Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful.

:00:07.:00:10.

COMMENTATOR: Goals came and went. And, Keegan.

:00:11.:00:15.

Look at his face! Just look at his face!

:00:16.:00:19.

Look at that. Oh, look at that!

:00:20.:00:21.

What a goal. Oh, what a goal.

:00:22.:00:25.

It's been a spectacular day of action in the

:00:26.:00:43.

After Black Friday, we've had a goal-den Saturday.

:00:44.:00:57.

Alan Shearer and Danny Murphy have much to discuss.

:00:58.:01:17.

We start at the King Power Stadium, where Leicester's Jamie Vardy was

:01:18.:01:20.

looking to score for the 11th game in

:01:21.:01:23.

a row to beat Ruud Van Nistelrooy's all-time Premier League record.

:01:24.:01:26.

the club Van Nistelrooy represented - Manchester United.

:01:27.:01:31.

When Wayne Rooney was 17, he was becoming England's youngest ever

:01:32.:01:45.

scorer. When Jamie Vardy was 17, he was playing the whip asleep and

:01:46.:01:49.

dreaming of his big move the Stocksbridge Park Steels. Some make

:01:50.:01:57.

it early, some make it late. If he scores again today, it will be

:01:58.:02:00.

history for him and hope perhaps every Recreation Ground order, not

:02:01.:02:05.

so much that they will become a superstar but that one day they may

:02:06.:02:09.

play against one. Okazaki for Leonardo Ulloa is their only change.

:02:10.:02:15.

Rooney has a landmark of his own, one more United goal would put him

:02:16.:02:19.

second in their all-time scoring list. They go with a back three

:02:20.:02:26.

Herrera, Lingard are injured. The 22 Premier League games that have

:02:27.:02:31.

preceded this weekend, nobody has taken more points that Wood that

:02:32.:02:36.

Leicester City and they have taken more points than Newcastle,

:02:37.:02:38.

Sunderland and Aston Villa put together. Stuttering, stammering

:02:39.:02:45.

kind of run results in a corner. Manchester United are marginally the

:02:46.:02:50.

more threatening side. Blind with the corner, that was pretty much a

:02:51.:02:54.

free header if he had got a proper contact on it for Chris Smalling.

:02:55.:02:58.

Leicester would have been furious to concede like this. Good runs from

:02:59.:03:02.

Smalling, got himself in front of Robert Huth. He will look to do so

:03:03.:03:06.

again, from the other side. Blind's corner whipped in and well taken by

:03:07.:03:13.

Kasper Schmeichel. Schmeichel managing to avoid Schweinsteiger's

:03:14.:03:17.

boot. The referee has had a word with the German, as Leicester come

:03:18.:03:21.

forward. It's a great ball, Vardy is behind, he's it 70710 he has done!

:03:22.:03:28.

With his very first chance of the game! The V Festival goes on, Jamie

:03:29.:03:43.

Vardy four D, he has gone into the Premier League history books. 11

:03:44.:03:47.

consecutive games, scored in every single one of them. The league

:03:48.:03:54.

leaders Manchester United, from, don't forget, eight United corner.

:03:55.:03:59.

That's a brilliant ball, he's just onside. It's a great run. Not for a

:04:00.:04:07.

minute did missing crosses mind. Vardy's place in Premier League

:04:08.:04:13.

history is assured. I against Bournemouth, Villa, Stoke, Arsenal,

:04:14.:04:18.

Norwich, Southampton, Palace, is West Brom, Watford, Newcastle and

:04:19.:04:23.

now Manchester United, 11 straight games, 13 goals in all. The man of

:04:24.:04:29.

the moment, the man of the Season, Leicester one, Manchester United

:04:30.:04:33.

nil. The England manager cannot quite suppress a smile. He scores,

:04:34.:04:44.

sing the home fans. It's not the Premier League record, not the

:04:45.:04:50.

top-flight record, 1930-31, scored in 12 consecutive games for

:04:51.:04:56.

Sheffield United. Mahrez, a great link up with Okazaki. Good save by

:04:57.:05:00.

De Gea. Mahrez bursting into life, Okazaki involved, as almost always.

:05:01.:05:09.

Irrepressible Mahrez, great feat. Okazaki, oh... Nearly fell for it.

:05:10.:05:28.

This was a brilliant exchange. Good save by De Gea. Last time as the

:05:29.:05:34.

word top of the Premier League came in the year 2000, Orton, strangely

:05:35.:05:37.

their opposition were Manchester United. They lost that 13-0, they

:05:38.:05:46.

won't lose this 13-0. -- in autumn 2000. That had Kasper Schmeichel

:05:47.:05:53.

hurling himself, just in case. It's a Manchester United corner that

:05:54.:06:02.

parted Leonardo Ulloa on Drinkwater. My Arena United trailing by the

:06:03.:06:08.

Vardy goal. Whipped him, free header, Schweinsteiger equalises the

:06:09.:06:11.

Manchester United right at the end of the half! And Leicester's marking

:06:12.:06:17.

completely awry. A free header for Bastian Schweinsteiger from

:06:18.:06:21.

point-blank range and it's all square. Whipped in by Blind. He got

:06:22.:06:27.

away from Okazaki Schweinsteiger schools for Manchester United. It is

:06:28.:06:33.

1-1. With just one added minute to add at the end of the half. No

:06:34.:06:35.

better time to score. That header, Schweinsteiger's first

:06:36.:06:41.

Manchester United goal. Rooney, lurking around the penalty

:06:42.:06:58.

spot, Martial, twisting outside of Christian Fuchs and winning a free

:06:59.:07:06.

kick. Mata leads it. Young clips that. A good save by Schmeichel. The

:07:07.:07:11.

flag up on the near side, it wouldn't have counted anyway. Rooney

:07:12.:07:15.

flying in, has hurt himself in the process, he threw himself at this,

:07:16.:07:20.

Wayne Rooney. It's a very good save from Kasper Schmeichel, Rooney

:07:21.:07:23.

standing in an offside position. It's a good decision by Dave Bryant.

:07:24.:07:29.

Rooney getting something of Robert Huth right in the side. I wouldn't

:07:30.:07:33.

say Manchester United are exactly hammering on the door of

:07:34.:07:37.

Schmeichel's goal, but they are certainly looking halfway up the

:07:38.:07:42.

drive. A nice little dummy but Simpson was it might fall nicely,

:07:43.:07:46.

Riyad Mahrez is picking up speed. I don't think is going to catch on.

:07:47.:07:52.

It's says Finnish -- is the finish there? Not quite. David De Gea

:07:53.:07:59.

finish. Saves. Leonardo Ulloa can't believe you didn't put Leicester

:08:00.:08:03.

back in front. David De Gea made a much easier says than he might have

:08:04.:08:09.

been anticipating. -- save. 90 seconds of added time to play,

:08:10.:08:13.

Ashley Young here for Manchester United. Dangerously in the Mata.

:08:14.:08:21.

Back to Young, knocked up. Headed out by Schlupp, Bacchin by Darmian,

:08:22.:08:24.

who really struck it well. Really latched onto that. Super strike.

:08:25.:08:32.

Well worked by Manchester United. Never could they have envisaged when

:08:33.:08:36.

they took over this football club that they would end up sitting on

:08:37.:08:42.

top of the Premier League. Claudio Ranieri is 64, they may well feel

:08:43.:08:48.

they want to feed him when he's 74. Am delighted I got a goal to take me

:08:49.:08:53.

past Van Nistelrooy, but the boys are bit disappointed in the way we

:08:54.:08:54.

conceded the goal. are bit disappointed in the way we

:08:55.:08:57.

conceded the goal. Who knows, and another day it could have been three

:08:58.:09:01.

points. I am not happy because I have the feeling that we could have

:09:02.:09:06.

won this match. We have dominated 90 minutes, I think. We gave the goal

:09:07.:09:16.

away because we know already in offence that Leicester City is a

:09:17.:09:18.

counter team and also with our corner kicks they are very

:09:19.:09:22.

dangerous, so we cannot give that goal away. It's remarkable really

:09:23.:09:29.

that he could be so cool in such a big situation for him personally,

:09:30.:09:32.

and yet he didn't hesitate, he didn't seem to have any doubt at

:09:33.:09:39.

all? Know, all the team are very good physical condition, very good

:09:40.:09:43.

mentality. They want to try to do their best until the end. I've been

:09:44.:09:48.

taking each game as it comes. The record wasn't in my mind. That's how

:09:49.:09:53.

I've had to be. If I'd been concentrated on it it would have

:09:54.:09:56.

affected my performances and that's the last thing I would want to do

:09:57.:09:59.

because it would affect the team. We have put in a great performance

:10:00.:10:02.

today and we've come away with a point against a very good side. Have

:10:03.:10:07.

you ever experienced in your career a player who is relatively not that

:10:08.:10:12.

famous suddenly have an extraordinary run like this and

:10:13.:10:19.

become a superstar? Late in his career. I hope as an English man he

:10:20.:10:26.

scores many goals that would be nice. He's young? 28. I hope so. He

:10:27.:10:37.

started playing about 40 World Cups and scored more than anyone else.

:10:38.:10:42.

What an achievement, nevertheless, 11th consecutive games. Phenomenal.

:10:43.:10:48.

The only place to start. Absolutely brilliant, great achievement, so

:10:49.:10:51.

pleased for him. The goal summed best up, so positive, would catch

:10:52.:10:56.

from the goalkeeper. -- it summed Leicester up. Looking to break

:10:57.:11:01.

looking to break on Manchester United, he throws the ball to

:11:02.:11:06.

Christian Fuchs. This is brilliant, Vardy told him where he wants the

:11:07.:11:09.

ball but the weight of passing to him is superb and the finish is

:11:10.:11:13.

delightful, it really is. What alike is just watching, he never once

:11:14.:11:20.

looks up, so we see where the goal is because he knows where he is,

:11:21.:11:23.

he's aware of what's around him and he is aware of where the goal is. He

:11:24.:11:27.

doesn't have to look. He puts his foot behind it, 11 in a row,

:11:28.:11:32.

brilliant, congratulations. You notice off that graphic, four of

:11:33.:11:36.

them come late in the last seven or eight minutes of games, which for

:11:37.:11:40.

strikers is a great period in the game because lack of concentration

:11:41.:11:44.

from other players, tiredness, it's a great sign. Superb. A few years

:11:45.:11:50.

ago in one of my games for Blackburn he played for Leicester and runners

:11:51.:11:54.

ragged. The lads said, who is this lad? His progression is remarkable.

:11:55.:12:00.

We saw that Vardy's goal came from Schmeichel catch, threw it out

:12:01.:12:04.

quickly, but the United goal, which was a very similar corner but a

:12:05.:12:09.

different result? It was incredible how similar they are and this is the

:12:10.:12:13.

joy of being a goalkeeper, I suppose. Commanding, exactly what

:12:14.:12:16.

you want from a goalkeeper. Sets up the goal. Like his dad, in many

:12:17.:12:22.

ways. For some reason the exact same corner, he decides to stay on his

:12:23.:12:26.

line and ultimately he's gone from hero to villain. But he's had a

:12:27.:12:29.

tremendous season. I'm not getting on his case but he should have gone

:12:30.:12:34.

for that one. Would you fancy playing up front for this Manchester

:12:35.:12:39.

United outfit? No, I wouldn't, because I know Martial and in

:12:40.:12:42.

particular Wayne Rooney have come in for criticism for performances but

:12:43.:12:47.

it's understandable why, but there are reasons for it. That ball should

:12:48.:12:52.

go in the box but neither forward is in a decent position. OK, they come

:12:53.:12:58.

back. They go square. They go out into the exact same position on the

:12:59.:13:01.

left-hand side and a chance to cross it but it doesn't so they've gone

:13:02.:13:05.

from one side to the other four are throwing. Not great for a centre

:13:06.:13:09.

forward. So click on there, look at the difference, look at the space,

:13:10.:13:14.

the gaps between there's no linkup between Martial and Rooney. They are

:13:15.:13:17.

not working as a pair whatsoever. It happened all game. Rooney perhaps

:13:18.:13:23.

should hold that but he doesn't, he chooses to flick it on. There's no

:13:24.:13:28.

one around him, not Mata. Look where his partner is, Martial, they are

:13:29.:13:32.

miles apart. How on earth will they cause problems to back four by

:13:33.:13:36.

Leicester -- like Leicester by playing that far apart? This time

:13:37.:13:40.

the left-hand side, Rooney should come around there and work as a

:13:41.:13:44.

pair. Do you think it's under instruction? Absolutely, totally

:13:45.:13:50.

instruction. Rooney, a poor performance, he comes off. This is

:13:51.:13:55.

what the coaches telling them what to do, nothing changes. That

:13:56.:13:58.

instruction is coming from the manager. It's probably as a respect

:13:59.:14:03.

for Leicester to try to nullify Leicester going forward but for

:14:04.:14:07.

United it didn't work at all and I would not want to play in that team

:14:08.:14:12.

because of the lack of chances they create. It's fine to split when the

:14:13.:14:16.

goalkeeper has the ball, they wanted him to kick it long, but the idea of

:14:17.:14:20.

playing three at the back is to get two strikers on the pitch together.

:14:21.:14:25.

At the top. They were no worried -- nowhere near each of the one.

:14:26.:14:32.

Embarrassing, hopeless and inept Not you two...

:14:33.:14:34.

Just some of the words used by Alan to describe Newcastle's performance

:14:35.:14:37.

Steve McClaren's side were in action at Crystal Palace,

:14:38.:14:40.

managed of course by former Newcastle boss, Alan Pardew.

:14:41.:14:42.

Jonathan Pearce was at Selhurst Park.

:14:43.:14:45.

COMMENTATOR: Alan Pardew meets his old club hoping Newcastle hasn't

:14:46.:14:53.

learnt too many lessons from Sunderland who nullified Palace's

:14:54.:14:56.

pace by winning here 1-0 on Monday. One win in six for Eagles who have

:14:57.:15:01.

struggled here this season. They name an unnamed side with Wickham

:15:02.:15:07.

getting a chance upfront against his rivals. Same team, new ideas to

:15:08.:15:13.

solve problems caused by Sunderland, according to Pardew. Newcastle make

:15:14.:15:19.

two changes from their defeat by Leicester. Papiss Cisse gets his

:15:20.:15:23.

first start since September having scored here last season. Mitrovic

:15:24.:15:31.

dropped to the bench. Traditionally the survival mark for Premier League

:15:32.:15:35.

teams down the bottom has been 40 points. Not so in recent years.

:15:36.:15:41.

Newcastle won't want to go into the new year needing one-and-a-half

:15:42.:15:46.

points a game to hit that target. Perez. He's done well. Too easy.

:15:47.:15:56.

Cisse. 1-0, Newcastle United. Crystal Palace simply switched off.

:15:57.:16:05.

They allowed Janaszak to come too fared. Cisse, like last season, has

:16:06.:16:16.

put them in the lead. -- piano far. Cisse is onside. Should have closed

:16:17.:16:24.

on the ball, Crystal Palace. Lovely header. Guided in. Second defeat in

:16:25.:16:39.

a week against north-east sides. Perez, into the box. Cisse, again.

:16:40.:16:47.

Blocked by Ward. Sissoko, blocked, again. Spirited stuff by Newcastle.

:16:48.:16:54.

Strong run bias sis. The second shot was blocked, just like the first.

:16:55.:16:59.

Steve McClaren said his team has worked hard all week to exercise the

:17:00.:17:05.

ghosts of last week's defeat by Leicester. Lost seven of their last

:17:06.:17:09.

11 home games, Crystal Palace. Here's Wickham. Turns it back in for

:17:10.:17:15.

McArthur. The shot was deflected. It's in. Crystal Palace are level.

:17:16.:17:20.

Newcastle's lead lasted just three minutes. Huge slice of fortune about

:17:21.:17:25.

the goal. Look at the space there as well. Newcastle holding the line on

:17:26.:17:30.

the edge of their own penalty. It goes off Dummett. No chance for

:17:31.:17:39.

Elliot. Flying through the air, the deflection took it another way. A

:17:40.:17:46.

rip roaring atmosphere at Selhurst. Palace fans are buoyant, Newcastle

:17:47.:17:51.

silent at the moment. Here's Zaha. Wickham. Will he get a shot away?

:17:52.:17:57.

Pushes it into McArthur. Needed to think quicker than that. Bolasie,

:17:58.:18:03.

2-1. Newcastle's defending absolutely horrible. Two in three

:18:04.:18:10.

minutes for Crystal Palace. Look at the speed in which they counter.

:18:11.:18:19.

Wickham played it square. Zaha left it for his pal. Bolasie rammed it

:18:20.:18:26.

home. Crystal Palace are ahead. What an eventful opening period to the

:18:27.:18:31.

game it has been. Who would be a manager when your team is playing as

:18:32.:18:37.

open as this? Both managers, Pardew, McClaren, wanted to see a reaction

:18:38.:18:45.

from their teams today to defeats. Bolasie pulled into the wide

:18:46.:18:55.

position. McArthur in there as well. Nearly got to it.

:18:56.:18:59.

The plan isn't working. Cisse, to Anita. Palace are quicker to the

:19:00.:19:10.

ball. Bolasie. Isolated the defenders. Wickham to his left hand

:19:11.:19:16.

side. Mbemba. Back here for Zaha. Here it comes. Crystal Palace have a

:19:17.:19:25.

third. That will do Wilfried Zaha the world of good. A slice of

:19:26.:19:30.

fortune. The big bounce took it over Elliot and into the back of the net.

:19:31.:19:35.

Wickham's run was courageous. Sensible pullback. There was the big

:19:36.:19:40.

fortunate bounce. Crystal Palace 3, Newcastle United 1. At this stage,

:19:41.:19:45.

you can't see Newcastle United coming back into this or thriving in

:19:46.:19:51.

the Premier League with a defence like this. Newcastle make a

:19:52.:19:57.

half-time change then. Lascelles on for Perez. They have gone to a back

:19:58.:20:03.

three. Immediately concede a free-kick. 6 foot 2 initial

:20:04.:20:10.

defender, Derby born, climbing on the back. Wickham has caused

:20:11.:20:18.

trouble. He's in there again. Palace have a fourth! Bolasie at the

:20:19.:20:24.

far-post. All eyes were on Wickham. The free-kick was played in towards

:20:25.:20:29.

Delaney. Header to the back post. Newcastle have made a change, same

:20:30.:20:35.

old story, conceding. Delaney with the header. Bolasie was quickest to

:20:36.:20:43.

react. Crystal Palace 4, Newcastle 1. His second of the game. Crystal

:20:44.:20:52.

Palace have been struggling here to score goals. Wickham pressurising

:20:53.:20:59.

Lascelles. Puncheon. Well, they are turning it on now. Alan Pardew will

:21:00.:21:03.

love to see this. Zaha not giving up on it. Puncheon, over. Crystal

:21:04.:21:09.

Palace have hit four twice this season. On both occasions it was in

:21:10.:21:15.

the Premier League Cup against Shrewsbury and Charlton. Here's

:21:16.:21:19.

Puncheon. Gets that cross in. Very well played. Just over the bar by a

:21:20.:21:25.

hat-trick seeking Bolasie. The could have played it wide, whipped that

:21:26.:21:31.

left cross. Beautifully played to the edge. Six-yard area. How about

:21:32.:21:37.

that for a delivery? Two signs that a couple of Palace players have

:21:38.:21:43.

given perhaps all they can do today. Here's Ward coming forward. With the

:21:44.:21:49.

a right-footed drive. Piledriver. Purposefully drove into the gap.

:21:50.:21:53.

Just a finger tip over from Rob Elliot. He will be delighted. Much

:21:54.:22:02.

happier today. Of course, it's against his old side. Here's

:22:03.:22:07.

Gouffran. Is the last time Palace scored five was against Ipswich in

:22:08.:22:13.

the Championship in November 2012. They have never scored five in the

:22:14.:22:18.

Premier League. A good effort. Deflected just wide. He wrapped his

:22:19.:22:24.

foot around the ball and deserved better. They are looking furlong and

:22:25.:22:31.

there are very big tests around the corner. Newcastle United could be

:22:32.:22:41.

sliding into big trouble. Souare. They almost walked through. Look at

:22:42.:22:44.

the number of white shorts simply bypassed.

:22:45.:22:54.

Dispossessed. Hasn't the legs to stay with him. Bamford is at the

:22:55.:23:02.

far-post. It will come back, McArthur. Crystal Palace made

:23:03.:23:07.

Premier League history. They have a fifth in Premier League football for

:23:08.:23:10.

the first time thechl have been dominant throughout. Thrilling,

:23:11.:23:16.

entertaining, decisive, hungry. It's a key word. Newcastle United got off

:23:17.:23:22.

to a bright start, but crumbled. On the evidence of this, they are

:23:23.:23:27.

sliding into deep trouble. Crystal Palace 5, Newcastle United 1. Didn't

:23:28.:23:31.

really change too much tactically. A couple of little things we thought

:23:32.:23:36.

might work. Bolasie caused more chaos down by playing through the

:23:37.:23:41.

middle. We were terrific today. Regardless of what opposition we

:23:42.:23:44.

played we would have won today. The we arics isth in the division for a

:23:45.:23:48.

reason. We have a good team. Our home form hasn't been good enough.

:23:49.:23:51.

To bounce back today was great and the manager we did it. After they

:23:52.:23:55.

scored we dominated the game after that for the rest of the match.

:23:56.:23:58.

Which was great. It's not about systems, it's not tactics. It's

:23:59.:24:02.

about attitude, fight, about staying in the game. It's about working and

:24:03.:24:05.

running backwards as quick Assombalonga you run forwards. The

:24:06.:24:08.

reaction was good. We had that. Once the third goal went in. That went

:24:09.:24:15.

down. People are loving the dressing room as players and staff and fans

:24:16.:24:20.

who travelled today. Whatever I say about Newcastle is contrived to be

:24:21.:24:24.

something else, I don't want to say anything other than they are a great

:24:25.:24:27.

club I hope their fortunes change in the coming weeks. You are in a

:24:28.:24:33.

relegation fight still? Absolutely. No doubt about that. We knew it

:24:34.:24:37.

would be tough. We said after 10-12 games we know where we will be.

:24:38.:24:41.

Relegation fight. 13 games gone. 25 to go. If we are at this stage of

:24:42.:24:45.

the season and 13 to go then I would be starting to get worried. There is

:24:46.:24:48.

enough time. I think there is enough in that dressing room. We have to

:24:49.:24:53.

bring it out. A message to the fans is - it's so, so disappointing. We

:24:54.:24:57.

are so disappointed for them as much as anybody, travelling this far and

:24:58.:25:02.

seeing not a Newcastle team play for the 95 minutes and fight. Can't be

:25:03.:25:06.

much fun coming here at the moment for you, I suppose in many ways. At

:25:07.:25:10.

the same time you have to give Crystal Palace credit. . They were

:25:11.:25:14.

tremendous? Fantastic. I spoke to Sam Allardyce on Tuesday after the

:25:15.:25:18.

win that Sunderland had against Crystal Palace. I said - what was

:25:19.:25:22.

your plan. How did you win the game? He said, simple, our plan was to

:25:23.:25:26.

stop Bolasie and Zaha. He felt they were there their two main players.

:25:27.:25:31.

Newcastle could not do that at all today. They didn't get near them.

:25:32.:25:36.

These two guys ran the show. Brilliant from start to finish.

:25:37.:25:39.

Superb ball out. Dummett goes past him too easily. Decent ball in.

:25:40.:25:45.

Great pace to run in behind Newcastle's back four. Great

:25:46.:25:49.

composure. Great little ball at the edge of the box. Should do better.

:25:50.:25:53.

It's very, very good play from Crystal Palace. Ball comes across.

:25:54.:25:57.

Shocking defending, which Danny will point out in a minute. But very,

:25:58.:26:01.

very good finish from Bolasie. Look at the strength? Hauls off Anita.

:26:02.:26:04.

Only one guy was going to win that ball. It was Bolasie. A decent ball

:26:05.:26:09.

in to Wickham. Away you go again. Too much time to turn, to run at the

:26:10.:26:14.

Newcastle back four. They caused them problems, as I said, all

:26:15.:26:18.

afternoon. Look at the space that Zaha has on the edge of the box?

:26:19.:26:23.

Lucky finish. He scuffs it. But long ball up, one-on-one again, goes past

:26:24.:26:28.

Mbemba. Far too easily. They get away with it. It's a foul, they hit

:26:29.:26:32.

the post. Look at the long ball up here Look at the space he has to

:26:33.:26:37.

bring it down on his chest. Chests it into Zaha. One-on-one. I'm

:26:38.:26:41.

thinking to the Newcastle defence, clatter someone. Give us something.

:26:42.:26:46.

Good ball in. It was just far, pa too easy for Palace all afternoon.

:26:47.:26:51.

Newcastle got what they deserved. I suppose in many ways newicals really

:26:52.:26:56.

farcical at the moment almost? It surprises me. When I worked with

:26:57.:27:03.

Steve he was tactically very well when he was Scven's number two with

:27:04.:27:05.

England much you have to show some attitude. They are all over the

:27:06.:27:09.

place. You need desire to defend properly. With the mistakes they

:27:10.:27:12.

made today. It's happening too often. This is a simple loss of the

:27:13.:27:16.

ball in midfield. It isn't the end of the world. The back four is in an

:27:17.:27:22.

OK position. What happens next is ridiculous. No-one is talking.

:27:23.:27:28.

Coloccini goes to ground for in reason. He turns his back on Bolasie

:27:29.:27:33.

shooting. Show some bravery. Show some desire. This is a simple set

:27:34.:27:48.

play. I mean, again it's Yanukovych. -- Janaszak. The lack of leadership

:27:49.:27:52.

in the back four. The midfield as well weren't happening. This is late

:27:53.:27:56.

in the game. When you expect someone to maybe make a tactical. Take a

:27:57.:28:00.

booking, show some desire. Poor clearance. This goes through two

:28:01.:28:05.

defend and the goalkeeper. I mean, it is so poor. I think they have

:28:06.:28:09.

real problems. I don't see any strength and depth in the squad they

:28:10.:28:12.

can replace the players with who they are playing with so badly.

:28:13.:28:19.

Fancy a weekly rant? Stay calm. It's difficult to sum up Newcastle's

:28:20.:28:23.

flight in 30 seconds. You can't coach players who don't want to be

:28:24.:28:26.

coach, who are not good enough. They have too many Monday to Friday

:28:27.:28:29.

players. Good on training, don't want to perform on Saturday. From

:28:30.:28:32.

the manager's point of view, I don't see a plan. I didn't see a plan

:28:33.:28:36.

three weeks ago at Bournemouth. I didn't see a plan last week against

:28:37.:28:40.

Leicester City or a plan today to stop the opposition. Recruitment.

:28:41.:28:45.

The guys in charge of recruiting players have got away with it for

:28:46.:28:49.

such a long time now at Newcastle. The players they signed are not good

:28:50.:28:53.

enough, simple. Apart from that - Apart from that it's great. Move on.

:28:54.:28:58.

Was that 30 seconds? Well played, Crystal Palace.

:28:59.:29:02.

Bournemouth's point at Swansea ended a run of four straight defeats, but

:29:03.:29:05.

they still began the day second from bottom for the visit of Everton, who

:29:06.:29:08.

John Motson was at the Vitality Stadium.

:29:09.:29:16.

Distin has played more in the Premier League than any other

:29:17.:29:21.

outfield Premier League player. He made his 450th start last week, 157

:29:22.:29:29.

of them for the day's visitors, Everton. Eddie Howe is 38 tomorrow.

:29:30.:29:34.

He names an unchanged team from the draw at Swansea. They have another

:29:35.:29:38.

ex-Aberdonian in Dan Gosling. That 4-0 win over Aston Villa means

:29:39.:29:43.

Everton are also unchanged. Romelu Lukaku leak reached a landmark 50

:29:44.:29:47.

Premier League goals last week but Leighton Baines has not travelled.

:29:48.:29:54.

Daniel getting that inside the Gosling. This is King. King for

:29:55.:30:04.

Bournemouth, Stanislas tried to follow up. Tim Howard made the save.

:30:05.:30:09.

Josh King has scored his per -- first Premier League goal last week

:30:10.:30:12.

and threatened to strike again there. Howard down to block the

:30:13.:30:20.

shot. That was Barry, across the Deulofeu. Lukaku has his arm up

:30:21.:30:23.

coming in from the left-hand side. It has run on the Kone. Good stop by

:30:24.:30:30.

Federici. Reacted very well there. I think Simon Francis allowed that

:30:31.:30:34.

ball to rather drop over him. Or rather didn't get the header on as

:30:35.:30:39.

he wanted and Kone driving for the near post. Corner again to Everton.

:30:40.:30:51.

Lukaku. Goalkeeper twice. Well, Everton are really turning the screw

:30:52.:30:55.

on Bournemouth here. Romelu Lukaku with a header, pushed up by the

:30:56.:31:00.

goalkeeper, who then got a second touch. There's Jeff Mostyn, the

:31:01.:31:05.

Bournemouth chairman and the supporters here are well aware that

:31:06.:31:08.

in the bad old days when they were collecting money in buckets to keep

:31:09.:31:12.

the club going, he put a fair amount in himself. Galloway is up to

:31:13.:31:19.

McCarthy's left. It's another Everton corner. They are really

:31:20.:31:23.

forcing Bournemouth back now. Funes Mori, it's in! It's a goal for

:31:24.:31:36.

Everton and the Argentine will claim it. You have to say, you could see

:31:37.:31:42.

it running. 25 minutes gone. Roberto Martinez saw it in the lead on the

:31:43.:31:48.

big centre-half who is really playing because of the injury to

:31:49.:31:52.

Jagielka, scores his first Everton goal here. Number 25. It was into

:31:53.:31:57.

the roof of the net with power, wasn't it? Funes Mori gives Everton

:31:58.:32:06.

the lead, and Bournemouth face an afternoon of struggle again here.

:32:07.:32:19.

Lukaku, oh, he got his shot in from what looked to be a difficult

:32:20.:32:26.

angle, round the defender and the goalkeeper Rand Romelu Lukaku come

:32:27.:32:31.

after 36 minutes, brings his Premier League total to 52. Deulofeu

:32:32.:32:40.

threading the ball through, but he's so strong, look -- Lukaku. He has

:32:41.:32:45.

really held off the defender and used power to drive it between

:32:46.:32:51.

goalkeeper and near post. Bournemouth nil, Everton two.

:32:52.:32:56.

Everton have been scoring goals for fun, recently. Six against

:32:57.:33:00.

Sunderland, four against Aston Villa, two already here in the first

:33:01.:33:08.

half. Richie's Cross, Cook is in there, hooked out from under the

:33:09.:33:14.

bar. By Stones. Up goes Stanislas, it's still free, no, it's not now,

:33:15.:33:20.

the nearest Bournemouth have come. Cook was the player with the header

:33:21.:33:24.

and Stones hooked it out before it could cross. Bournemouth make two

:33:25.:33:30.

substitutions at half-time, Adam Smith is on in defence for Steve

:33:31.:33:33.

Cook, but perhaps more significantly, Ryan Allsop has come

:33:34.:33:40.

on in place of Adam Federici, who was injured earlier.

:33:41.:33:44.

And now Richie, Smith coming up in support. This is after. -- Arter.

:33:45.:34:01.

And now Howard makes a save which is doubly important, because it took

:34:02.:34:05.

the ball away from King, who was following in. Bournemouth showing

:34:06.:34:09.

great spirit, that's never been a problem here. Well, look at that for

:34:10.:34:11.

goalkeeping, safe as houses. Stanislas again, clearance. It's a

:34:12.:34:25.

corner again to Bournemouth. They've come close from a couple of these.

:34:26.:34:31.

Frist goes in again with Distin. -- Frist goes in again with Distin.

:34:32.:34:36.

Charlie Daniels is there. Everton defending stoutly again. Smith, oh,

:34:37.:34:42.

what a cracker! What a good goal from Adam Smith! That is a beauty.

:34:43.:34:51.

You won't see a better strike than that, and he's the substitute right

:34:52.:34:54.

back who has put Bournemouth back in the game. Wonderful shot by Smith.

:34:55.:35:01.

It comes out here quite some distance, 25 yards and he fires it

:35:02.:35:07.

in off the far post, Adam Smith. Only his second goal for

:35:08.:35:18.

Bournemouth, it's put them back in the game.

:35:19.:35:24.

Now then, King, Smith again. Oh, he's gone down. Gone down under the

:35:25.:35:36.

challenge from Galloway. The referee and linesman don't react. Well, I

:35:37.:35:40.

thought that that Smith was either going to do something dramatic

:35:41.:35:43.

again. I don't think Galloway could really get out of the way. Well, I

:35:44.:35:49.

don't know. It's not a nailed on penalty, that's for sure. This is

:35:50.:36:02.

Coney. -- Kone. Here is Murray, a free kick. The Bournemouth. Murray

:36:03.:36:06.

takes it quickly. This is King. Joss King. It's gone in! Stanislas who

:36:07.:36:18.

has equalised for Bournemouth in the most dramatic fashion. The 87th

:36:19.:36:27.

minute, Bournemouth seemed to have rescued the game when it seemed

:36:28.:36:33.

lost. This is Joss King, who makes it possible. It's a good run, a good

:36:34.:36:39.

pull-back, and Stanislas have got the better of the defender, and it

:36:40.:36:44.

is 2-2. Look at Eddie Howe, a birthday present.

:36:45.:36:49.

Come out to Barkley. It's Kone again. Last-minute, Coleman. It's

:36:50.:37:01.

gone in! Everton have scored are going. -- again. It's Ross Barkley.

:37:02.:37:10.

There are fans on the pitch. This is a bit dangerous. Everton have taken

:37:11.:37:18.

the lead, 3-2, and we were right on the 95 minutes. And Bournemouth seem

:37:19.:37:26.

to have lost it with the last attack of the game. And Barkley, who has

:37:27.:37:33.

been in such sparkling form for Everton recently, gets what must

:37:34.:37:38.

surely now be the winning goal. In one of the best games I've seen this

:37:39.:37:43.

season, if not the best. And poor Eddie Howe can only look miserably

:37:44.:37:48.

on, because this looks like being a real salvage job for Bournemouth,

:37:49.:37:52.

and it's turning out to be another home defeat. Well, the five minutes

:37:53.:37:58.

of stoppage time that was signals were more or less up when that shot

:37:59.:38:03.

hit the back of the net. And Bournemouth have a chance again

:38:04.:38:09.

here! It's their! It's Stanislas again! I don't believe this, it's

:38:10.:38:17.

3-3! And where that time came from I've no idea. But Bournemouth aren't

:38:18.:38:24.

complaining. Both teams have scored since the 90 minutes were up. And

:38:25.:38:29.

now it's 3-3. Stanislas, his second goal of the game. Breathless stuff

:38:30.:38:36.

here at Bournemouth. Tim Howard could do nothing about it. Well, an

:38:37.:38:43.

extraordinary match, one of the best Premier League games of the season,

:38:44.:38:45.

surely. Bournemouth three, Everton three.

:38:46.:38:52.

Have you ever been involved in a finish quite like that? No, I

:38:53.:38:57.

haven't. At half-time we were 2-0 down, to see them at the end there,

:38:58.:39:07.

to be fair I thought to myself we forced -- lost this, one of the lads

:39:08.:39:11.

asked the referee if it was over and he said yes, it's done, then next

:39:12.:39:14.

Stanislas came up with an equaliser. You can't write stories

:39:15.:39:16.

like this. It's an amazing game, an amazing feeling at the end. I

:39:17.:39:19.

thought the first half performance was exactly what we wanted and in

:39:20.:39:23.

the second half maybe we didn't do as well as we wanted to do but even

:39:24.:39:27.

then you need to show a resilient side of your play and we did that,

:39:28.:39:31.

then the personality of finding what should have been the winning goal,

:39:32.:39:35.

it was very pleasing. As you can imagine in the dressing room, it's a

:39:36.:39:39.

feeling of real disappointment and frustration because the concede that

:39:40.:39:43.

late in that manner is very hurtful. We robbing you need to focus on the

:39:44.:39:48.

last seconds of the game, I think, and we weren't. They scored the goal

:39:49.:39:53.

and then everybody is down, but like the manager said, after the game we

:39:54.:39:59.

need to learn from this game, but as long as the referee didn't blow the

:40:00.:40:05.

whistle we need to stay focused and try to defend the results and finish

:40:06.:40:11.

the game. After the game I spoke to the Bournemouth manager, Eddie Howe.

:40:12.:40:16.

That was some finale, you must have gone through a whole gamut of

:40:17.:40:19.

emotions there? It's unbelievable how football can play with your

:40:20.:40:23.

emotions. I've never felt so much despair when we conceded that third

:40:24.:40:27.

goal, and the scorer in the manner we did straight after with a great

:40:28.:40:31.

team goal was one of the biggest highs I've had in football. It's

:40:32.:40:34.

been an incredible day. I'm not sure how good your health it is, this

:40:35.:40:39.

football management game. You can say that again, it's no good for

:40:40.:40:42.

your health, I can tell you. The strains your brain and body go

:40:43.:40:45.

through when you are watching is extreme. I'll be having an early

:40:46.:40:49.

night tonight. You must have been delighted with the spirit your side

:40:50.:40:53.

showed today, coming from behind twice. I think the character we

:40:54.:40:57.

showed today was excellent. At 2-0 down with the season we've had, with

:40:58.:41:01.

the look that's gone against us, it would have been easy for the lads to

:41:02.:41:05.

be downhearted and lose their spirit but it shows the resolve, character

:41:06.:41:08.

and the willingness to improve and get better. That is the only thing

:41:09.:41:12.

that will give us a chance of moving forward in this league and

:41:13.:41:15.

continuing to pick up points in a tough season. You have talked about

:41:16.:41:19.

how we want to stick to the style of play that Bournemouth are playing.

:41:20.:41:23.

How do you evaluate the progress the side is making the Premier League? I

:41:24.:41:27.

feel we are improving week on week. We have had some difficult moments.

:41:28.:41:31.

We have had to learn from those and try and come back stronger and

:41:32.:41:35.

better for it. We are doing a lot of work on the training ground to keep

:41:36.:41:39.

improving our philosophy and develop our philosophy. And continue to make

:41:40.:41:43.

tweaks to deliver what we feel is a better way of training to the

:41:44.:41:46.

players. Ultimately the results will define the season. With the way we

:41:47.:41:51.

were playing, we wouldn't want to change, our supporters wouldn't want

:41:52.:41:55.

us to change and we will not go away from our ideals. We are enjoying

:41:56.:41:58.

your -- watching your side, entertaining stuff. Thanks again. A

:41:59.:42:04.

pleasure. It was a fabulously exciting game, it swung one way,

:42:05.:42:08.

then the other. They showed terrific spirit, Bournemouth, and I admire

:42:09.:42:12.

that they don't try to change because he's playing the right way

:42:13.:42:15.

for me. But I believe that Everton contributed hugely to Bournemouth

:42:16.:42:20.

getting back in the game. They played really well in the first

:42:21.:42:22.

half. getting back in the game. They

:42:23.:42:22.

played really well in the first half. Everybody was on the front

:42:23.:42:25.

foot, trying to press Bournemouth high because they knew they were

:42:26.:42:28.

going to play out and they did it really well and caused Bournemouth

:42:29.:42:31.

all sorts of problems. Winning the ball back nice and early, creating

:42:32.:42:34.

good attacks from it, Bournemouth trying to play their way out, Kone

:42:35.:42:39.

coming in off the left to help. They went hunting in packs and thoroughly

:42:40.:42:45.

deserved their 2-0 lead. It was a very good Everton performance and

:42:46.:42:48.

they continued from the performance against Villa last week. The second

:42:49.:42:51.

half was an incredible change. I don't know whether it was, I don't

:42:52.:42:56.

think it was deliberate, I think you know sometimes when you are winning

:42:57.:43:00.

in a football match you sit back and protect what you have got but it was

:43:01.:43:06.

so bad in comparison. It was lethargic. It gave Bournemouth the

:43:07.:43:10.

impetus to get back in the game, gave them confidence, because the

:43:11.:43:12.

players were having plenty of touches on the ball. Then they

:43:13.:43:17.

started making some chances, gaining momentum, and actually could have

:43:18.:43:20.

scored more than the three they did in the second half. It was only some

:43:21.:43:24.

good saves and last-ditch defending from Everton that stopped them. The

:43:25.:43:29.

disappointing thing was of course from Everton's point of view is that

:43:30.:43:33.

even after Bournemouth getting back to 2-2 and they got back in the

:43:34.:43:36.

lead, they conceded a game, but it was more than Bournemouth deserved.

:43:37.:43:40.

You can see here, there is in the tackle being made, the resident

:43:41.:43:43.

fouls being given. There's nothing. It was more than Bournemouth

:43:44.:43:46.

deserved. You can see here, there is in the tackle being made, the

:43:47.:43:48.

resident fouls being given. There's nothing. , physically they looked

:43:49.:43:50.

tired for some reason and there's no reason they should. As the

:43:51.:43:56.

Bournemouth, Danny says he likes the way he's stuck to his principles

:43:57.:44:00.

about the way they play. Do you concur? I have heard it being said

:44:01.:44:04.

that they should change their style of play, it's nonsense. No, they

:44:05.:44:09.

shouldn't change their style of play. They have lost three big

:44:10.:44:13.

players to injuries, particularly Callum Wilson who started the season

:44:14.:44:15.

in brilliant form, scoring goals. That's what they are missing. They

:44:16.:44:20.

have great spirit in the camp, 2-0 up last week, 2-0 down today and

came back into the game today. They will keep on going and play the same

:44:25.:44:29.

way and I hope it works for them. Four games coming your way on Match

into the final day. Jimmy Bullard has a chance here to

:45:12.:45:29.

score from the penalty spot with nine minutes to go. Bullard, 1-1.

:45:30.:45:42.

Oh, look at the celebration. Ha-ha. Jimmy Bullard does the Phil Brown.

:45:43.:45:46.

Well the ghosts of last year could be erased here. Talk about working

:45:47.:45:50.

on a set-piece on the training pitch. They've been working on this

:45:51.:45:51.

celebration. After back-to-back defeats against

:45:52.:45:56.

Liverpool and Juventus, Manchester City faced a Southampton side

:45:57.:46:02.

unbeaten on the road this season. Steve Bower was at the

:46:03.:46:04.

Etihad Stadium. Manchester City's attempts to get

:46:05.:46:11.

back on track must be done without injured goalkeeper Joe Hart. Willy

:46:12.:46:14.

Caballero plays his fourth game in the Premier League. His last one saw

:46:15.:46:17.

him concede four at Spurs. There is also as first start in any

:46:18.:46:21.

competition since his summer move from Aston Villa for Fabian Delph.

:46:22.:46:25.

One of the four Southampton changes is enforced. Top scorer, Pelle is

:46:26.:46:31.

suspended. The responsibility falls on Shane Long who starts a League

:46:32.:46:35.

game for just the fourth time this season. Here's the first touch on

:46:36.:46:42.

his full debut for the club for Delph. Kolarov has gone sprinting on

:46:43.:46:52.

ahead of him. Sterling. Can Manchester City have a fast start

:46:53.:46:56.

here? Lovely touch from Toure. Sterling. Stekelenburg went to pick

:46:57.:47:02.

that up, wasn't sure whether it would have been deemed a backpass.

:47:03.:47:09.

So he opted for safety first. Wonderful combination between Toure

:47:10.:47:12.

and Sterling. Well, very nearly a perfect start for Manchester City.

:47:13.:47:17.

Aguero. He was caught late there. Right in front of the referee, Roger

:47:18.:47:33.

East. No need to debate whether that was late or not. You would think

:47:34.:47:38.

this would be tailor made for the left foot of Kolarov. Here he comes

:47:39.:47:42.

the Serbian. Very nearly found a way through. It was the Manchester City

:47:43.:47:46.

players that ended up in the back of the net, not the ball. Stekelenburg

:47:47.:47:57.

just about recovered the situation. Aleksandar Kolarov was that close to

:47:58.:48:05.

number five. Jose Fonte. Yoshida has to play at right back today. He has

:48:06.:48:11.

lost out there to Sterling. Will he be punished by Manchester City?

:48:12.:48:16.

Sterling still going. They will. De Bruyne. It's taken them less than

:48:17.:48:21.

eight-and-a-half minutes to provide the reaction that Manuel Pellegrini

:48:22.:48:25.

was looking for. It's not a moment Yoshida will want to see again. Took

:48:26.:48:32.

too long. That was ultimately a Costly error. Credit Sterling. He

:48:33.:48:36.

just put it on a plate for De Bruyne. That is not the area to take

:48:37.:48:41.

on Raheem Sterling as far as the Japanese international is concerned.

:48:42.:48:45.

Sterling did the rest. De Bruyne couldn't miss. Perfect start for

:48:46.:48:49.

Manchester City after a troublesome week. City 1, Southampton 0. Trying

:48:50.:48:57.

to regroup. A shock to the system. They have given it away again.

:48:58.:49:05.

Trying to set up Aguero. Southampton just about survive, but they really

:49:06.:49:08.

are making things difficult for themselves in the early stages here.

:49:09.:49:13.

Romeu the latest to gift City possession. Stekelenburg rescued him

:49:14.:49:21.

there, in all honesty. Davis, De Bruyne. Early into the feet of

:49:22.:49:26.

Aguero. He's returned the favour. Sweeping move this from Manchester

:49:27.:49:33.

City. Aguero. They had to be careful there Southampton, about making the

:49:34.:49:36.

challenge. It arrived in the end from Fonte. That burst of pace from

:49:37.:49:43.

Sergio Aguero. Could have went to penalty. De Bruyne's cross. Free

:49:44.:49:50.

header. Well, it was really well kept out. Fernandinho thinks there

:49:51.:49:55.

was a use of a hand. Roger East, the referee, doesn't. All Manchester

:49:56.:49:58.

City get is a corner. Let's have a closer look. Totally unmarked to

:49:59.:50:04.

start with. Steven Davis was running the risk. Corner low. It's come back

:50:05.:50:13.

to Delph. Deflected for 2-0. Well, his full Manchester City debut has

:50:14.:50:18.

started pretty well we haven't played 20 minutes yet and Manchester

:50:19.:50:21.

City have a two goal cushion. That one aided by the huge deflection.

:50:22.:50:26.

They didn't deal with the corner, again. Delph struck it left-footed,

:50:27.:50:31.

a little touch off van Dijk which deceived Stekelenburg, who was going

:50:32.:50:34.

one way, the ball went the other. Everything is going Manchester

:50:35.:50:38.

City's way so far. Manchester City 2, Southampton 0.

:50:39.:50:44.

Van Dijk. Southampton in need of a response here. Romeu.

:50:45.:50:56.

Bertrand. Neatly done from van Dijk. That was a terrific strike. That

:50:57.:51:04.

crashed against the crossbar. Lovely little touch and turn as well.

:51:05.:51:11.

Caballero beaten all ends there. Ward-Prowse. Here's Mane. He's got

:51:12.:51:30.

options here, Mane, Tadic. Roger East waited a long time there for

:51:31.:51:34.

advantage. He didn't feel there was one forthcoming, so he's pulled it

:51:35.:51:39.

right back for the foul on Steven Davis by Kolarov. Quickly taken by

:51:40.:51:46.

Tadic. Good movement from Mane. Teasing cross as well. There's the

:51:47.:51:52.

goal. Shane Long, four minutes into the second-half, he gets one back

:51:53.:51:56.

for Southampton. Exactly what they needed. His third goal in four

:51:57.:52:04.

starts. It was all about the delivery from Mane. Quickly taken by

:52:05.:52:11.

Tadic. Then Shane Long did the rest. His second Premier League goal of

:52:12.:52:16.

the season. Above Demichelis. He gives Southampton some hope. City 2,

:52:17.:52:24.

Southampton 1. Once again, in his absence, no clean sheet for

:52:25.:52:25.

Manchester City. Wanyama. Tadic. He's gone alone. It's Tadic.

:52:26.:52:41.

Then Long. Manchester City survive. This is what Shane Long was

:52:42.:52:45.

appealing for, when it comes back to him. Watch Fernandinho. Does he use

:52:46.:52:57.

his hand? 25 minutes to go. Tadic. Might fancy a go here. Caballero

:52:58.:53:02.

couldn't hold it. Very nearly came to Long. Cleared by Kolarov. Again,

:53:03.:53:07.

a little unconvincing from Caballero's point of view. Almost

:53:08.:53:11.

pushed that right into the path of Shane Long. Bertrand. Now can

:53:12.:53:20.

Manchester City go forward. De Bruyne. Sterling against Yoshida.

:53:21.:53:29.

Sterling stepping inside. Bony. De Bruyne. Time

:53:30.:53:37.

Sterling stepping inside. Bony. De Kolarov. That's the end result.

:53:38.:53:40.

Against the run of play in this second-half, you have to say.

:53:41.:53:45.

Manchester City restore their two goal advantage. They took their

:53:46.:53:49.

time. It looked initially as if it was one pass too many. Then it came

:53:50.:53:56.

through to Kolarov. He swept in his second Premier League goal of the

:53:57.:54:00.

season. Midway through the second-half, Manchester City needed

:54:01.:54:05.

this. Kolarov provided it. Manchester City 3, Southampton 1. We

:54:06.:54:12.

started very, very strong, as you see, especially the first 25

:54:13.:54:15.

minutes. Maybe when we scored the second goal we stopped a little bit

:54:16.:54:19.

in our pace because it's normal the team playing so many games, this

:54:20.:54:27.

Southampton we had our worst minute because we were nervous. The third

:54:28.:54:32.

goal gave us the class to finish in a good way. 20 minutes in, with a

:54:33.:54:38.

deflection, your your first goal for Manchester City? A great feeling. A

:54:39.:54:43.

roller-coaster ride it has been with injuries that I've never had before.

:54:44.:54:49.

It felt sweet to get a goal today. The most important thing was to get

:54:50.:54:53.

three points and push forward. I thought we did that collectively.

:54:54.:54:59.

Very frustrated. It's maybe about focus, concentration at the start of

:55:00.:55:03.

the game. Maybe we dropped a little bit too much back. Our ball position

:55:04.:55:09.

was very poor you saw the difference in the second-half. Let's take the

:55:10.:55:14.

positives out of today and not in the first half, yes in the

:55:15.:55:18.

second-half. City back to inwithing ways, Alan. A few injuries,

:55:19.:55:20.

obviously. They have plenty of options going forward? Going

:55:21.:55:28.

forward, when you look at the bench today, Silva, Navas, Bony, no Nasri

:55:29.:55:31.

today. You spent over ?100 million in the summer on two big players you

:55:32.:55:34.

are looking for them to make a difference. Tight games. That was,

:55:35.:55:39.

without doubt, they did that today. This is in the first minute. Give

:55:40.:55:43.

and go from Sterling. Showing what he will do. Run in there. Run in

:55:44.:55:48.

behind and cause you problems. Yes, it's a mistake by Yoshida. Look at

:55:49.:55:52.

the determination from De Bruyne to get into the box. To get on the end

:55:53.:55:58.

of Sterling's's cross. Pel puts it on a plate for him. I mentioned the

:55:59.:56:03.

lack ever linkup play from Manchester United earlier. The

:56:04.:56:07.

difference between United and City going forward is so vast. It's

:56:08.:56:11.

unbelievable. Running in behind. This is where he has to improve, I

:56:12.:56:16.

think. He can push it to his left there, have a shot. Go at the

:56:17.:56:19.

far-post. The defenders is quite comfortable to let him, show him on

:56:20.:56:24.

his left line. He puts away the problem. Brilliant from De Bruyne.

:56:25.:56:30.

Not too much distance between these two. Linkup play very, very good

:56:31.:56:39.

indeed. It's a good goal. In to De Bruyne. Into Bony a brilliant ball

:56:40.:56:44.

at the far-post into Kolarov who smashes it away with that left foot

:56:45.:56:49.

of his. Pace, power between the both of them. It was great to watch, give

:56:50.:56:55.

and go again. This is just a dream ball. It should be stuck away from

:56:56.:56:59.

Bony. What a ball that is. They were the threat all afternoon. They made

:57:00.:57:03.

the difference. Having said that, Manchester City got off to a flying

:57:04.:57:07.

start. Southampton were all at sea early on. Second-half they came

:57:08.:57:11.

back. Gave them a scare, as Pellegrini admitted They did. He

:57:12.:57:17.

made a substitution that brought Tadic on, that helped them. They had

:57:18.:57:20.

a mountain to climb. When they started the game too many players

:57:21.:57:25.

were in awe of the players they were up against. 2-0 down after 20

:57:26.:57:29.

minutes a long way back. A long way back from there.

:57:30.:57:35.

Aston Villa need to make Premier League history

:57:36.:57:37.

No team has stayed up after taking just five points

:57:38.:57:41.

Remi Garde's men faced a Watford side beaten in the last minute

:57:42.:57:45.

The numbers don't lie or add up to much for Villa. They come into game

:57:46.:57:52.

in a darker mood than Watford, they have lost their last two, only

:57:53.:57:55.

narrowly and to the current top two teams in the lad. There wasn't much

:57:56.:58:01.

to please the manager last week. Sanchez was good enough to earn him

:58:02.:58:05.

a recall to the starting line-up today. Watford, there is a first

:58:06.:58:16.

ever Premier League start for Paredes and Deeney, a Villa junior,

:58:17.:58:22.

but a Birmingham fan. Sanchez has headed it the wrong way. To Deeney.

:58:23.:58:28.

Deeney pops it through to Ighalo. Blocked by the chest of Guzan.

:58:29.:58:34.

Here's Abdi. What did that hit? Richardson was close. It's bounced

:58:35.:58:40.

for Ighalo. Ighalo has put it in. Villa appeal for offside. The flag

:58:41.:58:45.

stayed down. It's advantage Watford. Any number of incidents here. That

:58:46.:58:49.

was brilliant work from Ighalo. The shot was straight at Guzan. Then a

:58:50.:58:57.

block from Richardson. A good interception from Paredes. Let's see

:58:58.:59:02.

where Ighalo was when Ben Watson struck this towards goal? Villa had

:59:03.:59:08.

their arms in the air. When Watson hit it, Ighalo was onside. You would

:59:09.:59:12.

think for the next few minutes Villa have to make sure they don't have to

:59:13.:59:19.

go further behind hood. -- behind. Will they, forward-thinking from

:59:20.:59:22.

Hutton. Here's Sinclair. Villa, corner.

:59:23.:59:32.

Abdi got to it. The ball is kept moving by Gil. Here is Veretout, a

:59:33.:59:44.

couple of deflections and wide of the post from Ayew. A huge chance.

:59:45.:59:50.

He had to take it when he did, instinctively quickly. As he

:59:51.:59:53.

swivelled and here he got his angle wrong, he hit it into the deck with

:59:54.:00:00.

Gomes well beaten. Abdi, a lovely turn. Deeney, trying to set himself

:00:01.:00:06.

up to shoot. It was Sanchez with the block. Sanchez loses the ball to

:00:07.:00:10.

Deeney. Deeney plays it through the Capoue. A vital. From Guzan. -- a

:00:11.:00:17.

vital stop from Guzan. That might prove to be a really important block

:00:18.:00:21.

from Guzan. It nearly got through his legs, you know, very nearly.

:00:22.:00:29.

Sinclair moves away from Paredes. Skips past Watson. Saved by Gomes,

:00:30.:00:39.

it was flying in from Sinclair. Aston Villa need more of that from

:00:40.:00:41.

him. That was goal bound. Faced by Ake, and Aston Villa

:00:42.:00:57.

corner. He has to carry out some running boot repairs.

:00:58.:01:02.

Fired in flat this time and he can't quite stretch enough. It was Ayew

:01:03.:01:11.

who got it across the back post. A nice touch. Clark had to change the

:01:12.:01:13.

direction of his run. Alan Hutton down, a free. It's not

:01:14.:01:27.

stretching it much to say Alan Hutton has been Villa's best

:01:28.:01:32.

attacking threat. Just a bump and a barge from Ben Watson. Bottom of the

:01:33.:01:38.

league, only five points from 13 games, and yet listened to that.

:01:39.:01:40.

They are willing the ball into the net. It Veretout, delivered the

:01:41.:01:52.

Richards. -- delivered to Richards. Aston Villa's captain scores his

:01:53.:01:56.

first ever Aston Villa goal. What mood changer and what a stroke of

:01:57.:02:01.

luck for Aston Villa. It as though when the ball is struck, Richards is

:02:02.:02:06.

just offside. No matter, it counts, and it's a huge goal for Remi

:02:07.:02:15.

Garde's team. Aston Villa one, Watford one. Now we get some emotion

:02:16.:02:24.

from the French man. Trying to tease one away from Gomes. Here is Gil.

:02:25.:02:30.

Couldn't look up, couldn't get the ball away to shoot. Gomes has a

:02:31.:02:36.

problem. Waving frantically to the referee Lee Mason for some

:02:37.:02:40.

assistance. Play will stop. There has been a clattering from Cathcart.

:02:41.:02:45.

It's the left leg that makes strongest contact, right on the top

:02:46.:02:50.

of the Brazilian keeper's head. These are worrying scenes. Its

:02:51.:02:58.

expert medical care that is needed for Gomes, who was in no doubt

:02:59.:03:02.

straightaway that he had a real problem. It's good to see that he

:03:03.:03:08.

was never out, but there can be no chances taken at all. We do of

:03:09.:03:12.

course wish only the very Best of Heurelho Gomes, let's hope that he

:03:13.:03:17.

is up and fighting fit as soon as possible and that the medical staff

:03:18.:03:18.

are just being ultra-careful. Who will settle into a better rhythm

:03:19.:03:26.

most quickly, after such a delay? Watson finds Deeney. Deeney, through

:03:27.:03:45.

to Ighalo, and it's then. I think that might be an own goal. It's in

:03:46.:03:52.

Guzan's goal. And Watford have a 2-1 lead at Villa Park. Watson to Deeney

:03:53.:04:00.

Ighalo onside, but it didn't look as though he got a touch. No, it's Alan

:04:01.:04:06.

Hutton on the stretch. Button with the Pope passed Guzan. Once again,

:04:07.:04:10.

it's a fair summation in one flick of the ball of how Aston Villa's

:04:11.:04:15.

luck goes. He might just have condemned them to another defeat. A

:04:16.:04:19.

lot for Remi Garde to think about. Hutton has given it the Ake. Bounces

:04:20.:04:35.

to Ighalo. Richards stops the shot and incomes Troy Deeney to do what

:04:36.:04:41.

he wanted to do, score against Villa at the Holte End. Three goals for

:04:42.:04:45.

Watford and it should mean three points for Watford. Villa couldn't

:04:46.:04:48.

get it away. They tried and tried and failed. Ighalo was given the

:04:49.:04:59.

time to shoot. It bounces off Richards and its Deeney who jumps

:05:00.:05:04.

above home. Started out at Aston Villa, was deemed not good enough to

:05:05.:05:08.

make the grade with them. Was always a Birmingham fan, and he's waited a

:05:09.:05:13.

long time for that moment in his career and it's put Watford and Kike

:05:14.:05:16.

Sola chess Flores in charge of this game.

:05:17.:05:23.

Given a bit of room in the Watford box, and he has scored. That was

:05:24.:05:43.

smashed in by Ayew. A bit of anger and intent in that. Watford guilty

:05:44.:05:49.

of being a little too casual and standing off defensively here. Look

:05:50.:05:53.

at the time Ayew had. Brilliantly finished. Aston Villa two, Watford

:05:54.:05:59.

three. I think the performance of the players was amazing. They played

:06:00.:06:02.

really well, they made and had pressure even we had more, so we

:06:03.:06:08.

scored three goals and we're happy. Troy, you said I think this tongue

:06:09.:06:13.

in cheek you wanted to make the Holte End swear at you. Did they?

:06:14.:06:18.

Yes, they did from the warm up, to be fair. I expected it. This is my

:06:19.:06:23.

city, this is where I'm from and I expected it. If we didn't score and

:06:24.:06:30.

we lost I'm sure we'd have a weekend of it and it's my turn to give it.

:06:31.:06:35.

It's difficult, I thought we deserved a better result. We never

:06:36.:06:41.

had the chance to lead in that game and we had always to run behind the

:06:42.:06:44.

score and it was difficult for the players to have this confidence. I

:06:45.:06:50.

think that we defended quite poorly and then, when you concede so many

:06:51.:06:56.

goals is difficult to gain some point. Indeed. I know the -- another

:06:57.:07:02.

fabulous day for Watford, and vomitus day for Villa. yes, -- a

:07:03.:07:09.

calamitous day. Villa are gifting goals away and a lot of the words we

:07:10.:07:14.

use to describe Newcastle could be used to describe their defending.

:07:15.:07:18.

It's really basic stuff. They are scruffy goals

:07:19.:07:19.

It's really basic stuff. They are scruffy goals they are conceding. I

:07:20.:07:23.

mean they have chances, this is all too easy, Richards slips may be,

:07:24.:07:26.

give him the benefit of the doubt, but they have a chance to clear it

:07:27.:07:31.

here, he missed kicks it and deflects. They could say it's a bit

:07:32.:07:36.

of bad luck. For me, it's scruffy, it's bad defending. They looked

:07:37.:07:39.

disorganised. They don't look difficult to beat and breakdown. We

:07:40.:07:42.

were talking about how they were going to score goals, today, they

:07:43.:07:48.

created chances but this is a bit of misfortune for Hatton. But it's all

:07:49.:07:51.

a bit last-ditch. They don't look solid. They look easy to play

:07:52.:07:56.

against. The only positive for Villa today was the chances they created.

:07:57.:08:00.

Credit Watford, they played some good stuff at times, and is a

:08:01.:08:05.

mistake from Hutton. This finish from Deeney is tremendous, because

:08:06.:08:10.

his desire to win that above the centre-half says a lot. He should be

:08:11.:08:14.

dying for the course there, Clark. You maybe doesn't see it coming but

:08:15.:08:18.

you have to get up, you know someone will try to get on the end of it.

:08:19.:08:22.

Although Watford were great, Villa were certainly guilty of helping

:08:23.:08:28.

them. Watford, mid-table, 19 points, three away wins, remarkable when you

:09:16.:09:21.

A precious winner for Sunderland. Is a valuable three points for us. It's

:09:22.:09:26.

the start of a plan and it's come off here tonight for them.

:09:27.:09:30.

Your commentator at the Stadium of Light was Martin Fisher.

:09:31.:09:37.

Jermain Defoe has shaken off a foot injury and makes his first start at

:09:38.:09:44.

the Stadium Of Light in 11 weeks. Yedlin replaces the suspended Billy

:09:45.:09:47.

Jones. Another clean sheet on the road for Jack Butland would see him

equally club record set by Gordon Banks Way back in 1970. The visitors

:09:52.:09:57.

are unchanged for the third game in a row. Cabu -- Kaboul looking for a

:09:58.:10:14.

shave. Larsson and Defoe again. Away from Bojan, Defoe fans of that. Just

:10:15.:10:21.

wide. -- Defoe fancies it. That's why Sunderland fans want him

:10:22.:10:25.

starting every week. Comes alive in and around the penalty area.

:10:26.:10:31.

Arnautovic, Peters is to his left. Looking for Walters, what a save.

:10:32.:10:36.

Pantilimon. The best chance by some distance that Stoke City have

:10:37.:10:41.

fashioned so far, and but for Pantilimon they would have brought

:10:42.:10:45.

them the opening goal of the game. Applause all around the Stadium Of

:10:46.:10:49.

Light, not for that saves specifically, but in memory of

:10:50.:10:52.

Sunderland's former goalkeeper Marton Fulop, who sadly passed away

:10:53.:10:58.

earlier in the month. Just the one home victory for Sunderland so far

:10:59.:11:03.

this season. What a victory that 3-0 demolition of Newcastle. They need

:11:04.:11:07.

to start picking up points regularly in front of their own supporters.

:11:08.:11:11.

That's a nice touch from Watmore. Fletcher takes over, Shawcross

:11:12.:11:14.

brings him down and it's a yellow card for the Stoke City captain.

:11:15.:11:18.

There will be Sunderland fans that will have wanted further punishment

:11:19.:11:22.

for Shawcross, but there were plenty of other defenders back there. Does

:11:23.:11:26.

it favour the left foot, all right? It's going to be Van Aanholt, with

:11:27.:11:29.

the left, and the wall stands firm. He hit it and hoped there. Watmore

:11:30.:11:41.

has done well to win a free kick off Shawcross. Remember, Shawcross was

:11:42.:11:45.

booked in the first half and Ryan Shawcross sees yellow for the second

:11:46.:11:49.

time today, and Ryan Shawcross is sent off. What a blow this is the

:11:50.:11:56.

shot -- the Stoke City. It's a nothing ball but Watmore was after

:11:57.:12:00.

it, got ahead to Shawcross, who was caught flat-footed. Did Ryan

:12:01.:12:03.

Shawcross get the first touch, ordered Watmore? -- ordered

:12:04.:12:12.

Watmore? The referee was well positioned, he saw it as a yellow.

:12:13.:12:18.

Shawcross has gone. M'Vila takes, it will drop the Larsson, a bit of a

:12:19.:12:22.

waste. Sunderland on top at the moment in this one. Stoke, who

:12:23.:12:27.

started on the front foot, have gradually lost their rhythm. A

:12:28.:12:35.

little drop the Fletcher. Down for Lens. It's a lovely ball. It's well

:12:36.:12:42.

saved by Butland and M'Vila denied. Butland might be in for a peppering

:12:43.:12:48.

from here on in and it's clumsy from Pieters. Stoke losing a bit of their

:12:49.:12:52.

discipline at the moment. M'Vila with the free kick. Cabu land O Shea

:12:53.:12:58.

are in there, along with the likes of Fletcher and it's turned behind.

:12:59.:13:04.

Sunderland will get another corner. M'Vila pulse this one short.

:13:05.:13:13.

Stoke can't rebuff the pressure. Good work from quarters. Lens digs

:13:14.:13:23.

out a great cross, what a save from Butland. That's why this fellow has

:13:24.:13:27.

waited so -- has been rated so highly.

:13:28.:13:32.

Add. Hope, given away to Cattermole. Here is Watmore. Johnson, that's a

:13:33.:13:53.

foul by Pieters. Johnson, who will touch it on and it's struck by Van

:13:54.:13:57.

Aanholt will stop it's there. His first-ever Premier League goal. What

:13:58.:14:02.

an important one it might prove to be. Everybody thought Johnson would

:14:03.:14:13.

comb -- coal woman but it's back to Van Aanholt, who rifles one in.

:14:14.:14:17.

Stoke were slow to close him down. It's a bullet of a shot and

:14:18.:14:23.

Sunderland take the lead. Today, Sunderland have looked like a team.

:14:24.:14:31.

They have good shape, they have been difficult to break down.

:14:32.:14:39.

Has to go alone here. And scores! Well, if one player deserved a goal

:14:40.:14:50.

today, it is Duncan Watmore. Next week he receives his degree from

:14:51.:14:57.

Newcastle University. Today, the joy is that of a goalscorer. What a

:14:58.:15:04.

confident finish it was. Now, surely that goal settles the game and gives

:15:05.:15:09.

Sunderland three massive points. Sunderland 2, Stoke City 0.

:15:10.:15:11.

Sunderland three massive points. Sunderland 2, Stoke City 0. When

:15:12.:15:16.

Stoke went down to 10-men and it's not very easy to beat 10-men. They

:15:17.:15:21.

then have to just try and hang on to what they have got and see if they

:15:22.:15:26.

can maybe catch us on the break. We had to be patient. That patience in

:15:27.:15:32.

the end paid off by the fact we produced outstanding quality when we

:15:33.:15:34.

needed it. When you have on the bench have you to be ready at any

:15:35.:15:38.

time. You can't expect to come on in the second-half. Jay was struggling.

:15:39.:15:42.

Is with delighted to get on and make an impact. I got through and

:15:43.:15:46.

thought, there is only one place this is going and hit it as hard as

:15:47.:15:50.

I can low in the corner. Thankfully it came off. We weren't quite at it

:15:51.:15:54.

in the first half. I thought we could have made more use of good

:15:55.:15:57.

opportunities that we had. Didn't move the ball quick enough, in my

:15:58.:16:02.

view. Ryan feels he got a touch on Nick on the ball before hand. The

:16:03.:16:06.

lad maybe has gone down a little bit easy on it. Referee needs to be in a

:16:07.:16:11.

good position and the linesman needs to help him. The linesman I think

:16:12.:16:15.

has given it more than the referee. Tell us about the other celebration

:16:16.:16:21.

coming your way next month? I have my graduation from Newcastle

:16:22.:16:24.

University for my economics degree. I will be gowning up for that. That

:16:25.:16:28.

should be interesting. First-class degree. Most footballers have those,

:16:29.:16:34.

obviously! Goes without saying. He made a difference didn't he? He did.

:16:35.:16:40.

After Jermaine coming off. You think, this is a negative for

:16:41.:16:44.

Sunderland. What happened he took the opportunity brilliantly. It was

:16:45.:16:49.

a great goal from him. His energy and enthusiasm is infectious. The

:16:50.:16:52.

supporters love that. They have taken to him. Really pleased for him

:16:53.:16:58.

a great start. Made a real difference. From Stoke's

:16:59.:17:02.

perspective. Shawcross's red card was a huge turning point? A turning

:17:03.:17:06.

point without doubt. He didn't get punished for that one. He would have

:17:07.:17:10.

if he went down. You can see what Sam thinks about that. He rightly

:17:11.:17:14.

gets a yellow card for this one against Fletcher. Leaves his foot

:17:15.:17:17.

there. No complaints whatsoever from him much you can see. That takes him

:17:18.:17:21.

out deliberately much I don't think this next one is a yellow card at

:17:22.:17:25.

all. I think not every foul is a yellow card. He takes the ball

:17:26.:17:29.

there. Look. There you go. That is why the ball went in that direction.

:17:30.:17:33.

Shawcross tackles him. I didn't think it was a yellow card. Sam is

:17:34.:17:37.

doing well with Sunderland, as you might expect? Do you have to remind

:17:38.:17:41.

me, Gary heaven is doing a fantastic job. Made for that job. OK. You are

:17:42.:17:47.

reluctant, aren't you? OK, we will move on. We are out of time. Thank

:17:48.:17:50.

you very much anyway. Before we leave you, a look at the Barclays
