Two crucial games, two expert pundits, | :00:50. | :00:55. | |
and all of Saturday's action to come over the next hour. | :00:56. | :00:58. | |
Alan Shearer and Trevor Sinclair watched the day unfold - | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
First stop Anfield, as two heavyweights met - | :01:02. | :01:08. | |
or teams sixth and ninth in the league, depending | :01:09. | :01:10. | |
on your viewpoint, and over the years, they've | :01:11. | :01:12. | |
Separated and divided by managerial philosophy. Louis van Gaal wants to | :01:13. | :02:02. | |
win at all costs. If United are unsuccessful here, it will be just | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
one victory in nine. Their worst run in 27 seasons and a step nearer the | :02:08. | :02:15. | |
exit door for the Dutchman. Lucas replaces Ibe to make some -- add | :02:16. | :02:21. | |
some steel to the midfield. United have won three from three under Van | :02:22. | :02:27. | |
Gaal. All changed after the draw at Newcastle that left their manager | :02:28. | :02:29. | |
frustrated over lost opportunities. Anderson wins that. A lovely through | :02:30. | :02:52. | |
ball. David de Gea manages the saver from Adam Lallana. Smalling was | :02:53. | :03:00. | |
back, guarding the goal. David de Gea seems to be caught in no man's | :03:01. | :03:06. | |
land. The first big chance. Laulala was there. But the follow-up was | :03:07. | :03:09. | |
wide. It is a cold day. Why top atmosphere. | :03:10. | :03:25. | |
-- a white hot atmosphere. A good cross the room. Opening things up to | :03:26. | :03:31. | |
Milner. Short on the run. No alternative, really. It with power. | :03:32. | :03:44. | |
All was going wide. Eddie Jones among the Manchester United fans. I | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
am sure some of the other players are in there as well. The Liverpool | :03:49. | :04:01. | |
fans baying for a free kick. Lucas, unhappy with the Laney. -- Fellaini. | :04:02. | :04:13. | |
We heard about it from the Liverpool fans on that far side before we saw | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
it clearly. A flash point, less than a quarter of an hour in. With a game | :04:18. | :04:22. | |
like this, the players have a responsibility. Always passionate, | :04:23. | :04:27. | |
of course. You have to be on the edge for a game like this. There is | :04:28. | :04:36. | |
a line of which they must not cross. Eminently sensible refereeing. Calm | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
down, that is what he is saying, leave the decisions to me. And here | :04:41. | :04:49. | |
is Lallana, bringing in Nathaniel Clyne. Adventurous, the combination | :04:50. | :04:56. | |
of United players get it away. Schneiderlin was hurt by his | :04:57. | :05:00. | |
team-mate. Lucas, Henderson, and a to Adam Lallana. Anderson! A good | :05:01. | :05:07. | |
chance. Was he going for goal or was he trying to cross it in? | :05:08. | :05:13. | |
High-energy. Good football by Liverpool. Well played. Manchester | :05:14. | :05:19. | |
United, they look very much as if they came here for a point. Can they | :05:20. | :05:27. | |
get a chance? Here is Anthony Martial, all the way to the box. | :05:28. | :05:36. | |
Well played. That is about as promising as they have been in this | :05:37. | :05:40. | |
first half. Yet to have a shot on target. Lucas, Moreno, handball. He | :05:41. | :06:00. | |
has been peripheral today, operating in advance of Schneiderlin and the | :06:01. | :06:10. | |
Laney. -- Marouane Fellaini. Rather fortunate with his feet. He does | :06:11. | :06:16. | |
have a tendency to make saves on his feet. Some of his stops are | :06:17. | :06:20. | |
unorthodox and that one certainly was. He got lucky. That is the | :06:21. | :06:35. | |
closest we've come to a goal. Rooney is in the middle. Liverpool are | :06:36. | :06:45. | |
hesitant. He steers it wide. That is the cause is that Manchester United | :06:46. | :06:50. | |
have been. Liverpool standing like statues. He went up through the | :06:51. | :06:57. | |
paces. Rocco are among the Manchester fans. Refreshing. | :06:58. | :07:09. | |
A high line by the Liverpool defence. Expecting a ball into | :07:10. | :07:19. | |
Marouane Fellaini. Towards Anthony Martial. He went down on the edge of | :07:20. | :07:27. | |
the box and so did Herrera. Adam Lallana, possible Liverpool break. | :07:28. | :07:36. | |
Switched intelligently. A better second half. What a good ball. | :07:37. | :07:43. | |
Still, the players are too frantic, caught up by the occasion. | :07:44. | :07:49. | |
Manchester United, thinking that was a penalty. His foot went on to the | :07:50. | :07:54. | |
Liverpool player, Sakho, and likewise. The referee was right. | :07:55. | :08:06. | |
Moreno has won the personal battle with Lingard. A decent ball as well. | :08:07. | :08:14. | |
Except Henderson. Straight at the goalkeeper. Probably Liverpool's | :08:15. | :08:26. | |
best chance. Arriving in space with time to pick a spot. On comes Juan | :08:27. | :08:35. | |
Mata. Frantic so far. He is cultured and he has had a hand in seven | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
goals, scoring or creating, in his last six league games against | :08:41. | :08:46. | |
Liverpool. Daley Blind has treated well for Manchester. The best moment | :08:47. | :08:55. | |
of the game. A great double save, although the second one was a bit | :08:56. | :09:00. | |
weird. Liverpool, 15 efforts they have had, six on targets, this is | :09:01. | :09:04. | |
the best of them. The goalkeeper reacting well with a good save. | :09:05. | :09:17. | |
Schneiderlin, Anthony Martial. That was a bold run. Yaya Toure | :09:18. | :09:24. | |
complaining that his midfielders did not get back. The fans behind | :09:25. | :09:33. | |
Mignolet's goal. Looking for the Laney! Rooney! Manchester United are | :09:34. | :09:41. | |
ahead. -- looking for Fellaini. His first goal here since January of | :09:42. | :09:48. | |
2005. The long wait for Rooney back in his home City is over. And at | :09:49. | :09:54. | |
Liverpool, having dominated the ball for so long, having corrected more | :09:55. | :10:00. | |
chances, they are behind. A quality cross. Fellaini, off the bar, eight | :10:01. | :10:09. | |
cracking finish. Absolutely belted it in. Look what it means. Yet | :10:10. | :10:17. | |
again, a ball from a wide position into the heart of the Liverpool | :10:18. | :10:21. | |
defence, has caused them problems. But they could not deal with that. | :10:22. | :10:35. | |
There is Emma Chan. -- Emre Can. Surely that is offside? The keeper | :10:36. | :10:41. | |
was allowed to claim that the flag stayed down. He was onside. But he | :10:42. | :10:51. | |
was unawares. That was a big chance for Liverpool. And this has been an | :10:52. | :11:04. | |
important Manchester United victory. Wayne Rooney as exercised some of | :11:05. | :11:10. | |
his Anfield demons with a winning goal. Pressure at least an Van Gaal. | :11:11. | :11:16. | |
An excellent clean sheet for him. Liverpool created chances but did | :11:17. | :11:21. | |
not take them. Manchester United created one on targets and to get. | :11:22. | :11:27. | |
1-0. Rooney's Manchester United. In the first half, we have survived. We | :11:28. | :11:38. | |
don't keep the ball too much, because they gave a lot of pressure. | :11:39. | :11:43. | |
In the second half, we created chances and we scored the winning | :11:44. | :11:48. | |
goal, so I am very happy and the players are very happy. And the fans | :11:49. | :11:52. | |
are more happy than that. It was great to score. Obviously against | :11:53. | :11:59. | |
Liverpool, for this football club it is a massive result to get three | :12:00. | :12:06. | |
points. On a personal level, it went much better. You did not take your | :12:07. | :12:09. | |
chances but they too players. Is that how you see it? I did not see | :12:10. | :12:15. | |
too many chances from Manchester United. But that's right, we lost | :12:16. | :12:20. | |
the game, and we should not have lost. The goal was to defend and we | :12:21. | :12:27. | |
did not do that and so that is our responsibility. We have to change | :12:28. | :12:32. | |
it. We cannot sit here every three days and talk about excuses. I know | :12:33. | :12:37. | |
that some of the lads were in the crowds today and I'm sure they | :12:38. | :12:39. | |
probably enjoyed it more than us, being in the crowd. I'm sure we will | :12:40. | :12:45. | |
have a video and stories from them tomorrow. The space is big between | :12:46. | :12:50. | |
us and the top four now. If we want to go there, we have to win games | :12:51. | :12:56. | |
and that is the only way. If we start like that, we can talk about | :12:57. | :13:01. | |
that. We have made a good start in 2016. The beta Liverpool for the | :13:02. | :13:04. | |
second time in a row, it is marvellous. -- to beat Liverpool. We | :13:05. | :13:12. | |
urge you to win our games. We want to end the season within the top | :13:13. | :13:19. | |
three positions. Overall, two Liverpool and Manchester United | :13:20. | :13:22. | |
games this season that seem to have lacked any intensity. Do you agree? | :13:23. | :13:28. | |
Two giant football clubs, one big anticlimax. The standard of football | :13:29. | :13:34. | |
from both teams today was pure. -- poor. Both teams on million miles | :13:35. | :13:38. | |
away from where they once were and where they want to be. It will take | :13:39. | :13:41. | |
time. It definitely was not a classic. You can say that again! An | :13:42. | :13:47. | |
important three points, to keep Manchester in touch of the top four | :13:48. | :13:52. | |
and sometimes you have to win ugly, and they did that. You have to give | :13:53. | :13:55. | |
Van Gaal credit because like at Newcastle, he was not prepared to | :13:56. | :14:00. | |
settle for the draw, he went for the win with his substitutions, bringing | :14:01. | :14:04. | |
an Memphis Depay and Juan Mata. And he went two down the middle with | :14:05. | :14:08. | |
Anthony Martial and Rudy. And they got three big points. Something that | :14:09. | :14:12. | |
Jurgen Klopp said in that post match interview, about how he does not | :14:13. | :14:17. | |
want to stand up every three days and talk about how they deal | :14:18. | :14:21. | |
defensively with set pieces. Well, you better get back on the training | :14:22. | :14:24. | |
ground because Liverpool have an issue. They cannot handle crosses | :14:25. | :14:29. | |
into the box. There is no organisation among the defenders. It | :14:30. | :14:34. | |
cost them against Exeter and it cost them against Arsenal. Two goals from | :14:35. | :14:39. | |
corners. And it has cost them again today, unfortunately. It is simple. | :14:40. | :14:47. | |
Really. I thought that Manchester United identified the problem early | :14:48. | :14:51. | |
on. That ball really should go into the box and put the goalkeeper under | :14:52. | :14:55. | |
pressure. All the Manchester United players should attack the ball and I | :14:56. | :14:58. | |
thought Rooney would whip this in. I was surprised that he did not. And | :14:59. | :15:03. | |
outswinger from Daley Blind. Not one player attacks into the danger area. | :15:04. | :15:08. | |
It gets cleared and it was a poor ball. The second corner, they tried | :15:09. | :15:12. | |
to play to the edge of the box and I was thinking, why do they not put | :15:13. | :15:17. | |
the goalkeeper under pressure? Juan Mata comes on and he changed it, to | :15:18. | :15:22. | |
be fair. A decent ball in. Fellaini climbs above and Rooney smashes that | :15:23. | :15:28. | |
into the net. But man marking, Lucas and Rooney. The ball comes in, but | :15:29. | :15:34. | |
look at the four defenders around Marouane Fellaini. And he jumps | :15:35. | :15:38. | |
above every single one of them. It is a decent header, and it comes | :15:39. | :15:41. | |
back to Rooney, marked by Lucas but no longer. He smashes it into the | :15:42. | :15:46. | |
roof of the net with the only shot on target in the game. Three points, | :15:47. | :15:47. | |
thank you. They have had four shots on target | :15:48. | :15:57. | |
against Liverpool and scored all four. Liverpool have conceded from | :15:58. | :16:02. | |
corners, the game in September was under Rogers, the others under | :16:03. | :16:06. | |
Klopp. It has cost them points. You can see that, by the fact there | :16:07. | :16:10. | |
isn't W next to any of the scores. It has cost them loads of points and | :16:11. | :16:15. | |
it will continue, if players don't start concentrating and sticking | :16:16. | :16:18. | |
with their men. But you are right, they have dropped so many points, | :16:19. | :16:22. | |
because of that. If you take the positives for Liverpool, then Jurgen | :16:23. | :16:27. | |
Klopp said it in his post-match interview again, they had chances, | :16:28. | :16:31. | |
whereas Manchester United he was very keen to point out had a chance. | :16:32. | :16:36. | |
They will feel like they should have won that game or at least got | :16:37. | :16:40. | |
something out of it. They were the better team, had more imagination, | :16:41. | :16:44. | |
created situations, but the end products good enough. You can see | :16:45. | :16:50. | |
here hopeful ball forward, on the front foot, getting the second ball, | :16:51. | :16:55. | |
fantastic vision Firmino, good ball, Milner can't just take it a little | :16:56. | :16:59. | |
bit earlier and get the shot on target. Good linkup play, plenty of | :17:00. | :17:03. | |
bodies going forward for Liverpool. The wrong option. Did they look to | :17:04. | :17:07. | |
exploit that right-hand channel and Paul Darmian out of position? | :17:08. | :17:11. | |
Darmian was very narrow and there was a big space on that side and | :17:12. | :17:15. | |
Liverpool kept getting down there. Really good position there, | :17:16. | :17:18. | |
Henderson will be disappointed he didn't hit the target. Again, | :17:19. | :17:22. | |
execution. But this is positive stuff for Kop. He has seen his team | :17:23. | :17:27. | |
get the better of Manchester United, a great step over by Can there, a | :17:28. | :17:31. | |
fantastic save by De Gea, world class. It shows how important De Gea | :17:32. | :17:36. | |
is to that Manchester United side. It's way too easy getting through, | :17:37. | :17:40. | |
fantastic big and gets up for the reaction save which is like a | :17:41. | :17:46. | |
basketball palm away. Good feet. He won Man of the Match, De Gea. He | :17:47. | :17:51. | |
definitely deserved it. Again, Liverpool asking all the questions, | :17:52. | :17:55. | |
Manchester United wide-open. A fantastic pull-backs, a little bit | :17:56. | :17:58. | |
of confusion there. Why doesn't he just finished that first-time? He | :17:59. | :18:03. | |
thinks he is offside. Firmino in a great position, he feels he's on top | :18:04. | :18:06. | |
of the goalkeeper, he thinks is the use offside. If he knows he is | :18:07. | :18:10. | |
on-site... You should never think, just do it, put it in the back of | :18:11. | :18:18. | |
the net and worry about it when the assistant sticks the flag up. 19 | :18:19. | :18:21. | |
shots they had, four on target, that equation itself is not good enough | :18:22. | :18:24. | |
in the final third. If they are getting in that many positions they | :18:25. | :18:27. | |
should be hitting the target and working De Gea more. I will give you | :18:28. | :18:31. | |
start to maybe show the wasn't particularly high-quality, both | :18:32. | :18:35. | |
sides in their passing accuracy, way down on what it will be during a | :18:36. | :18:40. | |
normal season. Manchester United 12% down, Liverpool 6% down. You sat in | :18:41. | :18:45. | |
the office, Alan, like Father Jack in Father Ted and your chair, | :18:46. | :18:49. | |
moaning all the way through this. Liverpool were the better team. I | :18:50. | :18:53. | |
know they are better than what they are showing here, but some of these | :18:54. | :18:56. | |
passes, and it happened for both teams during the whole game, simple | :18:57. | :19:01. | |
passes should be doing better, Can thinks he has time on the ball, | :19:02. | :19:07. | |
which he didn't, and it was straight path -- straight path after stray | :19:08. | :19:11. | |
pass, this time it was Fellaini's turn. It was an incredible poor | :19:12. | :19:17. | |
standard of football. Very poor, Van Gaal said in his post-match | :19:18. | :19:20. | |
interview it was because Liverpool pressed so hard. There was hardly an | :19:21. | :19:24. | |
pressure on a lot of those balls where they were giving it away, | :19:25. | :19:26. | |
looking for hopeful passes instead of manipulating the play and playing | :19:27. | :19:32. | |
a safe path. A big result for Van Gaal? Massive, three huge points. | :19:33. | :19:43. | |
When these two teams last met, it was a miserable September | :19:44. | :19:49. | |
afternoon for the travelling Stoke side - a 2-0 defeat meant no wins | :19:50. | :19:52. | |
in three and a place at the bottom of the league for Mark Hughes's men. | :19:53. | :19:55. | |
However, since then there has been a change of fortune | :19:56. | :19:58. | |
at the Staffordshire club - only losing two of their next 11 | :19:59. | :20:01. | |
games, boosting them into the top half of the table. | :20:02. | :20:03. | |
So with Europe looking increasingly like a possibility - | :20:04. | :20:05. | |
can they hold on, or will Wenger's on-from Arsenal spoil the party? | :20:06. | :20:08. | |
Arsenal's problems in the potteries are well-known. Without a win in | :20:09. | :20:19. | |
their last five games at Stoke this will be a big test of their title | :20:20. | :20:23. | |
winning credentials. A draw would take them to the back of the top -- | :20:24. | :20:28. | |
back to the top of the table. Stoke have been winning, six of their last | :20:29. | :20:32. | |
ten Premier League matches. The team is the one that started in the | :20:33. | :20:36. | |
victory over Norwich. Shaqiri isn't fit to return, but the attacking | :20:37. | :20:42. | |
quartet that does play, Walters, Bojan, Arnautovic and Joselu are in | :20:43. | :20:46. | |
form. A minor foot injury to Ozil means there is one change from the | :20:47. | :20:51. | |
Gunners' thrilling midweek draw at Liverpool. Incomes Alex | :20:52. | :20:54. | |
Oxlade-Chamberlain, against the club his dad Mark James Lynn came to | :20:55. | :20:57. | |
prominence with, winning eight England caps in the early 1980s -- | :20:58. | :21:04. | |
Chamberlain. He is unbeaten as a Premier League manager, Hughes, | :21:05. | :21:15. | |
against Arsenal, winning five and drawing two. Walters in the | :21:16. | :21:21. | |
Arnautovic, neatly turned to Ebrahim. Afellay. Cech dives and | :21:22. | :21:31. | |
clause dinner. How far away was it? -- he claws that the spin out. He | :21:32. | :21:36. | |
shifted it nicely into the space, from which he could shoot | :21:37. | :21:39. | |
unchallenged, and it's always drifting away and Petr Cech knew | :21:40. | :21:40. | |
that. Oxlade-Chamberlain, Alta Bellerin. | :21:41. | :21:47. | |
-- out to Bellerin. Joel Campbell has got it through the | :21:48. | :22:10. | |
Giroud. Met by Butland. Off his line, quick as a flash, and he | :22:11. | :22:13. | |
thwarts Arsenal after what has been their best move of the game. Lovely | :22:14. | :22:19. | |
passing, especially that one, from Campbell to Giroud. Watching it all | :22:20. | :22:23. | |
like a hawk was Jack Butland. Straightaway he was there to close | :22:24. | :22:27. | |
down the Arsenal striker. Oxlade-Chamberlain drifted away from | :22:28. | :22:34. | |
Bojan nicely. Oxlade-Chamberlain. Good try, met with an equally good | :22:35. | :22:39. | |
save. Makes Oxlade-Chamberlain's 13 Arsenal goals have all been scored | :22:40. | :22:46. | |
at the Emirates, bar one. That came in the Community Shield against | :22:47. | :22:51. | |
Chelsea, at the start of this season, so he has yet to net away | :22:52. | :22:58. | |
from home. That was a decent shot. Well saved by Butland. Brownsea has | :22:59. | :23:02. | |
the corner. Oxlade-Chamberlain has another go and it was deflected wide | :23:03. | :23:09. | |
by Koscielny. It was hit so hard towards him there was nothing he | :23:10. | :23:12. | |
could do to get out of the way. It is on target from | :23:13. | :23:15. | |
Oxlade-Chamberlain. He tries does Koscielny but it happened too fast | :23:16. | :23:28. | |
for him. A second longest serving manager in a Premier League, and the | :23:29. | :23:32. | |
man at the top of pop the pile, Arsene Wenger, in his 20th season. | :23:33. | :23:40. | |
He wanted to make sure as Joselu closed him down, great energy being | :23:41. | :23:48. | |
displayed by everybody in a red and white striped shirt, as there | :23:49. | :23:52. | |
usually is. Here is Bojan, trying to curl it. Didn't manage to. Cech | :23:53. | :23:57. | |
perhaps holding his hands up just to acknowledge but he didn't seem quite | :23:58. | :24:01. | |
so sure on the ball, and Mertesacker was having to back away. He will | :24:02. | :24:04. | |
think you might have done better with a final shot. I don't think | :24:05. | :24:11. | |
there's any doubt that Arsenal have missed what Mesut Ozil brings to | :24:12. | :24:19. | |
their play so far today. Giroud can't turn it into Ramsey's path. | :24:20. | :24:27. | |
That was Pieters, striking straight against Oxlade-Chamberlain, he | :24:28. | :24:32. | |
charges down Pieters. Pieters things unnecessarily so. Absolutely | :24:33. | :24:38. | |
necessary, from an Arsenal point of view because Oxlade-Chamberlain | :24:39. | :24:40. | |
managed to force a corner with that run. | :24:41. | :24:45. | |
Ramsey in, a free header, a great save by Butland. That's twice he's | :24:46. | :25:05. | |
kept out Olivier Giroud. The Stoke question will be how on earth did | :25:06. | :25:09. | |
Arsenal's leading scorer find himself so free in their penalty | :25:10. | :25:15. | |
area? Arsenal's new signing, named among their substitutes today, | :25:16. | :25:22. | |
Mohamed Elneny. The first half had precious little in terms of | :25:23. | :25:25. | |
incident. Now we have got plenty. Incident and more energy. | :25:26. | :25:39. | |
Giroud has peeled away to the left. It's Walcott who goes through the | :25:40. | :25:48. | |
middle, Walcott, was he held onto? He is aghast that he hasn't got a | :25:49. | :25:52. | |
penalty. Just a cursory shake off the head from Craig Pawson. If not a | :25:53. | :25:58. | |
penalty, then maybe a free kick. Walcott's arm is being pulled back | :25:59. | :26:00. | |
by Wollscheid. Oxlade-Chamberlain. Oxlade-Chamberlain waiting for | :26:01. | :26:16. | |
Flamini, in came Greg Whelan. He digs out his team-mate. Monreal is | :26:17. | :26:21. | |
down, as though unfairly blocked. He is going to stay down Stoke get on | :26:22. | :26:25. | |
with it. Afellay bounced off the ball by Giroud. Here is Campbell, | :26:26. | :26:31. | |
Monreal has bounced back to his feet. He is not in his left-back | :26:32. | :26:36. | |
spot though. Arnautovic goes in the middle to Joselu, good strong hands | :26:37. | :26:39. | |
from Cech and he's there to keep out Bojan as well. Nicely weighted by | :26:40. | :26:48. | |
Arnautovic. Well struck by Joselu. Cech says Arsenal twice. -- saves | :26:49. | :26:57. | |
Arsenal twice. Stoke are getting it right for their manager, not just | :26:58. | :27:00. | |
today, but ever since he started the job that he was brought to the | :27:01. | :27:02. | |
Britannia Stadium to do. The ball was gifted to Stoke. | :27:03. | :27:16. | |
Arnautovic in the centre. Bishop was deflected on saved by Petr Cech. -- | :27:17. | :27:23. | |
the shot was deflected. Nicely taken on by Joselu. There was a little | :27:24. | :27:29. | |
touch off Koscielny which might have made the save from Cech better than | :27:30. | :27:36. | |
it first appeared. Koscielny get his bearings back, to loop the ball up. | :27:37. | :27:42. | |
Up goes Giroud. There is Walcott, a nice touch from Theo Walcott, and | :27:43. | :27:51. | |
another. He will go first time in towards Oxlade-Chamberlain, but | :27:52. | :27:57. | |
unsuccessfully. There are Stoke shouts of hand ball here, as Joel | :27:58. | :28:01. | |
Campbell went up with Koscielny. I think sometimes the constant | :28:02. | :28:05. | |
appealing for hand ball is what is muddying the waters. Because there | :28:06. | :28:10. | |
is nothing at all that he can do about that touching a part of his | :28:11. | :28:14. | |
arm. There is nothing deliberate about it whatsoever. It will be very | :28:15. | :28:18. | |
neatly taken, Oxlade-Chamberlain and Campbell in room to the right. | :28:19. | :28:24. | |
Campbell went for goal, he had Bellerin running strongly behind | :28:25. | :28:31. | |
him. Time running out. It's the sort of promising opportunity which is | :28:32. | :28:33. | |
going to end with something positive. Campbell, as soon as he | :28:34. | :28:38. | |
got that, wasn't going to look for a team-mate. | :28:39. | :28:47. | |
It has gone through the ad. -- Adam. Adam's blast against the knees of | :28:48. | :28:57. | |
Mertesacker, but well recovered, Charlie Adam. It a punch instead. | :28:58. | :29:03. | |
Drilled back in by Whelan. It's going to be a corner. Charlie Adam | :29:04. | :29:10. | |
kept on going. Whelan ordered everybody out of his way to hit | :29:11. | :29:14. | |
that, and it's Koscielny who made sure it didn't trouble Petr Cech. In | :29:15. | :29:22. | |
comes the corner, flicked towards goal and off the line by Ramsey, and | :29:23. | :29:28. | |
cleared again. Stoke came mightily close. Ramsey in the right place to | :29:29. | :29:36. | |
head the ball away, it was Cech with the second block. What a flick on | :29:37. | :29:43. | |
that was additive -- it was going in but for Ramsey's excellent | :29:44. | :29:47. | |
positioning. We approached the game in the right manner, made chances, | :29:48. | :29:50. | |
both keepers made good saves at key times and all in all we are pleased, | :29:51. | :29:56. | |
obviously it shows our progress. We have run up against elite teams, | :29:57. | :30:03. | |
Arsenal have been one of them, the likes of Chelsea, Man United, Man | :30:04. | :30:06. | |
City, and they get -- it is difficult for them to get points | :30:07. | :30:11. | |
against us. We need to be strong physically, have a great spirit, and | :30:12. | :30:15. | |
we did that very well. They fought hard for 90 minutes and we couldn't | :30:16. | :30:19. | |
take our chances and in the end it's very hard-fought 0-0, where we come | :30:20. | :30:23. | |
out, having done better many years before. We have shown again that we | :30:24. | :30:29. | |
can fight, even though we miss many players, we can fight together to | :30:30. | :30:33. | |
get the result. Was it a typical Stoke Arsenal contest? We've been | :30:34. | :30:38. | |
yes, I think so, we have had up a good fight especially a the | :30:39. | :30:41. | |
Britannia. We knew it would be a tough day, they are top of the | :30:42. | :30:45. | |
league for a reason. They have quality players. We are pretty | :30:46. | :30:49. | |
pleased. I was beat my contribution and overall game. I have to say we | :30:50. | :30:54. | |
fought really hard for this point -- I was pleased. I think we showed | :30:55. | :31:02. | |
everybody we can compete and we are ready to compete. | :31:03. | :31:08. | |
A field players sit in those chairs and choose to talk about | :31:09. | :31:14. | |
goalkeepers, they have them and the goalkeepers union get annoyed, but | :31:15. | :31:17. | |
tonight you're going to praise them? We don't like to but we will, | :31:18. | :31:23. | |
through gritted teeth, because there were two great performances. One | :31:24. | :31:29. | |
from Butland, so quick and sharp. -- Butland. It was a fantastic save. | :31:30. | :31:36. | |
And this one, from a corner, a free header, parries away the shot from | :31:37. | :31:43. | |
Olivier Giroud. That was a superb save. And Petr Cech, we have got | :31:44. | :31:51. | |
used to this, great feet. Jocelyn steps inside. And the reaction | :31:52. | :32:00. | |
impressed me so much. -- Joselu. But himself and the angle and says, you | :32:01. | :32:04. | |
are not getting this in the goal. Again, here, with Stoke on the | :32:05. | :32:08. | |
attack, the shot on target, and we saw this midweek, he parried it | :32:09. | :32:13. | |
straight out, and he would not do that twice on the spin. Johnson was | :32:14. | :32:17. | |
waiting, and it was not be. Sometimes you cannot make it with | :32:18. | :32:21. | |
your hands. This was just a great reaction. Going the wrong way, good | :32:22. | :32:27. | |
agility, clears his lines. Two fantastic performances from great | :32:28. | :32:29. | |
keepers at different places their careers. I want to give you some | :32:30. | :32:35. | |
stats. Petr Cech, ten clean sheets this season, the most in the Premier | :32:36. | :32:40. | |
League alongside Joe Hart. 81 saves from Jack Butland, the most in the | :32:41. | :32:46. | |
Premier League. A different ends of the age spectrum but you have | :32:47. | :32:50. | |
praised David de Gea, and Jack Butland, look at Joe Hart even, all | :32:51. | :32:53. | |
in their 20s, and yet common wisdom has always been the goalkeeping, | :32:54. | :32:59. | |
goalkeepers need to be mature. It has always been widely accepted that | :33:00. | :33:02. | |
they did not reach their prime until they got into their 30s. We are | :33:03. | :33:06. | |
seeing a new generation now, partly because of the fact that the game | :33:07. | :33:10. | |
has changed, and they have to be footballers. They have to be on the | :33:11. | :33:14. | |
edge of the box prepared to play, to pass it out with their feet, so you | :33:15. | :33:19. | |
are right, we have seen some very, very good youngsters. Even in | :33:20. | :33:23. | |
academies now, cultures look at a player and if he is not athletically | :33:24. | :33:27. | |
good enough, and he will never be, as an outfield player, because they | :33:28. | :33:30. | |
have good feet, they will put him in there. They're like sweepers in | :33:31. | :33:36. | |
today's game, they recycled the ball, they go the other way. But | :33:37. | :33:41. | |
also, before our time, there was a little bit of contact and that was | :33:42. | :33:45. | |
why keepers needed to be away. You are older than me, are due? Before | :33:46. | :33:51. | |
his time? Did you watch him?! He did make contact with some goalkeepers, | :33:52. | :33:57. | |
you know. Now you can't do that. I used to give as good as I got. Of | :33:58. | :34:04. | |
course she did. But Jan, Arnautovic, Shaqiri, they have all received | :34:05. | :34:12. | |
praise. But you are going to pick an unsung hero? -- Bojan. I think he is | :34:13. | :34:22. | |
such an important part of this team, and Glenn Whelan, he is so selfless | :34:23. | :34:25. | |
with what he does in this team. He stays in front of the back two, he | :34:26. | :34:32. | |
clears everything up, and his awareness is unbelievable. Is that | :34:33. | :34:34. | |
what has improved since you were with them? Absolutely. Look at this | :34:35. | :34:40. | |
hole that develops. He sees it and he fills the gap, makes a contact. | :34:41. | :34:46. | |
Something simple, organising. That is why there is not a big hole in | :34:47. | :34:50. | |
the middle of the defence. The free kicks, years on his toes, nice and | :34:51. | :34:54. | |
alert. Force is a mistake and then Stoke are on the attack. Good | :34:55. | :35:00. | |
passing. And here he realises he is under pressure and he keeps the ball | :35:01. | :35:05. | |
alive. And there is a chance created from that. He keeps the ball alive. | :35:06. | :35:12. | |
Great play and unlucky not to score. Again, when Johnson, a little flick. | :35:13. | :35:16. | |
Good rotation. Dictating play, keeping the ball, nice and safe and | :35:17. | :35:20. | |
reliable. He is not bothered about joining in, he has done his job. | :35:21. | :35:26. | |
Again, here, he shows his range. A nice, safe ball out to Glen Johnson. | :35:27. | :35:31. | |
A good touch. Again, how to Peters, a beautiful ball, nicely weighted. | :35:32. | :35:38. | |
Good defending from Monreal. He did this all day, breaking things down. | :35:39. | :35:43. | |
He does not want him turning, so the presses and squeezes, and gets the | :35:44. | :35:48. | |
touch. Listen, he does not score a lot of goals, Charlie Adam, he keeps | :35:49. | :35:54. | |
it alive here. Five in 245 games. This would have been the best. | :35:55. | :36:01. | |
Again, it is typical from them. Reliable, it's the target. A | :36:02. | :36:04. | |
fantastic performance. A lot of teams, you talk about Arsenal, | :36:05. | :36:08. | |
Coquelin, people keep giving him plaudits but this is the same type | :36:09. | :36:13. | |
of performance. This is why Chelsea, West Ham, Man United, they are | :36:14. | :36:16. | |
unable to score against them. That is a good point for Arsenal. When | :36:17. | :36:22. | |
you consider that Chelsea have been to Stoke City, and they have turned | :36:23. | :36:26. | |
them over, I think it shows a lot of character. Definitely. And it was | :36:27. | :36:31. | |
freezing. They could have gone missing, but they should adopt for | :36:32. | :36:38. | |
themselves. -- they stood up for themselves. Arsene Wenger said they | :36:39. | :36:41. | |
needed to be physical today but were they? There was not a yellow card in | :36:42. | :36:45. | |
the game. I think that was a bit disrespectful to Stoke City because | :36:46. | :36:49. | |
they gave as good as they got. They played as much good football as | :36:50. | :36:52. | |
Arsenal. I thought it was a very even game today. I thought the draw | :36:53. | :36:56. | |
was a fair result but it was a big point for Arsenal. In previous years | :36:57. | :37:01. | |
if you wanted to say that, you would have had difficulty but not this | :37:02. | :37:02. | |
season. 2 Good 2 Bad and a trip | :37:03. | :37:03. | |
to Bournemouth to come, after our first look | :37:04. | :37:06. | |
at Saturday's action - It's a goal! It is from a long, long | :37:07. | :37:30. | |
way out. He hits it hard, he takes it straight but it should have been | :37:31. | :37:33. | |
saved. It is a bolt from the Sky Blues and it is 1-0. David Silva | :37:34. | :37:45. | |
will try to get there with him. Aguero, hanging back. And it is in | :37:46. | :37:51. | |
for 2-0. It seemed as though there was a big deflection. Was it an own | :37:52. | :38:00. | |
goal? That can be deliberated later. In strongly, winning it. But fairly. | :38:01. | :38:11. | |
David Silva, Aguero... De Bruyne, Aguero. De Bruyne, he saw Aguero, | :38:12. | :38:19. | |
beautifully placed. That was simple for him. In from Jason Puncheon. | :38:20. | :38:32. | |
Good play by dimmer cellists. -- dimmer cellists. Aguero, David | :38:33. | :38:42. | |
Silva! It is another walk-in. A fourth Manchester City goal. He gets | :38:43. | :38:52. | |
into front the counterattack. He could have scored himself if he | :38:53. | :38:58. | |
wanted to but he very unselfishly set up David Silva. Manchester City | :38:59. | :39:11. | |
four, Crystal Palace 0. The new chairman this week, Steve Hollis, | :39:12. | :39:15. | |
local businessmen. And it is Leicester on the attack. Jamie | :39:16. | :39:22. | |
Vardy! It's given! Leicester have the lead. He could not keep it out | :39:23. | :39:26. | |
although he thought he had. So quick to react. Parried. No question. It | :39:27. | :39:39. | |
is a yard over. One goal from Leicester has left the weight of the | :39:40. | :39:43. | |
world on their shoulders. And there is Jamie Vardy. In the six yard | :39:44. | :39:51. | |
area! It's a penalty, I think. A penalty for handball. It was given | :39:52. | :39:58. | |
by the assistant on the far side, who signalled immediately. It has | :39:59. | :40:03. | |
all gone wrong for Aston Villa. Their stupid Leicester two up. And | :40:04. | :40:08. | |
it is saved. And that was a tepid penalty. Languid and wasteful. And | :40:09. | :40:23. | |
on things like that, games can turn. Gestede bundling his way through. | :40:24. | :40:28. | |
And scoring! And it is Leicester's turn to run to the referee. | :40:29. | :40:33. | |
Complaining to the referee that Rudy Gestede may have been offside. But | :40:34. | :40:38. | |
the substitution has paid off and they deserved equaliser. A hefty | :40:39. | :40:39. | |
slice. Sliding it through. Good play. | :40:40. | :40:57. | |
Sunderland have the lead through Patrick van Aanholt. He scores for | :40:58. | :41:05. | |
the third league game in a. Tom Dunn again with work to do. A match that | :41:06. | :41:10. | |
they really will feel they have to win. And here comes Harry Kane. A | :41:11. | :41:18. | |
good ball back. Eriksson with the shot and it is in. Cattermole could | :41:19. | :41:22. | |
not give it out. Tottenham respond instantly. -- Eriksen. A good | :41:23. | :41:31. | |
response from his team and they will be pleased about that. The ball | :41:32. | :41:37. | |
comes in, and it is O'Shea with the header. Pickford is there. Davis has | :41:38. | :41:44. | |
not cleared. Dembele for Tottenham. 2-1. Pickford at full stretch could | :41:45. | :41:58. | |
not reach it. Bottom corner. 2-1. Sunderland have won just one of | :41:59. | :42:01. | |
their last seven Premier League trips to London. And Eriksen finds | :42:02. | :42:08. | |
the net again! Christian Eriksen's his second of the match. And by a | :42:09. | :42:15. | |
deflection for the second time. But now Tottenham have a little bit of | :42:16. | :42:20. | |
reading room. Aston Villa beat 3-1 here earlier in the season. | :42:21. | :42:23. | |
Sunderland suffering the same fate. Good play by Spurs. Was he felt? Yet | :42:24. | :42:34. | |
he was. The cold, having deflected the shot, Tottenham have conceded | :42:35. | :42:42. | |
the penalty. -- Kirchhoff. Harry Kane on target yet again. 32 goals | :42:43. | :42:45. | |
in his last 50 Premier League matches. 4-1. A quick look at the | :42:46. | :42:54. | |
title race, if you thought today was a good point for Arsenal and Stoke, | :42:55. | :42:59. | |
two points dropped for Leicester at Villa? You could look at it that way | :43:00. | :43:04. | |
or you could say it was four pointing two away games. Three | :43:05. | :43:07. | |
points at Tottenham midweek and one point against Villa yesterday. They | :43:08. | :43:10. | |
probably should have got more with the missed penalty. But Leicester | :43:11. | :43:15. | |
are not going anywhere. I think they are there for the long haul. | :43:16. | :43:19. | |
Everyone expects them to drop points and falter, but they are staying | :43:20. | :43:23. | |
there. And you said the same about Spurs? Yes, they reacted well. They | :43:24. | :43:27. | |
got beaten at home and then they went down against Sunderland and you | :43:28. | :43:30. | |
were thinking, they showed great character. But they looked very | :43:31. | :43:37. | |
comfortable against Sunderland. And Manchester City? They need another | :43:38. | :43:43. | |
day. The first goals, fortuitous. The deflection from Fabian Delph, | :43:44. | :43:48. | |
long-range, disappointing. But in general, the last two were | :43:49. | :43:52. | |
world-class. Aguero and David Silva, they are starting to look fit again. | :43:53. | :43:57. | |
Aguero looked sharp. He came back in November and he has got five goals | :43:58. | :44:01. | |
since the end of November. He is looking good. You just want a bit | :44:02. | :44:04. | |
more consistency from him? I think it is just taking of David Silva and | :44:05. | :44:12. | |
Aguero a bit longer to get back to match fitness. I think it is a worry | :44:13. | :44:14. | |
for the rest of the Premier League. Here are a few things to look out | :44:15. | :44:15. | |
for over the coming days. Radio 5Live have commentary | :44:16. | :44:20. | |
on the one remaining fixture from this weekend's | :44:21. | :44:22. | |
round of matches on Monday night. On Tuesday, you can keep | :44:23. | :44:24. | |
across all the FA Cup replays And on Wednesday night, | :44:25. | :44:27. | |
Leicester and Spurs meet for the third time this month - | :44:28. | :44:30. | |
this time their FA Cup replay. Going to focus on a Bournemouth side | :44:31. | :44:33. | |
now who have surprised many in the league this season - | :44:34. | :44:36. | |
through the eyes of Neil Vacher, the Club Secretary, | :44:37. | :44:39. | |
as they faced Norwich. Hi, I'm Neil Vacher, club secretary | :44:40. | :44:57. | |
of AFC Bournemouth. Mike grandparents and parents followed | :44:58. | :45:00. | |
the team. It was an institution in my family. My dad started to take me | :45:01. | :45:04. | |
all along the games after nagging on my part to both my parents. I have | :45:05. | :45:07. | |
an abiding memory of the game against Margate here on a first | :45:08. | :45:12. | |
round of the FA Cup. The result of the game, incredibly, was born was | :45:13. | :45:17. | |
11, Margate nil. One player scored nine goals in that game, hardly | :45:18. | :45:20. | |
something that is likely to be repeated. My first role at the club | :45:21. | :45:25. | |
was as a day announcer my next role was to run the Cherries hotshots | :45:26. | :45:30. | |
lottery, then I got an undefeated league record as kit man. I can | :45:31. | :45:33. | |
still remember the stick I got from the players during my time as kit | :45:34. | :45:37. | |
man. Some of them are still here. One of them is now the manager. I've | :45:38. | :45:41. | |
known it if many years, he's been brilliant as a player and as a | :45:42. | :45:48. | |
manager -- Eddie He has seen the dark days, thrown in at the deep end | :45:49. | :45:53. | |
and he has kept this club alive. It feels extremely appropriate to have | :45:54. | :45:57. | |
my father's name upon the wall because so many of our happy times | :45:58. | :46:01. | |
together was spent here, watching. Whether they won or lost it was | :46:02. | :46:05. | |
something we did as father and son. Sadly, he died before I became a | :46:06. | :46:11. | |
full-time employee of the club. But I'd like to think I've done it for | :46:12. | :46:18. | |
him. COMMENTATOR: | :46:19. | :46:21. | |
Not many people here in the ground the last time Bournemouth beat | :46:22. | :46:24. | |
Norwich City, way back in October 19 59. A right footed bawling, Dan | :46:25. | :46:32. | |
Gosling almost got the earlier centre from Mark Hue, but he was on | :46:33. | :46:38. | |
hand to nod in that once inside ten minutes. Bournemouth take the lead. | :46:39. | :46:44. | |
He is looking for Afobe, who might get to it and he has. This looks | :46:45. | :46:49. | |
trouble for the Norwich City goalkeeper. Bournemouth will feel | :46:50. | :46:57. | |
hard done by here. I'm not sure about that one. Smith has got away | :46:58. | :47:08. | |
from Jarvis easily. Smith goes on, a lunging challenge, the clearance was | :47:09. | :47:12. | |
terrible and its off the line by Martin. Oh dear, edge of the seat | :47:13. | :47:19. | |
stuff again! Stanislas. A penalty this time. I think it was a penalty | :47:20. | :47:29. | |
as well. Off the post. That's the kind of advantage that Bournemouth | :47:30. | :47:34. | |
merits. From their dominance of this fixture. Daniels. On he goes, Afobe | :47:35. | :47:43. | |
with his arm up in the middle awaits the cross. Here he is and their | :47:44. | :47:49. | |
misses first goal for Bournemouth. His face is a picture. The points | :47:50. | :47:55. | |
are safe. Eddie Howe's afternoon is now perfect. A goal for the record | :47:56. | :48:03. | |
signing, Benik Afobe A. Bournemouth's most emphatic victory | :48:04. | :48:07. | |
of the season. Is a great victory for us, it means an awful lot. It's | :48:08. | :48:12. | |
pushed us nicely up the table and it sets as well now for the big game at | :48:13. | :48:16. | |
Sunderland next weekend, which is another 6-point. Thank you for Neil | :48:17. | :48:21. | |
Vacher for his time. Looking at these two clubs a lot of people | :48:22. | :48:24. | |
would think they are quite similar, both promoted, both have bright | :48:25. | :48:28. | |
young British managers, yet there is one huge difference between the two | :48:29. | :48:33. | |
of them. Since summer 2014, bottom -- Bournemouth's next bend is ?38 | :48:34. | :48:39. | |
million and Norwich's is -13 million pounds. There is a lot of difference | :48:40. | :48:44. | |
what they have spent on players. And Bournemouth point ahead of Norwich. | :48:45. | :48:46. | |
Yes? LAUGHTER | :48:47. | :48:53. | |
Money isn't everything. A lot will depend on what happens between now | :48:54. | :48:56. | |
and the end of the season because Bournemouth have spent big already, | :48:57. | :49:01. | |
Grabban, Afobe, Tovey on loan from an already scoring goals so a lot | :49:02. | :49:05. | |
will depend obviously how those players settle in there. You might | :49:06. | :49:09. | |
just see Bournemouth getting a few more points from now. The fact they | :49:10. | :49:13. | |
have done that this transfer window and gone big with those three | :49:14. | :49:16. | |
players they have brought in, that could put pressure on clubs like | :49:17. | :49:22. | |
Norwich to maybe not match them, but... It's a gamble because of what | :49:23. | :49:26. | |
is at stake next season. When the big money comes in for the TV deals | :49:27. | :49:31. | |
next year, that is what Bournemouth are doing, banking on that. It's | :49:32. | :49:35. | |
different philosophies. Eddie Howe realises they need back-up, they | :49:36. | :49:39. | |
have bought it. I think he will get -- I think he thinks he will get | :49:40. | :49:43. | |
more points from it. I'm not sure of the same realisation at Norwich. | :49:44. | :49:49. | |
Were expecting Swansea to announce they have appointed another manager | :49:50. | :49:54. | |
today, and as we understand they are going to call him the head coach. He | :49:55. | :49:57. | |
will work alongside Alan Curtis, but that would appear he is now going to | :49:58. | :50:04. | |
be more in charge than Alan. Messy. Reminds me of Queens Park Rangers | :50:05. | :50:07. | |
was Chris Ramsey, it's very confusing. Ten days ago they | :50:08. | :50:13. | |
appointed Alan until the end of the season and ten days on its new head | :50:14. | :50:17. | |
coach. You look at Swansea many years ago, they have this philosophy | :50:18. | :50:22. | |
where they had the managers brought in, when one left they had one ready | :50:23. | :50:28. | |
to come in. It was usually a manager that got headhunted. He has been | :50:29. | :50:31. | |
successful at Udinese, he got them to finish third, fourth and fifth in | :50:32. | :50:36. | |
Serie A. There might be positives. Does he know the Premier League? We | :50:37. | :50:38. | |
will soon find out. Time for the rest of the weekend's | :50:39. | :50:41. | |
action, starting with drama Charging his way through, Romelu | :50:42. | :50:59. | |
Lukaku. He has found Barkley. Here is Baines. It was waiting, it has | :51:00. | :51:04. | |
gone in, it's an own goal. I think John Terry got the final touch. We | :51:05. | :51:08. | |
tried to clear it, he had against his other foot and into the back of | :51:09. | :51:11. | |
the net. John Terry own goal, Chelsea Nick -- Chelsea nil, Everton | :51:12. | :51:17. | |
one. A terrific run from Ross Barkley. Is there a choice at the | :51:18. | :51:23. | |
end of it? Lennon. We saw Baines available. Swept in towards | :51:24. | :51:31. | |
Mirallas. A fine finish. Everton have put their stamp on this match, | :51:32. | :51:37. | |
in from Baines. One touch from Mirallas and the second was lethal. | :51:38. | :51:42. | |
A lovely volley. The expression tells you everything. A tense first | :51:43. | :51:51. | |
half it's a distant memory now, Diego Costa gets through and he will | :51:52. | :51:57. | |
pull one back for Chelsea. Everton will be disappointed to concede that | :51:58. | :52:01. | |
one. Chelsea are back in it. Nothing more than a long ball from Fabregas. | :52:02. | :52:06. | |
Jagielka once the flight of it, Diego Costa couldn't miss. They were | :52:07. | :52:11. | |
in control there, Everton. They will bid as a -- bitterly disappointed to | :52:12. | :52:17. | |
concede from that long ball. A shooting opportunity for Fabregas, | :52:18. | :52:23. | |
deflected it in from two down, the 2-2. What a turnaround. Two Chelsea | :52:24. | :52:34. | |
goals in two minutes. The former midfield player who won the FA Cup | :52:35. | :52:38. | |
for Guus Hiddink for Chelsea at Wembley against Everton watching on. | :52:39. | :52:46. | |
Headed away by Remy. Back from Deulofeu, and turned in by Funes | :52:47. | :52:55. | |
Mori. Right on the 90th minute. Funes Mori with his second Premier | :52:56. | :52:59. | |
League goal and it could be the winning one at Stamford Bridge. | :53:00. | :53:03. | |
There is one more piece of defending to do for Everton. Funes Mori beaten | :53:04. | :53:09. | |
to it by Zouma. It may come through the Terry. John Terry with the last | :53:10. | :53:17. | |
kick of the game has levelled as for Chelsea. Suspicion of offside, but | :53:18. | :53:24. | |
what a finish! A moment of improvisation from John Terry, on | :53:25. | :53:30. | |
his 700th career appearance. What a second-half. | :53:31. | :53:39. | |
Ward-Prowse goes for goal and scores. Ward-Prowse has Southampton | :53:40. | :53:48. | |
in front inside five minutes. Boaz Myhill left contemplating the free | :53:49. | :53:51. | |
kick from James Ward-Prowse. Breaks the deadlock with his first goal of | :53:52. | :53:54. | |
the season. Tony Pulis, a little shake of the head. It's his birthday | :53:55. | :54:02. | |
today, 58 years old. That's clever from Long, looking from the -- | :54:03. | :54:06. | |
looking for Targett. Clumsy, a penalty. Targett is in behind, | :54:07. | :54:11. | |
Dawson takes him out. I don't think you can argue with that. He scored | :54:12. | :54:16. | |
in the fifth minute of this game. We are in 35th minute and he score the | :54:17. | :54:21. | |
game. He has doubled his career tally in half an hour. Well taken by | :54:22. | :54:23. | |
James Ward-Prowse. They are charging on again. Tadic in | :54:24. | :54:35. | |
the middle, Ward-Prowse arising. Here is Tadic. Is he on-site? Yes, | :54:36. | :54:42. | |
he is, and its three. Dusan Tadic with Southampton's third. They | :54:43. | :54:47. | |
deserve it. It's concise, precise and completed by a lovely finish. | :54:48. | :54:58. | |
Perez. A shot which is on target. Perez, it was set up for him | :54:59. | :55:11. | |
perfectly and he beat Adrian was perfection. That is perfectly | :55:12. | :55:15. | |
touched into the bottom corner. Singing on in support of Newcastle | :55:16. | :55:19. | |
this afternoon, Alan Shearer joined by Ed Sheeran. What a pass that is | :55:20. | :55:26. | |
the Janmaat, who has taken it ever so well. And Wijnaldum benefits. | :55:27. | :55:31. | |
What a slick goal for Newcastle. This is just what Newcastle want to | :55:32. | :55:35. | |
see from Jonjo Shelvey, right into the lap of a fullback, Janmaat, who | :55:36. | :55:41. | |
in turn laid it on a plate for Wijnaldum. Valencia did well to get | :55:42. | :55:50. | |
their ahead of him, Jelavic will surely profit here. It's over the | :55:51. | :55:55. | |
line, and it's a goal back, with virtually his first touch. A mistake | :55:56. | :56:01. | |
by Mbemba and Jelavic, who has just come on, was sharp enough to make it | :56:02. | :56:06. | |
2-1, and it's only Steve McClaren's fifth Premier League win as manager | :56:07. | :56:11. | |
of Newcastle United. Let's go back to Southampton, they | :56:12. | :56:16. | |
played a blinder, Charlie Austin 4 million, and going under the radar | :56:17. | :56:19. | |
and doing the deal and just announcing it. A great signing, I | :56:20. | :56:25. | |
seen him play, goal-scorer, gets in the box, gets anything in the box in | :56:26. | :56:28. | |
the air, good service into him and he will finish. 4 million quid, a | :56:29. | :56:34. | |
no-brainer. You were at Saint James is yesterday, your impressions of | :56:35. | :56:41. | |
Jonjo Shelvey? Very good, a very good debut, the sparse for the | :56:42. | :56:43. | |
second goal was superb. If you can build on that. Is that what they | :56:44. | :56:48. | |
have been missing? Yes, that under goal-scorer. Ironic, five goals in | :56:49. | :56:51. | |
the last two games but he was superb yesterday. Did your new best friend | :56:52. | :56:55. | |
and joyous alongside you? Ed Sheeran. Yes. He was a great lag, he | :56:56. | :57:03. | |
wanted to come to the game. -- a great lad. He agreed to play at my | :57:04. | :57:07. | |
annual foundation ball, which provides for my centre. He was | :57:08. | :57:10. | |
absolutely superb, very impressed with him and his team, so huge | :57:11. | :57:16. | |
thanks. Did you enjoyed? He can come every week. Is the lucky mascot? ! | :57:17. | :57:22. | |
Thank you very much. Let's take a look at the Barclays Premier League | :57:23. | :57:23. | |
table. Arsenal return to the top - | :57:24. | :57:26. | |
although they are only above Leicester on goal difference | :57:27. | :57:29. | |
after dropping two points. Manchester City are just | :57:30. | :57:31. | |
a point further back. Manchester United's victory has | :57:32. | :57:34. | |
taken them up to fifth - None of the sides in the bottom half | :57:35. | :57:37. | |
were in action today. Aston Villa are six points | :57:38. | :57:40. | |
adrift at the bottom. A win for Swansea tomorrow at home | :57:41. | :57:43. | |
to Watford would take them out Showbiz warm up gear of the weekend | :57:44. | :57:46. | |
came from Alex Song. I think you got me from Glen | :57:47. | :58:16. | |
Johnson, in the right buttock. I know how that feels on a cold day. | :58:17. | :58:22. | |
Do you? How? Big Sam looking how we felt watching today's games. | :58:23. | :58:26. | |
Awareness of surroundings is important for a footballer. | :58:27. | :58:29. | |
Particularly when you realise you've gone down injured off the pitch. | :58:30. | :58:37. | |
LAUGHTER And look how happy a defender's | :58:38. | :58:42. | |
sweaty headband makes this Evertonians. | :58:43. | :58:47. | |
Thanks to Alan and Trevor for their company. | :58:48. | :58:49. | |
And after Everton gave us one of the most over the top | :58:50. | :58:52. | |
celebrations yesterday, we leave you with some of the best - | :58:53. | :58:55. | |
and one in particular that happened on this exact day back in 1998. | :58:56. | :58:59. | |
COMMENTATOR: Funes Mori on the 90th minute. John | :59:00. | :59:11. | |
Terry, with the last kick of the game. | :59:12. | :59:15. | |
Magnificent. The Footballer of the Year. | :59:16. | :59:28. | |
There's a message for everyone. He has done it! He said he would do a | :59:29. | :59:48. | |
somersault. Extraordinary gestures. | :59:49. | :59:50. |
