hello there, coming up tonight, all of the drama from the third round of

:00:38.:00:43.

the capital one cup, as the likes of Manchester United, Chelsea,

:00:43.:00:46.

Manchester City, Arsenal and the holders, Swansea, join the

:00:46.:00:49.

competition. Steve Claridge joins me this evening

:00:49.:00:54.

to reflect on a frantic 48 hours. With no pun intended, his manager

:00:54.:00:59.

admitted he is champing at the bit. A matter of only three weeks since

:01:00.:01:04.

they lost at Anfield. Manchester United go head-to-head with

:01:04.:01:08.

Liverpool, but this time Luis Suarez is available for the first time

:01:08.:01:14.

since his ten match ban for biting. Spurs are adjusting to life after

:01:14.:01:17.

Gareth Bale, going well at home and in Europe.

:01:17.:01:23.

Yesterday they made another statement of intent at Villa Park.

:01:23.:01:28.

Swindon pulled off the shock of round two, beating QPR at Loftus

:01:28.:01:33.

Road. On Tuesday night, Mark Cooper's side had the chance to take

:01:33.:01:37.

on a bigger scalp as Jose Mourinho's mercurial Chelsea are

:01:37.:01:41.

arrived at the County ground. With the third round producing another

:01:41.:01:48.

goal fest, we have all the drama and the odd talking point on the way.

:01:48.:01:53.

First tonight, in intriguing cup tie at Old Trafford, where a football

:01:53.:02:01.

star, Luis Suarez, made a dramatic return after a ten match ban for

:02:01.:02:06.

biting. It was a chance to write a few rungs after Saturday's

:02:06.:02:10.

comprehensive derby defeat at Manchester City. The commentator is

:02:10.:02:12.

Guy Mowbray. Luis Suarez's return was never going

:02:12.:02:21.

to be low-key, and the fates have conspired now to make it in this

:02:21.:02:28.

great rivalry in which in the pasty has significantly contributed.

:02:28.:02:30.

Manchester United have a team significantly different than

:02:30.:02:32.

Saturday's defeat. Luis Suarez's inclusion is of course

:02:32.:02:45.

the Liverpool headline, but interesting he is only one of two

:02:45.:02:48.

changes that have been made by Brendan Rodgers. Was a entry key

:02:48.:02:50.

again comes David Moyes has crashed out of this

:02:51.:03:20.

competition with Everton in the last three seasons. He got past the

:03:20.:03:25.

fourth round once with the toffees, a semifinalist in the 2008-7 season.

:03:26.:03:37.

Henry came looking for Luis Suarez, and he has found him with a

:03:37.:03:46.

brilliant ball. Just rolls away from Suarez. Suarez was not usual his

:03:46.:03:53.

clinical close control. -- not his usual.

:03:53.:04:03.

He has gone for it! You would not have bet against him finding the

:04:03.:04:16.

corner. A keenly focused Brendan Rodgers, nervous movement from foot

:04:16.:04:24.

to foot. David Moyes is remembering the action over the weekend. Good

:04:24.:04:29.

progress down the touchline. Great work from Raphael.

:04:29.:04:35.

Fernandez, the Brazilian full-back once more.

:04:35.:04:44.

to go. His first activity near that Liverpool goal for a while.

:04:44.:04:59.

Just a watching brief for Marouane Fellaini tonight, he played and

:04:59.:05:04.

scored for Everton in this competition already this season.

:05:04.:05:19.

Chris Smalling has managed to turn it behind. It could have been a

:05:19.:05:23.

Chris Smalling has managed to turn little bit different, the result of

:05:23.:05:29.

that. The ball could have ended up in a very different place, he had to

:05:29.:05:30.

make sure he got it away from in a very different place, he had to

:05:30.:05:35.

Sturridge. So far it has been an interesting game to watch. Not

:05:35.:05:36.

cagey, pretty open. Away we go with the second half. No

:05:36.:05:48.

changes in terms of personnel made by either manager during the break.

:05:48.:05:53.

Both managers have stopped to watch Nani try to trick his way down the

:05:53.:06:05.

punch line. Manchester United have a corner within seconds of the

:06:05.:06:11.

restart. -- down the touchline. He has a chance, and he can

:06:11.:06:17.

celebrate a goal! Xabier Fernandez Gaztanaga 1047 seconds after

:06:17.:06:17.

half-time. -- Javier Hernandez. He did well to

:06:18.:06:39.

turn his body and deflect the ball. The man on the spot. It is the

:06:39.:06:44.

Mexican, and it is Manchester United one, Liverpool nil.

:06:44.:06:49.

That is where David Moyes was watching it. Now he can take a seat.

:06:49.:07:05.

It has come for Henderson, who has passed it wide of the post. Pretty

:07:05.:07:11.

much as good a chance as Liverpool have had all game. Anderson thought

:07:11.:07:14.

he had found the target. It is measured but it is curling away as

:07:14.:07:16.

soon as it leaves his boot. That Japanese star has had a

:07:16.:07:31.

look -- has not had a good look at goal for a while. It was not far

:07:31.:07:32.

away. David Leakey has hardly had made a

:07:32.:08:08.

save all night but he was at one. -- de Gea.

:08:08.:08:10.

Yellow card for the United man, free kick, Liverpool. It had plenty of

:08:11.:08:17.

power, but it was just too straight. Jones was just a little over eager.

:08:17.:08:29.

Over the wall and it is the thickness part of the -- thickest

:08:29.:08:34.

part of the crossbar that denies the equaliser. Over the tallest part of

:08:34.:08:36.

the wall, as well. it is going to be a yellow card for

:08:36.:08:54.

Jordan Henderson. It is a free kick just outside the box. There is

:08:54.:09:00.

Henderson's first grab back, then a target. It is going to be the right

:09:00.:09:09.

foot of Rooney. He has got it through and it is a

:09:09.:09:16.

good save by Mignolet. Rooney is trying to extend a three-game

:09:16.:09:17.

scoring streak. Mignolet beats it behind. A superb

:09:17.:09:33.

base Michael two superb Wayne Rooney efforts kept out by the Belgian

:09:33.:09:37.

goalkeeper. This will be the end of the capital one Cup Rd for Liverpool

:09:37.:09:40.

this season. But Manchester United go on.

:09:40.:09:48.

One goal has won it for Old Trafford, the goal came really early

:09:48.:09:53.

in the second half, 47 seconds into it. David Moyes was still on his way

:09:53.:09:57.

back to the halfway line and only just saw it. It has finished after a

:09:57.:10:02.

really entertaining second half. Manchester United one, Liverpool

:10:02.:10:07.

nil. I got the feeling fans, players, everyone got everything out

:10:07.:10:11.

of the system tonight. From our point of view we lost at Anfield and

:10:11.:10:15.

had a poor result that the Etihad Stadium at the weekend so we had to

:10:15.:10:18.

ensure we got something better than we had done. The win is always

:10:18.:10:24.

perform -- important, as important as performances.

:10:24.:10:30.

We are disappointed at the goal, we conceded a goal at the weekend from

:10:30.:10:34.

a corner and it is something we need to look at. It should be defended

:10:34.:10:40.

much better. But I think the players were terrific, the board on the

:10:40.:10:43.

pressure on the second half and maybe the final ball of the final

:10:43.:10:48.

pass did not happen for us. The first group of defenders to face

:10:48.:10:52.

Luis Suarez for a while, he gave you a game. He always does, he is one of

:10:52.:10:56.

the hardest centre forwards I have ever played against. He is always on

:10:56.:11:01.

the move. He commits you. He is not the type to let off, he will try and

:11:01.:11:06.

run at you, beat you, you always have to be on your toes and because

:11:06.:11:08.

the layaway Ruffin. the layaway

:11:08.:11:14.

We will talk about Luis Suarez shortly. Only one goal decided that,

:11:14.:11:18.

but how far did that go in writing the wrongs of the Etihad Stadium on

:11:18.:11:26.

Sunday? The performance might go some way to

:11:26.:11:29.

erasing the memory of Sunday, possibly not as far as he might have

:11:29.:11:33.

imagined. The result? Certainly it was important. If you are going to

:11:33.:11:37.

get beat by your local rivals, you don't want to get beat by your

:11:37.:11:44.

archrivals. You could see the relief and the way they enjoyed the win at

:11:44.:11:47.

the end showed there was probably a little bit more pressure on Man Utd

:11:47.:11:51.

than Liverpool. Does it say that anything that

:11:51.:11:57.

Manchester United went into that game making it changes while

:11:57.:12:01.

Liverpool only made to two welcome any of those could have stepped into

:12:01.:12:06.

the side for the next game. It was a bigger game than it

:12:06.:12:09.

probably should have been at this stage of the season, and the way the

:12:09.:12:12.

two approach that there was never going to be a lot in it and in

:12:12.:12:14.

two approach that there was never end it was decided by a mistake. --

:12:14.:12:22.

the way they approached it. After 157 days off, Luis Suarez was

:12:22.:12:26.

back in action. How did he said? There were moments when he looked

:12:26.:12:30.

very good. This is a fit Luis Suarez, he would have taken that I'd

:12:30.:12:37.

probably scored it. -- and probably scored it. It was a

:12:37.:12:40.

little bit like the game, some real good play. That should have been a

:12:40.:12:46.

goal, bike across there. It is wonderful to work the chance there.

:12:46.:12:51.

He has to go across goal here, albeit from another angle. This was

:12:51.:12:57.

brilliant, if this didn't take a touch of Jones it was probably in

:12:57.:12:59.

the top corner. That is a wonderful free kick, the

:13:00.:13:02.

slight deflection probably takes it over.

:13:02.:13:07.

It is incredible to think of the middle pressure mounting on David

:13:07.:13:10.

Moyes in the wake of happened in the weekend. How will he be feeling

:13:10.:13:13.

tonight and how will that have helped Mignolet -- how will that

:13:13.:13:20.

have helped him? We're not talking about pressure of

:13:20.:13:24.

losing his job, but proving himself. Beastly what happened over the

:13:24.:13:28.

summer with the transfers, he is following in big footsteps. He

:13:28.:13:32.

always said it was going to be a tough job. But it is almost a

:13:32.:13:36.

fact-finding mission, as well, for him. There is no one the screaming

:13:36.:13:40.

this is my first 11. No one is shouting at him saying, this team

:13:40.:13:45.

picks itself. He has to go through the process finding out who fits

:13:45.:13:48.

were best. Then let's work from there. Arsenal were looking to

:13:48.:13:53.

continue the fine start to the there. Arsenal were looking to

:13:53.:13:56.

competition this season. The gunners topped the league after four

:13:56.:13:59.

straight wins and have started well in Europe. They began the League Cup

:13:59.:14:03.

adventure in West Brom, watched by John Champion.

:14:03.:14:16.

That is a good free kick. And it just clipped the top of the

:14:16.:14:24.

crossbar. I don't even think the Polish goalkeeper made contact. The

:14:24.:14:41.

first genuine save of the night. Athletically put clear by Fabianski.

:14:42.:15:02.

Bendtner. Eisfeld! That was a rare chance for the German, and he sees

:15:02.:15:10.

that with old hands. -- seized that with both hands. Long. Free header.

:15:10.:15:26.

Equalising goal. And this player is stamping his name right across the

:15:26.:15:35.

cup. Berahino, from Burundi, via Birmingham. And what a ball that

:15:35.:15:55.

was. And Bendtner waited too long. He must have almost forgotten what

:15:55.:15:58.

it is like to score a goal for Arsenal. Morrison. The crossbar

:15:58.:16:06.

denies West Brom. At this late Arsenal. Morrison. The crossbar

:16:06.:16:12.

stage, that would probably have been the winner. Rosenberg. Still alive,

:16:12.:16:33.

but still no gold. -- goal. Fabianski. Facing Steven Reid. At

:16:33.:16:40.

the home end of the ground, on safety advice. Steven Reed, that was

:16:40.:16:51.

a very confidently taken penalty. Bendtner. Newly bearded and with a

:16:51.:17:08.

ponytail. Much derided. If his previous Arsenal career is any

:17:08.:17:12.

guide, you would not necessarily bet the house on him coming here. 2.5

:17:12.:17:19.

years since he scored for Arsenal. And he makes it one large one. --

:17:19.:17:33.

1-1. Well taken kicks. Very different but both successful.

:17:33.:17:50.

Rosenberg. Wasting no time. And straight down the middle. Gnabry. 18

:17:50.:18:02.

years old. Predicted to have a very big future with Arsenal. Stepping

:18:02.:18:08.

into the boots vacated by Theo Walcott. And that was too close! Can

:18:08.:18:27.

West Brom take the advantage? James Morrison, Scottish international.

:18:27.:18:35.

Remember, Arsenal went out of this competition on penalty kicks last

:18:35.:18:42.

season. That was at Radford. Rather a nervous retaken penalty. --

:18:42.:18:55.

nervously taken penalty. 3-2, at the moment. And it stays that way. The

:18:55.:19:08.

youngest layer on the pitch. This will level matters. He has to ignore

:19:08.:19:31.

the whistles. And he does! The stony face of Amalfitano. And he was not

:19:31.:19:44.

up to scratch. Responsibility is with the Spanish left back. If he

:19:44.:19:49.

scores, Arsenal go through. It is with the Spanish left back. If he

:19:49.:19:58.

their night. It was a long night, but it belonged to Arsenal,

:19:58.:20:02.

nonetheless. One each after extra time. The young guns held their

:20:02.:20:09.

nerve is and scored four out of their five penalties to send them

:20:09.:20:14.

through and extend that remarkable record in the league cup. 11 years

:20:14.:20:20.

since they went out as early as this.

:20:20.:20:31.

Waiting for the pass. What an early opportunity for Leeds United.

:20:31.:20:41.

McCormick was trying his luck, he just spotted the player off his

:20:41.:20:48.

line. And the visitors were just so close to getting their first goal of

:20:48.:20:59.

the night. He has done it. Towards Cisse! And that is the way to get

:20:59.:21:10.

off the mark. Beautiful cross from Sa Ameobi. He was not going to miss

:21:10.:21:28.

that. Newcastle go in front. But superb piece of individual skill

:21:28.:21:34.

from Gouffran. Ameobi was the provider, once again. He had a

:21:34.:21:38.

little bit of room as he turned away. That was an unstoppable shot.

:21:38.:21:46.

This will be their first ever League Cup factory over Newcastle. --

:21:46.:21:56.

victory. The Leeds captain was able to get to that rebound first. That

:21:56.:22:06.

should have been 3-0. Swansea began the defence at St Andrews. The

:22:06.:22:18.

French players were handed a chance to shine with ten changes from the

:22:18.:22:24.

weekend. Swansea were well on top in the second half of roaming handset

:22:24.:22:35.

about with more vigour. Tremmel kept things without any goal. No problems

:22:35.:22:52.

for Dan Burn, providing just reward. Swansea's grip on the trophy was

:22:52.:22:56.

slipping. Five minutes later, they knew that there would be no return

:22:56.:23:04.

to Wembley. Burke, is first pass was tailor-made. The reshuffled line-up

:23:04.:23:22.

from Swansea had no rhythm. Adeyemi got his first goal for Birmingham.

:23:22.:23:30.

Swansea said goodbye to the silverware with a whimper. Well

:23:30.:23:38.

beaten. This was the first appearance for Tranmere at this

:23:38.:23:49.

stage in 12 years. Stoke dominated. Arnautovic with the best early

:23:49.:23:53.

chances. Their exit last year was at the hands of Aston Villa. Stephen

:23:54.:23:58.

Ireland was Man of the Match then and he proved to be a nemesis again

:23:58.:24:04.

this time. Their best football for Rovers came in the last half-hour.

:24:04.:24:19.

The cross from Akpa Akpro fell. Jon Walters field to score against his

:24:19.:24:23.

hometown club. Any lingering hopes of some dramatic comeback

:24:23.:24:29.

disappeared in stoppage time. Peter Crouch netted his first goal of the

:24:29.:24:34.

season to put Stoke into round for for the fifth time in six years. For

:24:34.:24:41.

a big lad... ! Early signs are encouraging first

:24:41.:24:51.

look? No doubt about that. They want to be more progressive and there is

:24:51.:24:58.

that that he has to take into contention but they have been fine.

:24:58.:25:04.

Dramatic night at West Bromwich Albion, Arsenal squeezing through on

:25:04.:25:09.

penalties. It was all about holding errors in the end. It was a dominant

:25:09.:25:14.

youthful side. They made it hard for themselves? We know the way Arsenal

:25:14.:25:23.

approach this, they like to utilise younger lads with a little bit of

:25:23.:25:27.

experience as well. Was the pressure getting to West Brom? No one could

:25:27.:25:34.

criticise Arsene Wenger for picking the side if they had one any trophy

:25:34.:25:39.

recently because you can understand what he is trying to do. But they

:25:39.:25:44.

have Naughton people will always question any time they played

:25:44.:25:48.

outside, his reasons for doing that. There is more pressure. We have been

:25:48.:25:52.

in this situation before with regression from the youngsters but

:25:52.:25:58.

does that reap the ultimately wards? That filters right through to the

:25:58.:26:03.

top and we are asking, is it fine to bring youngsters on but keep the

:26:03.:26:07.

players of the top end of the scale as well. There is no good in

:26:07.:26:12.

bringing youngsters through to fill the gaps left by good players, the

:26:12.:26:16.

best players, every year. Those young players have to come into the

:26:16.:26:21.

team and you have to ally them to your best players. Well done to

:26:21.:26:27.

Birmingham city. One of the headlines at the weekend. And they

:26:27.:26:34.

have done that again tonight. We could see fleeting moments but we

:26:34.:26:40.

did see a Birmingham side that really went after Swansea and I

:26:40.:26:43.

watched Swansea at Crystal Palace and they were sensational. They made

:26:43.:26:48.

five changes and it did not quite work, they were never at their fluid

:26:48.:26:53.

best but Birmingham, on today's evidence, and a good result at the

:26:53.:26:58.

weekend, you get the feeling that things might be on the turn. Matt

:26:58.:27:02.

Green is an ex-Cardiff player, scoring against Swansea in the way

:27:02.:27:07.

that he did. That was a very good team gold? Fantastic effort, moved

:27:07.:27:12.

the ball around quickly and it was a lovely finish. More reminiscent of

:27:12.:27:18.

watching their opponents. Despite seeing their cup run ended by

:27:18.:27:21.

Bradford the semifinal stage last season, there were no signs of any

:27:21.:27:25.

hangover for Aston Villa as they registered a comfortable three - win

:27:25.:27:30.

over Rotherham in round two. Next up for Villa, the visit of Spurs, who

:27:30.:27:34.

had been beaten just once so far and clearly in the frame for winning

:27:34.:27:37.

some silverware this season. Villa made seven changes, with a starting

:27:37.:27:40.

place for Libor Kozak, who scored the winning goal at the weekend.

:27:40.:27:43.

While there were eight changes for Spurs - Kyle Walker, Jan Vertonghen

:27:43.:27:46.

and Paulinho the only survivors.Steve Wilson was at Villa

:27:46.:27:47.

Park. That was nicely done. Defoe. That

:27:47.:28:12.

was a good save from Steer. That was well ahead but it was straight at

:28:12.:28:23.

the younger keeper. Defoe. That was a nice flick. Back over.

:28:23.:28:45.

And absolutely lovely goal for Jermain Defoe. Beautifully

:28:45.:28:50.

constructed and deftly finished by Jermain Defoe. Beautifully

:28:50.:28:52.

constructed and deftly It only needed a touch. And with minimum of

:28:52.:28:59.

fuss, Jermain Defoe touches taught an in front in stoppage time at the

:28:59.:29:04.

end of a half. -- touches Tottenham in front. It was a beautiful move.

:29:04.:29:18.

Nicklas Helenius! He thought he fouled. But he is not getting

:29:18.:29:30.

anything, it is a goal kick. Well, what an introduction this was, 30

:29:30.:29:37.

odd seconds into the second half, it's Jan Vertonghen file Helenius?

:29:37.:29:53.

-- file. Vertonghen falls onto the striker, and pools his shorts down!

:29:53.:29:55.

That is extraordinary. The corner kick is whipped in and it

:29:55.:30:07.

has found its way in, and it is Paulinho, and Tottenham are two up.

:30:08.:30:14.

Paulinho, with a run to the near post, scores his first goal in

:30:14.:30:18.

Tottenham White already. Not exactly a thing of beauty, but they all

:30:19.:30:26.

count. It deflects off of Matthew Lowton onto poorly new and past Jed

:30:26.:30:29.

Steer. -- onto Paulinho. Nacer Chadli's shot is cracked in.

:30:29.:30:51.

Spurs are three up. First goal for Spurs from Nacer Chadli. Jed Steer

:30:51.:30:55.

will be disappeared as Michael bitterly disappointed with this one,

:30:56.:31:00.

beaten at his near post. Giving away really poorly, Defoe, over to Nacer

:31:00.:31:10.

Chadli, Jed Steer will be desperately disappointed to the

:31:10.:31:11.

defeated by this. -- to be defeated. Lewis Holtby is onto it and he can

:31:11.:31:30.

send Defoe away. He goes around Jed Steer and scored his sixth goal of

:31:30.:31:35.

the season in only his third start of the season. It is a message from

:31:35.:31:40.

Jermain Defoe to his manager, and Tottenham lead by four.

:31:40.:31:47.

Add the message is simple. Two words - pick me. He is lethal. It was

:31:47.:31:57.

really never in doubt for the moment -- from the moment Lewis Holtby got

:31:57.:32:01.

the pace on the past just right. It brings a broad smile to his

:32:02.:32:05.

manager's face. Nice options to have. In 20 odd years I don't think

:32:05.:32:10.

I have ever seen a striker have his shorts pulled down.

:32:10.:32:17.

I am pretty sure if that happens in the middle of the pitch you can get

:32:17.:32:18.

I am pretty sure if that happens in a free kick like that, but the

:32:18.:32:22.

referee has called it, the way he has seen it. I think it is a

:32:22.:32:28.

definite penalty. This was probably the most difficult step to play

:32:28.:32:36.

after Cardiff. If we were given good conditions to play with the right

:32:36.:32:42.

calendar, I don't see why we cannot throw in a challenge. At the moment,

:32:42.:32:45.

let's see what the draw gives us, and We have the fourth round draw

:32:45.:32:53.

coming your way in around 15 or 20 minutes. What about Jermain Defoe?

:32:53.:32:58.

You have to have some sympathy for him here. Six goals in three starts,

:32:58.:33:03.

he has become the fifth all-time highest goal-scorer at White Hart

:33:04.:33:06.

Lane. What more does he have to do to get a league start? I think he is

:33:06.:33:13.

doing what we know he can. I don't know whether what he is doing now in

:33:13.:33:16.

days will change the manager's mind. It is probably more the

:33:16.:33:19.

days will change the manager's of player he is than his

:33:19.:33:23.

performances that Andre Villas-Boas is looking at. There is quite a

:33:23.:33:26.

single-minded player in that respect, he is a fantastic

:33:26.:33:31.

goal-scorer. His progress in front of goal is almost second to none,

:33:31.:33:36.

but is that the type of all-round player Andre Villas-Boas is looking

:33:36.:33:41.

for? I don't know. There could be reasons, unbeknownst to us, for not

:33:41.:33:44.

including him in the squad more often, because with performances

:33:44.:33:48.

like that it is hard to see why. In some respects not too dissimilar to

:33:48.:33:58.

the Mata situation at Chelsea. Managers come in with their own

:33:58.:34:01.

style of play and sometimes players do not fit into that style that

:34:01.:34:04.

others looking at the situation may imagine. Tottenham have scored nine

:34:04.:34:10.

goals and conceded none in the last three. What about the key incident

:34:10.:34:14.

at 1-0 down for Villa, this happened. We are after the

:34:14.:34:19.

watershed, we are almost in danger of seeing a tackle of a different

:34:19.:34:27.

kind! It gets funnier the more you see

:34:27.:34:31.

it! It is a good job he had his slip on, wasn't it? He did well to get

:34:31.:34:38.

his shot off! That is a fowl and it is a penalty,

:34:38.:34:42.

he is stopping the freedom of the move to finish the shot. -- that is

:34:42.:34:48.

a foul. They might have got on level terms, but were Tottenham were the

:34:48.:34:53.

winners? They certainly were. Did you ever do that to a defender? Now,

:34:53.:34:59.

I don't think so. Jose Mourinho is celebrating an

:34:59.:35:06.

anniversary in English football. As for his second spell there it has

:35:06.:35:09.

not gone quite to plan so far. In his first outing to Swindon town.

:35:09.:35:14.

They are making good progress under their new manager, Mark Cooper.

:35:14.:35:22.

You can stand Luis, and it was a Luis special that dipped and

:35:22.:35:29.

swerved. A casual run-up, very deceptive.

:35:29.:35:44.

Fernando Torres in with a chance! He stuck out an arm and that was

:35:44.:35:50.

enough. The Swindon number one

:35:50.:36:01.

distinguishing himself. And here is Mata, and Torrez scores.

:36:01.:36:24.

Moments after being denied by Foderingham's excellent save, the

:36:24.:36:30.

two Spaniards combine again, Mata, who requires an eye-catching

:36:30.:36:33.

performance, and Fernando Torres, who does not produce enough of them.

:36:33.:36:39.

Foderingham, the Swindon keeper, again did his best but could only

:36:39.:36:41.

delay the inevitable. Threaded through for Ramirez and he

:36:41.:37:06.

makes it? In very accomplished style.

:37:06.:37:12.

Maybe Foderingham could have been more positive in dealing with the

:37:12.:37:19.

situation. It was a perfectly timed past bad macro pass by Torres.

:37:19.:37:26.

Foderingham could not close the Brazilian going quick enough.

:37:26.:37:28.

Chelsea sitting comfortably in Wiltshire.

:37:28.:37:44.

That is the first save of the night from Mark Schwarzer. Not his

:37:44.:37:50.

original plan, he was going to hit it with his right but had to go for

:37:50.:37:52.

his left. Darren England is the man with the

:37:52.:37:56.

bad news. Number 12 is off. Years the wrong side of the deepest

:37:56.:38:20.

of Chelsea's defenders. That was his chance to register a

:38:20.:38:47.

first Chelsea goal. Not for the first time, the

:38:47.:38:51.

goalkeeper Foderingham has distanced himself. A very tough game, as

:38:51.:38:57.

always when you play away against teams in lower divisions the short

:38:57.:39:01.

always when you play away against the passion, the intensity to play

:39:01.:39:04.

against other teams. I am really happy for us because it

:39:04.:39:05.

was a difficult game. Fernandinho. Lovely ball!

:39:05.:39:22.

Breakthrough for Manchester City at last. And that was a goal of real

:39:22.:39:28.

quality. And tidy, but he will not care.

:39:28.:39:45.

Stephen you're that age has his first Manchester City goal on his

:39:45.:39:51.

home debut and he has doubled Manchester City's advantage. Are we

:39:51.:39:59.

to witness and the IR to the special?

:39:59.:40:08.

-- Toure special? Another terrific finish from Toure and that settles

:40:08.:40:11.

it once and for all. James Miller never stops. What an

:40:11.:40:25.

enticing cross, second time. Two for Stephen Djokovic. Four for

:40:25.:40:28.

Manchester City. The cruise into the fourth round of

:40:28.:40:51.

the Capital one Cup. Jesus Navas with his first Manchester City goal

:40:51.:40:54.

to make it 5-0. Another substitute on

:40:54.:41:05.

scoresheet. I think the whole squad's mentality

:41:05.:41:10.

for trying to play in every championship exactly the same, we

:41:10.:41:16.

can change some players and some names, but I think that the

:41:16.:41:19.

philosophy of the players is exactly names, but I think that the

:41:19.:41:24.

the same. For us it was three games in five

:41:24.:41:27.

days, which is a huge asked. That would be a tough ask for any league

:41:27.:41:33.

club, we had to make changes of five players, who had their first games

:41:33.:41:38.

of the season tonight. They will certainly benefit from going to

:41:38.:41:40.

of the season tonight. They will all with some class players. --

:41:40.:41:43.

going toe to toe. Naismith played in and Everton have

:41:43.:41:58.

the initial incision! Made by a delicious pass and

:41:58.:42:02.

Naismith finished with power and precision. Phil Neal, Everton one.

:42:02.:42:07.

-- full hunt nil. Find running, it is as first for

:42:07.:42:45.

this campaign, and Fulham are Find running, it is as first for

:42:45.:42:52.

improved. Dimitar Berbatov has levelled the tie.

:42:52.:42:56.

And the tide turned right around by Phil and since half-time. Bent, who

:42:56.:43:14.

has just come on, has scored his second Fulham goal. The half-time

:43:14.:43:18.

talk and second-half changes paying dividends year.

:43:18.:43:22.

Coleman! The goalkeeper's legs to the rescue for Phil. -- for Fulham.

:43:22.:43:36.

The second half was better, played with more confidence, and of course

:43:36.:43:39.

if you look back, in hindsight you look at the scoresheet, you look at

:43:39.:43:43.

the players scoring goals on the scoresheet and it is probably good.

:43:43.:43:50.

At the start of the second half we invited pressure and got heavily

:43:50.:43:54.

punished, but apart from that it is only us to blame, we could not take

:43:54.:43:58.

the numerous opportunities that we had.

:43:58.:44:14.

The catchable responded with his Man of the Match display and a set herb

:44:14.:44:21.

pass. Peterborough have discovered that their opponents were in no mood

:44:21.:44:29.

for ridicule. MK Dons has been the only victory for Sunderland this

:44:29.:44:38.

season. Peterborough had lost Lee Tomlin from injury early on. With

:44:38.:44:46.

that threat removed, Sunderland were rarely in danger. Alan Johnson

:44:46.:44:55.

decked out Alan time. No drama, just a job well done. How long would you

:44:55.:45:12.

remain in charge? No idea! I am not sure, maybe until Sunday or longer.

:45:12.:45:15.

remain in charge? No idea! I am not Obviously, I am in contact with the

:45:15.:45:20.

board but I like doing one game at a time. I was like that as a player.

:45:20.:45:27.

Any first half, I have never seen us giving away the ball so much. That

:45:27.:45:29.

was the key to them being giving away the ball so much. That

:45:29.:45:35.

team in the first-half. Walking out at Wembley for the play-off

:45:35.:45:41.

finalists, some Allardyce. 99 games in charge at West Ham and 20 seconds

:45:41.:45:48.

into this one, the Hammers went one step or surgery going back. He was

:45:48.:45:55.

also involved at the start of the second goal. Matt Jarvis sliding

:45:55.:46:04.

into the finish. The game was less than eight minutes old. Cardiff cut

:46:04.:46:09.

the deficit before the break. Matt Taylor thought that he was fouled in

:46:09.:46:13.

the build-up but the finish was made to measure for the Bluebirds. And

:46:13.:46:21.

Cardiff, who have been out late in the first-half, worried different

:46:21.:46:30.

proposition on resumption. There begin to level after splendid work

:46:30.:46:36.

from Jordan rush. It was hard to call the winner. Two minutes from

:46:36.:46:41.

time, West Ham produced a delightful move down the right. The Upton Park

:46:41.:46:47.

faithful went home happy. You will at the County ground to see

:46:47.:47:05.

Swindon. It was all about application at the end of the

:47:05.:47:09.

night? Chelsea came out as comfortable winners. What did you

:47:09.:47:12.

make of some of those key performers, like Torres? In the

:47:12.:47:19.

context of the opposition, Swindon also played well and Chelsea were

:47:19.:47:27.

ultra-professional. Their workrate and attitude of every player was

:47:27.:47:33.

fantastic. I did everybody, this man was brilliant. He took three heavy

:47:33.:47:44.

tackles. He rolled his sleeves up and it was a willing runner, he took

:47:44.:47:52.

hold of the ball. Very good. It was Swindon, but I don't care, they were

:47:52.:47:57.

very good. He was the icing on the cake. And an emphatic win for

:47:57.:48:02.

Manchester City. Five goals against Wigan. Getting revenge from FA Cup

:48:02.:48:16.

Final. Toure, they have discovered another free kick specialist? It is

:48:16.:48:24.

the power and the pace. Not trying to bend that and get it up and over,

:48:24.:48:28.

he is actually heading the ball and threw the ball. The accuracy and the

:48:28.:48:35.

power, no chance for any keeper. Two or three players that can take this,

:48:35.:48:42.

and they need those games because the more games they can get, they

:48:42.:48:46.

can get those players involved. Sunderland started life with a win

:48:46.:48:53.

over Peterborough, which was a very tricky tie? It was not the way they

:48:53.:49:00.

wanted it, check given either way Peterborough have been playing. They

:49:00.:49:05.

have to be professional, do the job properly, and they did and it is a

:49:05.:49:16.

settling down process. Cardiff have struggled in the cup, they smashed

:49:16.:49:24.

six goals past dairy. -- Barry. On Tuesday night, though, Chris

:49:24.:49:27.

Hughton's men steeled themselves for a much tighter contest at

:49:27.:49:28.

Championship side Watford. Norwich were knocked out of the FA

:49:28.:49:37.

Cup last season by non-league opposition. Norwich put six past

:49:37.:49:49.

buried in the last round but have only scored one goal since. Wes

:49:49.:49:56.

Hoolahan 's good work was squandered by Bradley Johnson. That was made

:49:56.:50:00.

even more costly in the second half. And it was a lead Watford took

:50:00.:50:12.

into the final quarter of an hour. The catalyst for the recovery was

:50:12.:50:15.

Josh Murphy, only ten minutes into his debut and doing this. And his

:50:15.:50:25.

first goal in the Canaries was followed by Gary Hooper, the summer

:50:25.:50:31.

signing finally making a full debut at was postponed by injury. That

:50:31.:50:35.

readily taken header five minutes into stoppage time. With only five

:50:35.:50:41.

minutes of extra time, Hooper provided another illustration of the

:50:41.:50:46.

form that provided 80 goals in three years at Celtic. Norwich were

:50:46.:50:55.

leading. The Canaries through to round four for a second successive

:50:55.:50:59.

season. We left things late and young Josh Murphy managed to get us

:50:59.:51:04.

back into the game with a stunning strike and sometimes it takes

:51:04.:51:05.

something like that to turn the tide strike and sometimes it takes

:51:05.:51:11.

a little bit and put the real moment in our favour. There is not much I

:51:11.:51:16.

have to say to them, the way that they played, it was fantastic.

:51:17.:51:25.

have to say to them, the way that Having gone to Leeds last season,

:51:25.:51:30.

Southampton would have been taking nothing for granted against Bristol

:51:30.:51:33.

city. They took the lead on 15 minutes. Ramirez with it polished

:51:33.:51:45.

finish. The Saints line-up had to survive pressure from a Robins

:51:45.:51:56.

side. Superbly tipped over. It was not overly convincing from the

:51:56.:51:57.

Saints. But they wrapped up a place not overly convincing from the

:51:57.:52:01.

in the last 16 five minutes from time. A disappointing affair at the

:52:01.:52:19.

KC Stadium. But he fried it is best to bring the game to life but

:52:19.:52:23.

Huddersfield held out for just under one hour against their Premier

:52:23.:52:26.

League opponents. This pass from George Boyd broke things. Survival

:52:26.:52:33.

is the watchword for both clubs in their respective divisions, which

:52:33.:52:38.

might explain the combined 19 team changes. And the Huddersfield

:52:38.:52:42.

defence. Wasteful, but one was enough. Huddersfield have got some

:52:42.:52:48.

young players who they have bought into the team tonight and they have

:52:48.:52:52.

come out with a game plan and have got everybody back and they made

:52:52.:52:56.

life difficult for us but we were through. The best performances from

:52:56.:53:03.

Derby have come away from home this season but they will and Leicester

:53:03.:53:07.

for the first time in 11 years? Jake Buxton came close to giving them an

:53:07.:53:15.

early lead. They were rewarded for it dominant first-half performance

:53:15.:53:20.

with this goal from Chris Mervin. They held that lead into the last 12

:53:20.:53:25.

minutes. Leicester made eight changes and last scored a league cup

:53:25.:53:33.

tie nearly ten years ago. Another set piece led to this winner that

:53:33.:53:39.

gives Leicester a second win over Derby this season. With the number

:53:39.:53:46.

of changes, it was always about trying to get through to the next

:53:46.:53:49.

round and we managed to do that. I am sure that Derby will feel a

:53:49.:53:55.

little upset that they have not at least taken into extra time but we

:53:55.:54:00.

are very pleased to have completed the job in 90 minutes. We thought we

:54:00.:54:05.

didn't have to win the game, we got that goal in the first half and we

:54:05.:54:07.

didn't have to win the game, we got felt like we should have been more

:54:07.:54:11.

ahead. There was a penalty appeal that we did not get and we conceded

:54:11.:54:15.

needless free kicks in the last 15 minutes. Jimmy Paterson has made one

:54:15.:54:27.

league start since his move in the summer but his superb wing play

:54:27.:54:30.

paved the way for the opening goal of the night against Burnley. Matt

:54:30.:54:36.

Derbyshire poaching inside the six yard box. But the winners were

:54:36.:54:42.

pegged back in the final minutes of the first half. This was all about

:54:42.:54:54.

the strike. Forest should have been back and front midway through the

:54:54.:54:57.

second half. This week header was latched onto by Derbyshire and the

:54:57.:55:01.

former Black and strikers burned a wonderful opportunity. Inside two

:55:01.:55:07.

minutes, they were made to pay dearly for the miss with another

:55:07.:55:11.

quality, instinctive finish and Burnley 's form goes on and on. We

:55:11.:55:18.

competed extremely well and we ran them close and ultimately it is down

:55:18.:55:20.

to that two minutes period in the second half. We don't take that

:55:20.:55:28.

one-on-one and a schoolwork later. That was a good comeback from

:55:28.:55:29.

Burnley. We have been waxing lyrical about

:55:29.:55:38.

their start to the season. They look like a very tight-knit club and they

:55:38.:55:41.

have not had to make too many changes. Absolutely sensational and

:55:41.:55:44.

content with the loss of Charlie changes. Absolutely sensational and

:55:44.:55:47.

Austen, that has but everybody together. Yes, marvellous. Norwich

:55:47.:55:55.

in the league have made a slightly -- start but that unbelievable goal

:55:55.:56:04.

and Gary Hooper is well on his way? He is up and running? Two examples

:56:05.:56:12.

of how a goal-scorer plays. There must have been 12 players in the

:56:12.:56:14.

area and he is the one that gets his must have been 12 players in the

:56:14.:56:18.

head onto the ball. And there he goes through, he looks at the

:56:18.:56:21.

keeper, keeps calm, the keeper spreads himself. Sticks it through

:56:21.:56:23.

keeper, keeps calm, the keeper his legs. That East Midlands affair

:56:23.:56:31.

at the King Palace Stadium, the ball was still rising at the back of the

:56:31.:56:34.

net when Leicester have this comeback. They thought, maybe it's

:56:34.:56:41.

not going to happen but a couple of decent strikes and all of a sudden,

:56:41.:56:45.

the game changed. Turning it around in the last 30 minutes. You draw for

:56:45.:56:50.

the fourth round has been made and this is how the names came out of

:56:50.:56:55.

the hat. Five all Premier League ties. Top of the bill has to be

:56:55.:57:04.

Arsenal against Chelsea. There will be quite a feud clubs looking at

:57:04.:57:09.

that and thinking, we have a fair opportunity of getting through. But

:57:09.:57:13.

one or two very nice matchups and one or two that might feel they have

:57:13.:57:17.

a chance. Newcastle and Manchester City? Interesting to see how they

:57:17.:57:25.

both get on. I think Man City are one of those clubs that will enjoy

:57:25.:57:29.

having an offer lot of games and using their squad players and

:57:29.:57:37.

rotating. It didn't really work at Stoke but last night it was really

:57:37.:57:49.
