After another depressing week for English football we needed | :00:45. | :00:46. | |
something to lift the spirits and the Premier League | :00:47. | :00:48. | |
Six games on the way for tonight's two-ball | :00:49. | :00:51. | |
We start at the Liberty Stadium where Swansea, who've not won | :00:52. | :00:57. | |
since the opening day of the season, faced an in-form Liverpool side | :00:58. | :01:00. | |
Commentary comes from Simon Brotherton. | :01:01. | :01:12. | |
Swansea haven't won at home in the league since the last time they | :01:13. | :01:18. | |
hosted Liverpool, in May. Jurgen Klopp's side words preoccupied | :01:19. | :01:22. | |
against the game with Villa Real. Now they have a laser-like focus on | :01:23. | :01:28. | |
the league. There's one change for the home team today, with Llorente | :01:29. | :01:32. | |
missing the match because of a rib injury. Borja Baston, a summer | :01:33. | :01:39. | |
arrival from Atletico Madrid, makes his first Premier League start. | :01:40. | :01:42. | |
Fernandes is not written it enough to return, so Mike van der Hoorn | :01:43. | :01:48. | |
continues alongside Amat in. Lovren returns for Liverpool after missing | :01:49. | :01:53. | |
last week's win over Hull with a virus. Loris Karius keeps his place | :01:54. | :01:59. | |
in the goal up week after breaking his area league debut. Origi is | :02:00. | :02:04. | |
named in the substitutes after recovering from a foot injury. | :02:05. | :02:07. | |
Swansea City with just one point from nine at home so far, that point | :02:08. | :02:12. | |
accrued in a 2-2 draw with Chelsea. They've lost a couple at home | :02:13. | :02:18. | |
already. Routledge River Tawe space to run into. Rangel on the outside | :02:19. | :02:26. | |
if required. Over the top of the bar, the first chance of the game | :02:27. | :02:34. | |
falls to Swansea. It was a good one. It could not be guided in past | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
carriers. An excellent -- past Karius. An excellent chance for | :02:40. | :02:47. | |
Borja Baston. Swansea computing here. Now Sigurdsson forward, the | :02:48. | :02:53. | |
flag stays down. Borja Baston racing through. Sigurdsson is inside the | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
penalty area but suddenly found himself surrounded, as redshirts | :02:58. | :03:00. | |
came piling back into the box. Promising from Swansea, just about | :03:01. | :03:02. | |
onside. Karius stays on his line. It's in, | :03:03. | :03:16. | |
over the line by Leroy Fer. Swansea City have the lead after seven | :03:17. | :03:20. | |
minutes. Just the start they needed. The pressure is really on. They | :03:21. | :03:25. | |
haven't won since the opening day and what a confidence booster this | :03:26. | :03:31. | |
could be. The ball headed back in at the far post, flicked into what is | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
Leroy Fer, who added the finishing touch. It was a tight one. I think | :03:36. | :03:39. | |
he's just about onside as the ball comes over. It may have deflected | :03:40. | :03:45. | |
off Lovren anyway. Another game goes by in which Liverpool have failed to | :03:46. | :03:48. | |
keep a clean sheet. They haven't managed one at all so far in the | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
Premier League this season. It hasn't mattered with the number of | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
goals they've scored. Lallana has taken aback, stayed on the ground. | :03:56. | :04:01. | |
-- has taken a hit, stayed on the ground. A hit on the leg. Lallana | :04:02. | :04:12. | |
may have to come off, it would seem. Forward by Milner, straight onto | :04:13. | :04:18. | |
Jordi Amat's had. That will be a free kick for a foul by Henderson. I | :04:19. | :04:24. | |
should think he will go into the book. First yellow card of the game. | :04:25. | :04:29. | |
Liverpool not really enjoying this first half. Gylfi Sigurdsson with | :04:30. | :04:34. | |
the pixel Swansea. Was another chance to make it to and Borja, with | :04:35. | :04:42. | |
his second heading opportunity of the game can't find the back of the | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
net. Steve Kaplan and Jason Irving, the owners of Swansea City, here to | :04:48. | :04:52. | |
watch the match today. I'm sure happy with the start made by the | :04:53. | :04:57. | |
team. There's the man who wasn't -- whose side haven't won since the | :04:58. | :05:04. | |
opening day against Burnley. I delivery into Firmino, this is | :05:05. | :05:10. | |
Sturridge, no penalty and a free kick for Swansea City. There will be | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
a booking for simulation for Daniel Sturridge, from Mike Oliver. | :05:16. | :05:19. | |
Sturridge bursting into the box, felt that touch on his chest from | :05:20. | :05:24. | |
the Swansea defender. It wasn't a heavy touch, but there was a touch. | :05:25. | :05:32. | |
Mike Oliver saying, no, he will be disappointed to see his team hasn't | :05:33. | :05:36. | |
had a shot on target in the first half. Firmino, away from Britton and | :05:37. | :05:41. | |
Fabianski team required to make a decent save for the first time in | :05:42. | :05:47. | |
the game. Certainly -- the crowd is getting behind the home team, a | :05:48. | :05:50. | |
tremendous atmosphere inside the Liberty. Mane for Liverpool, gets a | :05:51. | :05:58. | |
free kick for the challenge by Leon Brittan. He will be booked by the | :05:59. | :06:08. | |
referee. Mane is on the wall, Coutinho that's the ball straight | :06:09. | :06:14. | |
into the middle of it. Bacchin by Henderson, Firmino, Liverpool level | :06:15. | :06:19. | |
at 1-1. Swansea's defenders are across at the far side, there's no | :06:20. | :06:23. | |
flag. Firmino celebrates. Liverpool are back in the game. Nine minutes | :06:24. | :06:28. | |
into the second half. As the ball comes in, he's onside. Initially the | :06:29. | :06:33. | |
wall does its job, it deflects back out off Leroy Fer. Roberto Firmino | :06:34. | :06:39. | |
is there Liverpool. To score his fourth goal of the season. Liverpool | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
have taken less than ten minutes in the second half to come right back | :06:45. | :06:53. | |
in it. Liverpool's tales are up. Nathaniel Clyne, Wijnaldum going | :06:54. | :06:56. | |
racing through the middle but looks frustrated the ball didn't come. | :06:57. | :07:00. | |
It's still with Liverpool now. Mane in towards Sturridge. | :07:01. | :07:05. | |
Coutinho. Suddenly, Swansea City are creaking and on the ropes. Much, | :07:06. | :07:17. | |
much better from Liverpool. Coutinho combining with Wijnaldum and not far | :07:18. | :07:23. | |
away from finding the corner of the net. He is looking a lot happier | :07:24. | :07:30. | |
since the break. And no wonder. Suddenly, wave after wave of | :07:31. | :07:34. | |
red-shirted attacks bearing down on the Swansea penalty area. Van der | :07:35. | :07:40. | |
Hoorn challenge, no foul, it's James Milner, Bacchin Tomane and the block | :07:41. | :07:46. | |
is made by Kyle Naughton. -- back into Mane. The referee had a great | :07:47. | :07:54. | |
view, waving play on, and Mane going for gold, sees the ball ricocheting | :07:55. | :07:56. | |
and deflecting over the top. Just hangs in the air, doesn't quite | :07:57. | :08:13. | |
land on Firmino's head. Well, hooked up high in the air but no breast -- | :08:14. | :08:19. | |
no distance at all by Barrow. Firmino tries the shot. The referee | :08:20. | :08:23. | |
gives Liverpool penalty. What frustration for Swansea City. Rangel | :08:24. | :08:28. | |
with a challenge on Firmino, here it is. Firmino down, as he felt | :08:29. | :08:33. | |
Rangel's arms touch the back of his shirt. Liverpool now with a glorious | :08:34. | :08:40. | |
opportunity to take the lead and James Milner will try and give | :08:41. | :08:42. | |
Liverpool the lead here. That's precisely what he does. That could | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
be a hammer blow for Swansea City today. In the 84th minute of the | :08:48. | :08:56. | |
game, an excellent penalty from Milner. Liverpool lead for the first | :08:57. | :09:00. | |
time today and they have just over five minutes to hang onto it. | :09:01. | :09:10. | |
Swansea City, have they got a final flourish in them to rescue | :09:11. | :09:14. | |
something, or will Sturridge budget beyond reach? He can't. Coutinho | :09:15. | :09:19. | |
brings a save from Fabianski you. Van der Hoorn can't get the ball | :09:20. | :09:23. | |
away. Mike van der Hoorn finally does clear, up towards Barrow, but | :09:24. | :09:27. | |
there hasn't really been a threat from Swansea since half-time in this | :09:28. | :09:35. | |
game. Rangel with a delivery. Van der Hoorn can't turn it home. What a | :09:36. | :09:42. | |
chance, right at the last moment of the game. Mike van der Hoorn, up | :09:43. | :09:46. | |
from the back and a clear view of goal, and Swansea's last opportunity | :09:47. | :09:52. | |
at salvaging a point has surely gone, now. We need a good result but | :09:53. | :09:59. | |
this is not a good period for us. The performance was good. My players | :10:00. | :10:07. | |
gave me an answer of character and qualities in the first half, | :10:08. | :10:12. | |
perfect, spot on, I think. The resort -- the right result would | :10:13. | :10:16. | |
have been a draw. Did you feel any pressure coming into the game | :10:17. | :10:19. | |
because of recent results? There's a lot of talk about the manager and | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
his future? I think we showed today that we are behind our coach. We | :10:25. | :10:29. | |
want to win for our coach. We didn't. I thought we could have done | :10:30. | :10:35. | |
better in the first half, I know we could have done better. Our build-up | :10:36. | :10:47. | |
was static, so it was easy, so we forced a reaction in the second | :10:48. | :10:53. | |
half. The we got the job done but we can't do that every week because we | :10:54. | :10:56. | |
will be punished and it will be difficult to get back in the game. | :10:57. | :11:00. | |
You had a penalty kick, James Milner is a cool customer to have, it | :11:01. | :11:06. | |
seems. I've no idea, I didn't see it! I trust you will be watching | :11:07. | :11:13. | |
tonight, Jurgen! Distinctive halves, I have to say. Very different. | :11:14. | :11:17. | |
Swansea in the first half, pretty dominant really. They were dominant. | :11:18. | :11:22. | |
They deserved their 1-0 lead. You can't accuse the Swansea players of | :11:23. | :11:26. | |
not working for their manager, who is obviously under pressure. But | :11:27. | :11:29. | |
Swansea did to Liverpool what Liverpool have been doing to most | :11:30. | :11:32. | |
teams this season. They actually pressed them high they worked very | :11:33. | :11:39. | |
hard, and they forced Liverpool into mistakes. They basically stopped | :11:40. | :11:45. | |
them playing and didn't allow them to get their football game going. | :11:46. | :11:51. | |
They didn't go in one, so they were passed off. They went as a group and | :11:52. | :11:56. | |
hunted in a pack and won the ball high up the pitch. A decent effort | :11:57. | :12:01. | |
from Herb -- from Fer, who did very well. The middle of the park, | :12:02. | :12:08. | |
they're all working for the manager, forcing the wall back to the | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
goalkeeper and just not letting them play at all. For that first half | :12:12. | :12:13. | |
they were brilliant, deserved their 1-0 at half-time. There could have | :12:14. | :12:18. | |
been some more. By contrast, the second half is very much belonged to | :12:19. | :12:23. | |
Liverpool? It did, as good a Swansea were in the first half I thought | :12:24. | :12:26. | |
Liverpool were poor. Their attitude and approach to the game, I don't | :12:27. | :12:30. | |
think Jurgen Klopp would have been happy with that and there would have | :12:31. | :12:33. | |
been harsh words said at half-time. You can almost tell there was | :12:34. | :12:36. | |
because the reaction from the players in the second half was | :12:37. | :12:40. | |
completely brilliant. That's what you want from your players. Use all | :12:41. | :12:44. | |
their the clip of them hunting impacts to get the ball back, | :12:45. | :12:50. | |
players making runs now, reactions to get the ball back as soon as | :12:51. | :12:54. | |
possible. Milner was influential, involved in a lot of very good play | :12:55. | :12:58. | |
in that second half, not giving up on anything, making sure he was put | :12:59. | :13:02. | |
in -- putting the Swansea players under a lot of pressure all the | :13:03. | :13:06. | |
time. When you do that, you tend to create chances. Players were | :13:07. | :13:09. | |
releasing themselves from positions and then you can break from these | :13:10. | :13:14. | |
deep deeper positions. Liverpool in the second half were very dominant. | :13:15. | :13:19. | |
Time and time again players released themselves, Swansea just tired I | :13:20. | :13:27. | |
felt. They caught them on the ball, sorry, on a number of occasions, | :13:28. | :13:30. | |
where they could have put them to bed. They did deserve their 2-1 in | :13:31. | :13:35. | |
the end. It was that first half display was not so good. It | :13:36. | :13:39. | |
certainly wasn't. I suppose if Liverpool are to be title contenders | :13:40. | :13:42. | |
they are going to have to work on their defending set pieces because | :13:43. | :13:47. | |
they are letting a few in? Yes, they are. The third goal this season | :13:48. | :13:51. | |
they've conceded from a set piece and they've conceded too many, also | :13:52. | :13:57. | |
from normal play. You've got three guys marking, Henderson, Wijnaldum | :13:58. | :14:01. | |
and Milner. The rest are zonal marking. Henderson is on Fer, the | :14:02. | :14:06. | |
eventual goal-scorer. He is marking him, his man. When that ball comes | :14:07. | :14:10. | |
in, he's got to stick with him. If he drops to Fer he's still got a | :14:11. | :14:16. | |
free header. Henderson has already lost. But when the ball goes over | :14:17. | :14:21. | |
your head you can't just switch off say that's my job done now because | :14:22. | :14:25. | |
it hasn't gone to my marker. You have to engage again and find out | :14:26. | :14:29. | |
where your money is. Henderson is six or seven yards off Fer, they | :14:30. | :14:33. | |
lose their head at the far post and it is a tap in from yard out. That | :14:34. | :14:38. | |
is just switching off and thinking someone else will do the rest for | :14:39. | :14:42. | |
me. That's not the case. You've got to stay alive and stay alert when | :14:43. | :14:45. | |
the ball goes over your head. Engage and see where it goes. Can they | :14:46. | :14:49. | |
contend? I think so. Agree? Yes. After picking up just one point | :14:50. | :14:56. | |
from their last three games, Chelsea were in action at Hull, | :14:57. | :14:58. | |
who've picked up just one point Those defeats at Arsenal and against | :14:59. | :15:11. | |
Liverpool poured cold water on early talk of Chelsea being fit for a | :15:12. | :15:15. | |
title challenge this season. They need to regroup, and maybe Hull | :15:16. | :15:19. | |
provide ideal opposition, they have only won four of 44 meetings between | :15:20. | :15:24. | |
the clubs. Hull's lightning start of the season is a distant memory. Mike | :15:25. | :15:29. | |
Phelan makes three changes, Elmohamady is suspended after his | :15:30. | :15:32. | |
red card at Anfield last week. David Meyler comes into right back. | :15:33. | :15:37. | |
Henriksen and Mbokani make their first starts. Huddlestone and | :15:38. | :15:41. | |
Hernandez make way. Antonio Conte has dropped Ivanovic and Fabregas | :15:42. | :15:46. | |
today with Marcos Alonso coming in at left back. Four years after | :15:47. | :15:51. | |
signing for Chelsea, Victor Moses makes his full Premier League debut | :15:52. | :15:58. | |
for the club. Before kick-off, a minute's applause to mark the sad | :15:59. | :16:09. | |
passing of a 13-year-old fan, Megan Pratt, who was going to be mascot | :16:10. | :16:12. | |
today but died on Thursday after a brave battle with illness. | :16:13. | :16:17. | |
Jake Livermore able to shake off Hazard. The Hull Golden Boy at the | :16:18. | :16:24. | |
moment, Robert Snodgrass with four goals already this season. Useful | :16:25. | :16:28. | |
dummy and Mbokani goes down under David Luiz. | :16:29. | :16:34. | |
Clumsy challenge from the Brazilian. Ideal territory for Robert | :16:35. | :16:42. | |
Snodgrass. Scored a wonderful free kick against Burnley to rescue a | :16:43. | :16:48. | |
point not so long ago. Takes it on, and the deflection made life | :16:49. | :16:52. | |
uncomfortable for Courtois. The big Belgian had to change direction | :16:53. | :16:57. | |
here. That's a splendid stop from Courtois. Not the start he was | :16:58. | :17:01. | |
anticipating. David Meyler, closed down quickly by | :17:02. | :17:14. | |
Alonso, but still found Sam Clucas. Snodgrass crosses deep. It drops for | :17:15. | :17:21. | |
Mason, and again. Twice Chelsea got bodies in the way. Alonso was sucked | :17:22. | :17:30. | |
out by the need to close down David Meyler and there is suddenly a | :17:31. | :17:34. | |
massive space for Snodgrass. So much time, Hull had two attacking that, | :17:35. | :17:39. | |
Mason's first shot blocked, as was the second. | :17:40. | :17:44. | |
Kante feeds Moses who is one-on-one against Robertson, whose | :17:45. | :17:52. | |
backpedalling. Moses, again guilty of overelaborate play. The chance | :17:53. | :18:00. | |
was there to get it in the box. Just wonder if Moses might have been | :18:01. | :18:05. | |
caught as he tries to dance his way into the box. Diomande's challenge. | :18:06. | :18:13. | |
The ball has gone, and he catches Moses. | :18:14. | :18:18. | |
On by Mbokani. Snodgrass stopped initially by Luiz. Cahill gets it | :18:19. | :18:31. | |
clear. Livermore regains its the whole city so well. Mason with the | :18:32. | :18:37. | |
shot, and Courtois with good hands to turn it around. -- regains it for | :18:38. | :18:45. | |
Hull city. Mason is never shy to take it on from distance. The first | :18:46. | :18:51. | |
half looks as though it will finish as it started, with a great Courtois | :18:52. | :18:53. | |
stop. Hazard turns away from Diomande. | :18:54. | :19:08. | |
Steps inside Robertson, and it's a good drive. Finally David Marshall | :19:09. | :19:12. | |
is required to make a superb stop. This was a dazzling run and a | :19:13. | :19:17. | |
powerful drive. Chelsea unbeaten against Hull city in the Premier | :19:18. | :19:21. | |
League, winning six of their eight meetings. Livermore, oh dear. | :19:22. | :19:32. | |
Straight to Willian. Diego Costa, Marshall comes a long way and Costa | :19:33. | :19:38. | |
against the post. And Kante blasts it over the bar. Hull City living | :19:39. | :19:45. | |
dangerously there. It all stemmed from the careless ball out of | :19:46. | :19:49. | |
defence. When it was fed through to Costa, kept his feet, got away from | :19:50. | :19:54. | |
Marshall. The flick from Livermore took it on to the post. N'Golo Kante | :19:55. | :19:59. | |
just isn't a finisher. Kante seizes the loose ball once | :20:00. | :20:17. | |
more. Costa, so strong and determined. Willian, gets the shot | :20:18. | :20:24. | |
away! Chelsea take the lead on the hour. Such an improvement in this | :20:25. | :20:30. | |
second half. They needed it. Whatever he said to them during the | :20:31. | :20:36. | |
break has paid dividends. It was sloppy from Robertson. Here is the | :20:37. | :20:43. | |
key moment, Costa against Curtis Davies. Costa uses it wisely. | :20:44. | :20:48. | |
Willian used Hazard as a decoy. Knew what he was trying to do and he | :20:49. | :20:52. | |
bends it magnificently into the top corner. His second goal of the | :20:53. | :20:58. | |
campaign. His last goal was Chelsea's last victory against | :20:59. | :21:02. | |
Burnley. Will that goal set them up for a return to winning ways? Hull | :21:03. | :21:05. | |
City 0- one Chelsea. Alonso finds Matic. Matic goes on, | :21:06. | :21:19. | |
and on he goes. Might have to do it all himself. Diego Costa! 2-0. | :21:20. | :21:27. | |
Almost an identical replica to the gold from Willian. In terms of where | :21:28. | :21:36. | |
Diego Costa put the shot. His sixth of the campaign. | :21:37. | :21:43. | |
But how much credit does Nemanja Matic deserve? His striding, | :21:44. | :21:51. | |
purposeful, determined run. Diego Costa knew what was on as the ball | :21:52. | :21:55. | |
rolled his way. It's a long way back for Hull City now. Chelsea rampant. | :21:56. | :22:06. | |
You sense Chelsea are almost toying with Hull before looking for the | :22:07. | :22:12. | |
third goal. They might get it now. Willian goes down. No interest from | :22:13. | :22:17. | |
either the referee or his assistant on the far side. Davies is the | :22:18. | :22:22. | |
defender. He's got the ball but then catches Willian afterwards. That's a | :22:23. | :22:23. | |
penalty. Cahill looking for Oscar, who is on | :22:24. | :22:34. | |
the shoulder of Livermore. Willian in support, so is Costa. Alonso is | :22:35. | :22:40. | |
arriving. He finds across, and it's a good one. Pedro couldn't apply the | :22:41. | :22:46. | |
finish at the back post. He was scuttling in as quickly as he could, | :22:47. | :22:51. | |
the little Spaniard. Could have been three, four, more, but Chelsea will | :22:52. | :22:56. | |
settle for two and three points. After the last couple of weeks we | :22:57. | :22:59. | |
have been working on different things. We have been conceding a lot | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
of goals and I think today the team concentrated for 90 minutes and kept | :23:05. | :23:08. | |
the clean sheet. You made changes with Ivanovic and Fabregas left out. | :23:09. | :23:11. | |
Do you think that decision was justified? No, but when you are in a | :23:12. | :23:21. | |
great team you have the opportunity to choose the best situation every | :23:22. | :23:30. | |
week, in every game. Then it's normal that I want to win. I've | :23:31. | :23:37. | |
asked the players to learn certain lessons and I think deep down we are | :23:38. | :23:41. | |
doing that. We are slowly getting there. It's seven points. We have to | :23:42. | :23:44. | |
be pretty pleased with that return because a lot of other teams haven't | :23:45. | :23:49. | |
got that. The defeats for Chelsea were very heavy, but it's important | :23:50. | :23:53. | |
to have a good answer, a good reply today, from the players. Yeah, we | :23:54. | :24:03. | |
must follow it this way. Important victory for Chelsea. Interesting | :24:04. | :24:07. | |
watching Kante at Chelsea. Slightly different role, hasn't he? He was | :24:08. | :24:12. | |
terrific day but playing slightly different to how he did at | :24:13. | :24:16. | |
Leicester. At Leicester he had less possession. He was naturally deeper. | :24:17. | :24:21. | |
Chelsea control far more games so he finds himself in more advanced | :24:22. | :24:25. | |
positions on the pitch. Interesting to see him perform at times in these | :24:26. | :24:30. | |
positions. Simple ball out wide, getting people involved. I like to | :24:31. | :24:35. | |
see Kante's reaction when they lose the ball, that's why they bought | :24:36. | :24:40. | |
him, he sets the trigger, trying to win the ball back for his side. Did | :24:41. | :24:44. | |
that on numerous occasions today. Wins the ball there. In the second | :24:45. | :24:49. | |
half he was the catalyst, he wanted to be the driving force in midfield | :24:50. | :24:54. | |
to take the game to Hull. He gets in these positions here and doesn't | :24:55. | :24:58. | |
quite trust himself. Tries to find Hazard. Most midfielders would let | :24:59. | :25:03. | |
fly there. He has the ability to do it. When he picks up his head and | :25:04. | :25:08. | |
has the weight of pass across. Lovely slip to Costa. Not this bit! | :25:09. | :25:13. | |
The follow-up, you have to say he went to pieces a little bit. But | :25:14. | :25:18. | |
again, winning the ball back all game for Chelsea and in the second | :25:19. | :25:21. | |
half he was the main driving force that enabled them to get the 2-0 | :25:22. | :25:27. | |
victory. Good display from him. The other positive is Diego Costa back | :25:28. | :25:31. | |
to his best. Six Premier League goals this season. Today I thought | :25:32. | :25:37. | |
he was brilliant. He led by example. He played in the right way, was | :25:38. | :25:42. | |
aggressive in the right way. He brought his team-mates into the | :25:43. | :25:48. | |
game. Since he signed for Chelsea, there is only Aguero and Harry Kane | :25:49. | :25:51. | |
who have scored more Premier League goals than he has. He ran in behind, | :25:52. | :25:56. | |
he was very difficult to play against today because he was in that | :25:57. | :26:01. | |
right mood, not looking to dive around and get other players booked. | :26:02. | :26:05. | |
He was aggressive in the right way. Assist for Willian. Everything about | :26:06. | :26:12. | |
his game today I liked. This was a brilliant run. Didn't get it but he | :26:13. | :26:19. | |
created space for Matic. First time, back of the net. The keeper has no | :26:20. | :26:23. | |
chance. When he plays like that I'm a massive fan of his. Hull, a good | :26:24. | :26:29. | |
start, but they have gone off the boil. A tough run of fixtures. It's | :26:30. | :26:33. | |
perhaps the lack of quality am at the end product. Exactly that. For | :26:34. | :26:41. | |
45 minutes they held their own, passing it around nicely, and they | :26:42. | :26:45. | |
seemed to have composure in the right areas of the pitch. It was a | :26:46. | :26:49. | |
very assured performance from them. You can tell they have played a lot | :26:50. | :26:53. | |
of tough sides because they did not seem overawed by the occasion of | :26:54. | :26:57. | |
playing Chelsea. In areas of the pitch like that, do they have that | :26:58. | :27:02. | |
added quality? It was tight in there, Mason and Clucas playing | :27:03. | :27:06. | |
well. But did they have the options? The ball comes to Mbokani, and it | :27:07. | :27:14. | |
comes back to Mason, are they doing enough to attack the Chelsea | :27:15. | :27:18. | |
defence? It wasn't enough today, far too easy for the Chelsea defence. | :27:19. | :27:23. | |
The ball would often go back and switch. More often than not it would | :27:24. | :27:28. | |
come to nothing. I feel with the run of games they have coming up, | :27:29. | :27:32. | |
Bournemouth away, stuck at home, Watford away, still tough fixtures, | :27:33. | :27:38. | |
but this is the area Mike Phelan and his team need to refine. -- Stoke | :27:39. | :27:40. | |
away. Two down, four to go. It's into Troy Deeney. That's | :27:41. | :27:58. | |
through and wide. Well saved by Jordan Pickford. Little touch from | :27:59. | :28:01. | |
Barry. Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe | :28:02. | :28:11. | |
described being linked to the England job as an unwelcome | :28:12. | :28:13. | |
distraction ahead of his side's trip to Watford, who came unstuck | :28:14. | :28:16. | |
at Burnley on Monday night. If what Watford win tonight they go | :28:17. | :28:24. | |
but Chelsea into the top eight of the Premier League. It's a high one, | :28:25. | :28:28. | |
and it's gone in from the header down. Lots of questions for Watford | :28:29. | :28:32. | |
to answer about how they defended that. Right foot cross into the | :28:33. | :28:35. | |
mixer, into the back of the net and Will -- Keane doubles their lead. | :28:36. | :28:48. | |
Steve Wilson was at Vicarage Road. COMMENTATOR: Three years ago, Troy | :28:49. | :28:52. | |
Deeney scored three in a Zig Zag in one Watford win over Bournemouth, | :28:53. | :28:56. | |
Eddie Howe's heaviest managerial defeat. Two more goals will take | :28:57. | :29:01. | |
Deeney to 100 for the club. It's just over two years since Jack | :29:02. | :29:05. | |
Wilshere played 90 minutes and six months since Bournemouth won away. | :29:06. | :29:11. | |
Wilshere start in an unchanged side. Graham Taylor here, the former | :29:12. | :29:14. | |
Watford manager, who celebrated his birthday this week. Nearly 20 years | :29:15. | :29:19. | |
since Bournemouth won on this ground. Wilson with Sebastian Prodl, | :29:20. | :29:26. | |
and the free kick given for handball by the Austrian. Yellow card for | :29:27. | :29:30. | |
Sebastian Prodl, who felt he had been knocked over and fouled. | :29:31. | :29:34. | |
Mazzarri is absolutely livid with that decision from Mike Dean. Prodl | :29:35. | :29:42. | |
thought he had been fouled but knew if the decision didn't go his way | :29:43. | :29:49. | |
then he would be in trouble. Looks like six of one, half dozen of the | :29:50. | :29:56. | |
other. Prodl knew there was a problem, deliberately handled and no | :29:57. | :29:59. | |
question about that. Mazzarri is on a final warning, I think. | :30:00. | :30:05. | |
Smith tried the backheel to find Wilshere but Stanislas is onto it. | :30:06. | :30:12. | |
Deflection on the cross. Wilson's header. 1-0 to Bournemouth. Callum | :30:13. | :30:20. | |
Wilson puts Bournemouth in. -- front. A deflection on the cross, | :30:21. | :30:27. | |
and it's a lovely finish. Good play by Stanislas, a little deflection | :30:28. | :30:32. | |
off Holebas, but it went on to the head of Callum Wilson, who surprised | :30:33. | :30:35. | |
Heurelho Gomes, who will not be happy with his contribution. | :30:36. | :30:40. | |
Bournemouth lead by a goal to nothing. | :30:41. | :30:46. | |
Play on, says Mike Dean, though he is just acknowledged the foul by | :30:47. | :30:54. | |
Smith. Here's Ighalo, trying to turn Arter. Ighalo, nicely left by | :30:55. | :31:00. | |
Roberto Pereyra. Excellent double save. Artur Boruc, it's a yellow | :31:01. | :31:08. | |
card, shown to Adam Smith for the foul in the build-up. Well spotted | :31:09. | :31:13. | |
by Mike Dean. Holebas really felt bad. It was high and dangerous on | :31:14. | :31:18. | |
the left-back is still down. It was a good advantage played by Mike | :31:19. | :31:22. | |
Dean, because Watford very nearly equalised. A nice dummied by Roberto | :31:23. | :31:31. | |
Pereyra. That's a nice fave. Mazzarri's birthday today, 55, the | :31:32. | :31:34. | |
Italian. There have to be easier ways to celebrate your birthday! | :31:35. | :31:41. | |
Wilson nicked it. Wilshere joining him in the area. Wilson stays on his | :31:42. | :31:49. | |
feet. He tees up Surman, who wastes the chance. Wilson stayed on his | :31:50. | :31:56. | |
feet, nicked it away from Prodl. Is that a foul? Others might have gone | :31:57. | :32:00. | |
down. In the end he teed up Surman on Surman's finish was horrible. I | :32:01. | :32:05. | |
wouldn't want to pick a winner at the moment between these two sides, | :32:06. | :32:09. | |
evenly balanced, beautifully poised actually. It's a corner off Daniels. | :32:10. | :32:20. | |
Watford's corner. Told in by Holebas. Prodl, so unlucky. | :32:21. | :32:26. | |
Fantastic invention from Troy Deeney. What would you say if this | :32:27. | :32:31. | |
had gone in? Well, it's like the old scorpion kick, of the goalkeeper. | :32:32. | :32:43. | |
Watford throw, they are in a bit of a hurry. Deeney. 1-1. Troy Deeney | :32:44. | :32:55. | |
levels for Watford. His 99th goal for the club. One more needed to | :32:56. | :33:00. | |
become only the fifth Hornet ever to reach 100. He owes a debt of thanks | :33:01. | :33:05. | |
to Amrabat for Rizwan, the throw-in quickly taken. Amrabat left Daniels | :33:06. | :33:11. | |
and left him far too easily and Deeney couldn't believe his luck. | :33:12. | :33:17. | |
Well done, Amrabat. For Troy Deeney that's fruity finish. It's 1-1. -- | :33:18. | :33:21. | |
that the routine finish. Jack Wilson, he's hit the post. -- | :33:22. | :33:34. | |
Wilshere. It's a lovely little run but onto the face of the post, | :33:35. | :33:37. | |
rather than the back of the net. This is Isaac Success for Watford, | :33:38. | :33:44. | |
the 20-year-old comes on for Ighalo. He's got a lot going for him, the | :33:45. | :33:46. | |
young Nigerian. Hooked into Deeney. Good save by | :33:47. | :34:09. | |
Artur Boruc. So close here. -- so close here to his 100th, Troy | :34:10. | :34:18. | |
Deeney. A decent save. Ibe goes off. On comes the Norwegian | :34:19. | :34:23. | |
international. Artur Boruc with the long clearance. In towards King, a | :34:24. | :34:27. | |
strong header by Kaboul. Steve Cook here for Bournemouth, | :34:28. | :34:42. | |
into Stanislas. Surman, lofted in the general direction of King but a | :34:43. | :34:46. | |
mistake by Holebas. King has good feet. He's got Wilshere in front of | :34:47. | :34:53. | |
him. Josh King going alone. It is deflected, he's scored. Bournemouth | :34:54. | :34:58. | |
back in front. Josh King within a minute of coming onto the pitch puts | :34:59. | :35:04. | |
Eddie Howe's side back in front. Well, look at this. Two little | :35:05. | :35:10. | |
tricks, Jack Wilson almost in his way says get out of my road -- Jack | :35:11. | :35:16. | |
Wilshere. Certainly helped it on its way. It's come off Kaboul into the | :35:17. | :35:24. | |
back of Watford's net. It's King's goal, the shot on target, you won't | :35:25. | :35:28. | |
take it away from him. That's how it feels when your substitution works a | :35:29. | :35:39. | |
treat. Holebas, Success. Tricky, strong quick customer, he's got a | :35:40. | :35:44. | |
free kick. I think Mike Dean has done the right thing, Success, 2-2. | :35:45. | :35:51. | |
Another goal from another substitute. Isaac Success in his | :35:52. | :35:57. | |
first ball Watford. It's all square again, with 25 minutes still to | :35:58. | :36:05. | |
play. It's a really good ball in, a cracking header. He's used the paste | :36:06. | :36:12. | |
off the delivery and redirected it. Impassive for the first time in the | :36:13. | :36:16. | |
game, practically, Walter Matt Ari. No one else's. It's 2-2. Great noise | :36:17. | :36:23. | |
now at Vicarage Road. Amrabat for Watford, what a thoroughly | :36:24. | :36:26. | |
entertaining game this has been. Roberto Pereyra behind Daniels. | :36:27. | :36:36. | |
Scooped in four Deeney. Mike Dean has given a free kick for the foul | :36:37. | :36:40. | |
on Artur Boruc. He pointed back towards the halfway line, the | :36:41. | :36:43. | |
referee, I thought he had given the goal. No way, not me, says Deeney. | :36:44. | :36:51. | |
Definitely onside, Roberto Pereyra. Lofted it up to Deeney. The first | :36:52. | :36:55. | |
question is did the ball crossed the line, but that became immaterial | :36:56. | :36:58. | |
because Deeney jumped into Boruc in the opinion of Mike Dean. | :36:59. | :37:05. | |
A great run from Smith, right-hand side. King might feed him. Here he | :37:06. | :37:12. | |
is, Smith, a tap in, surely? Wilshere has hit the post again. | :37:13. | :37:17. | |
He's hit the same post in almost the same place. I great run from Smith. | :37:18. | :37:23. | |
Jack Wilshere off the woodwork and now Jack Wilson off the pitch. Dan | :37:24. | :37:30. | |
Gosling comes on to replace him. Stanislas could get this right now | :37:31. | :37:35. | |
to Smith. Smith running away from Behrami. A free kick, right on the | :37:36. | :37:42. | |
edge of the penalty area. Prodl caught enough of Smith for Mike Dean | :37:43. | :37:47. | |
to give that free kick. It Stanislas, and he has hit the | :37:48. | :37:53. | |
woodwork as well. Well, three times now Bournemouth have hit Watford | :37:54. | :37:59. | |
woodwork. It's a really good effort by Stanislas. An inch and a half | :38:00. | :38:04. | |
lower, and Gomes would not have got there. when you scored two and hit | :38:05. | :38:10. | |
the woodwork three times you're going to be disappointed. We are | :38:11. | :38:13. | |
disappointed especially when you take the lead, you think it should | :38:14. | :38:18. | |
be enough. I thought it was a game of end to end stuff, both teams in | :38:19. | :38:22. | |
it. It was very even but we had the best chances. It's your birthday | :38:23. | :38:26. | |
today, can you allow yourself a celebration today, because the | :38:27. | :38:31. | |
performance was much better? TRANSLATION: We haven't played | :38:32. | :38:35. | |
better complaint to Burnley, much better. I'm very happy with this. | :38:36. | :38:40. | |
The players have given me a nice present today, with this point | :38:41. | :38:44. | |
unfortunately if there would have been slightly more concentrated in | :38:45. | :38:47. | |
some moments of the game they would have given me the three points but | :38:48. | :38:51. | |
I'm happy now with this point. Obviously delighted with the goal, | :38:52. | :38:55. | |
it's bringing confidence and keep working hard for the team. It seemed | :38:56. | :39:00. | |
to pay off. Disappointed not to take three points having taken the lead | :39:01. | :39:04. | |
twice. Can I ask you what make of Troy Deeney? He's a handful, he's a | :39:05. | :39:09. | |
strong lad. He's causing the defences all sorts of problems and | :39:10. | :39:13. | |
he has got his goal today, unfortunately for us. Fair play to | :39:14. | :39:16. | |
him. Hopefully he can carry on doing what he's doing. It brings is | :39:17. | :39:21. | |
straight to Troy Deeney. I know you want to focus on him. He's possibly | :39:22. | :39:33. | |
on the brink of an England call-up, it's not inconceivable, Harry Kane | :39:34. | :39:34. | |
injured? Correct, Harry Kane injured. A couple of games coming | :39:35. | :39:37. | |
up, Malta and Slovenia. He's been outstanding. These are montage of | :39:38. | :39:39. | |
what he's been doing for Watford over the years. This is not | :39:40. | :39:42. | |
something new. I find myself saying were always asking could we bring in | :39:43. | :39:50. | |
Andy Carroll, a hold-up man, are there any better than holding up the | :39:51. | :39:54. | |
ball than Troy Deeney? We've got a lack of leaders. He's Watford's | :39:55. | :39:59. | |
skipper, leading by example. Can he put the ball in the back of the net? | :40:00. | :40:03. | |
He has scored three in the last four. He's a goal-scorer. I enjoy | :40:04. | :40:07. | |
watching him play and the players enjoy his leadership. He is a | :40:08. | :40:11. | |
handful in the box. He's good with the ball at his feet. May be he has | :40:12. | :40:17. | |
an opportunity. He's an integral part of how Watford play and I like | :40:18. | :40:20. | |
the way he leads the team, he drags them forward and Rashford is ahead | :40:21. | :40:25. | |
of him, Vardy and Sturridge, Kane is injured but if there is another | :40:26. | :40:29. | |
injury that comes along then yes, he should be given an opportunity. | :40:30. | :40:33. | |
Quite close. As the Bournemouth, always good to watch, they placed | :40:34. | :40:38. | |
nice football, attacking, score goals. They are doing OK, you | :40:39. | :40:42. | |
consider the stature and financial clout of the club compared. They can | :40:43. | :40:49. | |
be very pleased with their start, 12 in the league, eight points, they | :40:50. | :40:53. | |
have Hull, Stoke, Spurs, they have chances. You don't worry about them, | :40:54. | :40:58. | |
do you? They play good stuff. West Ham, who've lost four | :40:59. | :41:01. | |
in a row - conceding 14 goals in the process - | :41:02. | :41:04. | |
faced a Middlesbrough side who themselves came into the game | :41:05. | :41:06. | |
on the back of three defeats. Jonathan Pearce was at | :41:07. | :41:09. | |
the London Stadium. Slaven Bilic has called for troubled | :41:10. | :41:19. | |
West Ham to approach this as calmly and professionally as possible, | :41:20. | :41:23. | |
defending his decision to allow the players a night out. Still making | :41:24. | :41:29. | |
personnel changes and the formation alteration to end their worst start | :41:30. | :41:32. | |
to the Premier League since 2002, when they went down. Jordan Rhodes | :41:33. | :41:38. | |
starts for the first time. Boro look to end an awful record. | :41:39. | :41:44. | |
A decent header await by Barragan. -- header away by Barragan. West Ham | :41:45. | :41:56. | |
have a problem. Sam Byram has gone down and he's holding the back of | :41:57. | :42:00. | |
his right hamstring, it would seem. This could be another blow to Slaven | :42:01. | :42:05. | |
Bilic. He threw himself through the air their seemed to land awkwardly. | :42:06. | :42:12. | |
Fairly innocuous at the time, then he had his hand on his hamstring? | :42:13. | :42:17. | |
Well, a major upset this for West Ham United. It's a good win in the | :42:18. | :42:31. | |
air -- good wind in the air. He wasn't too far wide. Good start by | :42:32. | :42:38. | |
Boro. A promising scoring record at Ajax unaware he won two league | :42:39. | :42:43. | |
titles. Cost 3.8 million in the summer, hasn't yet got off is about | :42:44. | :42:49. | |
the Boro. Slaven Bilic maintains the atmosphere hit isn't flat. They've | :42:50. | :42:52. | |
been very positive. He told Mark Noble the captain to take his meal | :42:53. | :42:57. | |
out for a -- his team out for a meal together. He says that bonding | :42:58. | :43:02. | |
session was as good as it was 20 years ago, when he was playing. | :43:03. | :43:06. | |
Payet's season hasn't really ignited yet. Very good block. Good defending | :43:07. | :43:14. | |
by Chambers. Hasn't scored in the league this season. He last scored | :43:15. | :43:21. | |
in the lead against Accrington. I think Valdes had it covered anyway. | :43:22. | :43:30. | |
Good ball. Here's Antonio to take on Chambers. Payet following up. Goes | :43:31. | :43:39. | |
for gold. It would have been a worthy opener in league football | :43:40. | :43:41. | |
this season for him. Rolled in from the left hand side. "Body To bend | :43:42. | :43:45. | |
the ball in, bent it wide. It's a poor tackle. Kouyate miss | :43:46. | :43:51. | |
timed it. It's Downing with it, hit the wall. | :43:52. | :44:09. | |
Payet turns it away to the speed of Antonio. A heavy touch, but he has | :44:10. | :44:12. | |
the speed to keep it in play. Payet is behind him. Switches it to Noble. | :44:13. | :44:19. | |
They have a player over on the far side, it's Ogbonna. Mark Noble. One | :44:20. | :44:25. | |
of the best efforts we have seen so far. They look at their best as a | :44:26. | :44:31. | |
counterattacking team. Mark Noble, who cares so much about every minute | :44:32. | :44:39. | |
in a West Ham shirt, but it wide. Here's Payet, Arbeloa a bit late so | :44:40. | :44:45. | |
he goes left and Noble. Antonio out there. Kouyate has arrived and | :44:46. | :44:49. | |
nearly get on the on the end trying to create. That's what he needs to | :44:50. | :44:54. | |
do. Antonio drifts wide, Kouyate has to get in there. He could not bring | :44:55. | :44:56. | |
it down and get the effort on goal. Should be a corner if it goes out. | :44:57. | :45:08. | |
Hasn't gone out yet. Antonio, comes back to Mark Noble. He shoots and it | :45:09. | :45:12. | |
hits the bar. That's the closest we've come. Tore forces the corner, | :45:13. | :45:21. | |
West and ending the half strongly. Bent deliciously, off the woodwork, | :45:22. | :45:26. | |
but didn't in. -- West Ham ending the half strongly. Jordan Rhodes is | :45:27. | :45:34. | |
on the side. Adrian was hesitant. Rhodes sends it forward with Winston | :45:35. | :45:40. | |
Reid getting it away. Got there, but was second best. The suspicion of | :45:41. | :45:45. | |
some shirt tugging on Rhodes. Was it enough to concede a penalty? Don't | :45:46. | :45:47. | |
know, but took a chance. The West Ham defence is under | :45:48. | :46:01. | |
pressure. The block comes in. As soon as the West Ham move broke down | :46:02. | :46:06. | |
at one end, too many players walking, not defending as an 11 and | :46:07. | :46:11. | |
Rhodes crept in behind. Third corner of the game for Middlesbrough. Off | :46:12. | :46:18. | |
the line by Mark Noble. The referee says it is crossed, it's a goal, and | :46:19. | :46:22. | |
Middlesbrough lead. The fans are delighted. Stuani crept through and | :46:23. | :46:30. | |
more trouble for West Ham. Got a yard away from poor marking. Clearly | :46:31. | :46:35. | |
over the line. That's why the goal decision system is there. Problem | :46:36. | :46:40. | |
for West Ham United, they went decisive enough defending. Antonio | :46:41. | :46:45. | |
let him get away and Middlesbrough lead at the London Stadium. It might | :46:46. | :46:48. | |
act as a wake-up call. Winston Reid hangs it in the air for | :46:49. | :47:01. | |
Payet. Slips beyond Barragan. Two waiting in the middle. Roles in the | :47:02. | :47:07. | |
side, good run by Payet. Is this his moment? Is this his moment?! It's | :47:08. | :47:16. | |
his moment! One moment in time may change everything. Sensational goal. | :47:17. | :47:21. | |
West Ham were behind for five minutes. Slipped away from Barragan, | :47:22. | :47:26. | |
inside the next challenge, carried on going and waited until he could | :47:27. | :47:31. | |
get a shot away and tickled at home. His season has barely flickered, now | :47:32. | :47:39. | |
it has ignited. Now we can hear the effect of the London Stadium roar. | :47:40. | :47:45. | |
Zaza wins it back and finds Payet. Isolated with Chambers. Support | :47:46. | :47:55. | |
arriving through Mark Noble. He's bundled over on the edge of the | :47:56. | :48:00. | |
penalty area by Martin De Roon. He gets a yellow card. Just outside the | :48:01. | :48:08. | |
box. He's brought them back into the game. Can Payet put them ahead? Hit | :48:09. | :48:17. | |
the wall. Thundered goalwards by Arbeloa, but wide. Goals have been | :48:18. | :48:25. | |
sparely delivered over the years. Six at Real Madrid in six years, and | :48:26. | :48:30. | |
six at Liverpool. West Ham United get a point to end their run of four | :48:31. | :48:35. | |
league defeats in a row. Still disappointed it wasn't the win they | :48:36. | :48:38. | |
crave. A very good point for Middlesbrough. A good point, | :48:39. | :48:43. | |
especially after the last three defeats. Today, I said before the | :48:44. | :48:51. | |
game that West Ham, it's true they are not in their best moment but | :48:52. | :48:55. | |
they have amazing players. We could see, their goal was amazing. For us, | :48:56. | :49:01. | |
I am pleased because it's one more point. And to play with this | :49:02. | :49:05. | |
attitude and intensity, I told them after the game that this is the way. | :49:06. | :49:10. | |
Dimitri Payet scored some goal in that game, have you seen many | :49:11. | :49:19. | |
better? Yes, we know him for a long time. He's a magnificent player. He | :49:20. | :49:25. | |
scores like a Leo Messi goal at Barcelona. Fantastic finish. It's a | :49:26. | :49:36. | |
massive goal for us. We can't keep depending on Dimi. We know he's a | :49:37. | :49:39. | |
world-class player but you can't keep depending on him like this. We | :49:40. | :49:43. | |
need to be better going forward. It's a lot to keep on asking him to | :49:44. | :49:46. | |
come up with goals like this. STUDIO: After the game I spoke to | :49:47. | :49:53. | |
West Ham manager Slaven Bilic. After four consecutive defeats, at least | :49:54. | :49:57. | |
you stopped the rot. You are right, Gary. Of course we were looking for | :49:58. | :50:02. | |
a win, considering that we were playing at home against a team, with | :50:03. | :50:09. | |
the greatest respect, but still in the bottom half of the table. But | :50:10. | :50:14. | |
there were a lot of positives today. We showed what the team should be | :50:15. | :50:20. | |
all about. We showed character, fighting, the spirit and quality as | :50:21. | :50:24. | |
well. At the moment we are not playing the greatest football. We | :50:25. | :50:28. | |
are not creating a lot of chances, but we came back and at the end of | :50:29. | :50:34. | |
the day we get a point. It might be crucial for us. You were trailing in | :50:35. | :50:39. | |
this particular game, and then we saw a moment of pure magic from | :50:40. | :50:45. | |
Payet. It was a great goal, great individual goal. As you say, I | :50:46. | :50:52. | |
agree, it was pure magic. But in a situation like this you need your | :50:53. | :50:56. | |
best players to do something extra. And this was definitely a moment of | :50:57. | :51:03. | |
something special that he brought us back into the game. How about you | :51:04. | :51:07. | |
personally, have you felt the pressure over the last week or so? | :51:08. | :51:12. | |
Look, I feel the pressure, but what kind of pressure, I feel it because | :51:13. | :51:17. | |
I am not happy with the way we are playing. I'm not happy with our | :51:18. | :51:22. | |
position in the table. And I'm not happy because we lost four Premier | :51:23. | :51:30. | |
League games on the trot. Of course, it's below my standards. Of course, | :51:31. | :51:38. | |
I'm feeling the pressure about it. We showed today, although we didn't | :51:39. | :51:43. | |
win, and we are happy with the result but it's not exactly what we | :51:44. | :51:47. | |
wanted. But we showed that the team is alive, that there is character, | :51:48. | :51:51. | |
and that we are together. We wish you all the best and thank you for | :51:52. | :51:57. | |
talking to us. Thank you, Gary. It kind of stopped the rot in one way. | :51:58. | :52:02. | |
But there is only one place to start, that extraordinary goal from | :52:03. | :52:06. | |
Dimitri Payet. Quite possibly the greatest goal ever seen at the | :52:07. | :52:11. | |
London Stadium! They've not had a lot to shout about at this stadium. | :52:12. | :52:17. | |
But that today, wow. Sends one down, two down. He eventually goes past | :52:18. | :52:23. | |
five players, sending three of them down on their backsides. Pure | :52:24. | :52:28. | |
brilliance. The confidence, touch. The turn. We will never get tired of | :52:29. | :52:36. | |
seeing this, will we? It was amazing. Just what they needed, just | :52:37. | :52:39. | |
what they wanted, and without a shadow of a doubt, it will be in | :52:40. | :52:44. | |
goal of the season. What was amazing, Winston Reid got an assist! | :52:45. | :52:51. | |
It was a good ball. Good point for Middlesbrough away from home. You | :52:52. | :52:54. | |
picked out Adam Forshaw, you thought he was exceptional. I did. | :52:55. | :52:59. | |
Middlesbrough have been on the best run themselves. Some poor | :53:00. | :53:03. | |
performances and poor results. Adam Forshaw came in and put a really | :53:04. | :53:08. | |
good performance in midfield. He has a great range of passing. He doesn't | :53:09. | :53:14. | |
shy away from a pass. I like to see midfielders taking risks. Jordan | :53:15. | :53:17. | |
Rhodes should do better with that particular pass. He was happy to | :53:18. | :53:22. | |
take the ball in tight situations, try to make things work for | :53:23. | :53:26. | |
Middlesbrough today. He was always very comfortable with the ball at | :53:27. | :53:31. | |
his feet, his back to goal. Another example of how easy those passes | :53:32. | :53:35. | |
seemed to come to him, and how accepting he is just hit them. Today | :53:36. | :53:44. | |
just a constant thing for him in Middlesbrough side. Seemed very | :53:45. | :53:46. | |
comfortable and looks like he had been playing there for a number of | :53:47. | :53:49. | |
years. I think you will hold onto his spot for a few weeks. A point | :53:50. | :53:55. | |
that probably appeased both sides. There's a pretty special Goal | :53:56. | :53:57. | |
of the Month vote coming up # I won't let you down... At | :53:58. | :55:05. | |
Arsenal, I like the spirit of the club, and the potential of the club. | :55:06. | :55:11. | |
My main ambition is of course to bring success to the team. And to | :55:12. | :55:16. | |
satisfy all the people who love Arsenal. | :55:17. | :55:24. | |
Arsene Wenger, 20 years at Arsenal. He has been linked of course with | :55:25. | :55:30. | |
possibly being the next England manager. These are the odds. Is that | :55:31. | :55:35. | |
conceivable? His contract runs out at the end of the season? By all | :55:36. | :55:41. | |
accounts he turned it down twice, so it's not his dream job. I would be | :55:42. | :55:45. | |
surprised. Arsene Wenger was mentioned for the Germany job some | :55:46. | :55:54. | |
14 or 15 years ago when Germany were in a crisis, but they decided to | :55:55. | :55:59. | |
back one of their own in Jurgen Klinsmann, gave him the power to | :56:00. | :56:02. | |
restructure everything, and I think that's how we should go. Appoint an | :56:03. | :56:06. | |
Englishman, sending out the right message to young aspiring coaches in | :56:07. | :56:11. | |
the country. Gareth Southgate has the best interview for the job, four | :56:12. | :56:16. | |
games to get it right. If he impresses and get the right people | :56:17. | :56:19. | |
around him, I think we should progress in that way. Jermaine, | :56:20. | :56:25. | |
they're that many obvious in this candidates to choose from. -- there | :56:26. | :56:29. | |
are not that many. I think we only have ourselves to blame. We have let | :56:30. | :56:33. | |
too many get away from the system. Players like Frank Lampard and | :56:34. | :56:38. | |
Steven Gerrard. In what sense have we let them get away? The FA, there | :56:39. | :56:42. | |
is not much there in terms of giving them the room to grow and keeping | :56:43. | :56:46. | |
them a little bit closer to the FA and to say, we want you to be part | :56:47. | :56:51. | |
of this. There is not enough of a carrot. They make life very | :56:52. | :56:55. | |
difficult to get your badges. It's not as easy as it should be. We | :56:56. | :57:00. | |
allow so much experience just go out of the window. I personally would | :57:01. | :57:05. | |
like to see somebody like Glenn Hoddle put in place somebody like, | :57:06. | :57:13. | |
Alan, Rio, Lampard, with them to go along for the journey, to gain the | :57:14. | :57:17. | |
experience. They kind of did that with Gary Neville alongside Roy | :57:18. | :57:22. | |
Hodgson. But then they both go. I felt like Gary was tarnished with | :57:23. | :57:26. | |
the same brush as Roy. We don't know if Gary had his own thoughts on | :57:27. | :57:30. | |
whether he was being forced into making certain decisions. He might | :57:31. | :57:35. | |
have had his own thoughts, but implementing those and telling your | :57:36. | :57:37. | |
manager to do that is a different thing. I think they have made the | :57:38. | :57:42. | |
right decision in giving it to Gareth. He knows a lot of the | :57:43. | :57:46. | |
players from the U21s system. It gives people time to sit down and | :57:47. | :57:50. | |
reflect. But it has been such an embarrassing week in English | :57:51. | :57:54. | |
football. I didn't think it could get lower than the Euros when we | :57:55. | :57:58. | |
were beaten by Iceland. I think we are at rock bottom now, so the one | :57:59. | :58:01. | |
encouraging sign is, there is only one way to go now. Is it time to | :58:02. | :58:08. | |
tear everything up and start again? Maybe take a chance, like the | :58:09. | :58:11. | |
Germans have done in the past with their own will stop they also put | :58:12. | :58:19. | |
they also put such emphasis on the coaching badges, but if they gave it | :58:20. | :58:23. | |
to a foreign manager, what incentive does that give out to people coming | :58:24. | :58:27. | |
to the end of their career, who have been in tournaments and no what has | :58:28. | :58:31. | |
gone wrong. That's where you need to drag the information from, I think. | :58:32. | :58:38. | |
Sam Allardyce's former club Sunderland, who began the day | :58:39. | :58:40. | |
bottom of the table, welcomed West Brom to | :58:41. | :58:42. | |
This fixture has finished 0-0 the past two seasons. | :58:43. | :58:45. | |
Guy Mowbray was hoping for better this time around. | :58:46. | :58:47. | |
COMMENTATOR: There haven't been many mentions of Sunderland amid this | :58:48. | :58:51. | |
week's sorry England's tail. Maybe there ought to have been. We will | :58:52. | :58:57. | |
never know, but if Sam Allardyce had stayed they might not have been | :58:58. | :59:00. | |
bottom. Five Sunderland changes including a first league start this | :59:01. | :59:05. | |
season for Wahbi Khazri, and one of his responsibilities is to improve | :59:06. | :59:10. | |
the side's set piece delivery. Unchanged West Brom, including two | :59:11. | :59:14. | |
Sunderland old boys from the start, Jonny Evans and James Maclean, who | :59:15. | :59:17. | |
today plays in the Premier League for the 100th time. Sunderland start | :59:18. | :59:23. | |
with only one result being thought about. Today they desperately need a | :59:24. | :59:28. | |
win. Just one point from their opening six games. A two-week break | :59:29. | :59:34. | |
coming up, and it's only four weeks before they play their next home | :59:35. | :59:35. | |
game. Ndong with support from Manquillo, | :59:36. | :59:52. | |
ignored, because Duncan Watmore was in field. Jermain Defoe misses the | :59:53. | :59:57. | |
target, and he was on the side. Just the man David Moyes would have | :59:58. | :00:01. | |
wanted the chance to fall too. He is on the side all right. All looking | :00:02. | :00:08. | |
towards the net, and he's as mystified as anyone else. | :00:09. | :00:17. | |
Chadli wants it. He's on his own to receive it. Turned and shot, well | :00:18. | :00:25. | |
saved by Pickford. Matt Phillips again. McClean jobs. Allan Nyom... | :00:26. | :00:32. | |
And it bounces back into the hands of Pickford. Safe in in. Jordan | :00:33. | :00:38. | |
Pickford came into the Sunderland side after injury to Vito Mannone | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
just three games into the season. Looks as though he might take some | :00:43. | :00:48. | |
shifting from the side. Game number 1001 as a manager for Tony Pulis. | :00:49. | :00:50. | |
The next millennium begins. Good determination, it bounced | :00:51. | :01:04. | |
through nicely to Phillips. Here's Chadli, he's beaten Pickford. It's | :01:05. | :01:11. | |
really well taken goal by Chadli. Yacob deserves some credit. It | :01:12. | :01:15. | |
looked as though he might have lost the ball to Kirchhoff, but he went | :01:16. | :01:21. | |
in determinedly. He has helped himself to his third go for -- his | :01:22. | :01:27. | |
third goal in his fourth goal for them. You can hear how much that has | :01:28. | :01:34. | |
deflated the crowd here. What will that do to confidence which had | :01:35. | :01:39. | |
looked pretty good until that point? Watmore. Always struggling to keep | :01:40. | :01:47. | |
his balance there. Dawson finds McLean. Albion could be in. Help | :01:48. | :01:53. | |
from Rondon, it doesn't reach him though. What a chance for Albion to | :01:54. | :01:59. | |
double their lead before the break. McClean is in, got to give a thumbs | :02:00. | :02:04. | |
up to having Manquillo the way he got back to him. -- Manquillo, the | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
way he got back to him. McClean is looking for Rondon, | :02:09. | :02:19. | |
O'Shea's header has gone straight to Darren Fletcher. Beaten by Pickford. | :02:20. | :02:30. | |
This is Dawson. Chadli. Able somehow to chest the ball down, turn and | :02:31. | :02:37. | |
fire, but fire wide. It was one old friend to another with O Shea is | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
finding his old Manchester United colleague Fletcher with the | :02:42. | :02:45. | |
clearance. Strong hands from Pickford but he didn't get it to a | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
safe place. Three Sunderland players could only stand and watch Chadli | :02:49. | :02:53. | |
stand and get the shot away in amongst them. Kone was lucky, it | :02:54. | :03:09. | |
wasn't decisive. He found an dong. -- Ndong. He found Van Aanholt. It | :03:10. | :03:14. | |
beats McClean. Watmore has his head down. It's to, blocked by Evans, | :03:15. | :03:23. | |
cleared by Evans. Two very good chances for Jermain Defoe, chances | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
he would normally put away. Khazri did well to know where Defoe was but | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
he wanted to be absolutely certain and it was well watched by Yacob and | :03:32. | :03:37. | |
in particular, Evans. A frustrating match for Sunderland's manager, who | :03:38. | :03:40. | |
just want the first Premier League win of the season. | :03:41. | :03:50. | |
Comfortably knocked away by Yacob. Chadli threw towards Rondon. Rondon | :03:51. | :03:58. | |
has to do it by himself. He is capable. He is denied by Pickford. | :03:59. | :04:08. | |
Phillips was trying to get there to help him out but Rondon was never | :04:09. | :04:15. | |
going to pass. He's wanting Phillips to run onto this. Van Aanholt can | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
neatly find Ndong and get up for the return path as well. David Moyes | :04:21. | :04:27. | |
waives his team forward. I use full run from Watmore behind Khazri. | :04:28. | :04:38. | |
There from Patrick van Aanholt. -- there's the equaliser from Patrick | :04:39. | :04:42. | |
van Aanholt. He's over to the team doctor. Patrick van Aanholt was the | :04:43. | :04:48. | |
player at Spurs recently who was pulled out of the starting line up | :04:49. | :04:55. | |
before the match because of problems reportedly with a cardio test and | :04:56. | :05:02. | |
he's giving his thanks fair as he plays the ball into the ground and | :05:03. | :05:06. | |
it loops up over the helpless foster to get Sunderland back into it and | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
maybe to spark the sort of revival that Crystal Palace enjoyed against | :05:12. | :05:14. | |
them last week. That's got the place buzzing. | :05:15. | :05:26. | |
Phillips is well-placed. Phillips, right across the face. Gardner | :05:27. | :05:33. | |
wasn't far away from it. I think 1-1 is pretty fair. In the whole balance | :05:34. | :05:40. | |
of the afternoon. We needed a second goal. We had 21 crosses and needed | :05:41. | :05:48. | |
shots on goal today. Their supporters were fantastic. They kept | :05:49. | :05:50. | |
behind them and when it's 1-0 there's always a chance that they | :05:51. | :05:56. | |
can score or you make a mistake and they can score, so we needed that | :05:57. | :06:00. | |
second goal and I thought we had enough good opportunities in the | :06:01. | :06:03. | |
final third to have at least got that but fair play to Sunderland. | :06:04. | :06:10. | |
They kept going, kept at it and yes, we're disappointed. We were pushing | :06:11. | :06:13. | |
for the second goal, it just didn't come. It's not a great result but at | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
the end we have to accept it and now looking forward for the next game. | :06:19. | :06:23. | |
We needed three points, it wasn't a point we were after but when it was | :06:24. | :06:28. | |
1-0 down and into 75 minutes, I'd have taken a point if we could do | :06:29. | :06:33. | |
but I've got to say well done to the players. They stuck at it, they | :06:34. | :06:36. | |
never gave in, they kept going. They gave everything they could to get | :06:37. | :06:40. | |
something out of the game. It was a managerial change that probably | :06:41. | :06:44. | |
change things. After his problems on a fortnight ago, Patrick van Aanholt | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
came on and transformed things. He did, just over half an hour ago, | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
David Moyes actually put him on the left side of midfield rather than | :06:53. | :06:55. | |
left-back and he changed the game. He gave them a bit of pace and | :06:56. | :07:03. | |
energy and creative passing. There is one of his first ones, superb | :07:04. | :07:09. | |
ball, a chance created, a half chance for Jermain Defoe. He was the | :07:10. | :07:14. | |
one that grabbed the game by the scruff of his net, did his shift | :07:15. | :07:19. | |
defensively also. Winslet, sets them up on the front foot again, helping | :07:20. | :07:25. | |
out again -- he wins it. Away they go again. I thought he was | :07:26. | :07:28. | |
brilliant, he definitely changed the game for them. A beautiful ball in | :07:29. | :07:33. | |
behind, a weighted pass into Khazri, who perhaps should have done better, | :07:34. | :07:38. | |
better touch. But this is the best part. Going back again, defensive, | :07:39. | :07:43. | |
he's the one that wins it, drags his team forward. He gains 20-30 yards | :07:44. | :07:49. | |
running with the ball. Good ball in, doesn't admire that, follows it. | :07:50. | :07:53. | |
Good work by Watmore. I don't care if it's the scruff or not, he | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
deserves it. David Moyes deserved it because it was willing to change it. | :07:58. | :08:01. | |
When you put someone onto the pitch, you're asking them to affect the | :08:02. | :08:05. | |
game and he definitely did that. Is the third time in four seasons | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
Sunderland have failed to win a game in the first seven matches. | :08:10. | :08:13. | |
Extraordinary start? It goes in keeping with how they've struggled | :08:14. | :08:16. | |
towards the end of each of those seasons as well. It's not happy | :08:17. | :08:21. | |
times in those games. Something needs to change. They should | :08:22. | :08:27. | |
probably start the season in March. Tony Pulis thought they should have | :08:28. | :08:31. | |
gone on and won the game from 1-0 up. They were profligate times. They | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
were sloppy. They got into very good situations into the final third. | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
They got the goal, that was lacking in the second goal. A decent chance, | :08:41. | :08:46. | |
a good chance from McClean. Sloppy from Chadli. Final pass was poor. | :08:47. | :08:53. | |
Decision-making was poor. If that -- if they had got the second goal | :08:54. | :08:57. | |
there was no doubt about it. Rondon went on to win the game because the | :08:58. | :09:00. | |
pressure was building upon Sunderland. OK. | :09:01. | :09:03. | |
Time to catch up on last night's action. | :09:04. | :09:05. | |
Everton were looking to bounce back from defeat at Bournemouth | :09:06. | :09:07. | |
against a Crystal Palace side seeking a fourth straight win. | :09:08. | :09:10. | |
Yannick Bolasie scored nine times in 19 Premier League appearances for | :09:11. | :09:24. | |
Crystal Palace, now Everton's biggest summer acquisition bids to | :09:25. | :09:27. | |
score against them as he faces his former club for the first time. His | :09:28. | :09:31. | |
former team-mate Williams -- Wilfried Zaha is recalled by Pardew | :09:32. | :09:35. | |
as he changes the winning team. He replaces Cabaye for Palace, who have | :09:36. | :09:38. | |
lost only one of their last six meetings against Everton. Looking | :09:39. | :09:49. | |
for their third home league win in a row, unbeaten in six at Goodison in | :09:50. | :09:56. | |
the Premier League. He's found him brilliantly, the offside flag was up | :09:57. | :10:02. | |
on Damien Delaney. He's my -- Damien Delaney is mightily relieved, had he | :10:03. | :10:05. | |
been onside that was a penalty to Everton. I mistake. Lukaku against | :10:06. | :10:17. | |
Delaney. Straight at Mandanda. Trying to create something for | :10:18. | :10:21. | |
himself. He wasn't happy last weekend. Some players are finding it | :10:22. | :10:28. | |
difficult to adapt to the style that he wants. Fabulous play. A summer | :10:29. | :10:35. | |
signing from Aston Villa, a former Villa player looking for Lukaku. | :10:36. | :10:42. | |
Might fall to the Belgian again, it was a high foot as well. It's an | :10:43. | :10:47. | |
Everton free kick, right on the edge of the penalty area. Delaney saw the | :10:48. | :10:56. | |
intention of the high boot. Jagielka actually handballs it. Delaney | :10:57. | :11:01. | |
hasn't made any contact and you could argue it should be an indirect | :11:02. | :11:06. | |
free kick anyway. Lukaku with it. And they made the most of that | :11:07. | :11:14. | |
opportunity. Ramallo Lukaku in his -- with his fifth goal in six | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
Premier League games to give Everton lead, up and over the wall. Mandanda | :11:19. | :11:23. | |
indicating who wanted the water jump. They didn't. Everton -- | :11:24. | :11:30. | |
Mandanda indicated he wanted the wall to job. They didn't and Everton | :11:31. | :11:37. | |
are in front. Ledley kept it alive to Zaha. Off goes Ward, outside of | :11:38. | :11:39. | |
him. Ledley is trying to inject more pace | :11:40. | :11:54. | |
into the game. Benteke jumping and jumping superbly. What a header from | :11:55. | :11:59. | |
Christian Benteke. Something out of nothing. He had so much to do there. | :12:00. | :12:06. | |
What a leap. An inch perfect header. That is exactly why Crystal Palace | :12:07. | :12:12. | |
brought into the club. Everton one, Palace one. That has changed the | :12:13. | :12:17. | |
atmosphere around Goodison Park. Benteke back on Merseyside with a | :12:18. | :12:21. | |
goal. Heerkens Bolasie against his former club. He's got... What a | :12:22. | :12:32. | |
challenge from Kelly. He was the saviour, Martin Kelly. The two | :12:33. | :12:41. | |
Belgians, international team-mates. Lukaku and Benteke, on the | :12:42. | :12:45. | |
scoresheet. Finally poised at Goodison. Palace corner. The fifth | :12:46. | :12:49. | |
of the game. Away by Bolasie. Straight back in | :12:50. | :13:05. | |
from Ward. It's another good header. It's Delaney this time. Palace lead, | :13:06. | :13:11. | |
but the flag is up. Flagged for offside, I think. Delaney is on. | :13:12. | :13:24. | |
That's a big call. Watch James McArthur, he's offside. He doesn't | :13:25. | :13:27. | |
touch the ball but does the official think that he's active and in some | :13:28. | :13:34. | |
way has interfered with the goalkeeper's vision? That is the | :13:35. | :13:39. | |
thought process of Simon Bennett, the referee's assistant. Few issues | :13:40. | :13:48. | |
with the officials so far tonight. And Everton corner. | :13:49. | :13:59. | |
Barkley's corner. A little touch from Barry. Jason Puncheon on the | :14:00. | :14:06. | |
post in the right place at the right time. | :14:07. | :14:17. | |
Townsend, in towards Benteke. Well defended the game. Cleared only as | :14:18. | :14:22. | |
far as Zaha. Another block and another corner. | :14:23. | :14:29. | |
Away by Jagielka. Back from Ward. The flag stayed down that time. It | :14:30. | :14:37. | |
was a big chance for Tomkins. Everton were waiting for the offside | :14:38. | :14:42. | |
flag to go up and it wasn't forthcoming. Couldn't really stretch | :14:43. | :14:49. | |
Stekelenburg in the end. It's all square, Everton one, Crystal Palace | :14:50. | :14:50. | |
one. 1-0 up, you are disappointed with | :14:51. | :15:03. | |
the final result, but I think it's a fair result. Delaney's header, if | :15:04. | :15:09. | |
you were Alan Pardew would you be aggrieved it didn't stand? Of | :15:10. | :15:16. | |
course. It's a goal, and then maybe 1-2 to Crystal Palace. But maybe a | :15:17. | :15:19. | |
lot of decisions I didn't understand. Terrific point, you may | :15:20. | :15:24. | |
be disappointed you couldn't get all three? Maybe. I thought we played | :15:25. | :15:29. | |
well. We showed resilience again, went behind at Sunderland and again | :15:30. | :15:35. | |
today. We fought back and were the bosses of the second half, I | :15:36. | :15:38. | |
thought. Have you had an explanation as to why Damien Delaney's goal | :15:39. | :15:42. | |
wasn't given? It's a tricky one all round for the referee. I want -- I | :15:43. | :15:50. | |
won't hold them to ransom on that. And to come from behind at a place | :15:51. | :15:54. | |
like this, not many teams will do that this season. We have worked | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
hard this year. We are trying to change things around. I was pleased | :15:59. | :16:01. | |
with the second half because a lot of teams, and I've had teams who | :16:02. | :16:05. | |
maybe couldn't cope with the second half, but we pushed on and have the | :16:06. | :16:08. | |
resilience to do it and the quality to get back into it. Palace on a | :16:09. | :16:13. | |
roll, and they could conceivably on another day have been given the | :16:14. | :16:18. | |
decision. What did you make of the offside goal? I thought it was a | :16:19. | :16:21. | |
correct decision. A tough decision. Delaney gets up well and win is a | :16:22. | :16:27. | |
good header. If you watch McArthur, he makes a movement towards the | :16:28. | :16:32. | |
ball, which is the law this season. We see there that he goes to try and | :16:33. | :16:38. | |
head it there. The linesman over there, Simon Bennett, he gets it | :16:39. | :16:45. | |
absolutely spot on. He calls the referee Jon Moss over. Not very | :16:46. | :16:49. | |
often we praise the officials, but that was a tough decision and one | :16:50. | :16:52. | |
they got right. You don't mind them taking time to get it right. | :16:53. | :16:56. | |
Belgian strikers in form, one for each club. Yeah, absolutely | :16:57. | :17:04. | |
brilliant goals. Lukaku's first-ever free kick in the Premier League. | :17:05. | :17:09. | |
That he's actually taken. I don't know why he suddenly thought he'd | :17:10. | :17:13. | |
had enough,. Where has he been hiding? This header is phenomenal. | :17:14. | :17:19. | |
To generate that type of power. The cross isn't sent in with pace. He | :17:20. | :17:24. | |
gets above him, and if you see a better header than that this season | :17:25. | :17:28. | |
I will be surprised. Their game has changed with him in the side. Balls | :17:29. | :17:32. | |
into the box are a constant that and it's what Palace needed. Three goals | :17:33. | :17:40. | |
in his last four games. Lukaku with his fifth of the season. Both on | :17:41. | :17:44. | |
fire. Doesn't half make a difference when you're strikers scoring. We are | :17:45. | :17:48. | |
just about out of time. Thank you to you both. Let's have a look at the | :17:49. | :17:51. | |
