0:00:16 > 0:00:17How about that?
0:00:17 > 0:00:25Just brilliant, just brilliant.
0:00:25 > 0:00:26Oh, that is wonderful.
0:00:26 > 0:00:35An absolute belter.
0:00:35 > 0:00:36What a chance.
0:00:36 > 0:00:37What a goal!
0:00:37 > 0:00:47Blue is the colour of the Premier League winners.
0:00:52 > 0:01:06Head row. Lukaku. -- Pedro. It's gone in.
0:01:06 > 0:01:17Darlow! Burnley are up to fourth. They are walking away with the
0:01:17 > 0:01:18Premier League.
0:01:18 > 0:01:20They are walking away with the Premier League.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22The games come fast and furious in the Premier League
0:01:22 > 0:01:24at this time of year.
0:01:24 > 0:01:29Speaking of fast and furious, Ian Wright and Martin Keown are here.
0:01:29 > 0:01:31Manchester City became the first team in history to win 15
0:01:31 > 0:01:33consecutive top-flight matches by beating Swansea in midweek.
0:01:33 > 0:01:36They faced Spurs, who'd won three and drawn one of the last four
0:01:36 > 0:01:38league meetings between the teams.

0:01:47 > 0:01:47Your commentator at the Etihad, Guy Mowbray.
0:01:47 > 0:01:5115 Premier League wins in a row. Many against sides that chiefly
0:01:51 > 0:01:56sought to shut them out. Now, Manchester City face a Tottenham
0:01:56 > 0:02:00team that has vowed to take them on. They take on a City side that is
0:02:00 > 0:02:04missing inform David Silva who is absent for personal reasons.
0:02:04 > 0:02:07Gundogan comes in for his second league start of the season and two
0:02:07 > 0:02:15other changes from Wednesday's win at Swansea, Sane in for Bernado
0:02:15 > 0:02:22Silva. Walker is facing Spurs for the first time since leaving them in
0:02:22 > 0:02:27the summer. Spurs made changes.
0:02:33 > 0:02:38Dele Alli is eight games without a goal.
0:02:38 > 0:02:4250 years ago, last week, Manchester City played Tottenham at a frozen
0:02:42 > 0:02:46Maine Road in a game that became famous as the ballet on ice. They
0:02:46 > 0:02:50went on to be champions. Here we are, half a century on, same
0:02:50 > 0:02:54freezing conditions, and a side who since August have boasted a perfect
0:02:54 > 0:03:00Premier League record. Sane trying to shimmy through.
0:03:00 > 0:03:06It is not away from Dier. Sane will be happy to let it bounce behind for
0:03:06 > 0:03:15a Manchester City corn -- corner. It is headed in. It was Gundogan who
0:03:15 > 0:03:22stole in. Manchester City have been the better side, from the start.
0:03:22 > 0:03:27Dier Winks a few others may be asking questions of one another. As
0:03:27 > 0:03:33Pep Guardiola switches the phase two of the plan. Page one has worked.
0:03:33 > 0:03:41Corner played in, Kane went to try and head it away. It went into Anya
0:03:41 > 0:03:44where there were more dark blue shirts than light. Gundogan waited
0:03:44 > 0:03:52for it to hit his head. Head. Ed it into the net.
0:03:52 > 0:03:59De Bruyne. Mangala. Was that a push from Danny
0:03:59 > 0:04:04Rose? That is what Fernandinho is asking about. Mangala is not
0:04:04 > 0:04:10bothered. You can see why they would ask.
0:04:10 > 0:04:21Is Sane. De Bruyne. Clear, Dier, it means ago row is on goal. Sterling
0:04:21 > 0:04:30is on to it. Sterling. Put a bit much on to it. So quickly. Do
0:04:30 > 0:04:32Manchester City move from one end to the other.
0:04:32 > 0:04:37One ball over the head of Eric diver and Aguero had time to set himself.
0:04:37 > 0:04:43He always hits the target. Decent save by Lloris and Sterling tried to
0:04:43 > 0:04:48hammer that into the top corner. We have some freezing fog coming
0:04:48 > 0:04:56down, it is like it is preceding an alien landing! Sterling. De Bruyne.
0:04:56 > 0:05:03Dembele gets the slip. Plays it in for Sane, whose first touch just put
0:05:03 > 0:05:07the ball into, not quite the firm grasp of Lloris but close enough for
0:05:07 > 0:05:11him to get it away. How long will it stay away? It is
0:05:11 > 0:05:18Walker to Sterling. Through to Aguero. Aguero shot wide, Lloris
0:05:18 > 0:05:21wouldn't have been able to do much about it if it had gone the other
0:05:21 > 0:05:27side the post. At any point you cold Manchester City will score a second.
0:05:27 > 0:05:36Spurs don't look like scoring one. Alli.
0:05:39 > 0:05:43Eriksen. Dele Alli. Kane lets it go for Eriksen.
0:05:43 > 0:05:48Kane. Kane has gone to bend it in. He is
0:05:48 > 0:05:54not far away. Ederson was at full stretch. Seen that sort of shot from
0:05:54 > 0:06:00Harry Kane so many time, that wasn't far away at all.
0:06:00 > 0:06:12Kane. Did well. He is caught height by Otamendi. The defender is
0:06:12 > 0:06:18explaining himself to Maurecio Pochettino. A fellow Argentine.
0:06:18 > 0:06:23It is a yellow card for Otamendi. That is high and dangerous from
0:06:23 > 0:06:33Otamendi. Trippier. Neat exchange with Son and
0:06:33 > 0:06:36Delph was late into the challenge. He is going to get a yellow card
0:06:36 > 0:06:42too. Free kick for Spurs. Passing was just too crisp for him
0:06:42 > 0:06:46and he goes lunging in, can't complain.
0:06:46 > 0:06:52Eriksen on the ball. He only has Sane to curl it past.
0:06:52 > 0:06:59That part done, Ederson it is who pours it clear to Rose.
0:06:59 > 0:07:07Spurs aren't done with this yet. Shot blocked. Vertonghen had a go.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10And Harry Kane has got into a challenge which has increased the
0:07:10 > 0:07:17home crowd volume. Sterling on the end of it.
0:07:17 > 0:07:22The referee is going to caution Harry Kane for it. Accepted with a
0:07:22 > 0:07:26nod. City might complain it should have been a different colour. That
0:07:26 > 0:07:39is a really bad one from Harry Kane. Trippier. Eriksen. Trippier finds
0:07:39 > 0:07:43Kane. This is sustained Spurs pressure. Kane has gone for goal.
0:07:43 > 0:07:48What a save by Ederson. Harry Kane didn't need much time to
0:07:48 > 0:07:53think about that. Didn't need much room to fire it hard and on target.
0:07:53 > 0:08:04Ederson was ready for it. Gundogan to De Bruyne. He has lost
0:08:04 > 0:08:08none of his quality, as shown by another sweeping pass for Sane. Sane
0:08:08 > 0:08:14has a chance here, Sane runs on... And it is over the top.
0:08:14 > 0:08:19The flag is up. That was Sane allowed by Trippier to move into
0:08:19 > 0:08:23that position. I am not sure Sterling was offside when it comes
0:08:23 > 0:08:28off the boot of Sane. Good strong hand from morery, it
0:08:28 > 0:08:38wouldn't have counted has Sterling gone it under the bar.
0:08:38 > 0:08:43Picked off by Jesus. De Bruyne goes snapping into another and Dele Alli
0:08:43 > 0:08:47goes crashing into him and the card is out here. It is coming out for
0:08:47 > 0:08:57Dele Alli. He goes over the top of the ball and
0:08:57 > 0:09:02into De Bruyne's shin. Oh dear, that is as bad as Kane's
0:09:02 > 0:09:07earlier. He knows he will lose the race, he does go over the top. Pep
0:09:07 > 0:09:10Guardiola knows, he had a clear view.
0:09:10 > 0:09:16Kane. Left that one drift across. Fernandinho anticipated that
0:09:16 > 0:09:21happening. Jesus. In City are on now, it is
0:09:21 > 0:09:26Gundogan. De Bruyne. De Bruyne makes space to shoot and it's in. It was
0:09:26 > 0:09:34too hot for Lloris to handle. De Bruyne, on the end of a challenge
0:09:34 > 0:09:38that looked pretty bad from Dele Alli a few moments ago but that is
0:09:38 > 0:09:44how to exact revenge. Real feeling in that shot, and the
0:09:44 > 0:09:48celebration. Manchester City have clear blue air between themselves
0:09:48 > 0:09:54and Spurs. Touch of good fortune there and then
0:09:54 > 0:09:58the break opened up and De Bruyne had options but only one thing in
0:09:58 > 0:10:02his mind, and it has gone through the hands of morery, he hit that so
0:10:02 > 0:10:09hard. -- Lloris. Spurs on the break and I wonder if they are broken now,
0:10:09 > 0:10:13it is Manchester City 2, Spurs 0. City looking good for win number 16
0:10:13 > 0:10:19in a row. Sane.
0:10:19 > 0:10:25Gundogan is on to it again, De Bruyne is in again. And he is taken
0:10:25 > 0:10:30down by Vertonghen, it is a Manchester City penalty.
0:10:30 > 0:10:34Vertonghen went to ground. De Bruyne away from him with that
0:10:34 > 0:10:40touch, but then the legs got in a tangle. No debate at all. 3-0 would
0:10:40 > 0:10:45surely mean 3 points. And Jesus hits the post. And the follow up is over
0:10:45 > 0:10:50the top. Sterling was onside I think.
0:10:50 > 0:10:56He has put two of those over. It's a let off from Spurs.
0:11:02 > 0:11:08Dembele loses out. Here is Gundogan, through to Sane. Sane through to
0:11:08 > 0:11:14Sterling. It's a tap in. And a City win, is most definitely a shoe in
0:11:14 > 0:11:20now. Running away with another one.
0:11:20 > 0:11:25It is a glorious goal. And as with so much of the glorious football
0:11:25 > 0:11:27that Manchester City play, De Bruyne is at the heart of it.
0:11:27 > 0:11:33Super run from him. Great pass from Gundogan. Just make
0:11:33 > 0:11:38a question mark about the ball across from Sane to Sterling, in
0:11:38 > 0:11:42terms of was Sterling onside. Very very tight. Benefit of doubt given
0:11:42 > 0:11:46to City. No doubt about who the better team has been in this game.
0:11:46 > 0:11:55And which team is going to claim all three points.
0:11:55 > 0:11:59Played through towards Sterling. It was missed and Sterling is not going
0:11:59 > 0:12:05to miss that. It is four. Two goals for Sterling before the
0:12:05 > 0:12:11end of the afternoon. A miserable one for Eric Dier, and a
0:12:11 > 0:12:15whole City team come together to celebrate, 4-0.
0:12:15 > 0:12:19What a pass it was from Bernado Silva but it still ought to have
0:12:19 > 0:12:26been dealt with by Dier. It was a flick out at the ball. Sterling got
0:12:26 > 0:12:31lucky. He had a flick at it and missed it. Comedy of Errors all
0:12:31 > 0:12:36round until the tap in. Two on a plate for Sterling at the end of the
0:12:36 > 0:12:43game. Ederson away. Trippier.
0:12:43 > 0:12:51Eriksen. Eriksen has gone for goal and he has beaten Ederson. And Spurs
0:12:51 > 0:12:55have a consolation. That is all it is, it won't even feel like that
0:12:55 > 0:13:00right now. It is one for Eriksen that takes him on to six goals for
0:13:00 > 0:13:07the season. He keeps up his good record here, he has scored three
0:13:07 > 0:13:11goals in four Premier League games away to City with Spurs.
0:13:11 > 0:13:13goals in four Premier League games away to City with Spurs. How much
0:13:13 > 0:13:19did you enjoy watching your team?A lot. It is important to maintain the
0:13:19 > 0:13:22run, but especially again, the way we played with the ball and
0:13:22 > 0:13:25especially without the ball, we played against one team a lot
0:13:25 > 0:13:32without the ball. They want to play to push up, created I don't know how
0:13:32 > 0:13:37many chances, how many on target. So we miss three chances with our
0:13:37 > 0:13:42goalkeeper, so that is why I am so happy.YouYou must learn this type
0:13:42 > 0:13:49of game, to see the reality, to see that we play again a team that is in
0:13:49 > 0:13:59very good form. Very good momentum, and a lot of positive things, we
0:13:59 > 0:14:07only, we see the result.Every game we won, we enjoyed it, I don't think
0:14:07 > 0:14:12we make a difference between one game, every game, in the end it is
0:14:12 > 0:14:16only three points but keeps the run going, keeps on winning and
0:14:16 > 0:14:19obviously everybody enjoys it more when you win.
0:14:19 > 0:14:24Where do we start with this team? Perhaps with that fella for a start.
0:14:24 > 0:14:29De Bruyne, what a player.Gary, it is our job to describe how good this
0:14:29 > 0:14:34team is. It is a pleasure to watch them. His feet are like paintbrush,
0:14:34 > 0:14:38he is an artist. He is a player that, he is a thinking footballer,
0:14:38 > 0:14:42he is so creative, he creates chances for everyone and he will
0:14:42 > 0:14:47take his own when gets them. Young kids watching this. He is not
0:14:47 > 0:14:50admiring passes, he wants to get after things. There is an energy.
0:14:50 > 0:14:52admiring passes, he wants to get after things. There is an energy.
0:14:52 > 0:14:55Look at that from the left paintbrush. Ridiculous pass. He
0:14:55 > 0:14:59wants to work hard. He is giving his manager everything. He is on fire at
0:14:59 > 0:15:03the moment. Really, mine, the world is his oyster at the moment. Look at
0:15:03 > 0:15:08this for vision, he picks it out. He has no right to even see that pass.
0:15:08 > 0:15:13And this just sums him up. Boufal, wins that ball. The fan, they are
0:15:13 > 0:15:16out of their seat, he is taking people out of their seats every
0:15:16 > 0:15:20week, and makes things happen every time. Look at this for a pass. We
0:15:20 > 0:15:24think he is going to play it to Jesus. He plays it to Sterling. He
0:15:24 > 0:15:29is outstanding. The goalkeeper, but this one, that is a really bad
0:15:29 > 0:15:35challenge.
0:15:35 > 0:15:38You wouldn't think any paint come off these paintbrushes. Look at
0:15:38 > 0:15:42this. He is saying - you want to kick me. I will win this thing on my
0:15:42 > 0:15:49own, if I have to. He really is. Glossy finish?I was going to say
0:15:49 > 0:15:55that myself. Dembele, he embar rigsed him there. They didn't start
0:15:55 > 0:16:00the season. They are playing a major part. De Bruyne, it's a joy to watch
0:16:00 > 0:16:04him play. The kind of football he's playing is outstanding.He's a
0:16:04 > 0:16:06Picasso. He really is.
0:16:06 > 0:16:09playing is outstanding.He's a Picasso. He really is. Under
0:16:09 > 0:16:15Pochettino, Ian, Tottenham have won one away game. A let down of a
0:16:15 > 0:16:19performance in many ways. Do we say Manchester City are too good?They
0:16:19 > 0:16:22were good. Spurs had
0:16:22 > 0:16:24Manchester City are too good?They were good. Spurs had the capability.
0:16:24 > 0:16:28That is just communication. They might be able to create a one, two.
0:16:28 > 0:16:32If you are going to beat City, when you get into situations like this
0:16:32 > 0:16:36you have to put in quality. They didn't do it on many occasions.
0:16:36 > 0:16:41Their first shot on target was in the 55th minute. Look at Delhi.
0:16:41 > 0:16:45Danny Rose, hits it over the bar. This one, Danny Rose, again.
0:16:45 > 0:16:49Brilliantly supporting him there. Lay it into Eriksen. He might get it
0:16:49 > 0:16:52across the box. That is where you put Manchester City under pressure.
0:16:52 > 0:16:55They didn't do it. He has a speculative shot. It goes over the
0:16:55 > 0:16:59bar. There were opportunities today where Spurs could have had a go at
0:16:59 > 0:17:07them.Too good.No oil painting. No shortage. Incidents. Lots to talk
0:17:07 > 0:17:11about. We looked at a few. Given decisions in recent weeks in other
0:17:11 > 0:17:15games is it a lack of consistency? That's a foul.A penalty then?I
0:17:15 > 0:17:19think it's a penalty. You can't push people like that in the box.Because
0:17:19 > 0:17:24he hasments gone down. It's soft. It's soft.You don't want to
0:17:24 > 0:17:29encourage players to go down.No. It's dangerous play. He is not going
0:17:29 > 0:17:35at the same place as with Mane. Kicked him in the face. WeWe saw
0:17:35 > 0:17:39the Mane one earlier in the season. Bang, kicked him in the face. It's
0:17:39 > 0:17:44consistency you want. Look at Harry Kane, he has lunged. He is
0:17:44 > 0:17:51fortunate...Awful challenge.His legs come off the ground. He's out
0:17:51 > 0:18:01of control of his body there. Paul Pogba will think - hang on a minute,
0:18:01 > 0:18:06I think that is the same height as Pogba. Pogba could say, I feel
0:18:06 > 0:18:13aggrieved. Bellerin was in an awkward position.You could see what
0:18:13 > 0:18:16Pep Guardiola thinks of that. His star player doesn't want him out for
0:18:16 > 0:18:21the season.Beautiful football, so let's brush that aside!
0:18:21 > 0:18:24To the bet365 Stadium next where a power cut delayed
0:18:24 > 0:18:25kick-off by an hour.
0:18:25 > 0:18:26Fortunately, Stoke had a Sparky to hand.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29On the pitch, Mark Hughes's side had won just once in seven.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32They faced West Ham, who kicked off second from bottom.
0:18:32 > 0:18:33Commentary comes from John Murray.
0:18:33 > 0:18:37JOHN MURRAY:
0:18:37 > 0:18:41They restored the power, now Mark Hughes and his team need to restore
0:18:41 > 0:18:45their reputations. Stoke's team performance in defeat at Burnley was
0:18:45 > 0:18:52encouraging enough for him to make the one enforced change. Wimmer
0:18:52 > 0:18:55replacing the injured Zouma. West Ham arrived in good heart after
0:18:55 > 0:19:00their good week. James Collins plays for the first time since September
0:19:00 > 0:19:05for the suspended Winston Reid.
0:19:08 > 0:19:16Diouf. Just a little heavy from the challenge of Collins, got very tight
0:19:16 > 0:19:25to Diouf. So a free-kick. So Peter Crouch, obviously, will be at
0:19:25 > 0:19:32target. So is Shaqiri. Instead it will be taken down by Shawcross,
0:19:32 > 0:19:39against the post. Shaqiri. Well, that looked like a foul by Masuaku
0:19:39 > 0:19:44on Shaqiri. The referee waved play on. West Ham are away on the
0:19:44 > 0:19:52counter-attack. Danger bells ringing for Stoke here. And the challenge...
0:19:52 > 0:19:59It's given as a penalty.
0:20:01 > 0:20:06So from this at one end, Shawcross's header that hit the post. Now, was
0:20:06 > 0:20:12this a foul? The referee said no. This was the initial challenge from
0:20:12 > 0:20:17Joe Allen, which was shrugged off and Pyers. It's the way he
0:20:17 > 0:20:24challenges there. I mean, Lanzini is already going down, but Pieters
0:20:24 > 0:20:29slides in, raises his foot. Another one of those where I can see why the
0:20:29 > 0:20:43referee has given it. So here's Mark Noble. Beautifully tucked away. And
0:20:43 > 0:20:50West Ham lead inside the first 20 minutes. Big moments these. And Mark
0:20:50 > 0:20:54Noble was up to it, very cool.
0:20:57 > 0:21:04He's absolutely living every moment of this, isn't he, Mark Hughes?
0:21:04 > 0:21:10Arnautovic. He could be away here, he is. A chance for Arnautovic. Well
0:21:10 > 0:21:19done Jack Butland. Stoke City were holding their breathes there for a
0:21:19 > 0:21:23moment when it appeared Arnautovic may be about to put them 2-0 up.
0:21:23 > 0:21:28Cresswell. He has been allowed time to bring the ball forward. Lanzini,
0:21:28 > 0:21:34with space. Butland had to make a good save there. Stoke City cannot
0:21:34 > 0:21:40give Lanzini space in that sort of position.
0:21:43 > 0:21:47Well, Fletcher's pounce was short. Cresswell read it, intercepted it
0:21:47 > 0:21:51and now West Ham are off on a counter-attack with Cresswell.
0:21:51 > 0:21:56Arnautovic is in the middle. It's went all the way to Arnautovic.
0:21:56 > 0:22:05Lovely foot work. So close to 2-0. Again, hearts in mouths for the home
0:22:05 > 0:22:10supporters.
0:22:12 > 0:22:23Fletcher. Shaqiri. Oh, not far away. Adrian was worried certainly at the
0:22:23 > 0:22:26way Adrian scrambled to his right here. He was concerned, I think he
0:22:26 > 0:22:36had a right to be. Here's Masuaku, who is sized down by Shawcross. That
0:22:36 > 0:22:45may well be a yellow card, yes, it is. So it will be lands or
0:22:45 > 0:22:49Cresswell, the usual choice. Cresswell it is with the delivery.
0:22:49 > 0:22:56That's gone a long way. It landed on the top of the crossbar from
0:22:56 > 0:23:02Arnautovic. That could easily have dropped in.
0:23:06 > 0:23:12The flag has stayed down against Arnautovic. Wimmer, still
0:23:12 > 0:23:19Arnautovic. He's missed it! Everyone was waiting for the net to bulge. He
0:23:19 > 0:23:27had a long way to go from there, beat Wimmer, again. A little flick
0:23:27 > 0:23:35on the way wide past the post. Antonio, Lanzini. Not like the look
0:23:35 > 0:23:44of this. Arnautovic. On his left foot. Oh, so close! Arnautovic
0:23:44 > 0:23:51cannot believe that that hasn't found the back of the net. The width
0:23:51 > 0:23:54of the crossbar.
0:23:56 > 0:24:00It's almost reaching the stage where I'm thinking I can't believe this is
0:24:00 > 0:24:09going to finish 1-0. Oh, that's good. Shawcross! Another chance
0:24:09 > 0:24:15Forshaw cross. For all of their second-half effort, Stoke are still
0:24:15 > 0:24:24yet to have a shot on target. -- for Shawcross. Lanzini is there.
0:24:24 > 0:24:29Lanzini, back to Arnautovic. This is the chance. That's the goal. It's
0:24:29 > 0:24:34been coming all afternoon long. Almost inevitable that this would
0:24:34 > 0:24:42happen. Onside. This time he couldn't miss. Marko Arnautovic,
0:24:42 > 0:24:47sold to West Ham, by Stoke City, in July. After the shot that hit the
0:24:47 > 0:24:53crossbar, this is what Arnautovic did. The crossed arms there. The
0:24:53 > 0:24:57Iron's signal when the Stoke fans were goading him. He showed his
0:24:57 > 0:25:04loyalty to West Ham and then buried Stoke. That's it is from Marko
0:25:04 > 0:25:09Arnautovic this afternoon. What an afternoon. Chances. He's being
0:25:09 > 0:25:15roundly booed. Vilified even by the Stoke supporters after leaving just
0:25:15 > 0:25:21five months ago. Now West Ham will be off on the counter-attack, again.
0:25:21 > 0:25:27They could have a man over. Lanzini has managed to find Hernandez. Very,
0:25:27 > 0:25:36very dangerous in this sort of situation. Still going. Sakho it
0:25:36 > 0:25:40might have been a handball. Backheeled all the way across the
0:25:40 > 0:25:46face of goal. This probably should have been game over. I think that
0:25:46 > 0:25:51might have flicked the defender. Should have been a corner.
0:25:53 > 0:26:06Lanzini. It's two against two again. Here's Sakho. 3-0. That finishes it.
0:26:06 > 0:26:10A great day for West Ham, David Moyes, their revival is well under
0:26:10 > 0:26:18way now. Stoke were pushing forward, gaps, huge gaps left gaping at the
0:26:18 > 0:26:22back. Sakho was ruthless.
0:26:22 > 0:26:26gaps, huge gaps left gaping at the back. Sakho was ruthless. We were
0:26:26 > 0:26:30indebted to a sparky today to get this game on because of electrical
0:26:30 > 0:26:34problems. For that sparky it would seem the lights are going out.
0:26:34 > 0:26:39Important game. We are playing well, gaining momentum, coming into form
0:26:39 > 0:26:43as well. We showed it today. How strongly do you feel it should not
0:26:43 > 0:26:48have been given as a penaltyThe guy has clearly dived. He's drawn a
0:26:48 > 0:26:52challenge. Maybe we should have just stayed on our feet and seen the ball
0:26:52 > 0:26:57out. But obviously he's clever player. My view clearly a dive.The
0:26:57 > 0:27:03defender gives the referee a decision. I think he had run about
0:27:03 > 0:27:0770 yards. I don't he dives. I think he goes over with fatigue, more than
0:27:07 > 0:27:12anything.We thought we had been playing very well. Looking on paper
0:27:12 > 0:27:16they were a tough game. To get seven points out of the last few games is
0:27:16 > 0:27:20huge for us.How much is that down to the manager inA lot. Our
0:27:20 > 0:27:25workrate has upped since he came in. The boys' effort and the way we
0:27:25 > 0:27:28played football has upped and, like you say, the last couple of weeks we
0:27:28 > 0:27:34got the result.I don't intend to be involved in a relegation battle.
0:27:34 > 0:27:39It's not what we should be doing, but I think the clarity of
0:27:39 > 0:27:41understanding actually we are in one at the moment. We've got to
0:27:41 > 0:27:45recognise that and do something about it. That's what we'll do.You
0:27:45 > 0:27:50believe that your as good the man as anybody to be the one to get Stoke
0:27:50 > 0:27:52out of it?Absolutely. I know the league. I know this group of
0:27:52 > 0:27:57players. I know what they can produce on good days. Today wasn't a
0:27:57 > 0:28:01great day. But we'll get it out of them and we'll be better.Big win
0:28:01 > 0:28:09for West Ham.Yeah.Another clean sheet. Three on the bounce. First
0:28:09 > 0:28:14goal always important in in a game. Did he draw the foul?Or fatigued.
0:28:14 > 0:28:17Mark Hughes has every right to be unhappy about this. I do believe it
0:28:17 > 0:28:17was
0:28:17 > 0:28:20unhappy about this. I do believe it was a dive. We will see it at a
0:28:20 > 0:28:24couple of angles. We will get the best angle in a second. What Pieters
0:28:24 > 0:28:28does, he goes to challenge and Martin will say with the wrong leg.
0:28:28 > 0:28:33He doesn't challenge him at all. That's not the angle. This next
0:28:33 > 0:28:36angle, when you look at it here. He goes to challenge. He doesn't
0:28:36 > 0:28:42challenge. Look, he's on his way down, Lanzini, he's not actually -
0:28:42 > 0:28:46He lunged into it.MooA dive. If you are working with Pieters you
0:28:46 > 0:28:50would say, don't go to ground.The referee was in a good position. Good
0:28:50 > 0:28:54penalty for Mark Noble, pleased for him. Pleased for West Ham and David
0:28:54 > 0:28:59Moyes. Last chance saloon almost. Only got a six movnt deal. Really
0:28:59 > 0:29:03got the players going. I'm pleased for him.Got Arnautovic going, back
0:29:03 > 0:29:08against his former club. Gave us a portrait of his performance, please?
0:29:08 > 0:29:11Unrecognisable from what you saw at the start of the season. He's
0:29:11 > 0:29:15hungry. He's powerful. Look at the way that he runs away from Stoke
0:29:15 > 0:29:19defenders. Perhaps should do better with the finish. He was Mark Hughes'
0:29:19 > 0:29:22worst nightmare. Like a pantomime figure today. The crowd were giving
0:29:22 > 0:29:26him all sorts of stick. Good feet there. His pace impressed me.I
0:29:26 > 0:29:30can't believe the line that Stoke held.Too high. They were all over,
0:29:30 > 0:29:34disjointed. He gets back here and gets a block. That should be a goal.
0:29:34 > 0:29:39There is no doubt about. It he is holding the line there very well.
0:29:39 > 0:29:43Playing with Inler tell generals as well.Petrified to tackle him.They
0:29:43 > 0:29:47are. They didn't have enough Stoke in every department. This is my new
0:29:47 > 0:29:51club, I'm a Hammer. Look at this. You want to come from me... I tell
0:29:51 > 0:29:54you what, I'm good enough. He's got a lot of confidence. This is give
0:29:54 > 0:30:00and go. This is the goal, by the way.Yes.Class all over this. Slows
0:30:00 > 0:30:04it down nicely. Give and go at the edge of the box. Everyone switches
0:30:04 > 0:30:09off around him. He knows he has time and space, he punishes him. Looking
0:30:09 > 0:30:13at the defending, it's absolutely terrible. They have are switching
0:30:13 > 0:30:20off. That's the guy who came to town to ruin the party.He celebrated. We
0:30:20 > 0:30:24don't see that often?I like that. He got so much stick. I know Stoke
0:30:24 > 0:30:30do love to dish out stick to people, he got... Mark Hughes gives him a
0:30:30 > 0:30:35bit there.They did the right thing he didn't want to go to the dug-out.
0:30:35 > 0:30:39They started to throw things at him. It's not Nice.Exactly.Stuart
0:30:39 > 0:30:43Pearce didn't want to take him back to the dressing room. Stuart is not
0:30:43 > 0:30:48frightened. I thought he was outstanding.Brilliant.What is the
0:30:48 > 0:30:52landscape like for Mark Hughes?They are saying behind-the-scenes he has
0:30:52 > 0:30:55the support of the owners, Peter Coates. West Bromwich Albion is a
0:30:55 > 0:30:59massive game. He is a man with dignity and a good manager. He will
0:30:59 > 0:31:06be tested now to the limit.OK.
0:31:06 > 0:31:06Sees
0:31:06 > 0:31:07Sees
0:31:07 > 0:31:11Five games still to come.
0:31:11 > 0:31:20What a save.Off the line. And Pedro is still going.
0:31:20 > 0:31:25Giroud, he head steered it back for Wilshere.
0:31:25 > 0:31:31Right across the face of goal. Four straight wins for Leicester.
0:31:31 > 0:31:32Four straight wins for Leicester.
0:31:32 > 0:31:34Four straight wins for Leicester had moved Claude Puel's
0:31:34 > 0:31:35side into the top eight.
0:31:35 > 0:31:37Opponents Crystal Palace were six games unbeaten,
0:31:37 > 0:31:39but remained in the bottom three ahead of kick-off.
0:31:39 > 0:31:49Martin Fisher was at the King Power Stadium.
0:31:50 > 0:31:55Less steers dram tech up surge has the locals talking of another top
0:31:55 > 0:32:05six challenge.
0:32:25 > 0:32:32Zaha, the first opportunity for him to get his twinkle-toes creating
0:32:32 > 0:32:42havoc. Palace. Benteke, interest steered. Now Townsend, now Zaha,
0:32:42 > 0:32:47good tackle by Ndidi. It has to be as clean as a whistle there.
0:32:47 > 0:32:53A moment Leicester can't clear their lines. Their former player Schlupp
0:32:53 > 0:32:56bursting through, the shot wide. What a return that would have been
0:32:56 > 0:33:01for the man who was part of the Leicester City title winning side of
0:33:01 > 0:33:062016, Schlupp. Crystal Palace have been the more
0:33:06 > 0:33:08impressive of the two sides so
0:33:08 > 0:33:08Crystal Palace have been the more impressive of the two sides so far.
0:33:08 > 0:33:20. Townsend, checking Chilwell. Finding Cabaye. Benteke, Benteke
0:33:20 > 0:33:26scores. The I have on testify piece a week
0:33:26 > 0:33:32ago at Selhurst Park, covers his ears as Palace take the lead. His
0:33:32 > 0:33:40first goal of the season. Palace's first away goal since April 23rd.
0:33:40 > 0:33:44Lock how Benteke found space in between Morgan and Simpson all too
0:33:44 > 0:33:50easily. The header too strong for Schmeichel. Many of the fans who
0:33:50 > 0:33:56were cheering him last Saturday now cheering him. How quickly things can
0:33:56 > 0:34:03change in football. Now can Leicester make things
0:34:03 > 0:34:11change? They haven't really got out of first gear so far.
0:34:11 > 0:34:14Albrighton's delivery, oh, I think it was Benteke who actually nearly
0:34:14 > 0:34:18score steered in his own net! That would have been a better finish than
0:34:18 > 0:34:22the earlier one, right in the corner. He would have been the
0:34:22 > 0:34:30villain again. Albrighton. Good anticipation again, by Cabaye.
0:34:30 > 0:34:35A lot to do. He is away from Maguire. He is into the box and Zaha
0:34:35 > 0:34:40gets the shot away. The only thing lacking there, from Zaha was power
0:34:40 > 0:34:44in the shot, because this is brilliant. The ambulance, the
0:34:44 > 0:34:49trickery, -- balance, the trick British easy for Schmeichel.
0:34:49 > 0:34:53Mahrez. Has been a peripheral figure so far.
0:34:53 > 0:34:58And he has lost it cheaply again. Palace on the move again. Benteke,
0:34:58 > 0:35:02needs to release it. He has found Zaha, Zaha takes his time and
0:35:02 > 0:35:06scores. Brilliant finish. Brilliant move by
0:35:06 > 0:35:11Crystal Palace. Benteke the provider this time, and
0:35:11 > 0:35:20Zaha doubles Palace's lead. Benteke power steered it, took his
0:35:20 > 0:35:26time, Zaha move steered into space and thumps it home. He is the
0:35:26 > 0:35:38catalyst for this fabulous up surge in recent weeks. Under Roy Hodgson.
0:35:38 > 0:35:39Scores. Brilliant finish. Brilliant move by
0:35:39 > 0:35:40Crystal Palace. Benteke the provider this time, and
0:35:40 > 0:35:43Zaha doubles Palace's lead. Benteke powered it, took his time,
0:35:43 > 0:35:45Zaha moveed into space and thumps it home. He is the catalyst for this
0:35:45 > 0:35:48fabulous up surge in recent weeks. Under Roy Hodgson. Mahrez available.
0:35:48 > 0:35:49Mahrez. Away from Schlupp. Saveed by Speroni.
0:35:49 > 0:35:51It is the first time the veteran goalkeeper has really been tested
0:35:51 > 0:35:57today. It is the usual Leicester one-two, the usual combination,
0:35:57 > 0:36:11Vardy and Mahrez, that get Leicester close to getting on the score sheet.
0:36:11 > 0:36:13D by Speroni. It is the first time the veteran
0:36:13 > 0:36:15goalkeeper has really been testd today. It is the usual Leicester
0:36:15 > 0:36:17one-two, the usual combination, Vardy and Mahrez, that get Leicester
0:36:17 > 0:36:20close to getting on the score sheet. Here is Loftus-Cheek.
0:36:20 > 0:36:24Crunchingle on him by Ndidi. And that will be a booking for
0:36:24 > 0:36:31Ndidi. It had been plain sailing today for
0:36:31 > 0:36:38Claude Puel. Ndidi was fould by McArthur. There will be a feeling
0:36:38 > 0:36:43within the Leicester team that if they could get one back, quickly,
0:36:43 > 0:36:51they could still be in business here, Mahrez whips it in. It is
0:36:51 > 0:36:58Iborra. No, disallowd quickly. It is a terrific spot from the
0:36:58 > 0:37:03referee, the push there by Iborra, nice finish but the whistle quickly
0:37:03 > 0:37:14blown, Leicester's joy shortlived. Mahrez. Sense of injustice round the
0:37:14 > 0:37:18King Power stadium, Ndidi goes down. He won't get a penalty, he might be
0:37:18 > 0:37:22in trouble here. Ndidi.
0:37:22 > 0:37:31Second yellow and Ndidi who turns 21 today. He is sent off.
0:37:31 > 0:37:41That changes the complex tonne of the day. The fall is threatrical.
0:37:41 > 0:37:47Was he impeded there. No penalty Leicester, a rotten day for Ndidi.
0:37:47 > 0:37:53Cabaye. Loftus-Cheek. Lovely ball. Round the
0:37:53 > 0:38:05corner for Zaha, Zaha, Benteke. What a tackle by Albrighton.
0:38:06 > 0:38:11The quick feet from Zaha, Albrighton. Now, looking at it
0:38:11 > 0:38:29again, is that a foul? Comes round the back of Benteke.
0:38:31 > 0:38:38What a save. Schmeichel, keeps Leicester in the
0:38:38 > 0:38:43game, just. Schmeichel spreads himself as big as
0:38:43 > 0:38:55he can. And it is off his thigh and behind.
0:38:55 > 0:38:58Zaha, he can release Loftus-Cheek here, Loftus-Cheek for Palace to
0:38:58 > 0:39:08settle the game once and for all, he has Sakho in support. 3-0 Palace.
0:39:08 > 0:39:14What a way to end your drought away from home.
0:39:14 > 0:39:21And Sakho, showing the confidence that has flooded through the Palace
0:39:21 > 0:39:24player, in off the bar. Leicester nil. Palace 3.
0:39:24 > 0:39:27player, in off the bar. Leicester nil. Palace 3.We have been
0:39:27 > 0:39:33threatening away from home to get good result, in each defeat I felt a
0:39:33 > 0:39:37victory wouldn't have been totally out of order so it was good to get
0:39:37 > 0:39:43it today.We know it was a difficult game to prepare but without the
0:39:43 > 0:39:48quality of on the pitch, think Crystal Palace deserves this result,
0:39:48 > 0:39:53this win. The players they playd very well. And for us, I think it is
0:39:53 > 0:39:58a good lesson for the future.What a difference a week makes.Yes, but
0:39:58 > 0:40:03that is why we play football, I think, anything can happen. I think
0:40:03 > 0:40:07we have been, really strong, this afternoon, and we deserve those
0:40:07 > 0:40:12three points.He is quality Benteke, he is a footballer with good
0:40:12 > 0:40:16technique, he has a nice touch on the ball. In these final 20 games if
0:40:16 > 0:40:21we can get that level of work rate out of him, he is a good athlete, we
0:40:21 > 0:40:25will ask a lot of questions of defence, when we play at sell Hurst
0:40:25 > 0:40:31an away.How difficult was it for you last weekend?I was more
0:40:31 > 0:40:37frustrated about myself, I didn't feel, I knew my time was going to
0:40:37 > 0:40:41come, to be patient, and work hard. That is what I have done.Seven
0:40:41 > 0:40:46games unbeaten. Their best run since 1990 when Ian
0:40:46 > 0:40:51Wright was playing. We saw Benteke after the debacle, it was important
0:40:51 > 0:40:56he made his mark.It was very much so. The managers are saying they
0:40:56 > 0:41:02can't afford to carry strikers not scoring, you want them not
0:41:02 > 0:41:02can't afford to carry strikers not scoring, you want them not scoring
0:41:02 > 0:41:07or contributing. Maybe he could feed himself out and run behind Maguire,
0:41:07 > 0:41:12he closes his space in the near post, once we run it on you see that
0:41:12 > 0:41:15he is too close, he doesn't get nothing on it. That wasn't bad. What
0:41:15 > 0:41:20we want from him is to be in there. This is the actual goal. He has a
0:41:20 > 0:41:26problem. Windfall comes round, Wes passes him on to Simpson, he is
0:41:26 > 0:41:30worried with Loftus-Cheek. It has gone in the Niddle of the goal. If
0:41:30 > 0:41:35you have Benteke in the side put the ball in the box. Again, good lay
0:41:35 > 0:41:39off, you want him to blast in, look how many Leicester players are back,
0:41:39 > 0:41:43they need another player, that is what he has to do, get back there as
0:41:43 > 0:41:48well. Here gets himself in the vicinity to put marred off. Once
0:41:48 > 0:41:53gets the ball, with his strength, ability, this is what you want. You
0:41:53 > 0:42:01want, he looks strong, put it into windfall who had a good game.
0:42:01 > 0:42:05Another one, once he gets his timing he scores that Herd, he makes a
0:42:05 > 0:42:09great run in the near post. Same here he wait, look he gets in front
0:42:09 > 0:42:15of Maguire but his timing is off. Once gets his timing on, you watch
0:42:15 > 0:42:21it, go its past hip. He could have scored a hat-trick. This one,
0:42:21 > 0:42:25Townsend playd well. Ran Leicester ragd. Didn't know what hit them.
0:42:25 > 0:42:33Hang this up to the far post.It must have been a nightmare for him
0:42:33 > 0:42:42last week.Quite a few decision, sendings off, disallowd goals,
0:42:42 > 0:42:47penalties.It was a difficult afternoon for the referee. This one
0:42:47 > 0:42:52here this is definitely a push, silly, shouldn't have done it on
0:42:52 > 0:42:56Tomkins, Tompkinson and the referee has pickd that up. So it was
0:42:56 > 0:43:00disallowd and Ndidi, now, I think this is harsh, this booking, in
0:43:00 > 0:43:06fairness.He has a nick there,He does, is that necessarily a booking
0:43:06 > 0:43:11but there is no doubt here, I mean Ndidi here, he dives there all day
0:43:11 > 0:43:16long, he is trying to hook his foot on to someone. He is trying
0:43:16 > 0:43:21desperately, defenders are wising up and pulling out of challenges and it
0:43:21 > 0:43:25is 100% a dive.Even though his birthday we have to say this is a
0:43:25 > 0:43:32dive.Absolutely. No points for that. Even with that again, I think,
0:43:32 > 0:43:37I don't, I am not sure why they are appealing. Look, his time is off.
0:43:37 > 0:43:41Gets an opportunity to get a strike on that, Albrighton comes in, look,
0:43:41 > 0:43:46no-one appeals, that could have easily been a penalty.Roy Hodgson
0:43:46 > 0:43:51is doing a job.A great job.The way that he lost his England position,
0:43:51 > 0:43:55against Iceland, and that lookd like it was going to be the end of his
0:43:55 > 0:44:00career, he has come back with dignity, that is an outstanding win
0:44:00 > 0:44:06against a good Leicester team.
0:44:06 > 0:44:08It's four games without a victory for Watford, who welcomed
0:44:08 > 0:44:09Huddersfield to Vicarage Road.
0:44:09 > 0:44:12The visitors had lost five of their last six.
0:44:12 > 0:44:15These two teams were meeting for the first time in the top flight.
0:44:15 > 0:44:17Mark Scott was watching.
0:44:17 > 0:44:21Marco Silva isn't concernd by the sticky patch from Watford, he said
0:44:21 > 0:44:34they are on course to get their goal.
0:44:49 > 0:44:54There has never been a 0-0 between these two, let us hope that doesn't
0:44:54 > 0:44:59change. Kachunga could be in here, there is a bit of a Tangle. Kachunga
0:44:59 > 0:45:03is still going. The ball is still alive and it's a corner. Could have
0:45:03 > 0:45:09been a bit more for Huddersfield there. Everyone seems to stop
0:45:09 > 0:45:14expecting the whistle to go. Kachunga chasing here, a tangle of
0:45:14 > 0:45:20leg, out came Gomes and Kachunga won the corner.
0:45:20 > 0:45:33In from Lowe. Mooy back in, they are cueing up. Chance here and in.
0:45:33 > 0:45:35Kachunga gets Huddersfield's first away goal since the opening day of
0:45:35 > 0:45:42the season. Watford looking in vain at Michael Oliver and continuing
0:45:42 > 0:45:49their protests. Dan Cook was the assistant referee Watford were
0:45:49 > 0:45:53waiting to see the flag from. They could have had it up on two
0:45:53 > 0:46:01occasions. Kachunga is in an offside position. They've got a case there.
0:46:01 > 0:46:08Kachunga from virtually on the goalline couldn't miss. You can see
0:46:08 > 0:46:13why Marco Silva is unhappy. Ince, first action for him. He's given it
0:46:13 > 0:46:23away. Comes for Richarlison! First chance of the game for Watford. It
0:46:23 > 0:46:27dropped to their joint top-scorer this season. Richarlison will be
0:46:27 > 0:46:30disappointed not to have done better from there.
0:46:36 > 0:46:43Nice passage of play this from hutters field. Until that pass. It's
0:46:43 > 0:46:53worked out into a good one. It's in. Aaron Mooy. Huddersfield have two.
0:46:53 > 0:46:57Having failed to score away from home since the opening weekend of
0:46:57 > 0:47:01the season, they have two on the road inside the opening 23 minutes
0:47:01 > 0:47:07today. Watford just switched off there. They assumed the ball was
0:47:07 > 0:47:10just going to drift on.
0:47:12 > 0:47:17The delivery into the six-yard box. Not the most convincing finish from
0:47:17 > 0:47:30Mooy, but it did the job. Watford 0, Huddersfield 2. No way pass Capoue.
0:47:30 > 0:47:33Quaner, again. Deeney has gone through the back of him there. That
0:47:33 > 0:47:39was naughty. And he's off! It's another red card for Watford. The
0:47:39 > 0:47:45third successive game they've had a player sent off in. Well, it goes
0:47:45 > 0:47:50from bad to worse for Marco Silva. Michael Oliver had no hesitation
0:47:50 > 0:47:58whatsoever there. Marco Silva had some complaints about the straight
0:47:58 > 0:48:06red card at Burnley. I wonder what he'll make of that one.
0:48:09 > 0:48:17Now Michael Oliver being asked to brandish a card to the visitors as
0:48:17 > 0:48:23Carrillo was stopped in his tracks by Hogg. It will be a yellow card
0:48:23 > 0:48:34for the Huddersfield skipper. Doucoure. Here's Mooy. Depoitre.
0:48:34 > 0:48:42Neatly done. Quaner, goes down. It's still alive here. Depoitre. It's
0:48:42 > 0:48:52three! Depoitre who got a late consolation against Chelsea in
0:48:52 > 0:48:57midweek, with a goal that sparks early celebrations for the
0:48:57 > 0:49:11Huddersfield fans. And just smashed through the gloves of Gomes. Took
0:49:11 > 0:49:18too long there. He's already been booked here, Hogg. He's going to go.
0:49:18 > 0:49:22Huddersfield are going to be down to 10-men as well. Jonathan Hogg knew
0:49:22 > 0:49:29he was in trouble. It's a clip on the ankles from Hogg here. There was
0:49:29 > 0:49:49little protest from him as well. Here goes Carrillo. Doucoure. Oh,
0:49:49 > 0:49:58fluffed his lines, still alive. Mooy, Pereyra, well saved by Lossl.
0:49:58 > 0:50:05That's a foul on Richarlison. Some encouragement for Watford. Slapped
0:50:05 > 0:50:07away by Lossl.
0:50:11 > 0:50:21Holebas with the free-kick. Doucoure, what a hit! Doucoure with
0:50:21 > 0:50:25an absolute beauty and maybe Watford aren't out of this one just yet. It
0:50:25 > 0:50:32took an age for it to drop, but when it did, he hit it absolutely
0:50:32 > 0:50:38perfectly. That is clean as a whistle. You don't save those.
0:50:38 > 0:50:47Watford 1, Huddersfield 3. That's gifted straight to Williams. Here's
0:50:47 > 0:50:55Ince. Gomes has to make the save. Tom Ince, still waiting for his
0:50:55 > 0:50:58first goal in the Premier League this season. This was a fairly
0:50:58 > 0:51:08routine stop though for Gomes. Mooy take it is short to Ince. Doucoure.
0:51:08 > 0:51:15Oh, is that a penalty? It is. Doucoure was clumsy. Michael Oliver
0:51:15 > 0:51:21says, that's a penalty. Doucoure's loose first touch, trying to
0:51:21 > 0:51:26challenge Depoitre from behind. Impeeds him and Huddersfield have
0:51:26 > 0:51:33the chance to wrap it up. One from close-range this afternoon. And he
0:51:33 > 0:51:38has another from 12 yards now. Huddersfield can celebrate. Only
0:51:38 > 0:51:45their second away win of the season. Wouldn't you just know it, you you
0:51:45 > 0:51:48wait months for an away goal and then be four come along in one
0:51:48 > 0:51:57afternoon. Mooy right in the corner. That's the points. Not much festive
0:51:57 > 0:52:04cheer in the air for Watford fans this afternoon. Here's Ince.
0:52:04 > 0:52:06Williams.
0:52:11 > 0:52:16Depoitre in the middle. Towards Depoitre. A chance to settle it for
0:52:16 > 0:52:19Quaner. Off the line. Watford 1, Huddersfield
0:52:19 > 0:52:22Quaner. Off the line. Watford 1, Huddersfield 4.What makes me
0:52:22 > 0:52:29satisfied is the players were able to transform the theory onto the
0:52:29 > 0:52:34grass. They have shown unbelievable performance today. I'm so delighted
0:52:34 > 0:52:37for them and our supporters. It was a very exciting, very satisfying
0:52:37 > 0:52:42afternoon for us.I think important for us was from the first minute we
0:52:42 > 0:52:49stick to our gameplan. We did we set to do. Like always, if everyone
0:52:49 > 0:52:52focused and stayed together, we look good. I think that's why we deserved
0:52:52 > 0:52:56the three points today.The competition in the Premier League is
0:52:56 > 0:53:0238 games, it's not only 10. You needed to keep going, to work. Some
0:53:02 > 0:53:06moments this season you can have bad moments, you need to react.Kachunga
0:53:06 > 0:53:10how is he? Stretchered off with what looks to be a knee injury?Yeah. It
0:53:10 > 0:53:14is a knee injury. We have to make further investigations over the next
0:53:14 > 0:53:19couple of days to find out how serious it is. Chris got knocked on
0:53:19 > 0:53:25his foot. He doesn't look too good at the minute. I'm not able to say,
0:53:25 > 0:53:28we have to wait.What are your thoughts on the first goal from
0:53:28 > 0:53:35Huddersfield?I don't want to talk. I hope you talk about not only the
0:53:35 > 0:53:39first goal, but everything. I don't want to talk more.We will talk
0:53:39 > 0:53:43about the first goal. We talked earlier in the show, didn't we, how
0:53:43 > 0:53:46important the first goal is in any game. Huddersfield great win for
0:53:46 > 0:53:48them. Comfortable in the end. The first goal it
0:53:48 > 0:53:52them. Comfortable in the end. The first goal it was offside?Yeah.
0:53:52 > 0:53:55Kachunga is offside twice. It's a melee. They should have cleared the
0:53:55 > 0:54:01ball. But they don't. Arrives at Kachunga. He's already offside, camp
0:54:01 > 0:54:07catch. Kachunga. He's offside again. A joke decision, to be fair.
0:54:07 > 0:54:10Wondering what the linesman is doing there. He should be picking that up.
0:54:10 > 0:54:16It's been a disastrous period for them. No win in five, Silva linked
0:54:16 > 0:54:20with the Everton job, gone from bad to worse.Two red cards in the game
0:54:20 > 0:54:26to look at, Ian?Yeah. I can't understand why... I think it's the
0:54:26 > 0:54:30aggressive nature in which he goes for that why he has been sent off. I
0:54:30 > 0:54:35don't think he catches too much. He's won the ball. He has lunged in.
0:54:35 > 0:54:40It's unlucky there.I don't see I can't see why he went in that high.
0:54:40 > 0:54:43Didn't need to do that.Could have nicked that away from him.Second
0:54:43 > 0:54:49yellow.He's not even looking. Trying to pass the ball forward.I
0:54:49 > 0:54:51think referee's need understanding of the player. He can't see his
0:54:51 > 0:54:57opponent there. He played it blind hogg. Sent off, two He is not
0:54:57 > 0:55:00yellows.Trying to swipe. He tried to pass.We have seen worse
0:55:00 > 0:55:05challenges than that today?We have in other games. We were in the
0:55:05 > 0:55:09office there was defending in this game had you hurling your
0:55:09 > 0:55:13paintbrushes. Talk us through it? It's Holebas. The defender. You have
0:55:13 > 0:55:17to be brave. That's part of the ingredients, the DNA. If this was a
0:55:17 > 0:55:20Sunday league match, a young kid I was working with the team and I
0:55:20 > 0:55:24would say, you can't do this in an adult game, a proper match, go down
0:55:24 > 0:55:27and stop defending when you get a slap in the face am you see it from
0:55:27 > 0:55:32this angle here. I can't believe it, Holebas, he goes down, holding his
0:55:32 > 0:55:36face and allowed Depoitre to run through and smack the ball home. He
0:55:36 > 0:55:40is being looking, no blood, fella, you are not kidding me. He needs to
0:55:40 > 0:55:45be braver than that.21 points in 18 games for Huddersfield. Ter rifshg.
0:55:45 > 0:55:50Not good for Watford, I say.I was asking about Huddersfield?Sorry, I
0:55:50 > 0:55:54didn't realise. I dropped my gun there.Pay attention.OK, my friend,
0:55:54 > 0:55:57I'm sorry.
0:55:57 > 0:56:00Chelsea had won four in a row at Stamford Bridge ahead
0:56:00 > 0:56:02of their game against Southampton, who'd picked up just one victory
0:56:02 > 0:56:04on the road this season.
0:56:04 > 0:56:05Simon Brotherton was watching.
0:56:05 > 0:56:06SIMON BROTHERTON:
0:56:06 > 0:56:10Chelsea have won seven of their last nine matches. They lost only one.
0:56:10 > 0:56:14Their lead has only increased at the top. Cahill was among the
0:56:14 > 0:56:18goalscorers in this fixture last season, 4-2 Chelsea win. He is
0:56:18 > 0:56:22recalled for this one with Rudiger dropping down to the bench. It's all
0:56:22 > 0:56:25change for Southampton after the midweek horror show against
0:56:25 > 0:56:38Leicester City. Among six changes Stevens comes in. Half a dozen are
0:56:38 > 0:56:40dropped to the bench.
0:56:42 > 0:56:49Forward by Stevens. Azpilicueta underneath it. Nicely cushioned.
0:56:49 > 0:56:53Given away by Conte. Doesn't happen often that. Into Bertrand here. A
0:56:53 > 0:56:59threat about Southampton. Oh, Cahill just about got away with it. Oh,
0:56:59 > 0:57:04just got stuck between his feet. Worrisome moment for Chelsea.
0:57:04 > 0:57:09Southampton are actually looking quite lively here in the opening 10
0:57:09 > 0:57:18minutes. He questioned the attitude of his players during the week.
0:57:18 > 0:57:22Interesting to see the response today. Now there is space for will
0:57:22 > 0:57:31Yann to run into. Alonso on the near side in support. - Willian. Looks
0:57:31 > 0:57:36for the opening. Fraser Forster with the save. The challenge took the
0:57:36 > 0:57:43sting out of the shot. The danger is still not over. Now Southampton get
0:57:43 > 0:57:47it away. Chelsea starting to knock-on the door here in this first
0:57:47 > 0:57:58half. Good play. So difficult to dispossess. That was fabulous. A
0:57:58 > 0:58:04tremendous shot. Beaten away again by Fraser Forster. Superb play, in a
0:58:04 > 0:58:14very tight corner here from Willian. Alonso shooting with great velocity
0:58:14 > 0:58:20here. They have won 14 of the last 18 matches here in all competitions,
0:58:20 > 0:58:24losing to Burnley and Manchester City. This is Pedro. Gets a second
0:58:24 > 0:58:29go. Pedro is still going. Oh, it smacks the post. Southampton are
0:58:29 > 0:58:41fortunate there. They will have a free-kick. But Lemina inside his
0:58:41 > 0:58:46penalty. Southampton relieved to see it back in play. Van Dijk, one of
0:58:46 > 0:58:52six players dropped down to the bench today. Here's Alonso. Let's it
0:58:52 > 0:59:04run. Hazard with a lovely turn against Yoshida. Free-kick. Yellow
0:59:04 > 0:59:08card for Yoshida. This will be the last bit of defending that
0:59:08 > 0:59:11Southampton will be required to do I think between now and the half-time
0:59:11 > 0:59:22whistle. It is's Alonso for Chelsea. And it's in! Last kick of the first
0:59:22 > 0:59:25half. Fraser Forster couldn't get across and get down wick quick
0:59:25 > 0:59:30enough to keep the ball at bay. Forster was just caught out there,
0:59:30 > 0:59:41standing with his hands on his knees for a moment. K saints 11 place in
0:59:41 > 0:59:44the table, nine clubs below them in the Premier League, but they are
0:59:44 > 0:59:49only four points above the relegation zone. Here comes Charlie
0:59:49 > 0:59:53Austin, first touch since coming off the bench. It's their first shot on
0:59:53 > 0:59:58target in the whole match, with just over an hour played. Almost an
0:59:58 > 0:59:59instant impact from the in-form Austin.
1:00:05 > 1:00:11look like he may have handled the ball outside the penalty area. that
1:00:11 > 1:00:13is what southampton's player were complaining about. right on the
1:00:13 > 1:00:20line. southampton giving courtois
1:00:20 > 1:00:25something to do. john terry among those watching at
1:00:25 > 1:00:29the bridge today. injured at the moment so unavailable for aston
1:00:29 > 1:00:39villa.
1:00:39 > 1:00:45The flag has gone up. It won't count. What a lovely looking goal.
1:00:45 > 1:00:49What a way that was for Fabregas to announce his arrival on the pitch by
1:00:49 > 1:01:00setting his team-mate up. The flag had gone up.
1:01:00 > 1:01:05Azpilicueta, Bakayoko, timely intervention by Yoshida.
1:01:05 > 1:01:12Chance to shoot it for Alonso. Save from Forster. Very close to the
1:01:12 > 1:01:23goalkeeper that one.
1:01:23 > 1:01:28Azpilicueta beaten by the bounce. Charlie Austin is in there now. He
1:01:28 > 1:01:33was almost losing his balance as he tried to get his foot to ball.
1:01:33 > 1:01:38Keeping Chelsea on their toes here. Southampton fans behind their team
1:01:38 > 1:01:42now. They have frustrated Chelsea for the
1:01:42 > 1:01:52most part today. Morata.
1:01:52 > 1:02:00Challenged by lamb that -- Lemina, free kick.
1:02:00 > 1:02:03Willian has taken it quickly. Into Fabregas.
1:02:03 > 1:02:10Oh, just wide. Stadium held its breath for a
1:02:10 > 1:02:13moment, wondering whether it might trickle over the line.
1:02:13 > 1:02:20And Fabregas, as he was challenged inside the box, almost when he got a
1:02:20 > 1:02:25push in the back there, the Southampton defender Stevens got
1:02:25 > 1:02:25away with
1:02:25 > 1:02:27Southampton defender Stevens got away with that one. We dominated the
1:02:27 > 1:02:35game. We didn't have many chances to score. In the one game you shoot 24
1:02:35 > 1:02:41times, eight on the target. We dominated the game. We deserved to
1:02:41 > 1:02:47win. Big statements before the match, making six changes.From
1:02:47 > 1:02:52Wednesday night to Saturday midday, less than three days to recover. It
1:02:52 > 1:02:58is not easy to keep the same performance, the same physical
1:02:58 > 1:03:04condition, we had to try to change some players.It looked as if you
1:03:04 > 1:03:09caught their goalkeeper off guard. Yes, very good minute to score, you
1:03:09 > 1:03:14go quickly to half-time, and, yes, happy to score and help the team
1:03:14 > 1:03:18with the three points -- points. It was disappointing against West Ham.
1:03:18 > 1:03:23This is the way to follow in the next few games.Hen question talk
1:03:23 > 1:03:27about Premier League, there are ten or 12 teams that are involved in
1:03:27 > 1:03:31three, four, five six point, when you think about 38 game, we are
1:03:31 > 1:03:36really tight, and one week, in two week, everything can change.
1:03:36 > 1:03:40Raise they is most certainly true. Just the one goal in there,
1:03:40 > 1:03:42wonderful free kick from Alonso, he does strike a beautiful ball. You
1:03:42 > 1:03:47weren't happy with the wall and the goalkeeper.It is a shame for
1:03:47 > 1:03:52Forester, he makes seven good saves in the game. This is not right here.
1:03:52 > 1:03:58Gabbiadini, there, I don't know why he is lining the wall. He should be
1:03:58 > 1:04:02turning round and facing the keeper. Forster almost accepts. He moves
1:04:02 > 1:04:07into the middle of the goal. It is very lazy, Alonso can see you know
1:04:07 > 1:04:11he is about to take it. If you look at the goalkeeper, he looks to the
1:04:11 > 1:04:14left. I don't know why, because the goal isn't moving so he needs to
1:04:14 > 1:04:19look straight ahead. He looks to his right he has his hands on his knee,
1:04:19 > 1:04:21one minute before half-time. He starts to move and he can't
1:04:21 > 1:04:21one minute before half-time. He starts to move and he can't make up
1:04:21 > 1:04:26the time. It is ridiculous, if you see from behind the goal. ?It is
1:04:26 > 1:04:30unusual to go round the wall.That wall should be slightly over, one
1:04:30 > 1:04:35more step out. It is a great, take nothing away from the free kick
1:04:35 > 1:04:39because it is excellent lent, very accurate. Forster is not ready. He
1:04:39 > 1:04:44let his team down there.Eight wins in ten for Chelsea.It could have

1:06:20 > 1:06:21Takeover talks continue at Newcastle.
1:06:21 > 1:06:23They'd picked up just one point from eight games,
1:06:23 > 1:06:26ahead of a trip to Arsenal, who'd won nine in a row
1:06:26 > 1:06:27against their North-East opponents.
1:06:27 > 1:06:33Steve Bower was at the Emirates.
1:06:33 > 1:06:37STEVE BOWER:
1:06:37 > 1:06:41Having been rested asmall find way through West Ham, top scorer
1:06:41 > 1:06:47Lacazette is back in from the start, Giroud revert tots the bench. Rob
1:06:47 > 1:06:53Elliot is in the Newcastle goal. He is recalled in favour of Darlow, one
1:06:53 > 1:07:02of five changes that include Hayden. The 22-year-old replaces the
1:07:02 > 1:07:12suspended Shelvey. Lacazette. Bellerin. Ozil's touch.
1:07:12 > 1:07:21Sanchez. Readjust it.
1:07:21 > 1:07:24Sanchez. Readjust it. Couldn't get over it.
1:07:24 > 1:07:29Purr rewatching on in his role as ambassador for the Arsenal
1:07:29 > 1:07:31foundation. -- perre.
1:07:38 > 1:07:45Maitland-Niles. He might have a shot as well.
1:07:45 > 1:07:51Agonisingly close to a landmark moment. It was all about him.
1:07:51 > 1:07:56Made it himself, and almost finished himself.
1:08:01 > 1:08:04Xhaka went straight into Hayden. Perez. Terrific defending from
1:08:04 > 1:08:11Koscielny. Now Wilshere.
1:08:11 > 1:08:17Nicely weighted pass. Iwobi drove it across, Sanchez in the end had the
1:08:17 > 1:08:27shot. Ozil! What a hit from Ozil. That flew into the back of the net.
1:08:27 > 1:08:32His third goal of the season. Sanchez had a go, Wilshere on the
1:08:32 > 1:08:37stretch. But look at that for technique.
1:08:37 > 1:08:43Text book from the German. Coming down, on the left foot, bang. He has
1:08:43 > 1:08:49that real quality. And Arsenal have the lead.
1:08:49 > 1:08:57A lot of chasing at the moment. Xhaka, might fancy a go.
1:08:57 > 1:09:02Not too far away from a third ever Premier League goal. Plenty of time
1:09:02 > 1:09:05and space to assess the circumstances just dragged it wide
1:09:05 > 1:09:10of the post. Not much to national minimum wage
1:09:10 > 1:09:15smile on or off the pitch at the moment. The January the rest
1:09:15 > 1:09:18transfer budget, crucial in his efforts, to ensure Newcastle are in
1:09:18 > 1:09:24the Premier League next season. Iwobi into Ozil.
1:09:26 > 1:09:31Lacazette. Back to Ozil.
1:09:31 > 1:09:37Newcastle scramble a corner. Terrific link up. Ozil, as soon as
1:09:37 > 1:09:40he gives the pass, then he go, Lacazette saw him. Newcastle
1:09:40 > 1:09:44thankful in the end it was on his weaker foot.
1:09:44 > 1:09:49Lacazette. Wilshere.
1:09:49 > 1:09:54Lacazette has continued his run. That is where he intended to pass
1:09:54 > 1:10:02Ozil. Iwobi ran into traffic, Elliott just about clawed it away.
1:10:02 > 1:10:06So many bodies in there, that was really good reaction in fairness to
1:10:06 > 1:10:10Elliott. While on the ground.
1:10:10 > 1:10:20Cleared by Lascelles. Perez is found. Murphy. Has he got
1:10:20 > 1:10:28room for the shot? Oh, he asked a question there of Cech.
1:10:28 > 1:10:39And Hayden. Only one goal in front Arsenal. Murphy just stepping
1:10:39 > 1:10:47inside. A save you would expect Cech to make. He is thinking just maybe.
1:10:47 > 1:11:021-0, question do something. Iwobi. Lacazette. Onside. Went for
1:11:02 > 1:11:05the audacious chip. Another opportunity they will feel they
1:11:05 > 1:11:12could have done better with. Lacazette, timed his return, because
1:11:12 > 1:11:16Yedlin was playing his on, instead of going for power he went for
1:11:16 > 1:11:23precision. Sanchez.
1:11:23 > 1:11:30Ozil. Sanchez looking for Giroud. He
1:11:30 > 1:11:34headed it back to Wilshere. Great start from Elliott.
1:11:34 > 1:11:40You have to go back to May 2015, for Jack Wilshere's last Premier League
1:11:40 > 1:11:47goal. He thought he had changed it there.
1:11:47 > 1:11:52Lascelles looking for Joselu. Into Gayle. The shot was deflected.
1:11:52 > 1:11:56Koscielny for a corner. Really good link up between Joselu and Gayle.
1:11:56 > 1:12:02The span credit card was available to shoot.
1:12:02 > 1:12:07Koscielny then Xhaka, just wide. They would love nothing more for the
1:12:07 > 1:12:11deflection to fly into the back of the net to stop the rot that is
1:12:11 > 1:12:17heading to one point from 27. Ritchie. Terrific delivery, over
1:12:17 > 1:12:24Gayle. Oh, and then in came Perez. With a big chance.
1:12:24 > 1:12:30Cech was rooted there. Fabulous cross from Ritchie.
1:12:30 > 1:12:33Perez will be very disappointed he hasn't hit the target.
1:12:33 > 1:12:34Perez will be very disappointed he hasn't hit the target.
1:12:34 > 1:12:40I think of all we deserved to win. We had plenty of chances but after
1:12:40 > 1:12:45five ten minutes we became edgy because we had to win today. We
1:12:45 > 1:12:51hadn't made enough of a deference to be comfortable, but of all, I hotel
1:12:51 > 1:12:55that we dominated quite well, the game.You are in the bottom three,
1:12:55 > 1:13:01how worrying is thatSo close all the teams that this one game, you go
1:13:01 > 1:13:06three, four positions up, if you can win like us at the moment, it is two
1:13:06 > 1:13:11or three game, they were so close we cannot get a draw, we can't win,
1:13:11 > 1:13:15normally teams that can draw, they can win, but the main thing is to be
1:13:15 > 1:13:20competitive like today, and, keep going.Jack Wilshere starts two
1:13:20 > 1:13:24consecutive league gapes for Arsenal for the first time in two half years
1:13:24 > 1:13:29and he has lasted the full 90 minutes.That is what you want. I
1:13:29 > 1:13:35had an eye on him, for today may be an hour 65, but basically, takes
1:13:35 > 1:13:39advantage from having had the good long preparation, and good stamina,
1:13:39 > 1:13:44and he did finish quite strong today.
1:13:44 > 1:13:46It takes uz us perfectly into Wilshere. There has not been a
1:13:46 > 1:13:51question about his ability. It has been his fitness. It would be great
1:13:51 > 1:13:57to see him get a run.He is one of Arsenal's top quality player, you
1:13:57 > 1:14:01look at hip here, his technical ability, his drive, when he does get
1:14:01 > 1:14:04the ball, he is looking to penetrate, he is looking to hurt
1:14:04 > 1:14:10you, he is looking to get in super pass, his appreciation for the pass
1:14:10 > 1:14:18is fant stick, you watch here this is the goal. -- fantastic.Ozil. A
1:14:18 > 1:14:23lot of people give Ozil stick. What about the finish?He is going
1:14:23 > 1:14:26backwards as well. That is a difficult skill, but like we are
1:14:26 > 1:14:30talking about a world class player. Jack, people round him, they say he
1:14:30 > 1:14:33has to be careful going into traffic, he has the capability. The
1:14:33 > 1:14:34skill
1:14:34 > 1:14:36traffic, he has the capability. The skill to do it. When you look here,
1:14:36 > 1:14:41Martin, once he gets on the ball. Look at this pass. I don't care what
1:14:41 > 1:14:46anyone says if he is fit he should be in the midfield.But he is free
1:14:46 > 1:14:50in his mind. He can play and express himself and be the player he wants
1:14:50 > 1:14:56to be, that is nine times he has played 90 minutes this season. Is
1:14:56 > 1:15:01there no question about fitn't. When Ramsey is fit, is he going to stick
1:15:01 > 1:15:06with hem.He could have finished it off with a goal.Newcastle are
1:15:06 > 1:15:11struggling. Raise raidsIt is a quality issue, they haven't got the
1:15:11 > 1:15:16quality. In this game they could have nicked something at the end.
1:15:16 > 1:15:20Not a lot of options on for them. This is what was happening for
1:15:20 > 1:15:24people like Murphy, Gayle came on later and that was the kind of stuff
1:15:24 > 1:15:29they were feeding on, here, just get the ball under control and lay out
1:15:29 > 1:15:33there, he throws his body at it. That sciend of stuff. Hold the ball,
1:15:33 > 1:15:37lay it in, play it to him. On the side. Keep possession, try and get
1:15:37 > 1:15:40yourself in the game. I don't think they had three or four passes to
1:15:40 > 1:15:44each other all game. Try a short one, in the end they kick it out of
1:15:44 > 1:15:49play and like the chance, I said, even though they were poor today,
1:15:49 > 1:15:55they still created this chance, it was, he has to hit the target. That
1:15:55 > 1:15:59was the worry for Arsenal for me.
1:15:59 > 1:16:01Burnley began the day in sixth, level on points
1:16:01 > 1:16:02with Spurs and Liverpool.
1:16:02 > 1:16:04Brighton had gone six games without a win.
1:16:04 > 1:16:07This was the second game today to see two teams meeting in the top
1:16:07 > 1:16:08flight for the first time.
1:16:08 > 1:16:10The commentator at the Amex Stadium was Steve Wilson.
1:16:10 > 1:16:17STEVE WILSON:
1:16:17 > 1:16:24Chris Hughton continues to rotate with four changes. Gros has been a
1:16:24 > 1:16:29real success story since joining for a modest £3 million. Chris Wood is
1:16:29 > 1:16:33one of four former Brighton players currently at Burnley. He got nine
1:16:33 > 1:16:39clubs for a club on a season on-loan from West Bromwich Albion. He's
1:16:39 > 1:16:43Burnley's top-scorer. Another former Leeds man, Charlie Taylor, makes his
1:16:43 > 1:16:46full Premier League are debut.
1:16:53 > 1:17:00Great header, Murray. Gros. Lovely ball, as well. March at the back
1:17:00 > 1:17:04post. Bardsley was very aware of what was happening. Knockaert to
1:17:04 > 1:17:10Bruno. Encouragement here for the home side. Oh, straight into the
1:17:10 > 1:17:17gloves of Nick Pope from Murray. Right on to Murray's head. Good
1:17:17 > 1:17:22header. He's unlucky Glenn murp ray, straight into the goalkeeper's
1:17:22 > 1:17:37gloves. 59, had his birthday earlier this Mount Chris Hughton. Arfield.
1:17:37 > 1:17:46Gudmundsson, given too much room to turn. Saved by Matt Ryan. I wonder
1:17:46 > 1:17:52how close Chris Wood was to being able to divert that. The header has
1:17:52 > 1:17:57fallen to Stevens. Four in this Brighton attack. Stevens taking it.
1:17:57 > 1:18:02Good fab by Brighton. Knockaert. Oh, unfortunate. Didn't get a second
1:18:02 > 1:18:07chance. Now Stevens. Good block by Defour. Not really cleared by
1:18:07 > 1:18:14Hendrick. Smashed off the offside of the post from Anthony Knockaert.
1:18:14 > 1:18:17This was Burnley's opportunity just before that. Gudmundsson on the
1:18:17 > 1:18:29turn. Took a little deflection. Gros to Anthony Knockaert. Bruno.
1:18:32 > 1:18:36No risks from Phil Bardsley. Brighton have their first corner of
1:18:36 > 1:18:43the game. They are on the front foot. In it goes from Gros. Off the
1:18:43 > 1:18:48line. It's actually an absolutely magnificent clearance off the line.
1:18:48 > 1:18:52Well Dunk must have thought it was going in. Bardsley, standing right
1:18:52 > 1:18:57on the line, diverts it over the bar. It's a fantastic goalline
1:18:57 > 1:19:07clearance by Bardsley. Looking for Murray. In behind Tarkowski. Not
1:19:07 > 1:19:13much of an angle to work with. Tarkowski's challenge. Penalty.
1:19:13 > 1:19:22Tarkowski on Murray. Penalty, Brighton. Well, Murray stuck his
1:19:22 > 1:19:28legs between Tarkowski's and then gone to ground. Murray has won this.
1:19:28 > 1:19:37It's been given. Murray himself is going to take it. And misses! Over
1:19:37 > 1:19:43the bar from Glenn Murray. He scored two out of two before that this
1:19:43 > 1:19:49season from 12 yards. When your team is struggling for goals you cannot
1:19:49 > 1:19:57afford to turn away a gift horse. Gross to Murray. Sliding into
1:19:57 > 1:20:11Murray. Now, Murray has gone down inside the penalty area again. He
1:20:11 > 1:20:16did get an elbow in the ribs there from Tarkowski.
1:20:21 > 1:20:25Here's Anthony Knockaert. Murray in the middle. Knockaert running at
1:20:25 > 1:20:29Mee. Oh, right across the face of goal, somehow through the
1:20:29 > 1:20:33goalkeeper's hands, but not close enough to Murray. Knockaert, through
1:20:33 > 1:20:39the legs of Mee and somehow, underneath the Burnley keeper, Pope.
1:20:39 > 1:20:45They have come a long way in the cold, they might as well sing.
1:20:49 > 1:20:54Here's space for Hendrick. Just taken from him. Double save. Then
1:20:54 > 1:21:01Wood, offside. Well, Matt Ryan performed heroics for Brighton. This
1:21:01 > 1:21:08is a really good save. As was the follow-up, but Wood, just, just
1:21:08 > 1:21:20offside. Both sides in that difficult position of not being sure
1:21:20 > 1:21:23whether to push on and win it or make sure they don't lose it. Here's
1:21:23 > 1:21:30Barnes. Clever ball that. Onside, Chris Wood. Good save by Ryan. He
1:21:30 > 1:21:35tried to dink Wood and Ryan was equal to it. Clever ball this by
1:21:35 > 1:21:41Barnes. Good decision too, the referee's assistant. He's definitely
1:21:41 > 1:21:52onside. Taylor's head. It's going to come down inside the penalty area.
1:21:52 > 1:21:57The referee never looked interested in that. Knocked it beyond Mee. It's
1:21:57 > 1:22:01not inside the penalty area. B, I don't think there's any contact.
1:22:01 > 1:22:04That's the cue for some to decide enough is enough.
1:22:04 > 1:22:05That's the cue for some to decide enough is enough.It's tough in the
1:22:05 > 1:22:11Premier League to gets points on the board hes eggsings when the games
1:22:11 > 1:22:15come thick and fast. To have three clean sheets and get points in the
1:22:15 > 1:22:20week in the Premier League is pleasing.A lot going on between
1:22:20 > 1:22:25Tarkowski and Murray. One penalty given and a couple weren't?We have
1:22:25 > 1:22:28two competitive players. We want to see that. There will be physicality
1:22:28 > 1:22:33between the two of them. The things that matter are, you know, the major
1:22:33 > 1:22:37incidents. The penalty which was given and the penalty that should
1:22:37 > 1:22:43have been given when Tarkowski elbows Glenn in the ribs. Glenn
1:22:43 > 1:22:47generally doesn't go down and stay down.I haven't seen anything yet.
1:22:47 > 1:22:54If that's the case, they definitely need to look at Izquierdo. Thank you
1:22:54 > 1:22:59for correcting me. How someone goes down with that minimal contact on a
1:22:59 > 1:23:06shoulder, goes down in that manner, I'm... I'm surprised.We will look
1:23:06 > 1:23:09at it straightaway, in fact twochlt incidents, the elbow and
1:23:09 > 1:23:10at it straightaway, in fact twochlt incidents, the elbow and the dive.
1:23:10 > 1:23:16He's walking in there. He's, bam. He might be in trouble with that.
1:23:16 > 1:23:19Should have been a penalty.Should have been a penalty. I think he's
1:23:19 > 1:23:26right.Both managers are right, in fact. Because at the other end.For
1:23:26 > 1:23:31me, because he doesn't get booked, so nothing happens. They have to be
1:23:31 > 1:23:34stamping that out. They should be looking at that. The touch, look at
1:23:34 > 1:23:40him. Come on!Blatant dive.Because he doesn't get booked, they don't do
1:23:40 > 1:23:46anything about that.Yes. We are out of time now a look at the Premier
1:23:46 > 1:23:49League table. Manchester City stretch their lead to 14 points
1:23:49 > 1:23:53although Manchester United can cut the gap just a little when they
1:23:53 > 1:23:57visit West Brom on Sunday. Arsenal climb from seventh to fourth.
1:23:57 > 1:24:01Burnley rise to fifth. West Ham and Crystal Palace move out of the
1:24:01 > 1:24:07relegation zone and are replaced by West Brom and Newcastle. Meanwhile
1:24:07 > 1:24:09Huddersfield win leaves them six points clear of the bottom three.
1:24:09 > 1:24:14Let us see what the papers have to say. The It Telegraph, whenster
1:24:14 > 1:24:18Sterling arrived at Manchester City's training ground ground he was
1:24:18 > 1:24:22confronted by a man who racially abused and kicked him. Most other
1:24:22 > 1:24:27papers focus on City's winning strikes with the Times calling it,
1:24:27 > 1:24:32"sweet 16 for the leaders." The Ken Livingstone mail, De Bruyne's
1:24:32 > 1:24:37brilliance calling him King Kevin.
1:24:37 > 1:24:40It's a full moon at the Etihad, as Spurs get their pants pulled down.
1:24:40 > 1:24:46Goodbye.
