.Bitterly disappointed we have dropped points in this race for
:33:27. > :33:31.fourth place. The comments from the Chief Executive this week cannot
:33:32. > :33:37.have helped you. It is in this game and being a manager, it is tough and
:33:38. > :33:40.there are a lot of things you have to do. We have busy weeks and lots
:33:41. > :33:47.of decisions to make. The only thing on my mind was to get a win today.
:33:48. > :33:54.You can see that we are behind the manager and what goes on. We cannot
:33:55. > :33:59.affect it, the manager has a job to do and he has to put his best side
:34:00. > :34:05.out to win the game. And he got it spot on today because we just beat a
:34:06. > :34:11.side that of playing with confidence. Is it lazy to save the
:34:12. > :34:17.effects of the long trip caught up with you? It is just another game,
:34:18. > :34:22.it you cannot use travelling as an excuse. It just did not affect us in
:34:23. > :34:27.the second period when we were stronger so if we were tired, we
:34:28. > :34:32.would have loan up but we did not. -- blown up. Tim Sherwood said it
:34:33. > :34:39.would be lazy to blame the Europa League. This would be the seventh
:34:40. > :34:45.defeat after the Roper league. They did not have energy in the first
:34:46. > :34:48.half. -- Europa League. It was before the 84th minute before they
:34:49. > :34:56.had a shot on target so Norwich deserved to win. The first half was
:34:57. > :35:00.poor for both sides. You think Norwich were affected by what has
:35:01. > :35:06.gone on? Definitely, Chris Hughton was under unnecessary treasure and
:35:07. > :35:13.the players felt that. -- pressure. None of them wanted the ball.
:35:14. > :35:19.Midfielders hiding a bit and not demanding the ball.
:35:20. > :35:28.You'd see here pointing, give it to somebody else. Bradley Johnson
:35:29. > :35:36.running behind players. There was no communication. He called Johnson out
:35:37. > :35:41.of that position. There was none of that communication. It did not like
:35:42. > :35:47.-- it looked like a never side under pressure from what was said in the
:35:48. > :35:50.week. Bradley Johnson is saying, give it to somebody else and they
:35:51. > :35:58.are turning their backs. He gets bullied away from the ball. There
:35:59. > :36:01.was not the hunger or desire to take responsibility in the first half.
:36:02. > :36:05.Whatever Chris Hughton said at half-time worked and they were more
:36:06. > :36:08.positive. The goal from Robert Snodgrass created confidence and
:36:09. > :36:21.that led to Norwich creating more chances. It did, he did really well
:36:22. > :36:24.to win the ball from Danny Rose. It was a wonderful pass and finish. I
:36:25. > :36:28.felt if Norwich were going to win today, it would be Robert
:36:29. > :36:34.Snodgrass, he was the best player on the pitch. Redman makes this goal,
:36:35. > :36:40.his desire to make this run, 60 yards, affects Dawson. He sees the
:36:41. > :36:47.run and to looks over his shoulder and he pulls away. This opens up the
:36:48. > :36:51.space. He has gone deep and he plays everyone onside and Johnson has
:36:52. > :36:56.acres of space and he has time will stop it is that one run and you
:36:57. > :37:02.cannot be selfish. -- and he has time. Norwich could not kill the
:37:03. > :37:06.game off and that has been their biggest problem, they have only
:37:07. > :37:12.scored 20 goals, the third lowest in the Premier League. You need to
:37:13. > :37:24.score goals! In your theory, they were becoming down! -- a will be
:37:25. > :37:33.going down. This is a lazy flick. He tries to be too clever. He is too
:37:34. > :37:37.hasty. It is a simple tap in. Norwich did cause problems and
:37:38. > :37:43.create chances in the second half. You mentioned winning the ball in
:37:44. > :37:47.the goal, do you have sympathy to date when you see a player so
:37:48. > :37:53.obviously without confidence? Hush today. It was a brave decision to
:37:54. > :38:01.lay him because he has no conviction. He misses the header. --
:38:02. > :38:08.to play him. He is caught in different minds and he does nothing.
:38:09. > :38:13.He should knock this out of his feet. Dawson has not got pace and he
:38:14. > :38:19.would not have caught him but because he does not have the
:38:20. > :38:23.confidence... As a striker, you want to bring your team-mates into play.
:38:24. > :38:28.He looks lost at the moment and week. He does not look to be up to
:38:29. > :38:35.the physicality of the Premier League. -- weak. You have got to
:38:36. > :38:39.work hard and put defenders under pressure and that is not is part of
:38:40. > :38:45.his name and so I was surprised Hooper did not start. But the only
:38:46. > :38:53.way to get confident is playing, it is a vicious circle!
:38:54. > :38:56.Or training. Chris Hughton probably wants to have him the game time to
:38:57. > :39:00.get him through that but when you are not scoring and your team is at
:39:01. > :39:09.the bottom of the league, it is more pressure. He has had four shots on
:39:10. > :39:15.target in 18 appearances. What responsibility do his team-mates
:39:16. > :39:20.have? Norwich cannot afford... They cannot carry players. He is a
:39:21. > :39:29.quality player, he has proved that before. But he just cannot... It is
:39:30. > :39:34.a risk playing him when he will not create chances or score goals.
:39:35. > :39:37.Saturday 's action, next we go to St James' Park where Joy has been hard
:39:38. > :39:53.to find recently. Another devastating defeat for
:39:54. > :39:59.Newcastle United! I do not think that was an honest
:40:00. > :40:11.display from us. We certainly lacked confidence
:40:12. > :40:19.tonight and we lacked a lot of other things as well! A great chance
:40:20. > :40:20.here! I will make sure that is not replicated a game against Aston
:40:21. > :40:32.Villa. There is tension, Newcastle have the
:40:33. > :40:37.possibility of a fifth successive home defeat for the first time since
:40:38. > :40:44.1953. Alan Pardew can recall some of his key players to arrest the slide,
:40:45. > :40:49.top player Loic Remy returns from suspension and other players from
:40:50. > :41:01.injury. Paul Lambert thinks Villa can take advantage. He recalls Karim
:41:02. > :41:12.El Ahmadi. Trying to put a smile back on Tyneside. This is Cheick
:41:13. > :41:20.Tiote. Loic Remy. Loic Remy went alone. Gathered in the end. A boost
:41:21. > :41:29.of self belief for Newcastle to have their top scorer back after a three
:41:30. > :41:35.match absence. Papiss Cisse has a bit of space. Villa are thankful it
:41:36. > :41:44.spilled out to Nathan Baker and not a Newcastle layer. -- player. Four
:41:45. > :41:54.points from 24, not a good run for Alan Pardew. 20 of bodies here.
:41:55. > :42:03.It is a good run by Karim El Ahmadi. But the delivery was behind
:42:04. > :42:12.the Belgian. Newcastle were thankful for that. Nervousness in the
:42:13. > :42:19.Newcastle backline. That was teasing. Sliding in at the back
:42:20. > :42:23.post. I have had a couple of warnings in this situation,
:42:24. > :42:27.Newcastle, look at this space -- they have had. Before that, nobody
:42:28. > :42:35.went. Watch the Moroccan international, acres of space, and
:42:36. > :42:42.that could have been put on a play. Aston Villa have taken nine points
:42:43. > :42:55.from the last possible 36. Again, plenty of runners forward for Aston
:42:56. > :43:02.Villa. Gabriel Agbonlahor! Beaten away by Tim Krul. Space at both
:43:03. > :43:09.ends. Most recently in Newcastle 's defensive area. It is a long way
:43:10. > :43:14.out, he does go for it. A good strike from Gabriel Agbonlahor.
:43:15. > :43:20.Always rising. That would not have been stopped if it was on target.
:43:21. > :43:21.This was the move that against sort defensive lapses, too much time and
:43:22. > :43:37.space, denied by the goalkeeper. He felt he was fouled, Martin
:43:38. > :43:43.Atkinson did not. Loic Remy is caught on the edge of the penalty
:43:44. > :43:47.area by Ron Vlaar. It is a yellow card for the Aston Villa skipper and
:43:48. > :43:54.the first of the game. A great turn from Loic Remy. How Newcastle could
:43:55. > :44:03.do with a left and a moment of magic. -- a lift. He went for the
:44:04. > :44:07.curler and could not find the target, you could see what he was
:44:08. > :44:15.trying to do, Newcastle 's top scorer.
:44:16. > :44:24.The last minute of stoppage time. Is there a bright end to the half?
:44:25. > :44:33.Oh, dear! What a big moment that could be. The clearest opportunity
:44:34. > :44:38.of the first 45 minutes by some distance. Papiss Cisse unable to
:44:39. > :44:39.take it. That sums up the trials and tribulations for Newcastle at the
:44:40. > :45:01.moment. You could hear the groans all around
:45:02. > :45:08.the ground. They are desperate for one to go in. He could not force
:45:09. > :45:24.that one in. That was the wrong side of the post.
:45:25. > :45:33.It was curling and dipping. Not enough from Newcastle 's point of
:45:34. > :45:38.view. Over seven hours since his team have scored a Premier league
:45:39. > :45:39.goal at St James' Park. They are desperate for one to arrive
:45:40. > :45:55.imminently. A roar of encouragement from the
:45:56. > :45:56.home supporters. They just need one of these to drop. More frustration
:45:57. > :46:10.from Alan Pardew. 30 minutes to go. The Aston Villa skipper does not
:46:11. > :46:27.agree that it was a foul. It was disappointing to say the
:46:28. > :46:48.least, straight against the wall. It was blocked by Baker. Out to Anita.
:46:49. > :46:52.That was a good challenge by Williamson. Otherwise Newcastle were
:46:53. > :47:12.in trouble. Finally in Newcastle roar. Loic Remy
:47:13. > :47:16.denied by Brad Cruzan. -- the goalkeeper. Can they make one camp,
:47:17. > :47:39.Newcastle? Still Newcastle cannot get a body on
:47:40. > :47:47.the end of one of those crosses. Calls for handball. There was only
:47:48. > :47:50.one place that was going, and that was over the crossbar. Newcastle
:47:51. > :48:00.were desperately appealing for hands. Did it strike his hand? It
:48:01. > :48:11.was not clear cut and it was not a convincing appeal.
:48:12. > :48:20.Loic Remy! Can you believe it? Most of St James' Park cannot. Everything
:48:21. > :48:27.seems to be going against Newcastle at the moment.
:48:28. > :48:34.A sensible pass. Nobody else that Newcastle would have wanted that to
:48:35. > :48:36.fall too. He could only hit the post with the goal gaping. He cannot bear
:48:37. > :49:05.to watch. Loic Remy! In the 92nd minute. It is
:49:06. > :49:15.a huge goal for Newcastle United. And it is Loic Remy back in the team
:49:16. > :49:20.with a Golden Goal. They're fast at St James' Park in over seven and a
:49:21. > :49:27.half hours of football. Relief all around St James' Park. His 12th
:49:28. > :49:35.Premier league goal of the season to surely and this horrific run for
:49:36. > :49:43.Alan Pardew 's side. They needed a special moment. He has finally got
:49:44. > :49:49.it. How good was that in the 92nd minute? It was special. Not just for
:49:50. > :49:58.the three points but the lack of a goal was hanging over us. We have
:49:59. > :50:02.missed to open chances and had a penalty declined. We had one good
:50:03. > :50:08.chance and it felt the best player on the pitch. The composure was
:50:09. > :50:12.something special. But, it was the commitment of the players that got
:50:13. > :50:19.us into that position and I am proud of them. I thought we deserved a
:50:20. > :50:25.draw. I thought we dominated the first half and Newcastle came back
:50:26. > :50:30.in the half. We are very relieved tonight. I think the last few games
:50:31. > :50:39.have been difficult for us. We have lost some important players. We have
:50:40. > :50:47.got so many injured as well. It was important to win today for the
:50:48. > :50:56.confidence. It was important to win. Are you in the relegation battle? We
:50:57. > :51:04.went through it last year. To play like we did, we did not deserve to
:51:05. > :51:11.lose. Alan Pardew said Loic Remy is going to be hot property. You are
:51:12. > :51:17.impressed with how he adapted his game. He had to adapt at times.
:51:18. > :51:22.Wherever he went, he had Ron Vlaar with him. What you want from Loic
:51:23. > :51:28.Remy, he is at his best when he is trying to get in behind the defence.
:51:29. > :51:33.Ron Vlaar was with him. A good challenge. He takes the ball of Loic
:51:34. > :51:41.Remy. Again, a good turn from him. He turned inside. That was happening
:51:42. > :51:49.time and again. Ron Vlaar was very close. He was stopping any sort of
:51:50. > :51:56.the men them from Loic Remy. This is where you would want someone like
:51:57. > :52:00.Yohan Cabaye, trying to go the other side of the defence. That is not
:52:01. > :52:06.what he wants to do that he was trying to make things happen for the
:52:07. > :52:13.team and have an impact on the game. And lose from Ron Vlaar. He does not
:52:14. > :52:18.make any run or intention to try to get into the box. This is where you
:52:19. > :52:27.want to see your striker. This was his big moment, Ron Vlaar. This big
:52:28. > :52:32.mistake almost cost his team a goal. It was from deep. He was coming in
:52:33. > :52:35.from a deep line. This was a big mistake almost cost his team a goal.
:52:36. > :52:38.It was from deep. He was coming in from a deep line. This was every
:52:39. > :52:42.steak from Ron Vlaar. Loic Remy has turned him and got onto his left
:52:43. > :52:49.foot. It was a bad mistake and a good finish. If anyone was going to
:52:50. > :52:54.school, it was Loic Remy. What do you think the perception is of
:52:55. > :53:00.Newcastle 's season? Simon Green was very up and down. Alan Pardew has
:53:01. > :53:07.talked about comparisons with Everton. We are seen as not having a
:53:08. > :53:12.very good season. There are five points between them. Newcastle win
:53:13. > :53:17.three out of four and then they lose three out of four. Constantly, they
:53:18. > :53:21.are up and down. They have lost 11 games this year and Everton have
:53:22. > :53:31.only lost five with a knock more draws. It is that consistency. -- a
:53:32. > :53:36.lot more draws. The longer the game was going on, Loic Remy had a big
:53:37. > :53:41.influence on the game. You do not know how Newcastle will be. They
:53:42. > :53:45.could be brilliant they could get battered. With Everton, you know how
:53:46. > :53:50.they will play and they will be in pretty much the games they play. Our
:53:51. > :54:02.Aston Villa in the relegation battle? I think everyone in the
:54:03. > :54:06.bottom half of the table are many relegation at all. By half-time,
:54:07. > :54:12.they should have been in front and could have been in front. Paul
:54:13. > :54:16.Lambert will be disappointed to have come away without getting anything
:54:17. > :54:22.from the game. They are better at home than they are at Villa Park.
:54:23. > :54:26.They are starting to stumble away from home. It is the counter
:54:27. > :54:31.attacking system that they lack. They probably need Christian Benteke
:54:32. > :54:35.to go out on the run like he did towards the back end of the season.
:54:36. > :54:47.They need him to start scoring goals and get a few from Gabriel
:54:48. > :54:57.Agbonlahor. Sky there are a few poor teams at the bottom of the table so
:54:58. > :54:59.I think they will be fine. Here are all yesterday 's games involving all
:55:00. > :55:20.the sides battling near the bottom. A useful ball into the path of
:55:21. > :55:32.Richardson. Three in the centre. 1-0 Fulham. He won a Bundesliga title
:55:33. > :55:41.and he scores the first full goal under his stewardship to give the
:55:42. > :55:51.visitors the lead. -- Fulham goal. Has it gone over? Mike Dean looks to
:55:52. > :55:55.his assistant and says, yes. West Bromwich Albion finally have the
:55:56. > :56:01.breakthrough. Pepe Mel 's team have done it again. Four home games
:56:02. > :56:15.running. They were trailing 1-0 and they have pulled it back to 1-1.
:56:16. > :56:25.Nikica Jelavic, excellent. A wonder. In the end to keep it at 0-0. Well
:56:26. > :56:31.played, David Marshall. Hull City do indeed take the lead. There is a
:56:32. > :56:36.real deflection off Taylor as Huddleston hits it. It sends it away
:56:37. > :56:41.from the despairing Marshall, along with an opportunity, looking for
:56:42. > :56:49.support. He frowned Nikica Jelavic. That was absolutely to refix --
:56:50. > :56:56.terrific from the new strike partnership.
:56:57. > :57:00.That is game over, surely. Three golds, two of them for Nikica
:57:01. > :57:20.Jelavic. Livermore, 4-0 Hull City. That slide
:57:21. > :57:23.rule pass into the corner of the net makes Hull City 's afternoon that
:57:24. > :57:38.bit more pleasurable. Penalty! Patrice Evra, brought down
:57:39. > :57:43.right on the edge of the penalty area. Manchester United have the
:57:44. > :57:48.opportunity to take the lead. Robin van Persie will take it. 1-0. No
:57:49. > :57:59.doubt about the execution from the Dutchman. The goalkeeper was beaten
:58:00. > :58:02.instantaneously. A great finish by Wayne Rooney. A tremendous finish!
:58:03. > :58:16.Nothing the goalkeeper could do. Steven Davis with this free kick.
:58:17. > :58:24.Plenty forward for Southampton. There is the goal, a beautiful
:58:25. > :58:29.header. West Ham 's line of clean sheets is quickly ended. It was a
:58:30. > :58:35.glancing header from the Japanese. We have not seen much of Kevin Nolan
:58:36. > :58:42.from West Ham. The flag stays down. Jarvis equalises. His first Premier
:58:43. > :58:47.league goal since last April. West Ham are level. Kevin Nolan in his
:58:48. > :58:57.usual position, back to goal inside the six yard box. West Ham are in
:58:58. > :59:03.front. It is Carlton Cole, the man in for the suspended Andy Carroll.
:59:04. > :59:13.Southampton trailing with 20 minutes to go. West Ham are pushing for a
:59:14. > :59:18.third goal. 3-1 West Ham! How many goals does he score from inside the
:59:19. > :59:24.six shard box? West Ham are on course for the fourth consecutive
:59:25. > :59:29.Premier league victory. -- six yard box.
:59:30. > :59:39.All the teams that have changed. Fulham have changed manager tries.
:59:40. > :59:44.Cardiff, Sunderland, West Brom, Palace. They have all change manager
:59:45. > :59:53.full stop their form has been better but they are all in massive
:59:54. > :59:56.relegation trouble. This shows that Sunderland and Crystal Palace have
:59:57. > :00:05.had big improvements since changing manager. West Brom and Cardiff have
:00:06. > :00:09.got worse. Does it illustrate for you that with managerial changes,
:00:10. > :00:12.the two sides that have improved brought to managers with experience
:00:13. > :00:18.of the British game, you would know their players?
:00:19. > :00:26.You Christian -- Crystal Palace made a brilliant appointment. Gus Poyet
:00:27. > :00:33.has got experience. It is always going to be a gamble. Bringing in
:00:34. > :00:41.these managers. For those clubs, the fans are desperate to stay up but it
:00:42. > :00:44.is a big gamble. It is not British against foreign, it is about saying
:00:45. > :00:54.gusts by eight will have seen Sunderland. -- Gus Poyet. And
:00:55. > :01:02.knowing the players, they win you games and make the difference. Steve
:01:03. > :01:09.Bruce made two fantastic signings. They will score goals. Because of
:01:10. > :01:12.that, they will be safe. You always knew that once he got his players
:01:13. > :01:21.back that he talked about, they would be all right. He is a guy that
:01:22. > :01:26.keeps you in the Premier League. If he was a free agent, you would have
:01:27. > :01:34.him in. We always thought some a la dice would turn it round at West Ham
:01:35. > :01:40.and he has done that. -- Sam Allardyce. He has got Bolton and
:01:41. > :01:44.Blackburn out of trouble so he is an experienced manager. The rest of
:01:45. > :01:55.yesterday 's action and those at the bottom of the table.
:01:56. > :02:08.Osmond. Naismith, tremendous shot and a fine save. A rising drive from
:02:09. > :02:20.Osman. At a cheque was able to put it behind for a corner. -- Petr
:02:21. > :02:26.Cech. Ramires, still going. He just left his leg out. Not quite now or
:02:27. > :02:33.never, but not far off for Chelsea and Frank Lampard will take it. It
:02:34. > :02:39.is a goal, and Chelsea have won it. John Terry in the third minute of
:02:40. > :02:50.added time. Chelsea are set to say -- to stay top of the Premier

:03:26. > :03:34.was finished expertly. An absolute gift. A nightmare moment for

:03:57. > :04:00.the freedom of the penalty area to attack that, his first goal of the
:04:01. > :04:08.season. Arsenal four, Sunderland zero. Well delivered, just a little
:04:09. > :04:13.too close. How on Earth did he manage to find a gap? It is Arsenal
:04:14. > :04:27.four, Sunderland one. Effort from range. Staunch the
:04:28. > :04:43.keeper. No one was there for the follow-up. -- stunned. And there has
:04:44. > :04:58.been a substitution. Samia nursery. -- Samir Nasri. Torre, the deadlock

:05:10. > :05:19.Adam was gobbled up by Toure. What a mess! He has kicked the post in
:05:20. > :05:24.anger. What a glaring opportunity. If he made the sort of impact he did
:05:25. > :05:30.on the post on the ball, it might have been two goals!
:05:31. > :05:38.How important was it for Manchester City to eventually get that goal

:05:43. > :05:47.early and go ahead, it puts big pressure on other teams to win.
:05:48. > :05:50.There are games on Sundays and Mondays and teams have to play
:05:51. > :05:56.catch-up. It is a different type of pressure. If a team around you
:05:57. > :06:02.loses, it puts pressure on you to win so it is a big time of the
:06:03. > :06:06.season. Arsenal did not have the pressure because they got off to a
:06:07. > :06:12.great start. They played well, passed well, created a great goal.
:06:13. > :06:20.It is so tight at the top with a four points difference. Arsenal need
:06:21. > :06:24.those goals against the big teams. They have struggled and that has
:06:25. > :06:27.been their problem. For me, Chelsea and Manchester City are the
:06:28. > :06:34.favourites. Because of their defence? No, because they have the
:06:35. > :06:37.best players! This is the Premier League table. Liverpool have closed
:06:38. > :06:50.the gap. The Champions League continues this
:06:51. > :06:56.week. Games involving Manchester United and Chelsea. These are two

:07:54. > :08:00.That is it from us, thank you to Kevin and Danny. At the end of this
