COMMENTATOR: Just brilliant, just brilliant!

:00:19.:00:23.

COMMENTATOR: What a turn, what a goal!

:00:24.:00:35.

COMMENTATOR: Look at that. Oh, look at that!

:00:36.:00:49.

It was a day when football paid tribute to former England

:00:50.:00:54.

manager Graham Taylor, who died this week at the age of 72,

:00:55.:00:57.

no more so than at Vicarage Road, where Taylor enjoyed so much

:00:58.:01:00.

Watford versus Middlesbrough, one of eight games on the way.

:01:01.:01:13.

In the company of Danny Murphy and Ian Wright.

:01:14.:01:15.

We start though at the King Power Stadium where Champions Leicester

:01:16.:01:18.

hosted the favourites to take their crown.

:01:19.:01:20.

Leaders Chelsea were missing top-scorer Diego Costa after reports

:01:21.:01:22.

COMMENTATOR: One noticeable absentee as Chelsea bid to embark on another

:01:23.:01:34.

winning run, top-scorer, Diego Costa, is not with the squad in the

:01:35.:01:38.

East Midlands for a fixture Chelsea lost last season and proved to be

:01:39.:01:41.

Jose Mourinho's final game in charge. Leicester welcome back their

:01:42.:01:48.

top-scorer, Jamie Vardy, after a four-match absence. Their recent

:01:49.:01:54.

signing makes his debut. A third league start for 20-year-old Ben

:01:55.:01:57.

Chilwell. Willian replace ares Costa for Chelsea. That is the only team

:01:58.:02:02.

beaten by Spurs. N'Golo Kante makes a first return to the club where he

:02:03.:02:09.

won the title last season. It's Leicester hoping to build on the

:02:10.:02:12.

four points they havic taen from the last six with back-to-back clean

:02:13.:02:16.

sheets. Matic. Is Albrighton quickly on to that. Quickly into the path of

:02:17.:02:21.

Vardy. He's gone Musa up with him. Here is Musa. Still going.

:02:22.:02:34.

Courtois's intervention. Nervous moment inside the first 90 seconds

:02:35.:02:40.

there for Chelsea. Musa's pace something Leicester are hoping to

:02:41.:02:45.

utilise today. Fresh from those two goals in the FA Cup win at Everton.

:02:46.:02:52.

He got around Azpilicueta. At his near-post, as you would have

:02:53.:02:57.

expected him to, Courtois. Matic assessing the situation for Chelsea

:02:58.:03:01.

who went 102 days unbeaten in the Premier League prior to that defeat

:03:02.:03:07.

to Tottenham. Pedro. Potential crossing for Alonso. Back to Matic

:03:08.:03:13.

instead. Patient possession from Chelsea. Everybody, except Vardy,

:03:14.:03:22.

back behind the ball for Leicester. Azpilicueta, trying to guide it

:03:23.:03:25.

through to Hazard. It might still come to him. Then Alonso - 1-0

:03:26.:03:30.

Chelsea. Six minutes gone and the league leaders are in front. Marcos

:03:31.:03:34.

Alonso with his second Premier League goal for the club. Without

:03:35.:03:38.

their top-scorer, they have still found the back of the net early on.

:03:39.:03:42.

Leicester didn't deal with the first cross. Lovely little touch back by

:03:43.:03:48.

Hazard. Very calm finish, you have to say, with his right foot, by

:03:49.:03:55.

Marcos Alonso, who swept in past Kasper Schmeichel, into that bottom

:03:56.:03:59.

corner. Perfect start for Chelsea as they look to bounce back from events

:04:00.:04:03.

at White Hart Lane. Leicester 0, Chelsea 1. 10 minutes in, in

:04:04.:04:10.

reference to the shirt Number 10, Leicester fans lighting up the FK in

:04:11.:04:19.

support of former hero and club ambassador Alan Bichanall. He

:04:20.:04:24.

suffered a heart attack and today he had heart surgery. I'm sure that

:04:25.:04:32.

sight will lift his spirits. The man who is named Fifa's Coach of the

:04:33.:04:36.

Year, he already has food for thought today. Mahrez, Slimani away

:04:37.:04:48.

at the African Cup Of Nations. Almost caught Courtois out.

:04:49.:04:53.

Certainly a situation the Belgium goalkeeper felt he needed to deal

:04:54.:04:59.

with. An interesting run of home games for Leicester, today,

:05:00.:05:01.

Manchester United and Liverpool all heading to the east Midland. They

:05:02.:05:06.

have taken 18 of their 21 points so far this season at the King Power

:05:07.:05:10.

Stadium. Willian. Trying to get away from Fuchs. Fouled by Fuchs.

:05:11.:05:15.

Chelsea, free-kick. It will be the first yellow card of the day for the

:05:16.:05:22.

Austrian. Willian had got away from him. He quite clearly had hold of

:05:23.:05:28.

his shirt. Willian himself to take it. In towards Luiz. Back to Alonso.

:05:29.:05:38.

Deflected - 2-0. Well, the unlikely source of Marcos Alonso has provided

:05:39.:05:44.

both Chelsea goals. That one with a slice of luck about it, but it's

:05:45.:05:50.

taken them just six minutes of the second-half, after it took them six

:05:51.:05:54.

minutes in the first, to beat Kasper Schmeichel. And the league leaders

:05:55.:05:58.

have a two goal cushion. Luiz didn't get there, Alonso had time to steady

:05:59.:06:05.

himself, and it brushed off the Leicester captain, Wes Morgan.

:06:06.:06:10.

That's what diverted it past Kasper Schmeichel who, despite that

:06:11.:06:14.

outstretched arm, couldn't keep it out. Difficult for Leicester, but

:06:15.:06:18.

just look what it means to Conte con. -- Antonio Conte. Leicester 0,

:06:19.:06:26.

Chelsea 2. Claudio Ranieri used to admire Antonio Conte as a player. He

:06:27.:06:31.

tried to sign him once. He's been glowing from his praise for Conte as

:06:32.:06:35.

a manager. He somehow has to try to find a way back against his Chelsea

:06:36.:06:40.

team here. Leicester finding it very difficult to get a touch of the ball

:06:41.:06:44.

in this second-half. Moses will reach that. It comes to Alonso! What

:06:45.:06:52.

a story that would have been. Difficult ball for him to hit,

:06:53.:06:56.

coming out of the sky. But the way things are going today, that could

:06:57.:07:00.

easily have flown into the back of the net. Alonso. Almost found

:07:01.:07:16.

Hazard. Kante. Super ball. Moses. It will still come back to Kante.

:07:17.:07:24.

Pedro. Willian's onside, and Pedro has surely sealed it for Chelsea.

:07:25.:07:30.

Leicester didn't deal with that, and Pedro scores his seventh goal of the

:07:31.:07:36.

season. And Chelsea score three without their top-scorer, and look

:07:37.:07:40.

set for an immediate return to winning ways. This was untidy at

:07:41.:07:45.

best from Leicester's point of view. Static here. Pedro, unmarked, had

:07:46.:07:55.

the simple task of heading that into the back of the net. His first goal

:07:56.:08:00.

away from Stamford Bridge this season. Clear clear daylight between

:08:01.:08:12.

them and last year's champions. I guess managers like goals to be

:08:13.:08:24.

shared around the time. When your left-wingback gets to it must be a

:08:25.:08:25.

good day. Into Marcos is a player who is very important. Today he

:08:26.:08:32.

played very well, but not only today because against Tottenham it's not

:08:33.:08:35.

easy. We did this and we must be pleased. We're helping the team to

:08:36.:08:40.

get the wins and working hard to be there. We just got to keep the hard

:08:41.:08:48.

work and keep winning. I think our performance was good, but of course

:08:49.:08:55.

when you concede goals against this team it's difficult to equalise. We

:08:56.:08:59.

tried to do our best. We close all the space, but they found two goals

:09:00.:09:04.

at the beginning of each match and then it was difficult for us. One

:09:05.:09:08.

player missing today, Diego Costa, why wasn't he in the squad today?

:09:09.:09:14.

Diego Costa stopped his training on Tuesday because he felt a pain in

:09:15.:09:17.

his back. He wasn't available for the game. Chelsea fans reading all

:09:18.:09:21.

kind of reports this morning about break down in communication between

:09:22.:09:24.

you and him. Has there been a bustup, is everything OK? But I

:09:25.:09:32.

think that, in this situation, you can listen to a lot of things. In my

:09:33.:09:39.

career, in my experience, as a coach, I always, if there ares

:09:40.:09:44.

problems, I'm used to solving the problems in the changing room. Never

:09:45.:09:50.

during a press conference and, yeah, but I repeat "if", if there are the

:09:51.:09:54.

problems. We will get on to Costa in a moment. Of course, he wasn't on

:09:55.:09:57.

the pitch today, but they didn't miss him. The three upfront more

:09:58.:10:01.

than made up for him. You were waxing lyrical for the match about

:10:02.:10:05.

them? Rightly so. They played on Boxing Day without Costa and these

:10:06.:10:08.

three played upfront and did really well. They took it up a notch today.

:10:09.:10:14.

It was absolutely sublime. See three players play so well on the same

:10:15.:10:19.

day. Their underen staing, their linkup, their rotation. Pedro,

:10:20.:10:22.

Hazard and Willian, you see the three. This is the first goal. What

:10:23.:10:25.

I like about this, the three of them end up in the box, it's well and

:10:26.:10:30.

good-looking pretty with flicks - what a touch from Hazard - you have

:10:31.:10:35.

to have end product. These three had that in abundance. Leicester tried

:10:36.:10:38.

really hard. They did OK in the first half. They had to resort to

:10:39.:10:41.

fouling them and little touches round the corner. Awareness of each

:10:42.:10:46.

other's positions. Each one willing to run behind without the ball as

:10:47.:10:51.

well, which is also important. Their variation in play killed Leicester.

:10:52.:10:56.

This is fantastic counter-attack. Hazard touch, brilliant as always.

:10:57.:11:02.

Good pass from Willian. Pedro has his confidence back, five goals,

:11:03.:11:07.

five assists. More than he got in the whole of last season. You see

:11:08.:11:11.

the confidence with this touch. Every time they looked up they had

:11:12.:11:15.

the option of one of the others. The biggest compliment I can play them

:11:16.:11:21.

is me and Ian Wright were watching and didn't mention Costa once. No.

:11:22.:11:28.

The skill. They actually nearly got in so many times, the intra-Kasse in

:11:29.:11:32.

which they were playing, as I say, the three of them together was

:11:33.:11:36.

absolutely fantastic. They gave the rest of the team the ability to have

:11:37.:11:40.

time on the ball. Leicester had to drop off. They couldn't press, every

:11:41.:11:43.

time they pressed these three would hurt them. This was nearly

:11:44.:11:46.

unbelievable. What a touch from Pedro. I know you love that one.

:11:47.:11:53.

Yes, it was fantastic. I don't think Leicester did too bad. They were on

:11:54.:11:57.

top, top form. Passing the ball and getting the ball with players around

:11:58.:12:00.

them. One touch. We saw it all there. Brilliant today. We have no

:12:01.:12:04.

idea really the truth behind what is going on with Costa. We hear a big

:12:05.:12:10.

money move to China being muted. Him denying it, that isn't at all

:12:11.:12:13.

happened. His manager saying no bustup. Pulled out of training with

:12:14.:12:18.

a bad back. It would from the outside that could unsettle the

:12:19.:12:21.

camp. The performance today would say nod not. Would you be confident

:12:22.:12:29.

of him moving through this season with those three upfront? I'm not

:12:30.:12:33.

sure. We don't know what's happened. For him to come out at this stage,

:12:34.:12:39.

when thee need him so much, it seems very strange. I feel that the way

:12:40.:12:43.

the players, the way the players played today, they looked like they

:12:44.:12:47.

were enjoying it. They didn't his miss him today. The sooner they sort

:12:48.:12:52.

it out the better echlt he has 14 goals. You need someone like that in

:12:53.:12:55.

your team. He seems to have almost tried to derail what is going on.

:12:56.:13:04.

Would you be surprised if he was to be attracted to China at this point

:13:05.:13:11.

in his career? Diego Costa does not strike me as the kind of person who

:13:12.:13:19.

is bothered what people think. There may be some reason, but he is

:13:20.:13:23.

playing in a top club in the top league. It is maybe the money. It

:13:24.:13:29.

does not make much difference to him. Maybe it is his back, but

:13:30.:13:37.

somebody has turned him. 12 months ago you would not have got Leicester

:13:38.:13:42.

players looking at offers like that when they were under way to a title.

:13:43.:13:47.

Today they are not looking at a title, but Claudio Ranieri. They

:13:48.:13:52.

played well. They change the system, they played quite well, but they did

:13:53.:13:56.

not have the quality. I think they will be fine, it was an OK

:13:57.:14:00.

performance, but Chelsea's performance was something else.

:14:01.:14:20.

Spurs have yet to lose at home in the league this season.

:14:21.:14:20.

They faced West Brom, who've not been beaten

:14:21.:14:20.

Spurs have won the league if Dele Alli had not been suspended in

:14:21.:14:23.

April's 1-1 draw. Is there a more informed European midfielder right

:14:24.:14:28.

now? Tottenham revert to the side that beat Chelsea ten days ago.

:14:29.:14:49.

Nacer Chadli makes his first White Hart Lane return. There is a

:14:50.:15:00.

flourish about Tottenham when they are playing well.

:15:01.:15:13.

He came very close. West Bromwich Albion should have stopped the cross

:15:14.:15:20.

coming in. They should have been more aware in the middle. Harry Kane

:15:21.:15:24.

got in behind Gareth McAuley. Very much an attack against defence

:15:25.:15:37.

discipline. Kristin Eriksson had a bit of space, Harry Kane, 1-0. 11

:15:38.:15:44.

minutes gone. To be honest it has been coming. It came on the shoulder

:15:45.:15:55.

of the last defender. Just level. Finished astutely. Goal 13 of the

:15:56.:16:03.

campaign. What a way to celebrate becoming a new dad. Harry Kane for

:16:04.:16:10.

the first time, a goal for Spurs. It has not been easy with the injury to

:16:11.:16:20.

Jonny Evans. They do not beat the first man with a free kick, how

:16:21.:16:21.

disappointing. The flag is up. The first chance

:16:22.:16:39.

created by West Bromwich Albion. Had also left it for Fletcher, that

:16:40.:16:41.

would have been allowed to build up. Deflected and just about kept out by

:16:42.:17:14.

Ben Foster. The West Brom goalkeeper is having a fit campaign. The shot

:17:15.:17:23.

bobbled on its way through. Harry Kane got the touch and Ben Forster

:17:24.:17:33.

got a hold of it. Kristin Ericsson behind brands. Deflected twice and

:17:34.:17:46.

in for Spurs and deservedly so. It is a long afternoon ahead for West

:17:47.:17:47.

Brom. Kristin Ericsson will insist it is

:17:48.:18:02.

his eighth goal of the season. There was a double ricochet and off Gareth

:18:03.:18:08.

McAuley. Ben Foster was wrong-footed. Spurs are very good

:18:09.:18:12.

and coasting. Harry Kane is a real handful today.

:18:13.:18:34.

West Brom are giving it away. It has been a super Spurs performance. It

:18:35.:18:45.

is ruled out by the linesman's flag. Offside. What a lovely move. He just

:18:46.:18:57.

went too early. An imperious flick to put it beyond the goalkeeper.

:18:58.:19:07.

Dele Alli was to his left-hand side. Harry Kane off the post. Spurs have

:19:08.:19:17.

been brilliant. Harry Kane is on fire today. Then Foster had just

:19:18.:19:30.

enough onto the post. Two up, they could have had four or five.

:19:31.:19:42.

A chance for West Bromwich counter. That was not too far away. That was

:19:43.:19:51.

their most meaningful attack of the game, the first real effort they

:19:52.:19:56.

have had on the Spurs goal. It did not hit the target, but it was not

:19:57.:19:57.

far away. It is a corner kick. Toby Alderweireld was allowed to

:19:58.:20:26.

turn. Again they are denied by Foster. Twice he denies Tottenham

:20:27.:20:37.

Hotspur. With his leg first of all. Then it bounced horribly in front of

:20:38.:20:46.

him. He was a bit fortunate. Fortune favours the brave. He has had a good

:20:47.:20:49.

game and a good season, Ben Foster. Harry Kane is in the middle and he

:20:50.:21:11.

wraps it up. Given away cheaply by West Bromwich Albion, but finished

:21:12.:21:16.

in real style. For West Bromwich Albion there is no way back now.

:21:17.:21:28.

Walker with the steel and the prison and Harry Kane with the finish. 3-0.

:21:29.:21:40.

Tottenham have had 20 attempts on the West Bromwich Albion goal. 11 of

:21:41.:21:46.

them have been on target. West Brom are yet to force a save from Hugo

:21:47.:21:48.

Lloris. Harry Kane with a hat-trick! That is

:21:49.:22:09.

it. What a week it has been for him. Brilliantly set up by Dele Alli.

:22:10.:22:22.

Impudently done, extravagantly done. Two goals in four minutes for Harry

:22:23.:22:31.

Kane. It makes it a handsome victory for Spurs. A Harry Kane match ball,

:22:32.:22:39.

a Harry Kane hat-trick, Harry Kane changing nappies tonight. I am a new

:22:40.:22:45.

dad. It is a good feeling and what a great way to finish the week off.

:22:46.:22:50.

Mentally and physically where you OK, because a become completely ruin

:22:51.:22:56.

your stride. We have been fine, the little girl is great, I have got a

:22:57.:23:03.

good wife, getting up in the middle of the night. It has been a busy

:23:04.:23:09.

week, but once I have enjoyed. It was amazing the way they played. The

:23:10.:23:18.

feeling the team translated to the stands. It was 45 minutes of amazing

:23:19.:23:25.

football and I am very pleased because it was amazing. If you come

:23:26.:23:31.

to these grounds against these teams you have to be at your best, not

:23:32.:23:35.

just technically, but mentally as well, and we were not today. If you

:23:36.:23:42.

are not on it at these grounds, they will punish you. We gave some sloppy

:23:43.:23:46.

goals away, we never really got going. I do not take anything away

:23:47.:23:52.

from Tottenham, they are a good team and good luck to them for the rest

:23:53.:23:55.

of the season. It was a bad day for us. We are on a great run of form at

:23:56.:24:01.

the minute. We need to keep it up, we cannot afford to drop any points.

:24:02.:24:06.

The teams around us always seemed to be winning and we have to make sure

:24:07.:24:10.

we are as well. Straight league wins, equalling their own record,

:24:11.:24:14.

Harry Kane with the record, but you want to look at the wingbacks. You

:24:15.:24:19.

feel they were instrumental in everything they did today. Yes, they

:24:20.:24:26.

were. These two have consolidated under Chelsea. Rose and Walker,

:24:27.:24:32.

especially at home, they are unbelievable. We could have picked

:24:33.:24:40.

out a few, but these two are the ones in particular. You will see

:24:41.:24:47.

Danny Rose on the left. They had a thankless task trying to deal with

:24:48.:24:52.

Danny Rose, arguably one of the best left-back in Europe at the moment. A

:24:53.:24:56.

great ball in and Harry Kane should score. This is brilliant, the

:24:57.:25:00.

communique said, they have obviously had words. Watch this pass from Toby

:25:01.:25:09.

Alderweireld. Absolutely fantastic. They get a corner out of it. He has

:25:10.:25:15.

got his man there. He does not get close enough. He is doing this all

:25:16.:25:26.

day. Nacer Chadli. This is the goal. Once you have got the insurance of

:25:27.:25:30.

one Yama and Mousa Dembele, you can go forward and play. That was a

:25:31.:25:35.

great pass from Kristin Ericsson and look who pops up on the right-hand

:25:36.:25:41.

side, Danny Rose again. They got a little bit of luck here, but they

:25:42.:25:45.

deserve the luck. They were brilliant today. Kyle Walker has

:25:46.:25:50.

been having a nightmare of a month. Olivier Giroud pinned him at

:25:51.:25:54.

Arsenal, but now you see his determination. A great cross into

:25:55.:25:58.

Dele Alli and that is a great finish. Just brilliant. They were

:25:59.:26:06.

really good. Spurs' last ten goals have been scored by Harry Kane or

:26:07.:26:10.

Dele Alli, and he impressed you today even though he was not on the

:26:11.:26:15.

scoresheet. There is nothing he cannot do, this lad. He is athletic,

:26:16.:26:21.

he scores goals, he is confident at the moment. I know he loves these

:26:22.:26:26.

little nutmeg. Poor old fletch. It has happened to me at times and I

:26:27.:26:31.

know how he feels. He is just playing with freedom. He is enjoying

:26:32.:26:39.

it. Look at this, fantastic. He is getting better. I did not know he

:26:40.:26:46.

had this type of quality and vision, but he is just getting better. Look

:26:47.:26:52.

at that for a pass. A great scoop, it makes it easy for Harry Kane.

:26:53.:27:01.

They were all brilliant. A day to forget for West Brom.

:27:02.:27:07.

Swansea's new boss, Paul Clement, took charge at the Liberty Stadium

:27:08.:27:33.

for the first time since replacing Bob Bradley.

:27:34.:27:34.

Opponents Arsenal began the day in fifth, eight

:27:35.:27:36.

COMMENTATOR: Neighan Dyer who won the title on-loan at Leicester City

:27:37.:27:48.

last season makes only his second start in the league for Swansea in

:27:49.:27:52.

the current campaign while Stephen Kingsley plays at full-back with

:27:53.:27:57.

Taylor suffering a fractured cheek bone in tlang. Mesut Ozil returns

:27:58.:28:01.

for Arsenal after missing three matches through illness. Olivier

:28:02.:28:04.

Giroud who signed a new contract this week is in fine form with a

:28:05.:28:10.

goal in each of the last four games. Task number one you would think for

:28:11.:28:19.

Paul Clemmit is to put out a Swansea side with greater resilient i, a

:28:20.:28:23.

side that doesn't crumble at the back. Naughton's long ball. Could

:28:24.:28:30.

get Nathan Dyer away, Koscielny is right on him. Sigurdsson well

:28:31.:28:35.

forward. Routledge and Llorente in the centre. Well saved there by

:28:36.:28:39.

Cech. First attempt on goal in the match. It's come from the home team,

:28:40.:28:44.

Kyle Naughton involved in both end of the field. Almost finishing off

:28:45.:28:49.

the move. This effort here, palmed away at full stretch. Paul Clemmit

:28:50.:28:56.

is quick to add to his backroom staff there the very familiar figure

:28:57.:29:02.

of Claude. Kingsley, Routledge. Good play by Wayne Routledge. Support -

:29:03.:29:09.

Sigurdsson! Second decent attempt on goal from Swansea City in the first

:29:10.:29:14.

13 minutes or so. I have to say, Arsenal have barely got out of

:29:15.:29:17.

second gear here so far in this game. They haven't tested Fabianski

:29:18.:29:25.

so far. Is that about to change? Here's Sanchez. Good one. Saved at

:29:26.:29:32.

the near-post by Lukasz Fabianski. Liberty Stadium looking a picture at

:29:33.:29:35.

the moment. I wonder what's at the end of that? Premier League survive,

:29:36.:29:40.

of course would do Paul clement very nicely indeed. Naughton. In to Dyer.

:29:41.:29:51.

Surrounded and dispossessed. Ozil now finds Ramsey. He's got Iwobi

:29:52.:30:01.

alongside him. Ramsey, right across the face of goal. Somehow Giroud

:30:02.:30:06.

couldn't make contact with it. This is Sanchez. Alarm bells for Swansea.

:30:07.:30:13.

The header from Ozil. It's in from Olivier Giroud. After all the good

:30:14.:30:17.

work for Swansea City, Arsenal make the breakthrough. From the look on

:30:18.:30:22.

his face it would appear it might be the last contribution that Olivier

:30:23.:30:25.

Giroud makes to the game. They have barely got out of second gear here

:30:26.:30:30.

in this first half, but against the run of play, Arsenal force the

:30:31.:30:34.

breakthrough here. Ramsey with the ball across. Giroud couldn't quite

:30:35.:30:38.

make contact the first time. Loitering on the edge of the

:30:39.:30:41.

six-yard box. He snapped at the chance and buried it. So Olivier

:30:42.:30:46.

Giroud has scored in each of the last five games now for Arsenal.

:30:47.:30:51.

He's also scored on each of his last nine starts for the Gunners. It's

:30:52.:30:58.

Swansea 0, Arsenal 1. Despite indicating he wanted to come off it

:30:59.:31:01.

looks as if Giroud is in fact staying on the pitch. Pitch. Dyer

:31:02.:31:08.

with the ball in. Llorente. Down he goes. Swansea City do not have a

:31:09.:31:18.

penalty. Ki Sung-Yueng has a yellow card for simulation. Here it is once

:31:19.:31:21.

again. This is Lorne Llorente with the turn into Ki Sung-Yueng. Coming

:31:22.:31:29.

together with the boot of Laurent Koscielny. The referee felt he was

:31:30.:31:33.

looking for this one. Yeah, it is was the final angle that gave us the

:31:34.:31:36.

evidence we were looking for. Well spotted there by the officials. Not

:31:37.:31:45.

a good ball. Collected by Dyer. White shirts swarming forward. Dyer

:31:46.:31:49.

send it over the top of the crossbar. Another cross field ball

:31:50.:31:54.

goes awry, but once more they get away with it.

:31:55.:32:01.

Ozil. Finding Sanchez. Iwobi in the centre. Three, four, five also there

:32:02.:32:12.

for Arsenal. Giroud is one of them. Here's Sanchez. Lovely ball. Great

:32:13.:32:24.

chance, fine save by Fabianski to deny Aaron Ramsey. The pressure is

:32:25.:32:25.

still on. Iwobi. The deflection sends it behind. Lovely ball in. The

:32:26.:32:32.

turn from Ramsey. Fabianski with the initial save there. Victory today

:32:33.:32:35.

would give Arsenal the double over Swansea for only the second time.

:32:36.:32:48.

1982-83. Fabianski goes for it. Sanchez, away by Llorente.

:32:49.:32:51.

Sigurdsson can't turn. Still with Arsenal. Iwobi. It's blocked, and

:32:52.:32:56.

it's curled into the back of the net. The block took the sting out of

:32:57.:33:03.

the shot, but it redirected it over the top of Lukasz Fabianski and into

:33:04.:33:08.

the back of the net. Arsenal's sustained pressure at the start of

:33:09.:33:18.

this second-half pays off. Arsenal swarming forward at every available

:33:19.:33:21.

opportunity. The ball ricochetting off Jack Cork. Here it is once

:33:22.:33:25.

again, Iwobi attempts to put the ball in and the block merely

:33:26.:33:29.

redirects it over the top of Swansea's goalkeeper and beyond his

:33:30.:33:34.

reach. Olivier Giroud forced out of the match with a foot injury.

:33:35.:33:43.

Heavily strapped ankle. Looking for Sigurdsson. Cut out. Collected by

:33:44.:33:50.

Alex Iwobi. Arsenal just pose a threat every time they come forward.

:33:51.:33:55.

Oh, it's deflected in off Kyle Naughton. There's no doubt that's an

:33:56.:34:04.

own-goal. Once again, it is Alex Iwobi with the shot on goal, just as

:34:05.:34:08.

it was minutes before. And, for the second time in a row, his shot takes

:34:09.:34:13.

a wicked deflection, which carries the ball past Lukasz Fabianski. But

:34:14.:34:18.

more importantly for Arsenal, it means they now lead Swansea 3-0. The

:34:19.:34:25.

journey down the M4 looks like it's been a worthwhile one for those

:34:26.:34:29.

travelling supporters. Arsenal look as if they might do something every

:34:30.:34:34.

time they go forward. Iwobi, beautiful play. Now it's Alex

:34:35.:34:38.

Oxlade-Chamberlain. Ramsey tries to shoot. Sanchez does, Arsenal lead by

:34:39.:34:46.

4-0. It is turning into something of a rout here in this second-half.

:34:47.:34:51.

Alexis Sanchez has his 16th goal of the season. Brilliant build-up,

:34:52.:34:56.

lovely pass from Iwobi. Collected by Oxlade-Chamberlain. Ramsey beaten to

:34:57.:35:01.

the initial shooting opportunity, but there you see the ball going in

:35:02.:35:08.

Sanchez general direction. He only needs half a chance, doesn't he? How

:35:09.:35:25.

many times have we seen that. The interception for Alexis Sanchez, who

:35:26.:35:26.

makes it four. Worrying situation for Swansea. They have now conceded

:35:27.:35:27.

at least three goals in seven of the last nine matches they've played.

:35:28.:35:28.

Iwobi with the ball out wide. Here's Oxlade-Chamberlain. Welbeck and

:35:29.:35:32.

Perez in the centre. Back towards Welbeck. Just behind him. Cleared

:35:33.:35:37.

away by Sigurdsson, only as far as Xhaka. He brings a save from

:35:38.:35:43.

Fabianski. Good shot, fine save. Well-struck by the Swiss

:35:44.:35:49.

international. A decent save, too. Brooding and quietly steaming in a

:35:50.:35:55.

corner there, Alexis Sanchez. His Eden Hazard loves playing hitch

:35:56.:36:02.

didn't want to come off at all. Sigurdsson. He's done well, just

:36:03.:36:09.

over the top. That's the best we have seen from Swansea City for

:36:10.:36:15.

quite some time in this match. Paul clement's first league match will

:36:16.:36:22.

end with a heavy defeat. For long periods we looked solid defensively.

:36:23.:36:25.

Didn't do enough on the attacking side. We had a big claim for a

:36:26.:36:30.

penalty, having looked back at it, I have that luxury, it's a penalty.

:36:31.:36:33.

You know, Arsenal were better than us on the day. How difficult is if

:36:34.:36:40.

to pick them up? We all have a can difficult job on our hands. We get

:36:41.:36:44.

back on the training field and work on bet getting the basics right. If

:36:45.:36:47.

you keep working hard and get the organisation right you have a better

:36:48.:36:51.

chance. I think the first half was very intense physically and Swansea

:36:52.:36:54.

played very well. They gave a lot in the first half to stop us from

:36:55.:36:57.

playing and they did it very, very well. And, they are technically a

:36:58.:37:03.

good side. In the second-half our pace took over and maybe we were

:37:04.:37:07.

fortunate on one or two goals as well, but we were dominating the

:37:08.:37:10.

game after. Were you a goalscorer? At least one of them, I'm claiming

:37:11.:37:14.

the first one at least, I was on target. I would like to claim that.

:37:15.:37:20.

The second one I can let slide. The first was my goal. He has neither.

:37:21.:37:24.

If we talk about Mesut Ozil, you were impressed by his contribution.

:37:25.:37:28.

A lot said about his contract negotiations, he missed games

:37:29.:37:31.

through illness as well? They missed him for a few games. He made a real

:37:32.:37:35.

difference today. Swansea deserve credit for the first half,

:37:36.:37:39.

definitely. But he was exceptional in crucial areas of the pitch 82

:37:40.:37:45.

touches, he makes the right decisionsing nine times out of ten.

:37:46.:37:49.

Picks Sanchez out. Great ball there. This is early in the game, actually

:37:50.:37:54.

in the first half Arsenal didn't create too much. Anything they did

:37:55.:37:57.

create was through him. He was up for it. He took the ball in his own

:37:58.:38:03.

half. Nice bits of skill. Watch this for a touch. That is what he gives

:38:04.:38:07.

you, that quality in the final third. I know there is a loft people

:38:08.:38:10.

who say he doesn't turn up in the big games, he was back today. I

:38:11.:38:13.

think they are a better team when he is in it. OK he gets lucky with the

:38:14.:38:19.

header there. Right foot. Always clinical with his passing. Always

:38:20.:38:25.

sees it. Runs without the ball, crucial when you are playing that

:38:26.:38:29.

role. You can't be prepredictable, always to feet. He was unlucky today

:38:30.:38:33.

with some of the runs he made. He didn't quite get the right pass, but

:38:34.:38:38.

him and Sanchez together make Arsenal an exceptional team and a

:38:39.:38:43.

really dangerous team. When he he is not there, they don't quite have

:38:44.:38:46.

that same cutting edge. They get a bit of luck... The scoreline

:38:47.:38:51.

flattered them a little bit. I was impressed with him today considering

:38:52.:38:54.

he had three games out. Paul clement doesn't agree with the referee, he

:38:55.:38:59.

thinks Swansea should have had a penalty, what was your take? Is

:39:00.:39:02.

sdmoo Paul said he saw it and thought it was a penalty. I don't

:39:03.:39:05.

agree with him. I think, yes, Koscielny sticks his foot out, what

:39:06.:39:11.

Ki does he he searches for the foot. You see, Koscielny's foot comes, he

:39:12.:39:15.

plants it, he searches. He kicks the foot for me, Ki, I think the referee

:39:16.:39:21.

has it right. I can feel Swansea fans - it's Arsenal you are sticking

:39:22.:39:31.

up. If I was Paul I would want that. That is it. You see a lot of

:39:32.:39:34.

penalties where the players do the same thing and they are given. They

:39:35.:39:38.

will feel hard done by. I didn't think that was a penalty. One

:39:39.:39:42.

incident we should talk about and have a look again. Sanchez

:39:43.:39:48.

instrumental in many things. World-class player, but Brilliant.

:39:49.:39:52.

Not very happy about being taken off when his team were 4-0 up. You can

:39:53.:39:56.

see his face. He is disappointed. He doesn't want to be taken off. When

:39:57.:39:59.

you have the contract talk and everything going on. He is integral

:40:00.:40:04.

to Arsenal. If he was gone, as much as they say Ozil, if he is not

:40:05.:40:08.

there, there is a massive problem. You see that picture. He doesn't

:40:09.:40:11.

want to be taken off. He wants to continuously play. I hope it's not

:40:12.:40:15.

something that they are using as excuses for him to get out of the

:40:16.:40:19.

club and maybe his representatives and stuff... Arsene Wenger say it's

:40:20.:40:23.

cultural and different cultures react differently. If we put it down

:40:24.:40:28.

to now. Paul clement, you know him well, he has a big task in hand.

:40:29.:40:33.

There are games he expects to win, maybe that wasn't one anyway? That

:40:34.:40:36.

is fair. He will be on the training pitch as long as he can be. He's a

:40:37.:40:41.

work aholic. He's got great attention to detail. I think he will

:40:42.:40:45.

be quite savvy in the next few weeks in the transfer market. They will

:40:46.:40:49.

improve. They did in the first half. Whether it will be enough, I am

:40:50.:40:56.

anticipate not sure. Tough job. Job. I'm not sure.

:40:57.:40:59.

West Ham playmaker Dimitri Payet missed the game against

:41:00.:41:01.

Crystal Palace after manager Slaven Bilic said the Frenchman no

:41:02.:41:04.

Palace arrived at the London Stadium just one point

:41:05.:41:08.

COMMENTATOR: Joint chairman's notes are emphatic, they will not sell

:41:09.:41:17.

Dimitri Payet this transfer window. The onus shifts to Andy Carroll to

:41:18.:41:21.

be the tallsyman. He was signed back in 2013 by Sam Allardyce when he was

:41:22.:41:26.

the Hammers boss. Allardyce himself has been dismissive regarding

:41:27.:41:29.

speculation about Christian Benteke, who he says quite simply is going

:41:30.:41:37.

nowhere. Palace's record signing is their top-scorer despites ming a

:41:38.:41:40.

penalty last month in Allardyce's first match in charge against

:41:41.:41:47.

Watford. We are inside the last 20 minutes of a first half that has

:41:48.:41:55.

been bereft of chances, really. Here's Feghouli. Noble. Getting away

:41:56.:42:01.

from Ward and driving West Ham forward. And Carroll! Well, that's

:42:02.:42:07.

the best move of the match by a mile. Carroll is very disappointed

:42:08.:42:11.

that he couldn't get over the top of it. Good move, West Ham. He's maybe

:42:12.:42:19.

woken this crowd up. A quarter of an hour to go. Just really one

:42:20.:42:24.

opportunity for Andy Carroll to reflect upon thus far. Palace

:42:25.:42:31.

haven't really offered anything. Here's Puncheon though to try and

:42:32.:42:39.

change that. Away by Collins. Good connection. Randolph was in a good

:42:40.:42:43.

position to gather it. It's just as as well as he was because Cabaye

:42:44.:42:48.

hits this as truly as he would intended.

:42:49.:42:59.

A little break for Townsend again and then he is caught and it is a

:43:00.:43:19.

free kick for Crystal Palace. You can trace this pattern of play all

:43:20.:43:23.

the way back to Mark Noble's miss timed pass on halfway. And it ends

:43:24.:43:31.

on a yellow card for a mistimed tackle a few minutes' later. Of all

:43:32.:43:41.

players, West Ham kid who spent the vast of his career with the Hammers,

:43:42.:43:45.

it could have come back to want them here. What a chance.

:43:46.:44:09.

It is a great ball by Andy Carroll. He was put under pressure and it is

:44:10.:44:17.

a corner. Well defended by Tomkins. Excellent defending. Tomkins only

:44:18.:44:29.

straight to Sofiane Feghouli. Free kick to West Ham. They have played

:44:30.:44:36.

three games in a row without scoring. Prior to that they had won

:44:37.:44:42.

three in a row in the Premier League. Swansea, Hull and Burnley.

:44:43.:44:48.

They want to recapture that form again. That was Andy Carroll, but it

:44:49.:44:56.

was wide. He moved it from right to left and drove it wide.

:44:57.:45:13.

He was onside and the shot was pretty good. Only he will know for

:45:14.:45:20.

sure if he was going for the spectacular into the corner. Antonio

:45:21.:45:30.

Cesaro side. He will get there in front of Hennessy. And it is turned

:45:31.:45:39.

in by Sofiane Feghouli. And in a game of precious few opportunities

:45:40.:45:46.

might it be enough to win it but Mark round the goalkeeper and

:45:47.:45:52.

Antonio was going for glory, but there was Sofiane Feghouli and West

:45:53.:45:57.

Ham are in front. David Sullivan has backed exactly what his manager said

:45:58.:46:03.

about the Dimitri Payet situation. He ain't going nowhere. What he

:46:04.:46:07.

wanted today was a response from his players and they have responded.

:46:08.:46:25.

Andy Carroll on the far side. Oh, that is tremendous! Just sit back

:46:26.:46:37.

and admire this sensational goal. Andy Carroll has been to reflect

:46:38.:46:43.

today. He has scored one of the best goals that this stadium has

:46:44.:46:51.

witnessed. And you can hear the second roar from the West Ham

:46:52.:46:55.

supporters who are watching on the big screen and it is worth watching

:46:56.:47:07.

over and over again. He has provided an absolute sumptuous Dimitri Payet

:47:08.:47:12.

style goal. He can still provide moments of sheer class.

:47:13.:47:26.

Antonio and in space on the left-hand side is Manuel Lanzini.

:47:27.:47:39.

Oh, lovely. It is a wonderful West Ham response to a troubled week at

:47:40.:47:44.

the club. Two fantastic West Ham goals in this second half, both with

:47:45.:47:49.

a technique that you would have wanted to savour. This enormous West

:47:50.:47:57.

Ham United crowd will go away from the London stadium and they will

:47:58.:48:00.

remember this afternoon very fondly indeed. It is a pride, the

:48:01.:48:10.

overriding emotion? Yes, that is a good word, it is pride, it is

:48:11.:48:16.

everything. I would like to congratulate the guys. They showed

:48:17.:48:20.

basically everything we asked them for. OK, the first half was a

:48:21.:48:26.

nervous one and all that, but together with the crowd, they were

:48:27.:48:33.

banned Davison from the kick-off. We gave everything and in the second

:48:34.:48:40.

half we were magnificent. The concentration and the way you play

:48:41.:48:44.

has to last for the whole period of the game and unfortunately for us we

:48:45.:48:49.

gifted two and then three. If you gift them, you will not get

:48:50.:48:54.

anywhere. It is a bitterly disappointing end to what looked

:48:55.:48:58.

like a comfortable performance. How do you rate that amongst your goals?

:48:59.:49:03.

I think it has got to be the best one I have scored. It is one of the

:49:04.:49:07.

important ones for the club and for me it is fantastic and I am happy

:49:08.:49:11.

with the result and the way the lads play. After the 5-0 drubbing in the

:49:12.:49:18.

FA Cup last week it was really important, and with the Dimitri

:49:19.:49:22.

Payet stuff as well, and it came eventually, a good performance. Yes,

:49:23.:49:28.

it did. It was quite the poor game with the midfielder is getting

:49:29.:49:32.

beyond the ball. On this occasion Mark Noble does do it as we can see.

:49:33.:49:36.

Sofiane Feghouli had a fantastic game today. Andy Carroll is the only

:49:37.:49:43.

one in the box and he picks out really well, but unfortunately he

:49:44.:49:47.

could not keep it down. He worked really hard today and that is what

:49:48.:49:51.

the West Ham fans wanted. They wanted to see people chasing and

:49:52.:49:56.

working hard. Andy Carroll forces the goalkeeper into a rushed cake

:49:57.:50:00.

and they get the possession that. That was a superb pass. It is super

:50:01.:50:09.

stuff. Sofiane Feghouli had a really good game today. The West Ham fans

:50:10.:50:12.

will be pleased with his contribution. Tomkins had a super

:50:13.:50:18.

defensive header. When they got the ball in the box, Crystal Palace have

:50:19.:50:28.

all sorts of problems. They could not deal with it. This is a good

:50:29.:50:33.

cross. Tomkins had a really good game. Then Andy Carroll comes in

:50:34.:50:39.

with a fantastic strike. That is as good as I have seen. That is the

:50:40.:50:47.

best contact. Unbelievable. That was better contact than Wayne Rooney's

:50:48.:50:52.

against Manchester City. I know it was a bigger game. And just rewards

:50:53.:50:59.

for his contribution. His manager needed it, the club needed it, it

:51:00.:51:04.

was a great performance. It is not quite the same as Diego Costa, but

:51:05.:51:08.

there are parallels with Dimitri Payet and the club and the fans are

:51:09.:51:12.

disappointed with how this is panning out with him. How will it be

:51:13.:51:18.

resolved? What will happen? The fact he said I do not want to be here,

:51:19.:51:25.

they have got to get rid of him. Keeping him would be cutting off

:51:26.:51:28.

their nose to despite their face. They cannot afford him. He is a

:51:29.:51:33.

great player and they did wonders with him and he did wonders for

:51:34.:51:39.

them, but take the money. Whatever happens, the promises broken. You do

:51:40.:51:43.

not say I do not want to play for the club any more. It was not a good

:51:44.:51:47.

day for Crystal Palace and big Sam has only had a return of one point.

:51:48.:51:52.

They have not experienced that bounce they were expecting. Today

:51:53.:51:57.

they were quite disappointing. Christian Benteke, for Sam he is a

:51:58.:52:03.

big man, get the ball into him and get some second balls and they are

:52:04.:52:08.

not doing it. We saw it happening with Andy Carroll, but it is not

:52:09.:52:11.

happening with him, they have got to do it quickly.

:52:12.:52:16.

Make a note, Match of the Day 2 moves to BBC Two this week,

:52:17.:52:19.

an early start time as well, at 10.00pm.

:52:20.:52:33.

5 Live and the BBC Sport website will have commentary

:52:34.:52:35.

of Manchester United versus Liverpool at 4.00pm.

:52:36.:52:38.

There's live football on Tuesday when non-league Lincoln take

:52:39.:52:41.

on Ipswich Town in the FA Cup Third round replay, BBC One at 8.00pm.

:52:42.:52:44.

That's followed by Cup highlights on Wednesday,

:52:45.:52:47.

including Liverpool's trip to Plymouth, 10.45pm on BBC One.

:52:48.:52:50.

Scotland is the best. They are our main players. Nelson, Robert the

:52:51.:53:11.

Bruce, James Joyce, Tom Jones. Jonny Wilkinson's feed. We built the

:53:12.:53:19.

Titanic. We invented the bicycle. Dragons. The kilt. Bagpipes. Spotted

:53:20.:53:35.

Dick. The six Nations starts on the 4th of February across the BBC.

:53:36.:53:41.

Bottom of the table Hull had new manager Marco Silva in charge

:53:42.:53:43.

for the first time in the Premier League.

:53:44.:53:46.

They faced Bournemouth who won the reverse fixture

:53:47.:53:48.

Martin Fisher was at the KCOM Stadium.

:53:49.:53:56.

COMMENTATOR: The serious stuff starts here for new boss Marco

:53:57.:54:02.

Silva. He is boosted by the return of a Belle Hernandez who makes his

:54:03.:54:09.

first start in over two months. There is a more familiar look to

:54:10.:54:12.

Bournemouth after those wholesale changes in the FA Cup that backfired

:54:13.:54:21.

so badly last weekend. Artur Boruc makes his 100th Premier League

:54:22.:54:25.

appearance and it is the first Premier League start for Tyrone

:54:26.:54:29.

Mings, 17 months after he signed for the club.

:54:30.:54:41.

Dawson got just enough on that. Here is Jack Wilshere for Bournemouth.

:54:42.:54:52.

And Fraser goes down under the challenge of McAuley and it is a

:54:53.:54:58.

penalty. Yet another soft penalty conceded by Hull City this season.

:54:59.:55:06.

Inside 100 seconds. McGuire's challenge on Fraser and the referee

:55:07.:55:10.

was in the perfect position to see it and give it and that is the tenth

:55:11.:55:14.

penalty that Hull City have conceded this season. Junior Stanislav scored

:55:15.:55:22.

from the spot in the 6-1 win against Hull City back in October. He has

:55:23.:55:28.

not scored a goal since. He puts this one away. He put it away with

:55:29.:55:38.

consummate ease. It was always going to be a hard afternoon for Hull

:55:39.:55:43.

City. It has just become a whole lot more difficult. Marco Silva was only

:55:44.:55:51.

appointed nine days ago. He is a surprise choice, but he has

:55:52.:55:52.

succeeded everywhere he has been. That was not far wide. He had a bit

:55:53.:56:17.

of room, he got away from Snodgrass. Hull City will always be a special

:56:18.:56:22.

club for Eddie Howe. He made his first ever appearance as a player

:56:23.:56:24.

against Bournemouth in December 95. Junior Stanislas is in there.

:56:25.:56:38.

McGuire will get it away eventually. Andy Robertson had a bit of time. He

:56:39.:57:24.

fires its end. And they have the equaliser through Fernandez. That is

:57:25.:57:31.

what his return might bring for Hull City, the ability to find the back

:57:32.:57:35.

of the net. A decent build-up starting with the goalkeeper. That

:57:36.:57:46.

was a lovely reverse ball. Full is to now Hull City are right back in

:57:47.:57:48.

the game at 1-1. What a shot. Abel Hernandez with his

:57:49.:58:08.

second of the afternoon. Look at that celebration. Look at the way he

:58:09.:58:15.

attacked Tyrone Mings from the off here. Knew what he was about. Got it

:58:16.:58:22.

on his left boot and - bang, Boruc has no chance whatsoever. Hull City

:58:23.:58:27.

are 2-1 in front, five minutes into the second-half. Arter. Huddlestone.

:58:28.:58:37.

Neat for Maguire. Up the line for Diomande. Lovely football at the

:58:38.:58:41.

moment from Hull. Hernandez, Snodgrass and Clucas all interested.

:58:42.:58:46.

Hernandez got his head to it. Well, this is lovely stuff from Hull. They

:58:47.:58:52.

are looking anything but a team anchored to the foot of the Premier

:58:53.:58:57.

League table at the moment. He doesn't speak the best English,

:58:58.:59:01.

Marco Silva, whatever he said to his team at the break, he got the

:59:02.:59:08.

message across. Poor challenge from Smith. Pretty much been all Hull

:59:09.:59:18.

City since the second-half got under way. 2-1 they lead, Snodgrass with

:59:19.:59:34.

the cross. It will drop here for Huddlestone. A good shot - it's in.

:59:35.:59:34.

It came off a Bournemouth player. Tyrone Mings, his first ever Premier

:59:35.:59:35.

League start. He scores the own-goal. Tom Huddlestone's gamble

:59:36.:59:40.

to try the volley pays off. It's three years since Tom Huddlestone

:59:41.:59:42.

last scored a Premier League goal here. He might try and claim this

:59:43.:59:46.

one. But that touch from Mings is the decisive one. Hull City have

:59:47.:59:51.

scored two quick goals at the start of this second-half and, suddenly,

:59:52.:59:52.

they are romping away with it. King. Slides away from Dawson. Into

:59:53.:00:09.

the box, and feeding Pew. He goes down. Shot was accurate from

:00:10.:00:14.

Wilshere. Well dealt with by Jakupovic. Bournemouth felt they

:00:15.:00:17.

might have had a penalty in the build-up to this. This challenge, as

:00:18.:00:22.

he went down, Wilshere took on the shot. That didn't look too

:00:23.:00:26.

dissimilar to the one that was given in the first few minutes of the

:00:27.:00:31.

game. I feel happen yip, what I saw in the game I saw one team with a

:00:32.:00:36.

big, big speed, it's important be for me. Very happy with it because

:00:37.:00:46.

they worked. Happy really when I saw the fantastic behaviour with our

:00:47.:00:50.

fans. For me it's important also. Disappointed with the first goal,

:00:51.:00:53.

disappointed with all three, that is the story of our run. They think

:00:54.:00:59.

we've been bad defensively, any chance we conceded they have taken.

:01:00.:01:03.

We conceded three goals again. Again, that must be alarming to you

:01:04.:01:10.

minute. The number of teams who score three against you? There seems

:01:11.:01:13.

to be a pattern emerging defensively. Something we have to

:01:14.:01:19.

put right quickly. You are off the bottom-of-the-table. How important

:01:20.:01:21.

is that psychologically? It is. The main thing is the points, we need to

:01:22.:01:25.

get as lose to 40 points as soon as possible. As I say,let three points

:01:26.:01:31.

today, because none of the teams got too far away from it it puts us in a

:01:32.:01:37.

decent motion position and back in the mix. That is the bounce we are

:01:38.:01:42.

talking about that Sam Allardyce didn't have with Crystal Palace,

:01:43.:01:45.

they will be delighted with that? Yeah. I thought they were good

:01:46.:01:48.

today. Especially going a goal down. It showed a lot of character coming

:01:49.:01:53.

back. It's goals. That is what they needed. Hernandez nicked a few in

:01:54.:01:58.

the Championship. He stays in the middle of the goal. He stays in the

:01:59.:02:02.

middle of the pitch. Is sounds obvious that. When you look at

:02:03.:02:07.

Benteke and people, you know what I'm saying, he doesn't stay in the

:02:08.:02:11.

middle of the pitch. When you have a ball put in like that. You have a

:02:12.:02:17.

chance to do that. He is in the middle being the vocal point. Javier

:02:18.:02:23.

Hernandez is on fire running at you. He knows he wants to get on his left

:02:24.:02:27.

foot. He moves it quick, hits it quick there. It's a really good

:02:28.:02:31.

finish. It's what they need. Hernandez's first game back since

:02:32.:02:34.

the beginning of November. They have missed him and his potential goal

:02:35.:02:39.

threat? Absolutely. He is a goalscorer. He gets his header and

:02:40.:02:43.

running at the defenders. Pretty quick and sharp and knows where the

:02:44.:02:47.

goal is. Eddie Howe sounded down, "there is a pattern emerging, I have

:02:48.:02:54.

to look at this." To concede those goals, they had a great run of form

:02:55.:02:57.

before that? Huge. They rested everybody for the Cup game last

:02:58.:03:01.

week, ready for this game. You couldn't tell that in that

:03:02.:03:05.

performance. The way they capitulated in games I have seen

:03:06.:03:11.

recently is a worry moving forward. They have to stop conceding goals so

:03:12.:03:15.

easily. Too easy to play against. OK.

:03:16.:03:17.

Sunderland, who began the day in the bottom three,

:03:18.:03:19.

Mark Hughes's men have never won a league game at the Stadium

:03:20.:03:23.

COMMENTATOR: If you are good enough, you are old enough, in Jermain Defoe

:03:24.:03:34.

case more or less invaluable for Sunderland. 11 goals this season, he

:03:35.:03:39.

has scored in his last two Premier League games as his former club and

:03:40.:03:45.

country colleague Peter Crouch. He has earned a new contract until the

:03:46.:03:49.

end of next season. He will be 36 at the end of this month. Inn with the

:03:50.:03:54.

season only just into its second-half, it's another high

:03:55.:03:58.

pressure day on Wearside. This time of the year is when the ride really

:03:59.:04:03.

begins for Sunderland. They are used to that, it's happened Forfar too

:04:04.:04:13.

many years in a row. Johnson. Good ball in from Johnson. Crouch was met

:04:14.:04:18.

by Donald Love. Look at Peter Crouch's expression. That tells you

:04:19.:04:23.

what a good chance it was for him. On to the shoulder and against to

:04:24.:04:28.

Donald Love. Credit to the full-back though. Mark Hughes had stressedlet

:04:29.:04:34.

need to get their act together this week. Encouraging signs now from the

:04:35.:04:41.

Stoke team. Another groan for Sunderland for giving the ball away.

:04:42.:04:47.

This could be Costly. Arnautovic. Stopped by the boot of Mannone. The

:04:48.:04:52.

Stoke pressure has been mounting. Hughes team have their reward for

:04:53.:04:57.

taking control of the game by taking the lead. Arnie is the chant. Vito

:04:58.:05:08.

Mannone dug him out once, the shot found the target. Only his third

:05:09.:05:14.

goal this season. It's made it Sunderland 0, Stoke City 1.

:05:15.:05:18.

Shawcross. O'Shea. Crouch. Penned in the corner by Borini. That

:05:19.:05:33.

was the aim. Great play from the Austrian. Played

:05:34.:05:46.

in again, and he scores again! Brilliantly worked by Stoke City.

:05:47.:05:54.

Marko Arnautovic is the Potters main man on Wearside today. Two goals

:05:55.:06:00.

inside the first 22 minutes. He played the one-twos as freely as you

:06:01.:06:03.

like before getting in to score. 2-0. Another risky ball. Away from

:06:04.:06:26.

Rodwell. Oh, Mannone's lost it. So close to being a calamitous third

:06:27.:06:32.

goal conceded by Sunderland. Almost one for the goalkeeper's blooper's

:06:33.:06:40.

hand back. He's had enough. He's seen plenty of that. Erik Pieters.

:06:41.:06:48.

Charlie Adam. Mannone, he knows Crouch is am coulding. Crouch beats

:06:49.:06:53.

it to it, it's in. No suggestion of a foul. It's a clean header into the

:06:54.:07:00.

net. Well, he got away with the last one, the Italian creeper, he almost

:07:01.:07:06.

looks close to tears that one. He had in his mind, as the ball came

:07:07.:07:09.

over, the threat of Peter Crouch coming towards him, he panicked. A

:07:10.:07:13.

hesitant goalkeeper who got his timing all round. Peter Crouch's

:07:14.:07:18.

99th Premier League goal, his 49th goal for Stoke City, and they might

:07:19.:07:21.

have won the points on Wearside already today. It's Sunderland 0,

:07:22.:07:23.

Stoke 3. Bruno Martins Indi. With the

:07:24.:07:37.

faintest of flicks. Here's Arnautovic. Donald Love forced him

:07:38.:07:43.

to give the ball away. Borini. Rodwell goes for it. Back to him,

:07:44.:07:47.

again. It's pulled wide. In fact, it's turned wide. Good defending by

:07:48.:07:53.

Shawcross. Jack Rodwell sized up his options before letting fly. Straight

:07:54.:07:58.

Attlee grant. Shawcross prevented him from putting in the follow-up.

:07:59.:08:06.

-- at Lee Grant. Important Sunderland get back into this and

:08:07.:08:09.

get the crowd on side as soon as they can. Jermain Defoe, first

:08:10.:08:13.

chance he had all day. He's put it in. Sunderland have a way back.

:08:14.:08:21.

That's Jermain Defoe for you. He is Sunderland's only hope. Mark Hughes

:08:22.:08:27.

won't be happy. Defoe on-the-run. With his usual relaxed, composed fib

:08:28.:08:31.

finish, control off the thigh is deliberate. Quick check to see if

:08:32.:08:36.

the flag is up. He does as well as anybody in the game, still at the

:08:37.:08:38.

age of 34. Crouch. Finds Januzaj. He picks out

:08:39.:08:52.

Borini. Borini might have a go at goal here. He does. He stings the

:08:53.:08:58.

hands of Grant. Bruno Martins Indi turns the ball away. That is what

:08:59.:09:01.

Sunderland supporters need to see. Direct and positive. Johnson.

:09:02.:09:10.

Thought he was impeded. Mike Dean agrees with that. Free-kick for

:09:11.:09:16.

Stoke. That was Johnson trying to get on to the return pass. He runs

:09:17.:09:23.

into Jack Rodwell. A chance for Stoke City to get three goal

:09:24.:09:29.

breathing space, again. Charlie Adam really fancies this. Arnautovic

:09:30.:09:35.

leaves it for Adam. Adam fires wide with Mannone flying through the air.

:09:36.:09:39.

Too much bend on it. Van Aanholt. Defoe. There's Rodwell.

:09:40.:10:10.

Oh, dear me. Snatched at the chance. What a chance. David Moyes looksure

:10:11.:10:22.

Yeos. They need those opportunities.s We were excellent I

:10:23.:10:25.

thought first half for 40 minutes of it we had a little bit of a wobble

:10:26.:10:29.

just towards the end, we make made a mistake. Can't afford to do with

:10:30.:10:33.

that with Jermain Defoe around. They got a goal. Sunderland, if I'm

:10:34.:10:39.

honest, didn't create a great deal against us. More our mistakes that

:10:40.:10:43.

let them have a glimpse of the game in the second-half. We were never

:10:44.:10:47.

really in trouble throughout the proceedings today. It's a good

:10:48.:10:50.

response. The players need to take responsibility. They need to stop

:10:51.:10:56.

making individual mistakes. I did didn't think overall our performance

:10:57.:10:59.

was that bad. By the time we got three goals we made the game very

:11:00.:11:02.

difficult. They stuck at it in the second-half. We created one or two

:11:03.:11:06.

chances ourselves, we weren't quite able to take them. I had that time

:11:07.:11:13.

on the bench to reflect and think - where are things going? I've got a

:11:14.:11:20.

new Lees of life, I'm playing again and loving every minute of it.

:11:21.:11:25.

Playing in the Premier League and hopefully I have confirmed my

:11:26.:11:28.

selection. Peter was magnificent. He brought people into the game. A

:11:29.:11:31.

credit to his profession today. He as a new contract. He is 36 this

:11:32.:11:35.

month and one goal off 100. Incredible. You can't help but love

:11:36.:11:41.

him. He hats a new Lees of life. His performances in the last few weeks

:11:42.:11:44.

have been great. He knows what he is good at. He knows how to nick goals.

:11:45.:11:49.

He is always in the box when the ball goes wide. He has a good touch,

:11:50.:11:53.

as you see there for the goal. He scored in his last three games. His

:11:54.:11:59.

hold-up play is just superb. People criticise him for a lack of

:12:00.:12:02.

mobility. When you have that aerial power. I know the keeper is awful

:12:03.:12:06.

there, he should do better, you have to get up there and head it in. He

:12:07.:12:09.

is difficult to play against. This is how desperate he is to stay in

:12:10.:12:13.

the team. Look. He's doubling up at right-back. When you want him using

:12:14.:12:18.

his pace... No he is a credit to his profession to be able to do the

:12:19.:12:22.

running, great defensive header as well. He deserves real credit for

:12:23.:12:29.

revitalising his career. As for Sunderland, I think same old

:12:30.:12:32.

Sunderland. The Liverpool game was the only time really I'd seen them

:12:33.:12:38.

play well at home. Yeah. Relying on Jermaine too much. David Moyes is

:12:39.:12:42.

saying the players have to take responsibility - I get. That he

:12:43.:12:46.

chooses them and works with them day in and day out. He has to take some

:12:47.:12:51.

responsibility, too. Their performances generally have been

:12:52.:12:55.

poor. The fans fed up. Leaving as early as 35 minutes today.

:12:56.:13:00.

All seven of Burnley's wins this season have come at home.

:13:01.:13:02.

Southampton, who'd lost their last three in the league,

:13:03.:13:05.

were the latest team to try their luck at Turf Moor.

:13:06.:13:07.

Jay Rodriguez was born and schooled in Burnley and joined his local club

:13:08.:13:26.

as a ten-year-old and left for Southampton in 2012. He has not

:13:27.:13:32.

played here since and may not today, he is on the bench. Seldom any room

:13:33.:13:37.

for sentiment in team selection. He was muscled out of it illegally

:13:38.:13:50.

by Shayne Ward Prowse. A free kick to Burnley. They are in a good

:13:51.:13:55.

position here. They can conjure something from this range. It is

:13:56.:14:01.

crowded in front of the keeper. Then me looked like he got a push in the

:14:02.:14:14.

back. -- then me. It probably was just heading inside

:14:15.:14:50.

that post, Ben Mee with the block. He is Dusan Tadic again. This is the

:14:51.:14:57.

best spell they have had in the game really. Ben Mee was in the right

:14:58.:15:00.

place at the right time. That was well played. Dusan Tadic on the

:15:01.:15:04.

Bali. -- volley. Off the line. Southampton are really

:15:05.:15:24.

threatening now. That was a good save from Tom Heaton to deny Ward

:15:25.:15:28.

Prowse. There was a big shout after that

:15:29.:15:52.

block. He got himself down well. That has lifted the fans.

:15:53.:16:06.

Dean Marney is making way and Burnley fans welcome back Joey

:16:07.:16:15.

Barton. It is his first Premier League outing since made 2015. That

:16:16.:16:26.

was a good free kick. It is stopped on the line by Tom Heaton and

:16:27.:16:31.

Burnley got away with it. It looked for a second as if it was going to

:16:32.:16:35.

squirm its way into the back of the net. Burnley have got a free kick

:16:36.:16:42.

and Southampton are ruing the fact the brakes did not go their way.

:16:43.:16:47.

They might have done. You have the distinct impression that they will

:16:48.:16:53.

not be a barrel full of goals in this game. One might be enough. Boyd

:16:54.:17:00.

was thinking about the spectacular and wanting a free kick and getting

:17:01.:17:07.

a free kick. He stuck his foot out. Burnley have a chance. This would be

:17:08.:17:13.

quite a return if Joey Barton could put this into the back of the

:17:14.:17:19.

Southampton net. Joey Barton against the wall. Through the wall and N.

:17:20.:17:25.

Joey Barton has only been on the pitch a couple of minutes. Back in

:17:26.:17:31.

the Premier League, back with Burnley, back with a goal. How about

:17:32.:17:42.

that? Deflected on its way. That might have been crucial, taking it

:17:43.:17:49.

beyond Ben Forster's fingertips. What were the odds on that?

:17:50.:18:08.

Time is very much against them now. Two and a half minutes to go. Off

:18:09.:18:20.

the head of Tom Heaton. He gets a really good contact on it. This is

:18:21.:18:27.

Jay Rodriguez. Tom Heaton pushing him away. A great double save. A

:18:28.:18:36.

great double save by Tom Heaton. As super header from Van Dyke. That was

:18:37.:18:46.

a brilliant save. Southampton are a good side. They took the game on

:18:47.:18:50.

early on and they came out pressing and of the front foot and they have

:18:51.:18:55.

got good technicians in their side. Early in the second half they

:18:56.:18:58.

started the game, but as the game went on you felt the sense that we

:18:59.:19:04.

would get something. It was difficult after this game because I

:19:05.:19:09.

think it was a strong game for us with good attitude, good play. It

:19:10.:19:14.

was difficult to play against a slow ball in the second half. But it was

:19:15.:19:28.

interesting. Just to make a goal. They deserved it. It is probably not

:19:29.:19:35.

the best free kick I ever hit, but it hit the back of the net and from

:19:36.:19:39.

a personal point of view it is quite nice. But some of the blocks that

:19:40.:19:45.

the guys made. Then the double save by Tom Heaton at the end. It is not

:19:46.:19:50.

about me, it is about the team and I am delighted we have got three

:19:51.:19:55.

points. He said it is not all about him, but his manager will be happy

:19:56.:20:00.

to say it was. A great story, he has had his ups and downs. He is well

:20:01.:20:06.

liked there and he made an impact. He got a bit of fortune. I think the

:20:07.:20:10.

keeper thought he would go over the wall or through the wall where the

:20:11.:20:15.

gap is. He does take a big step right. You have got to keep your

:20:16.:20:25.

position. But it nicks Ryan Bertrand's backside. I think the

:20:26.:20:31.

keeper will be disappointed. This is a wonderful double save. If the

:20:32.:20:39.

league table was in home form, Burnley would be dead. It may well

:20:40.:20:42.

just be what keeps them up. It may well just be

:20:43.:20:45.

what keeps them up. There were emotional scenes

:20:46.:20:47.

at Vicarage Road as Watford fans celebrated the memory of Graham

:20:48.:20:49.

Taylor. Middlesbrough provided

:20:50.:20:50.

the opposition. Vicarage Road today, a stadium that

:20:51.:21:04.

was developed so much in Graham Taylor's time. He was manager here

:21:05.:21:13.

for 14 years in two spell. He showed how to build a club and not just 18.

:21:14.:21:19.

His wife Rita and his daughters Joanne and Karen are there. Families

:21:20.:21:24.

are here to share the occasion with the supporters. They share is such a

:21:25.:21:37.

unique affinity, the new signing Tom Cleverley is on the Watford bench.

:21:38.:21:53.

New signing Rudy Gestede is on the bench.

:21:54.:22:06.

His first touch was not good enough and he is the top scorer would you

:22:07.:22:12.

believe. That should have been number six for Etienne Capoue. His

:22:13.:22:21.

first touch was not good enough. Middlesbrough have only won one of

:22:22.:22:24.

their last 23 away games in the Premier League.

:22:25.:22:31.

A chance for Stuani. But, no, the flag is up for offside. I would say

:22:32.:22:39.

it was marginal. Doucoure! A chance for his first

:22:40.:23:02.

Watford goal. Headed on by Troy Deeney. Doucoure brought a save out

:23:03.:23:18.

of Valdez. That is a foul by Gibson on Okaka. He is cross to say the

:23:19.:23:27.

least. Anyway, it is a free kick to Watford. It is going to be taken by

:23:28.:23:33.

Etienne Capoue. They have piled the big men forward and Middlesbrough

:23:34.:23:38.

have pulled everybody back. That was the header by Okaka. It was a hard

:23:39.:23:46.

chance for Okaka, but Valdes was equal to it. Even their own fans are

:23:47.:23:50.

getting restless now. A chance at the far post is wasted

:23:51.:24:13.

again! Doucoure puts his head in his hands because he looked to have got

:24:14.:24:18.

the better of Fabi and should have scored.

:24:19.:24:27.

Rudy Gestede won it back well. That could have been a debut to remember.

:24:28.:24:41.

Formerly a goal-scorer at Blackburn. Not so productive at Aston Villa.

:24:42.:24:46.

Tom Cleverley, it is against the post. That was Etienne Capoue and it

:24:47.:24:53.

was over. That was Watford's best chance of the afternoon and it fell

:24:54.:24:58.

to the man who has just come on and come back to the club, Tom

:24:59.:25:03.

Cleverley. When the ball comes out Etienne Capoue shoots high and wide.

:25:04.:25:08.

Walter Mazzarri puts his head in his hands. He was pleading for Watford

:25:09.:25:16.

to create a chance like that. It has been a disappointing afternoon for

:25:17.:25:19.

the Spectator and less somebody get something now. It was wide. He got

:25:20.:25:28.

beyond the two defenders. Victor Valdes stuck his left foot out. And

:25:29.:25:34.

in fairness and in tribute to Graham Taylor, the occasion has been far

:25:35.:25:37.

more memorable than the match could ever have been. It was not the best

:25:38.:25:44.

game to watch, but for us it was a good game and we showed that once

:25:45.:25:49.

again we are a consistent team. We would like to have had more chances.

:25:50.:25:55.

We had some in the first half, but in the second half they were a

:25:56.:25:59.

strong team, physical. We were defending and trying to play, but we

:26:00.:26:11.

could just defend. In the second half we had six or seven chances to

:26:12.:26:16.

score. Two came off the post and we can say that they were very lucky.

:26:17.:26:20.

Overall I am happy with the performance. I think the fans were

:26:21.:26:27.

top drawer today in terms of their efforts and what they showed and

:26:28.:26:32.

everybody could see what it meant to people around the place. As for the

:26:33.:26:37.

performance, probably not the best, but we created a lot of chances. It

:26:38.:26:42.

hit the post and I am disappointed not to score. Today was more about

:26:43.:26:50.

Graham Taylor, not really about the result. A win would have been nice,

:26:51.:26:54.

but obviously it did not go that way. The win would have given the

:26:55.:27:00.

fans that extra special feeling that they were reflecting Graham Taylor's

:27:01.:27:08.

memory really well. We did not see certain things, but we spoke about

:27:09.:27:14.

the fact he was always a gentleman, he was always very nice. And Troy

:27:15.:27:20.

Deeney had the best chance. Yes, it was a good chance, the way he broke

:27:21.:27:25.

through was brilliant. Maybe he could have gone round the side of

:27:26.:27:30.

the goalkeeper. In the end you have to give Victor Valdes credit. It was

:27:31.:27:36.

a great save. He saved it. It was unfortunate. It would have been nice

:27:37.:27:45.

to get that. Unfortunate on such a sad day.

:27:46.:27:52.

Middlesbrough, back-to-back goalless draws. Hard to beat, well-organised.

:27:53.:27:57.

Had a chance. Hard to beat. Really good shape, lacking goals. OK. Thank

:27:58.:28:00.

you very much, guys. Chelsea's win extends their lead

:28:01.:28:04.

at the top to seven points, with Liverpool playing

:28:05.:28:08.

Manchester United on Sunday. Tottenham's sixth consecutive

:28:09.:28:10.

Premier League win, a joint-club record,

:28:11.:28:11.

moves them up to second. Swansea's fifth defeat in six

:28:12.:28:14.

games sees them drop Hull's first win in ten matches

:28:15.:28:16.

means they jump two places to 18th. The back pages tomorrow. According

:28:17.:28:34.

to the Sun Times marr say hope to tie up a deal for Payet despite West

:28:35.:28:40.

Ham insisting he will not be sold. Chelsea's senior players are trying

:28:41.:28:44.

to persuade Diego Costa not to go to China on a ?30 million a year deal

:28:45.:28:54.

says the Mail on Sunday. The Sun on Sunday says that Marcus Rashford may

:28:55.:28:59.

be signed on-loan. We'll leave you with the words

:29:00.:29:02.

of Graham Taylor, a true football man who never lost his love

:29:03.:29:12.

for the game. The sound of hitting a football

:29:13.:29:20.

thrilled me. I'm very fortunate I'm a manager and I'd like to remain

:29:21.:29:24.

one, it's simply so I can hear a football being struck. At the end of

:29:25.:29:25.

the day, when a ball is kicked, when a game is played, when you are on a

:29:26.:29:28.

football pitch, I have a feeling in the pit of my stomach that this is

:29:29.:29:30.

where I belong. They want me to write and

:29:31.:29:34.

produce - for a boy band. Oh. Your album's

:29:35.:29:39.

getting five-star reviews, I mean, you must feel like

:29:40.:29:43.

you're dreaming.
