00:00:30Evening, four games on the way on tonight's Match of the Day 2.

00:00:44Alan Shearer and Ashley Williams are with us to Portman Road,

00:00:48then third, bottom, Ipswich, taking on second-placed Arsenal.

00:00:51Defeat for the visitors will give Liverpool the chance

00:00:54to seal the title later in the day.

00:00:56Commentary from Martin Fisher.

00:01:00Only Mavs delaying what seems an inevitable return to the Championship for Ipswich.

00:01:06Arsenal's main attention has now switched from the Premier League to the Champions League.

00:01:10So after the midweek Magic in Madrid,

00:01:13how will they take to sleepy Suffolk on a Sunday afternoon?

00:01:17After their creditable draw at Chelsea, just the one alteration for Ipswich,

00:01:22Jacob Greaves replaces Cameron Burgess in central defence.

00:01:26It's his first start in five weeks.

00:01:28So Liam De Lappe is again amongst the subs, and George Hurst begins up top.

00:01:34Three changes from the Bernabeu for Arsenal, far fewer than many expected.

00:01:38White, Sinchenko and Trossard come in.

00:01:41Timber, Louis Skelly and Partey are benched.

00:01:44It's Bakayo Saka's first Premier League start since Christmas.

00:01:49Ipswich have never beaten Arsenal in the Premier League, losing nine of 11 meetings.

00:02:01Sinchenko.

00:02:03Saka far side.

00:02:04Davies backpedalling, Udegaard with the lay-off, Saka's cross, Trossard!

00:02:12Tremendous challenge by Twanzebi.

00:02:16Perhaps Trossard could have taken it first time,

00:02:19enabled Twanzebi just to get across and make a very important block.

00:02:24Mikhail Arteta in the build-up saying that his team need to just step it up in the Premier League and start winning games again.

00:02:30Drop points in four of their last seven domestically.

00:02:35Sinchenko carefully into the path of Udegaard.

00:02:39Saka breaking to his right, Trossard in the middle.

00:02:42Saka's cut back.

00:02:43It will reach Trossard, and he's just about done enough with his shot to find the bottom corner.

00:02:50Arsenal in front.

00:02:51Saka, Udegaard involved, but it's the Belgian who puts it away.

00:02:56A strange kind of finish, he was almost falling over as he made contact.

00:03:01Udegaard with the break.

00:03:03Saka pulled away.

00:03:06Udegaard's touched there into the path of Trossard,

00:03:08and under pressure from Morsi,

00:03:10he kind of lost his footing, but still was able to get a shot away

00:03:15through the legs of Dara O'Shea.

00:03:19Nipswich nil, Arsenal 1 with 14 gone.

00:03:26In by Rice.

00:03:29And turned behind by O'Shea.

00:03:32Goals have been a bit of a problem for Arsenal recently in the Premier League,

00:03:35just six in their previous seven matches.

00:03:39But they've started so well today.

00:03:43Oof, there's a great chance there.

00:03:45Marino with a free header back post.

00:03:48That really should have been the second of the afternoon.

00:03:51Just got away from Twanzebi so, so easily,

00:03:53and from there he has to score, surely.

00:03:55Saliba.

00:04:03Great work from Trossard.

00:04:06He's been left in a heap by Davies' challenger, Saka carries it.

00:04:10Mourinho's touched, and it's in by Martinelli.

00:04:13It's 2-0.

00:04:15Terrific goal from Arsenal.

00:04:16Leandro Trossard, who started it all, injured in the process.

00:04:23But a good decision by referee Chris Kavanagh to allow play to continue,

00:04:29if indeed he even spotted the incident.

00:04:31Saka again heavily involved.

00:04:33Bursts away from Greaves.

00:04:34Little flick there from Marino.

00:04:36Rolled it perfectly into the path of Martinelli.

00:04:39And Arsenal are sweeping Ipswich to one side.

00:04:42Ipswich nil, Arsenal two.

00:04:46Greaves stops Udegaard, but Rice collects.

00:04:49White's on for Saka.

00:04:51And this time it's Udegaard who's left on the floor.

00:04:54And now Saka, caught late by Davies.

00:04:58Arsenal have two players out of action at the moment.

00:05:02Who does the Arsenal physio go and treat?

00:05:05I think there's more concern over Vakayo Saka,

00:05:07who's only just come back from that hamstring problem, of course.

00:05:12Oh, and it's a red card.

00:05:16Well, Chris Kavanagh took his time to make this decision,

00:05:18but Davies has made a really nasty challenge

00:05:21on the back of the right ankle there.

00:05:24That is painful.

00:05:26Leif Davies is dismissed.

00:05:28And an already challenging afternoon for Ipswich Town

00:05:31has got a whole lot more difficult.

00:05:34Ipswich facing their third relegation

00:05:36from the Premier League,

00:05:382002 and 1995.

00:05:4027 points is their lowest previous tally.

00:05:43They're on 21 at the moment.

00:05:47Marino stabbing it through, Saka is in.

00:05:51Somehow he's put it wide.

00:05:54Still manages to smile.

00:05:56I think everybody in the stadium, including Saka,

00:05:59thought this was going to hit the back of the net.

00:06:01Not even close, actually, looking at the replay from behind the goal.

00:06:12Oh, lovely play by Udegaard.

00:06:15Trossard queuing up in the middle again, Saka!

00:06:19Even wider this time.

00:06:21Saka just put the brakes on,

00:06:23anticipated the cutback from Trossard,

00:06:25and just helped it on his way,

00:06:26but well wide of goal.

00:06:30The most famous game, surely,

00:06:31between these two sides,

00:06:32the 1978 FA Cup final.

00:06:34That man there, Roger Osborne,

00:06:35with the late winner

00:06:37for Bobby Robson's men.

00:06:39What a memory for him

00:06:40and Ipswich Town fans of a certain age.

00:06:42Morsi.

00:06:45Drops the shoulder and steps inside Rice,

00:06:47and it's on towards Hurst.

00:06:50Saliba after him.

00:06:52Only Taylor up in support at the moment,

00:06:54but Hurst has done well

00:06:55and gets the shot away too,

00:06:56and it's just wide.

00:06:58Well, how the locals enjoyed this.

00:07:01Excellent work by George Hurst.

00:07:03Just checks inside Saliba,

00:07:05and he's not far away from finding the bottom corner.

00:07:09Well, I hope this isn't too much of a concern

00:07:11for Bakayo Saka and Arsenal supporters.

00:07:14The foot that was heavily caught by Leif Davis

00:07:17in that first half,

00:07:19being heavily strapped with plenty of ice there.

00:07:24Raya feeding Rice.

00:07:28Urdegaard.

00:07:31In the way could just,

00:07:33but his clearance stopped by Luis Skelly.

00:07:35Rice, deflection off to Anzebe,

00:07:37he took it behind.

00:07:38Rice was looking for Martinelli in the middle.

00:07:41Not the first important block

00:07:42that Axel Tuanzebe has produced today.

00:07:45Well, I think we all know that Arsenal have got the points,

00:07:47they've had the points in the bag

00:07:48since the second goal, really.

00:07:51Certainly since Davis was sent off,

00:07:53but I think they'll be a little bit disappointed

00:07:55that this game finishes just at 2-0.

00:07:58Given the circumstances,

00:07:59Rice has found Trossard,

00:08:01Trossard has got the shot away,

00:08:02and it won't finish 2-0.

00:08:04Because Trossard has got his second

00:08:06and Arsenal's third.

00:08:08To say it has been on the cards

00:08:10is perhaps the most obvious statements

00:08:13of the day,

00:08:15perhaps of the season.

00:08:17But Ipswich just switched off momentarily here.

00:08:20Look at Trossard,

00:08:21he'd found space,

00:08:21he's onside,

00:08:22able to turn, spin,

00:08:25and crack it under the body of Parma

00:08:27for number three.

00:08:28Nine goals this season now

00:08:30for the Belgian.

00:08:34Vanieri.

00:08:38Odegaard for White.

00:08:43Odegaard against the post.

00:08:45Parma was beaten.

00:08:46Ipswich get a bit fortunate.

00:08:48Frustration for the Norwegian,

00:08:51who hasn't scored in the Premier League

00:08:52since early February.

00:08:55So close to making it for Arsenal.

00:09:00Back with the Arsenal captain.

00:09:04Oh, what an early effort,

00:09:06and it was on target.

00:09:07First touch in Premier League football

00:09:09for Nathan Butler-Oyedegi,

00:09:12and it very nearly brought him a goal.

00:09:13Palmer got up quickly

00:09:16to tip it over the bar.

00:09:17That would have been a golden moment.

00:09:21Corner taken quickly.

00:09:23Sterling.

00:09:25Zinchenko.

00:09:27Vanieri.

00:09:29And the deflection takes it in.

00:09:33Ethan Vanieri will claim it.

00:09:36It's a double deflection

00:09:38off O'Shea,

00:09:39and then off Burgess too.

00:09:41But the original shot was on target,

00:09:42so I think it will go down

00:09:44as a fourth Premier League goal

00:09:46for 18-year-old Ethan Vanieri.

00:09:49Arsenal still putting a bit of pressure

00:09:51on Liverpool,

00:09:52still gunning for second spot.

00:09:54Ipswich,

00:09:55while their Premier League days

00:09:56are definitely numbered now.

00:09:58Ipswich Town 0,

00:10:00Arsenal 4.

00:10:01Very happy.

00:10:02I think it's been a really positive week

00:10:04for us today.

00:10:05I think especially the first 35 minutes,

00:10:0711 against 11,

00:10:09were exceptional.

00:10:10Scored two goals,

00:10:10could have scored many more,

00:10:12and then obviously the sending off

00:10:13changed the dynamic of the game.

00:10:15Macayo was involved

00:10:16in the first two goals

00:10:17that you scored,

00:10:17but then we saw him come off

00:10:18and he got ice on his leg.

00:10:20Is that anything

00:10:20that you're worried about?

00:10:22Yeah, he was sore

00:10:22because of the tackle,

00:10:23but it doesn't look anything serious.

00:10:26Mathematically,

00:10:26still not relegated,

00:10:28but all but relegated.

00:10:29How do you view

00:10:30the whole situation there now?

00:10:32No, look,

00:10:32in terms of the table,

00:10:34we know for the last few weeks

00:10:35that, you know,

00:10:36since the Wolves game,

00:10:37really,

00:10:37that the mountain

00:10:38was going to be too high.

00:10:39And that's the situation.

00:10:41The mountain's been too high

00:10:42in terms of, you know,

00:10:43the climb for the club

00:10:44has been incredibly quick.

00:10:45We've come from, you know,

00:10:46the middle of League One

00:10:47to the Premier League

00:10:49in a very short space of time.

00:10:50It's been an incredible achievement,

00:10:52but, you know,

00:10:52things aren't always

00:10:53a linear upward trajectory.

00:10:55Sometimes you have to

00:10:55take a step back

00:10:56and, you know,

00:10:57we'll do that

00:10:58in the best way possible

00:10:58and make sure

00:10:59that we keep, you know,

00:11:00pushing the club forward.

00:11:01You've got another game

00:11:01coming up very quickly

00:11:03on Wednesday

00:11:03against Crystal Palace.

00:11:04How important is it

00:11:05that you keep the momentum going,

00:11:07you keep winning

00:11:07ahead of that huge game

00:11:08against PSG?

00:11:09Yeah, same.

00:11:10We need to, yeah,

00:11:11get the same rhythm

00:11:12from the start

00:11:13in that game as well

00:11:14and try to win

00:11:15that game as well

00:11:16and, yeah,

00:11:17get all the confidence

00:11:18for the week after.

00:11:21We'll come on to that

00:11:22Champions League tie,

00:11:23surely,

00:11:24but that was as routine

00:11:25a victory

00:11:26as you could wish to see,

00:11:27wasn't it?

00:11:28It was routine,

00:11:29without a doubt,

00:11:29but I thought Arsenal

00:11:30were exceptional,

00:11:31particularly in the first half.

00:11:34More so down there,

00:11:35right-hand side,

00:11:36Ipswich left-hand side.

00:11:37They really struggled.

00:11:38They obviously identified

00:11:39a weakness in Ipswich

00:11:41and they just couldn't cope.

00:11:44I mean,

00:11:44it's difficult enough

00:11:45when you're up against

00:11:46one of the world's best

00:11:47in this guy,

00:11:48Saka.

00:11:48You need all the help

00:11:49you can get

00:11:49and that happened

00:11:51too many times.

00:11:52Trossard should hit

00:11:53that first time.

00:11:54He doesn't need

00:11:55the touch there,

00:11:56but just look at

00:11:57the space there.

00:11:58You're giving top,

00:12:00top players

00:12:01that amount of space

00:12:02and that amount of time

00:12:03to take touches

00:12:04and run at you

00:12:05into the final third

00:12:06like it happened there.

00:12:07They got the warning

00:12:08early on

00:12:09and then they got

00:12:10punished there

00:12:11and he missed

00:12:12the first one

00:12:12and he wasn't going to

00:12:13miss the second one

00:12:14in Trossard.

00:12:16Same thing again.

00:12:17If Clark just goes

00:12:18to his left

00:12:18and cuts that pass off,

00:12:20it might make it

00:12:21a little bit more difficult,

00:12:22but they just went

00:12:23after them.

00:12:24So they moved the ball

00:12:25at pace from right,

00:12:26this time down

00:12:27to the left-hand side

00:12:28and it really was a matter

00:12:30of how many

00:12:30they were going to get.

00:12:31Similar thing again.

00:12:32Look,

00:12:32if Clark just drops

00:12:3410 yards

00:12:35and stops that pass,

00:12:36it's all right

00:12:37if it goes right

00:12:38into Ben White there.

00:12:39That's not a problem,

00:12:40but because he doesn't,

00:12:42then it's a simple

00:12:43pass over the top

00:12:44and the same thing again

00:12:45as I said happened

00:12:46so many times

00:12:48that they're in

00:12:49and the right-hand side

00:12:49they got punished once

00:12:51and they got punished again

00:12:52and as I said,

00:12:53Arsenal thought

00:12:54they were fantastic,

00:12:55but they certainly thought

00:12:56going down that right-hand side

00:12:58as you can see,

00:12:59they would get more joy

00:13:00in doing that

00:13:01and that's exactly

00:13:02what happened.

00:13:02Defensibly,

00:13:03is it easy to cut off

00:13:04one wing of the pitch?

00:13:07Yeah,

00:13:07it would be,

00:13:08yeah,

00:13:08and ideally

00:13:09you'd want your defenders

00:13:10to be communicating

00:13:11with the players

00:13:12higher at the pitch

00:13:12because as a defender

00:13:14if I do that

00:13:14it makes my job easier

00:13:16like Alan's just showed there.

00:13:17If your midfielders

00:13:18are more in a flat line

00:13:20and they're having to

00:13:20play it around you

00:13:21and it gives you more time

00:13:22to get back in shape

00:13:23but I think Ipswich have done,

00:13:24have defended like that

00:13:25all season

00:13:26it's been one of their

00:13:26massive problems.

00:13:27If you sort of

00:13:28throw it forward

00:13:29for Arsenal

00:13:30and the game that they,

00:13:32the Champions League

00:13:34semi-finals

00:13:34with Paris Saint-Germain,

00:13:36look,

00:13:36they obviously missed

00:13:37Saka for a big part

00:13:38of the season

00:13:38and they didn't have Martinelli

00:13:39as well for part

00:13:40of that season

00:13:40but by having

00:13:41those wingers back

00:13:43it allows them

00:13:44a little bit more freedom

00:13:45with Trossard,

00:13:46doesn't it?

00:13:47Yeah,

00:13:47and I mean

00:13:48what we saw

00:13:50with the team today

00:13:51might be the,

00:13:52looks as if I think

00:13:53might be the team

00:13:54that go in

00:13:54in the Champions League

00:13:55because Partey is injured

00:13:56so they might have

00:13:57Moreno back into the midfield

00:13:59and Trossard

00:13:59up the middle

00:14:01but there's no doubt about it

00:14:02I mean having Saka

00:14:03back on that right-hand side

00:14:04and the form that he's in

00:14:05and not playing

00:14:08so much football

00:14:09but coming back

00:14:10straight into it

00:14:11and doing as well

00:14:12as he has been doing

00:14:13is just incredible.

00:14:14Because they'll need

00:14:14that balance,

00:14:15won't they,

00:14:16for that game

00:14:17that gives them

00:14:18both energy and solidity

00:14:19against that Paris Saint-Germain

00:14:20midfield.

00:14:21Yeah,

00:14:21and I think Partey

00:14:22will obviously be

00:14:23a big miss for them

00:14:24so I think the manager

00:14:25has looked at it today

00:14:26and gone with some,

00:14:28he probably feels

00:14:29comfortable playing

00:14:29against Dipswich

00:14:30with all due respect

00:14:31and thinks I can try

00:14:32something out

00:14:32and it looked good as well

00:14:33so I think that would

00:14:35probably be their

00:14:35starting XI as well

00:14:36for the Paris Saint-Germain game.

00:14:37And I'm guessing

00:14:38he'll have seen

00:14:40what happened to Saka

00:14:42today with the challenge

00:14:43from Leif Davies

00:14:44which we'll show in a minute

00:14:45but before we show it

00:14:46he's got to balance

00:14:47whether he loses

00:14:48a player to injury

00:14:49or whether he keeps

00:14:50his momentum going

00:14:51because they'll want

00:14:52to keep that momentum going.

00:14:53Yeah, I think

00:14:53Lewis Skelly might come

00:14:54into that left-back position

00:14:57but they have certainly

00:14:59got options

00:14:59but I was actually

00:15:01slightly surprised

00:15:02they went in

00:15:02as strong as they did today

00:15:04but you've got to have that

00:15:06find that happy medium

00:15:07about not playing too much

00:15:08but putting them in

00:15:09and they've also got

00:15:10a game or two

00:15:11before that as well

00:15:12so I would imagine

00:15:13that there'll be rotation

00:15:14in the next game or two.

00:15:15He was probably

00:15:16quite a lucky Saka

00:15:17wasn't he?

00:15:18That he was just sore

00:15:19rather than something

00:15:20a bit more serious.

00:15:21It doesn't look great.

00:15:22No, this is

00:15:23a really bad tackle

00:15:25this is a red card

00:15:26no doubt at all

00:15:27and Leif Davies

00:15:28who was getting

00:15:29the run around

00:15:29as it was

00:15:30as we showed earlier

00:15:31I don't know

00:15:32if it's frustration

00:15:33on his part

00:15:33but he's got no

00:15:34chance of winning

00:15:35that ball

00:15:36if he's trying

00:15:36to win that ball

00:15:37he'll go with his toes

00:15:38first and try and poke it

00:15:39he's nowhere near it

00:15:40he knows straight away

00:15:41and Saka's lucky really

00:15:43and Arsenal

00:15:44and Arteta are lucky

00:15:45that that's not

00:15:46a really bad injury

00:15:47because it could be

00:15:48down the Achilles

00:15:49I'm not sure

00:15:50what Leif Davies

00:15:51was thinking

00:15:51I said maybe he's frustrated

00:15:52he knows that he's

00:15:53done wrong there

00:15:54because it's alright

00:15:55saying sorry now

00:15:56but you've just left

00:15:56your team at 2-0

00:15:58down with 10 men.

00:15:59Do you agree with

00:16:00do you agree

00:16:02with Kieran McKenna

00:16:03then that sometimes

00:16:04you might need

00:16:04to go one step back

00:16:06to just take stock

00:16:07before you progress again

00:16:08after back-to-back promotion?

00:16:09Possibly

00:16:10they have gone up twice

00:16:11which is difficult

00:16:12and you're trying

00:16:12to play catch-up

00:16:13they've spent a lot of money

00:16:14but what bothers me

00:16:15about this Ipswich team

00:16:16Kieran McKenna

00:16:17is his tactics

00:16:18he seems to be

00:16:19very open every game

00:16:20very easy to play against

00:16:22and I don't think

00:16:24that

00:16:24yes the Championship

00:16:26is a difficult league

00:16:28but maybe he needed

00:16:29to adjust

00:16:30at some point

00:16:30there's some sort

00:16:32of it seems

00:16:32stubbornness

00:16:33that he's going

00:16:33to play his way

00:16:34every game

00:16:34and it clearly

00:16:35isn't working out

00:16:36very well for him

00:16:37Right

00:16:38Liverpool couldn't

00:16:39win the title

00:16:40then because

00:16:40of that Arsenal win

00:16:41but Leicester

00:16:42would be relegated

00:16:43if they failed

00:16:44to win

00:16:45Steve Wilson

00:16:45was at the

00:16:46Kim Power Stadium

00:16:46it feels like

00:16:50Liverpool have been

00:16:51on the brink

00:16:51for some weeks

00:16:52now

00:16:53same goes for

00:16:54Leicester really

00:16:55but for them

00:16:56it's a precipice

00:16:57not a pedestal

00:16:58Leicester's last goal

00:17:00at the King Power

00:17:01came on December

00:17:02the 8th

00:17:03a 9th consecutive

00:17:04home blank

00:17:05and defeat

00:17:06would be an all-time

00:17:07top flight record

00:17:08not the kind

00:17:09you'd want

00:17:10Ricciardo Pereira

00:17:11and Vout Fass

00:17:12along with

00:17:12Bobby de Cordova

00:17:13Reid come in

00:17:14for Justin

00:17:15Ocoli

00:17:16and McAteer

00:17:17Liverpool make

00:17:18two changes

00:17:19Jones and Jota

00:17:20dropping to the bench

00:17:21in come

00:17:22Cody Gakpo

00:17:23and Dominic

00:17:23Soberslay

00:17:24on a slot side

00:17:26have actually

00:17:26only won two

00:17:27of their last

00:17:28seven games

00:17:29away from Anfield

00:17:30Oh squeaked

00:17:40through by

00:17:41Luis Diaz

00:17:41Salah for Liverpool

00:17:42and it's hit

00:17:43both posts

00:17:44well Leicester

00:17:47say he must have

00:17:47been offside

00:17:48but the flag

00:17:49has not gone up

00:17:50had it gone in

00:17:53there would have

00:17:54been a check

00:17:54but it may well

00:17:56be that

00:17:56Ndidi was level

00:17:57with Salah

00:17:58who manages

00:18:00to hit

00:18:00both posts

00:18:01well a third

00:18:05minute let off

00:18:06for Leicester

00:18:06well there are

00:18:22he's got away

00:18:22from Conor Bradley

00:18:23who needs to be

00:18:24careful

00:18:24here's Ndidi

00:18:25getting through

00:18:26one challenge

00:18:26hits the post

00:18:27Ndidi again

00:18:29Dekord over

00:18:33Reid

00:18:33that's a bit

00:18:34short

00:18:34Simikas for

00:18:35Luis Diaz

00:18:36both sides

00:18:38have hit the

00:18:38woodwork

00:18:38in the first

00:18:3910 minutes

00:18:39Luis Diaz

00:18:41swiveling nicely

00:18:42finding Gakko

00:18:43Sopaslai arriving

00:18:47Salah's already

00:18:47there

00:18:48it's Salah

00:18:50save by

00:18:50Hermanson

00:18:51well within

00:18:53the space

00:18:54of 30 seconds

00:18:54or so

00:18:55both goals

00:19:02got through

00:19:04the McAllister

00:19:04challenge

00:19:05and then

00:19:05was unlucky

00:19:06good save

00:19:10will surely

00:19:14become the

00:19:14first Dutchman

00:19:15ever to

00:19:16win the

00:19:17Premier League

00:19:17title as a

00:19:18coach

00:19:19which is not

00:19:20bad when you

00:19:21consider that

00:19:21the Netherlands

00:19:23produces more

00:19:24than its fair share

00:19:25of great coaches

00:19:26many of whom

00:19:27have worked in

00:19:28the Premier League

00:19:28Gravenberg

00:19:33Gakpo

00:19:43curling

00:19:44oh that was

00:19:45on target

00:19:45well Hermanson

00:19:47had to deal

00:19:48with it in the

00:19:48end from Cody

00:19:49Gakpo

00:19:49I suspect

00:19:51that's not an

00:19:52attempt to score

00:19:53but it was on

00:19:54target as it

00:19:54started curling

00:19:55and floating

00:19:56and Konate

00:19:58and Ndidi

00:19:59was there

00:20:00that's a good

00:20:01clearance by Ndidi

00:20:02good contact

00:20:30sweetly more

00:20:31often than not

00:20:32Hermanson

00:20:33kept it out

00:20:34but didn't

00:20:34keep it out

00:20:35of the danger

00:20:35area

00:20:36he's grateful

00:20:37for Cody

00:27:53different

00:27:54ways

00:27:54today

00:27:54it was

00:27:55it was

00:27:56yeah

00:27:56and they

00:27:56wasn't

00:27:56convincing

00:27:57by any

00:27:57means

00:27:58but this

00:27:58is why

00:27:58they are

00:28:03the full

00:28:04backs

00:28:04they set

00:28:06the tempo

00:28:06early

00:28:07this is

00:28:08really early

00:28:08in the

00:28:09game

00:28:09a really

00:28:10clever

00:28:10intricate

00:28:10move

00:28:11normally

00:28:12Salah would

00:28:12have buried

00:28:13that

00:28:13but he

00:28:13couldn't

00:28:13believe

00:28:14he's

00:28:14hit

00:28:14both

00:28:14the

00:28:15posts

00:28:15and

00:28:17highlighted

00:28:17Simikas

00:28:18here

00:28:18you see

00:28:18an underlapping

00:28:20run

00:28:20which is

00:28:21very difficult

00:28:21to defend

00:28:22and he's

00:28:23getting

00:28:23nearly to

00:28:24the byline

00:28:25and another

00:28:25day

00:28:25Salah would

00:28:26have put

00:28:26that in

00:28:26here when

00:28:28we stop

00:28:28it

00:28:28that's

00:28:29both of

00:28:29Liverpool's

00:28:30fullbacks

00:28:30so they're

00:28:31playing very

00:28:31brave

00:28:31they're

00:28:32very high

00:28:33up the

00:28:33pitch

00:28:33normally

00:28:33see one

00:28:34and not

00:28:35the other

00:28:35one

00:28:35go

00:28:35and it's

00:28:35actually

00:28:36Simikas

00:28:36that gets

00:28:36a chance

00:28:37good save

00:28:38but you

00:28:39can see

00:28:40what they

00:28:40were trying

00:28:40to do

00:28:41this is

00:28:42Bradley

00:28:42on the

00:28:43ball

00:28:43clever

00:28:44player

00:28:44again

00:28:45driving

00:28:46into the

00:28:46box

00:28:46at the

00:28:47Leicester

00:28:47defence

00:28:47and the

00:28:48two

00:28:48furthest

00:28:49forward

00:28:50players

00:28:50for Liverpool

00:28:51are both

00:28:51fullbacks

00:28:52so you can

00:28:53see the

00:28:53trend

00:28:54with how

00:28:55they were

00:28:55playing

00:28:55in the

00:28:55game

00:28:56a little

00:28:56bit of

00:28:57skill

00:28:57from

00:28:57Salah

00:28:57they just

00:28:58didn't

00:28:58have the

00:28:58quality

00:28:59until

00:28:59this man

00:29:00entered

00:29:01the pitch

00:29:01and you

00:29:02kind of

00:29:02just got

00:29:03a feel

00:29:03for it

00:29:03straight away

00:29:04great ball

00:29:04from Simikas

00:29:05who had put

00:29:05in good

00:29:05delivery

00:29:07it alive

00:29:08there's a

00:29:08post

00:29:08crossbar

00:29:09it's half

00:29:10cleared

00:29:10but

00:29:11Trent Alexander

00:29:12Arnold is

00:29:12already

00:29:13anticipating

00:29:13where the

00:29:14ball is

00:29:14going to

00:29:14land

00:29:15and then

00:29:15this is

00:29:16some

00:29:16finish

00:29:16that's

00:29:17his first

00:29:17goal

00:29:18with his

00:29:19left foot

00:29:19he's hit

00:29:21that better

00:29:22than some

00:29:22left foot

00:29:22it's an

00:29:24unbelievable

00:29:25finish

00:29:25and then

00:29:26the celebration

00:29:27we can all

00:29:28read into

00:29:28it but

00:29:29it means

00:29:29a lot

00:29:30to him

00:29:30you can

00:29:31say that

00:29:31fair play

00:29:32great strike

00:29:33from him

00:29:33it does

00:29:34mean a lot

00:29:35to him

00:29:35and we

00:29:37interpret

00:29:37various messages

00:29:39in his

00:29:39celebration

00:29:40didn't we

00:29:40and look

00:29:41don't want to

00:29:42get ahead of

00:29:42ourselves

00:29:43because they

00:29:43want to enjoy

00:29:44the moment

00:29:44they're in

00:29:45but what they

00:29:45do in

00:29:46fullback

00:29:46positions

00:29:47going forward

00:29:48next season

00:29:48will be really

00:29:49interesting

00:29:49yeah they've

00:29:50yeah they've got

00:29:50they've got a

00:29:51decision to

00:29:51make on

00:29:52conor

00:29:52bradley

00:29:53whether he's

00:29:53going to be

00:29:53the number

00:29:54one right

00:29:54back or

00:29:55whether they

00:29:55feel as if

00:29:56it may come

00:29:57too early to

00:29:57rely on him

00:29:58straight away

00:29:59or they can

00:29:59invest in

00:30:00whatever

00:30:00there's no doubt

00:30:01he's got the

00:30:02talent there

00:30:03and if

00:30:03Trent is

00:30:03going to

00:30:04choose to

00:30:04go away

00:30:05then good

00:30:17did create

00:30:17chances

00:30:18didn't play

00:30:18that well

00:30:19but they did

00:30:19create enough

00:30:20chances to

00:30:21score four or

00:30:21five goals

00:30:22on another

00:30:22day they

00:30:22would have

00:30:23could you

00:30:23understand why

00:30:24the Leicester

00:30:25goal was

00:30:25disallowed

00:30:27yeah I think

00:30:28it's a foul

00:30:29I think that

00:30:29it's just that

00:30:31little look from

00:30:32Daka there

00:30:33where Alisson

00:30:33is

00:30:34if he didn't

00:30:35look at him

00:30:36just before

00:30:37the contact

00:30:38was made

00:30:38maybe there's

00:30:39an argument

00:30:40but he knows

00:30:40exactly what

00:30:41he's doing

00:30:41yes it is

00:30:43soft but

00:30:43it's a foul

00:30:44I think we

00:30:45can

00:30:45we all agree

00:30:46now that it's

00:30:47a foul

00:30:47you're not

00:30:47going to get

00:30:48away with that

00:30:48on the goalkeeper

00:30:49maybe 30 or

00:30:5035 years ago

00:30:51you would have

00:30:51but not in

00:30:52today's game

00:30:52which means

00:30:53Leicester still

00:30:54haven't scored

00:30:55at home

00:30:56you've got to

00:30:56go back to

00:30:57December

00:30:58for the last

00:30:59time they

00:31:00scored at home

00:31:01they've become

00:31:02the first team

00:31:02in top flight

00:31:03history to go

00:31:04nine consecutive

00:31:05home league

00:31:05games without

00:31:07scoring

00:31:07it's a bigger

00:31:09picture though

00:31:09here isn't it

00:31:10Alan

00:31:10you know the

00:31:11fans are very

00:31:12unhappy with the

00:31:13way the club

00:31:13is being run

00:31:15whether that's

00:31:16at boardroom

00:31:16level

00:31:16whether that's

00:31:17at the

00:31:17director of

00:31:18football level

00:31:18director of

00:31:19football John

00:31:20Rudkin

00:31:20the man who

00:31:21was director of

00:31:21football when

00:31:22they won the

00:31:22title but they

00:31:24have lost their

00:31:24way as a club

00:31:25massively yeah

00:31:26you can see even

00:31:27today with the

00:31:27empty seats in the

00:31:28stadium there's a

00:31:29protest before the

00:31:30game and they've

00:31:30got some big

00:31:31decisions to make

00:31:32before next season

00:31:33well a long time

00:31:33before next season

00:31:34because it's been

00:31:36awful for them it

00:31:37really has I mean

00:31:3727 goals and 33

00:31:39we've just shown there

00:31:40and the no goals

00:31:40at home for that

00:31:42amount of time

00:31:43and they've been

00:31:43miles off it

00:31:44Reid Van

00:31:44Nistrooy said

00:31:45afterwards I'm

00:31:45waiting on the

00:31:46clarity of the

00:31:47club and how they

00:31:47want to continue

00:31:48and that actually

00:31:49sums up the

00:31:50feeling of the

00:31:50fans is that the

00:31:51way they want

00:31:52some kind of

00:31:53clarity

00:31:53yeah yeah

00:31:54the decisions need

00:31:55to be made and

00:31:55that needs to be

00:31:56communicated to the

00:31:57fan base and

00:31:57everybody and it

00:31:58sounds like the

00:31:58manager as well

00:31:59which direction are

00:32:01they going in

00:32:01what are they going

00:32:02to do are they

00:32:03trying to bounce

00:32:03back I think they

00:32:05need they obviously

00:32:06need players brought

00:32:07in because the goal

00:32:09situation would still

00:32:10be the same next

00:32:11season in any

00:32:12division if you're

00:32:13not creating enough

00:32:13chances you're not

00:32:14going to score goals

00:32:14you're not going to

00:32:15win games so you

00:32:16know for the manager

00:32:17he probably needs

00:32:17some clarity the

00:32:18players do as well

00:32:19as the fans

00:32:20right Fulham began

00:32:22the day six points

00:32:23behind visitors

00:32:23Chelsea who could

00:32:24move back into the

00:32:25top five and the

00:32:26Champions League

00:32:27places with a

00:32:28victory Jonathan

00:32:29Pearce watch this

00:32:29one

00:32:30Fulham the hole is

00:32:35greater than the

00:32:36sum of its parts a

00:32:37real team ethic

00:32:38playing for Europe

00:32:39still Chelsea parts

00:32:41of the sum are

00:32:42missing what is the

00:32:43team ethic at the

00:32:44moment leading a win

00:32:46in the chase for

00:32:47Champions League

00:32:47football two Fulham

00:32:49changes from the

00:32:50disappointing defeat

00:32:51at Bournemouth

00:32:52Kenny Tete gets his

00:32:54first start since a

00:32:55December knee injury

00:32:56with Timothy

00:32:57Castagne making way

00:32:58and Raul Jimenez is

00:32:59swapped in again for

00:33:00the injured Muniz

00:33:01who scored in the

00:33:02Christmas win at

00:33:03Stamford Bridge

00:33:04they've never done

00:33:05the double over

00:33:05their neighbours

00:33:06good to see Rhys

00:33:07James playing back

00:33:08to back Chelsea

00:33:09games inside four

00:33:10days having started

00:33:11Thursdays two

00:33:12undefeated by

00:33:13Legia Warsaw when

00:33:14they made seven

00:33:15changes the

00:33:16inclusion of James

00:33:17for former Fulham

00:33:18defender Tosin

00:33:18Anarabayo is the

00:33:20only change though

00:33:21from the league

00:33:22draw with Ipswich

00:33:23it's eight premier

00:33:24games away without a

00:33:26victory for them

00:33:26Chelsea won five

00:33:30of their last six

00:33:31Premier League away

00:33:32games against Fulham

00:33:33but you have to go

00:33:34back to December

00:33:35the 8th for their

00:33:36last victory in the

00:33:37competition away from

00:33:38home this season

00:33:39and here's Sessegnor

00:33:41hugging the line

00:33:42coming in off it now

00:33:43bright burst from

00:33:44good challenge by

00:33:45Cucuret Teto

00:33:46I think that's offside

00:33:47isn't it

00:33:48Sessegnor the flag

00:33:49stays down

00:33:50into Israel Jimenez

00:33:51flag has stayed down

00:33:52and here's Iwobi

00:33:54dove it wide

00:33:56it's still in play

00:33:57tap back in

00:33:57and Fulham lead

00:33:58and then the flag

00:33:59goes up

00:34:00Barrera stabbed it in

00:34:03now I don't know

00:34:05whether there was a

00:34:05subsequent offside

00:34:06but the initial move

00:34:08forward seemed to

00:34:10catch the Fulham

00:34:11player in an offside

00:34:12position

00:34:12it's a very very

00:34:13late flag

00:34:14if that's the case

00:34:14I do have the

00:34:17semi-automated

00:34:18offside technique

00:34:21here

00:34:21the semi-automated

00:34:23technology doesn't come

00:34:24in at Ferrari pace

00:34:25by the way

00:34:26does it

00:34:26more like

00:34:27Morris Miner pace

00:34:28with all due respect

00:34:29to Morris Miner

00:34:29as I had one

00:34:30under a little bit

00:34:34of pressure

00:34:34still in the

00:34:35conference league

00:34:36of course

00:34:36and favourites

00:34:37to win it

00:34:37they need to

00:34:38ensure a top

00:34:39five place

00:34:40that's a decent

00:34:43ball attempted

00:34:43by James

00:34:44towards Neto

00:34:45just swerved

00:34:46in the wind

00:34:46there

00:34:47and Neto's

00:34:48pulled back

00:34:48by Tete

00:34:49who's struggling

00:34:49against it

00:34:50Neto a little bit

00:34:52like April

00:34:53Webber

00:34:53can blow

00:34:54hot and cold

00:34:54he's good

00:34:56he's very very

00:34:57good

00:34:57and he's bad

00:34:58you just don't

00:34:59see him in a game

00:34:59but he's won

00:35:00this free kick

00:35:01straight at the

00:35:07keeper

00:35:07James with a hit

00:35:10comfortable

00:35:12save for Lena

00:35:12Chalaba

00:35:15James

00:35:20Palmer's ghosted

00:35:22into a little bit

00:35:22of space

00:35:23hard to work

00:35:26he was coming

00:35:30towards Jackson

00:35:30smothered by the

00:35:33goalkeeper in the

00:35:34end

00:35:34first touch

00:35:36took it around

00:35:36the defender

00:35:37was he being pulled

00:35:39back in there

00:35:40probably six of one

00:35:42James good in possession

00:35:52James good in possession

00:35:52from Sassignal

00:35:53Iwobi

00:35:56bit of space for him

00:35:57to get the shot

00:35:58away

00:35:58and Fulham lead

00:35:59James was caught

00:36:02in possession

00:36:03and Fulham have made

00:36:04Chelsea pay

00:36:0520 minutes gone

00:36:06slightly against the

00:36:08run of play

00:36:09Fulham lead

00:36:10their first shot

00:36:12really in the game

00:36:13he's James

00:36:15trying to play out

00:36:17lacking awareness

00:36:17no communication

00:36:18from his teammates

00:36:19that's poor

00:36:20he Wobi arrived

00:36:22in space

00:36:23and got the shot

00:36:24away

00:36:24Sanchez might have

00:36:26been partially

00:36:27unsighted

00:36:28but he was beaten

00:36:30by a crisp delivery

00:36:31Minnis with a little

00:36:37back heel

00:36:38Colwell at the stretch

00:36:40Jackson did well

00:36:43Neto in support

00:36:44Mabuiwake is on the

00:36:46right

00:36:46Colpalma arriving

00:36:48it's a dangerous

00:36:48ball in

00:36:49lovely delivery

00:36:50from Pedro Neto

00:36:52deserved a better

00:36:54effort in the middle

00:36:55he certainly had

00:36:59enough of the ball

00:37:00in the first half

00:37:00to be level

00:37:02clearance drops

00:37:10here for Gusto

00:37:11good header

00:37:11Neto

00:37:12Neto's had a

00:37:16decent game

00:37:17Gusto will let

00:37:18fly

00:37:19straight at

00:37:20Lehnert

00:37:20time and space

00:37:26from which to get

00:37:27away the shot

00:37:27straight at

00:37:29Bernd Lehnert

00:37:29Neto

00:37:35releases early

00:37:36to Enzo Fernandes

00:37:37Bassey's there

00:37:38to cover

00:37:38Nandes got the

00:37:39best of the ball

00:37:40here's Jackson

00:37:41little set up

00:37:42for Neto

00:37:43it very nearly

00:37:44squirmed underneath

00:37:46Bernd Lehnert

00:37:46and that's the

00:37:48closest Chelsea

00:37:48have come

00:37:49the shot was low

00:37:52couldn't get as

00:37:54clean a strike

00:37:55on the ball

00:37:55as he would have

00:37:56hoped

00:37:56nearly went

00:37:57through the legs

00:37:58of Lehnert

00:37:58this Casado

00:38:04two to his left

00:38:05furthest wide

00:38:05is Sancho

00:38:06going to tap

00:38:07the penalty area

00:38:07now

00:38:08Tete isolated

00:38:09with him

00:38:09goes inside

00:38:11Kenny

00:38:11Tete

00:38:11decent hit

00:38:14comfortable

00:38:15save

00:38:16six efforts

00:38:19on target

00:38:19now for Chelsea

00:38:20but they've all

00:38:21been easily dealt

00:38:22with

00:38:22comfortable

00:38:23for the goalkeeper

00:38:24Gusto

00:38:30releases to Neto

00:38:31he's been the

00:38:32most dangerous

00:38:33player

00:38:33press ballooned

00:38:36Sancho

00:38:37would do well

00:38:38to keep it in

00:38:39has done well

00:38:40into Fernandez

00:38:45Sancho

00:38:46available again

00:38:47Palma

00:38:50Chalaba

00:38:57still has seven

00:38:59minutes to go

00:39:00Gusto came in

00:39:01Neto came in

00:39:02to the penalty

00:39:02it's in

00:39:03it's a good

00:39:04goal

00:39:04it's a smashing

00:39:06goal by Tyrit

00:39:17down

00:39:18came off the

00:39:18defender

00:39:19to George

00:39:20and he didn't

00:39:20need to think

00:39:21he knew where

00:39:21the goal was

00:39:22and he swept

00:39:23it into the

00:39:24bottom corner

00:39:24really good

00:41:14Fulham

00:41:14by two

00:41:14goals

00:41:15to one

00:41:15it's a

00:41:19difficult one

00:41:20to take

00:41:21before this

00:41:22game we had

00:41:22two wins

00:41:23in two big

00:41:24games at

00:41:28the second

00:41:29half was

00:41:29not

00:41:29and we

00:41:30lost

00:41:30the game

00:41:31so it's

00:41:31difficult

00:41:32when it

00:41:32was a

00:41:32derby

00:41:32and all

00:41:33that

00:41:42from

00:41:42outside

00:41:42sometimes

00:41:43it looks

00:41:44more

00:41:44easy

00:41:44but

00:41:45when it's

00:41:46a game

00:42:28what

00:42:28we

00:42:28did

00:42:28today

00:42:28we

00:42:28won

00:42:28the

00:42:28game

00:42:29in

00:42:29a

00:42:29difficult

00:42:29place

00:42:29against

00:42:30a

00:42:30difficult

00:42:30team

00:42:30and

00:42:31we

00:42:31are

00:42:31really

00:42:31happy

00:42:32well

00:42:32they were

00:42:33two

00:42:33very

00:42:33different halves

00:42:34for Chelsea

00:42:35weren't they

00:42:35they were

00:42:36very different halves

00:42:37and they were

00:42:38really struggling

00:42:39in forward

00:42:40positions

00:42:40Chelsea

00:42:41I mean

00:42:41when you

00:42:41consider

00:42:42Cole Palmer

00:42:43hasn't scored

00:42:43in 16

00:42:45Nicholas Jackson

00:42:46hasn't scored

00:42:47in 13

00:42:47and it

00:42:49just

00:42:49wasn't

00:42:49working

00:42:50for them

00:42:50again

00:42:51today

00:42:51for whatever

00:42:52reason

00:42:52I mean

00:42:53they lost

00:42:54the ball

00:42:54far too

00:42:55easily

00:42:55they weren't

00:42:55really a

00:42:56threat in front

00:42:56of the goal

00:42:57if Jackson

00:42:57makes a run

00:42:58there towards

00:42:59the penalty

00:42:59spot

00:42:59makes it so

00:43:00much easier

00:43:01for Cucurella

00:43:02to put that

00:43:03ball in there

00:43:03and different

00:43:04options

00:43:05they have to

00:43:05pass it

00:43:06backwards

00:43:06and then

00:43:07Palmer loses

00:43:07it again

00:43:08and then

00:43:09Fulham are

00:43:09on the

00:43:09attack

00:43:10and it

00:43:10happened

00:43:11so many

00:43:12times

00:43:12when the

00:43:12ball goes

00:43:13up there

00:43:13that has

00:43:14to stick

00:43:14that can't

00:43:15go under

00:43:15your foot

00:43:16like that

00:43:16as a

00:43:16forward

00:43:16because

00:43:17everything

00:43:17else

00:43:18breaks

00:43:18down

00:43:18and

00:43:19I really

00:43:20haven't got

00:43:20a clue

00:43:21what he's

00:43:21trying to

00:43:21do

00:43:21here

00:43:22he has

00:43:22got

00:43:22options

00:43:23but

00:43:23I'm not

00:43:24sure he

00:43:24knows

00:43:25what he's

00:43:25doing

00:43:25when he gets

00:43:26into that

00:43:27position

00:43:28and that's

00:43:29basically

00:43:30not good

00:43:31enough

00:43:31same thing

00:43:32again

00:43:32into Palmer

00:43:33again he

00:43:34loses the

00:43:35ball

00:43:35so everything

00:43:36was breaking

00:43:36down

00:43:37and the

00:43:37manager

00:43:37makes a

00:43:38change

00:43:38he brings

00:43:39young

00:43:39Tyreek

00:43:40George

00:43:40on

00:43:4019

00:43:41year old

00:43:42and all

00:43:42of a

00:43:43sudden

00:43:43that change

00:43:44changes

00:43:45the game

00:43:45because

00:43:46this finish

00:43:47is so

00:43:47instinctive

00:43:48it really

00:43:48is and

00:43:49it wasn't

00:43:49going to

00:43:49happen

00:43:49with those

00:43:50other two

00:43:50on the

00:43:51pitch

00:43:51that is

00:43:52such a

00:43:52clever

00:43:52finish

00:43:53no

00:43:54nonsense

00:43:54doesn't

00:43:55think about

00:43:55it

00:43:55just outside

00:43:56the box

00:43:57hit it

00:43:57into the

00:43:57corner

00:43:58and Chelsea

00:43:59are a

00:43:59different

00:43:59team

00:44:00and Neto

00:44:01who was

00:44:01probably

00:44:01their best

00:44:02player

00:44:02he was the

00:44:03only threat

00:44:04really that

00:44:04was pushing

00:44:05if you thought

00:44:05that was a

00:44:06good finish

00:44:06from

00:44:07George

00:44:07then have

00:44:09a look at

00:44:09that one

00:44:09the touch

00:44:10the swivel

00:44:11and then the

00:44:12power he gets

00:44:12on it

00:44:13keepers got

00:44:14no chance

00:44:14so with

00:44:15ten minutes

00:44:15to go

00:44:15they're in

00:44:16the mire

00:44:16Chelsea

00:44:17and then all

00:44:18of a sudden

00:44:18Tyreek George

00:44:19comes on

00:44:20and changes it

00:44:21then they get

00:44:21the winning

00:44:22goal and that

00:44:23is a huge

00:44:24three points

00:44:25for Chelsea

00:44:25is that a

00:44:26difference in

00:44:27confidence

00:44:27do you think

00:44:28without actually

00:44:29talking to

00:44:29Palmer or

00:44:30Jackson

00:44:30you've got

00:44:30two players

00:44:31there who

00:44:32are struggling

00:44:32a bit

00:44:32for form

00:44:34and therefore

00:44:34aren't doing

00:44:35things

00:44:35instinctively

00:44:36but those

00:44:36other two

00:44:37are

00:44:37well you

00:44:38see different

00:44:38players

00:44:39when things

00:44:39are going

00:44:40really well

00:44:40for you

00:44:40just do

00:44:41it without

00:44:41even thinking

00:44:42when you're

00:44:43not and you're

00:44:43going on a

00:44:44barren run

00:44:44you're not

00:44:45scoring your

00:44:45touches

00:44:46all of a sudden

00:44:47life's different

00:44:48football's different

00:44:48and you start

00:44:49thinking about

00:44:50things

00:44:50nothing's natural

00:44:51anymore

00:44:52and you can

00:44:52see that's

00:44:53exactly what's

00:44:54happening with

00:44:54those two

00:44:54particularly

00:44:55Palmer

00:44:55the race

00:44:56for the

00:44:57top five

00:44:59now for the

00:45:00Champions League

00:45:00places is

00:45:01absolutely

00:45:02phenomenal

00:45:03I mean

00:45:03to be honest

00:45:04this graphic

00:45:05may be a bit

00:45:06much if you've

00:45:06had a long

00:45:07Easter Sunday

00:45:07lunch

00:45:08I'm sober

00:45:09and it's

00:45:10hurting my

00:45:10head

00:45:10but they're

00:45:12all their

00:45:12remaining

00:45:12fixtures

00:45:13this is where

00:45:13they're at

00:45:14the ones

00:45:15in grey

00:45:16are the

00:45:16games against

00:45:17teams who

00:45:17are also

00:45:18in the race

00:45:18for the

00:45:18top seven

00:45:19Chelsea's got

00:45:20the toughest

00:45:21running

00:45:21do you think

00:45:22yeah I think

00:45:23that Forest

00:45:24Chelsea game

00:45:25at the end

00:45:26of the season

00:45:26could be an

00:45:27interesting one

00:45:27but you just

00:45:28don't know

00:45:28because with

00:45:28the cup

00:45:29games and

00:45:29you don't

00:45:30know who's

00:45:30going to be

00:45:31fighting for

00:45:32what I think

00:45:32Manchester City

00:45:33will feel

00:45:33quite confident

00:45:34looking at

00:45:34that

00:45:35and your

00:45:36boys

00:45:36Newcastle

00:45:37will probably

00:45:38feel good

00:45:38about it

00:45:39I think

00:45:39Chelsea

00:45:39probably have

00:45:39the most

00:45:40difficult

00:45:40and do you

00:45:41think

00:45:41with obviously

00:45:42three of

00:45:43those five

00:45:44are in

00:45:45FA Cup

00:45:45semi-final

00:45:46action

00:45:46City and

00:45:46Forest and

00:45:47Villa

00:45:47that that

00:45:48will play

00:45:48a part

00:45:49yeah well

00:45:50listen

00:45:50it's as

00:45:51important to

00:45:52get in the

00:45:52Champions League

00:45:52but you know

00:45:53it depends

00:45:54what the

00:45:55manager is

00:45:55prioritising

00:45:56it's also

00:45:57a nice

00:45:57pick up a

00:45:57trophy

00:45:58if you can

00:45:58do both

00:45:58then great

00:45:59that's what

00:45:59they'll be

00:45:59trying to

00:46:00do

00:46:00but it

00:46:00just depends

00:46:01what teams

00:46:02are playing

00:46:02for

00:46:03not to say

00:46:04they're not

00:46:04going to try

00:46:04as hard

00:46:05but if

00:46:05they're not

00:46:06playing for

00:46:06nothing

00:46:06it's going

00:46:07to be an

00:46:07easier game

00:46:08it's hard

00:46:08enough to

00:46:08predict results

00:46:09anyway but at

00:46:10this stage of

00:46:10the season

00:46:11it's almost

00:46:11impossible

00:46:12but my guess

00:46:13will be

00:46:14because I know

00:48:31there are first starts

00:48:32for Santiago Bueno

00:48:33and top scorer

00:48:34Mateos Cunha

00:48:35certainly an end-of-season

00:48:40feel to this game

00:48:41not only because

00:48:42of the glorious weather

00:48:43very relaxed crowd

00:48:45albeit full

00:48:46not particularly noisy

00:48:47today

00:48:47both of these sides

00:48:49save for another season

00:48:51which is certainly

00:48:52a strange thing to say

00:48:53when connected

00:48:54with Manchester United

00:48:55Tati Gomez

00:48:57providing the option

00:48:58for Wolves

00:48:58not the most comfortable

00:49:15Manchester United

00:49:16almost four years ago

00:49:18the team's extremely

00:49:21ponderous so far

00:49:22the pace of this game

00:49:24probably only just

00:49:24above testimonial level

00:49:25Manezzi

00:49:28pinching it back

00:49:29and he was shown

00:49:29a bit too much

00:50:41who didn't look

00:50:42totally comfortable

00:50:43there's nowhere

00:50:47near the corner

00:53:21throw

00:53:22into

00:53:22midfield

00:53:23but

00:53:23the only

00:53:24midfielder

00:53:24he found

00:53:25was

00:53:25Andre

00:53:25Matthijs Cunha gets away from Fredriksen, Matthijs Cunha hauled down, and Wolves have a free kick in a very promising area.

00:53:36The yellow card comes out for Eriksen, who felt he had to make an intervention.

00:53:42Looks like it's going to be Sarabia or Cunha here for Wolves, who've scored in each of their last nine Premier League games,

00:53:48but haven't had a shot on target so far at Old Trafford.

00:53:51Sarabia has only just come on, but he will take this here, and score beautifully!

00:54:00How about that for a first touch? Pablo Sarabia for Wolverhampton Wanderers!

00:54:07A man who used to play for Ruben Amolim at Sporting has now potentially landed a knockout blow against his Manchester United team.

00:54:16A glorious hit there by Pablo Sarabia, who almost always delivers when he comes on off the bench for Wolves.

00:54:27Our Wolves in for a rare away win here at Old Trafford.

00:54:30Hobie.

00:54:35There's not too many touches since coming on, but that's a good one to bring in Eriksen, Amas.

00:54:39Here against Doherty.

00:54:44Garnacho gets away from Andre, and will surely deliver.

00:54:48That he does! And it's skied by Mount.

00:54:51A golden chance for Manchester United to pull level.

00:54:56Maybe it's not going to happen today for Manchester United.

00:55:00The match was not a good match for our part, but you know, if you are not in a good day, you must win.

00:55:10You must win.

00:55:11You must win.

00:55:12And always the way to win is the spirit of a team.

00:55:17We need to score goals.

00:55:18If you don't score goals, they will have one chance because this is Premier League and you lose games.

00:55:23How do you prepare a player in such a short space of time like Dan Bentley who, you know, going out for the warm-up,

00:55:28didn't know that he was starting but then suddenly had 20 minutes to get ready in here?

00:55:32He's a player that works a lot to be ready for this kind of situation and he helped us.

00:55:39Certainly not what I expected when I woke up this morning.

00:55:41But that's, you know, the beauty of the position I'm in at the moment is you have to be ready.

00:55:45We stood up to the test that they have and obviously the quality that they possess, which we know is enormous.

00:55:50And, yeah, credit to the boys. They worked really, very hard even on a hot day like it was today.

00:55:56And when we were probably looking a little bit leggy, we made sure we dug in and stuck together.

00:55:59Well, it was some goal to win it, wasn't it?

00:56:01Talk us through it.

00:56:03Yeah, it was it was his third touch coming off the bench, I think.

00:56:08And this is some strike textbook free kick. I don't think the wall can do anymore.

00:56:12You know, he's took it off.

00:56:14Matthias Cuniu won the free kick. He thought he was going to take it.

00:56:16But we could watch that all day. It doesn't get any better than that.

00:56:19They practice this in training. He's got the whip and the dip.

00:56:22I don't think that the goalkeeper can get there. I know that maybe some people do.

00:56:26But what a strike to win the game that is.

00:56:29Magnificent. It really is.

00:56:31And it just continues the run that Wolves have had since they changed their manager.

00:56:38And Vito Pereira came in, Alan.

00:56:40Look, there are only four teams with a better record when it comes to the number of points won since he took over.

00:56:48Well, there were 13 points behind Manchester United when he took over in December.

00:56:53They're level with them now.

00:56:55I mean, he really has done an incredible job.

00:56:58Everyone's changed, the whole atmosphere, both on the pitch and off the pitch.

00:57:04Well, he has, yeah.

00:57:05One of the big things he's done, you talk to all his fans, he's changed the atmosphere around the place.

00:57:09Absolutely, yeah. And he's given everyone belief and confidence and made them more solid at the back and more open.

00:57:15All over the park they're better, so he's doing a great job.

00:57:17Belief and confidence is not something Manchester United have when going forward.

00:57:21No, and there's been an...

00:57:23We've probably done analysis this season on...

00:57:25Oh, we have!

00:57:26On what's going on, attacking-wise.

00:57:29And sometimes you say Hoyland doesn't get the service.

00:57:31Well, today he did.

00:57:33Harry and Mas, this is early in the game.

00:57:36We look here, there's three on three, but get across your defender.

00:57:41If Dorgu goes, Garnaccio goes and Hoyland goes in front of the defenders, they get first contact on this ball, as it is they don't.

00:57:48Hoyland's clapping because he wants the service into the box, which sometimes he's been lacking.

00:57:52This time it's Garnaccio.

00:57:54Another good ball.

00:57:55Hoyland and Eriksen don't go.

00:57:57I'm looking at Dorgu.

00:57:58Can he go and really be hungry for a goal and get in front of Art Nori?

00:58:02No, he doesn't go.

00:58:03None of them go that time.

00:58:04It's near easy clearance.

00:58:07And Mas who also had a good game.

00:58:10Another ball.

00:58:11We see Dorgu.

00:58:12He's put his hand up.

00:58:13He wants the ball there.

00:58:14But getting where you're going to score goals.

00:58:16And that's an excellent cross to drop the ball in the six-yard box there.

00:58:19And nobody attacking it again.

00:58:21Eriksen, as soon as he plays this ball.

00:58:24If Kobe Meno's your opposite number 10.

00:58:27He's got to be sprinting and bursting a gut to get in the box just in case something like that happens.

00:58:33Hoyland's gone to the first post.

00:58:35It goes behind him.

00:58:36And he's nine yards away from the ball.

00:58:38They need to be a little bit more hungry to score goals.

00:58:42All of them.

00:58:43Excellent hold up play from Hoyland.

00:58:46Now look at this.

00:58:47He looks at him.

00:58:48It looks like he looks at him.

00:58:49That's not a difficult pass.

00:58:50Just leave it in the grass for him.

00:58:51It's an easy.

00:58:52Just roll it now.

00:58:53No.

00:58:54Gets confused.

00:58:55A few step overs.

00:58:56Let's the defender back in.

00:58:58Dorgu is fuming.

00:58:59Frustrated at the back.

00:59:00It's a great little move.

00:59:02One touch.

00:59:03And that.

00:59:04If you're struggling for goals.

00:59:06You can't ask for a better chance than this all game.

00:59:08Go with a bit of meaning.

00:59:10I mean, Al.

00:59:11Take the lock.

00:59:12Take the lock.

00:59:13Ball, defender, everything.

00:59:14Yourself.

00:59:15Everything ends up in the back.

00:59:16Everything's got to end up in the back.

00:59:18I'm looking at a damaged player in Hoyland.

00:59:21I think he wasn't ready and isn't ready to lead the line at a club like Manchester United.

00:59:27Three Premier League goals.

00:59:29And I'm seeing at the minute what I'm watching with him is a guy that doesn't really want to get in there.

00:59:35He's perhaps a second too early or a second too late.

00:59:39And his timing is all wrong.

00:59:40And I think there's no doubt he's crisis in confidence.

00:59:43Is the timing all wrong as well because the personnel is constantly changing behind him?

00:59:50Well, and that.

00:59:51And he's been put into a really, really difficult situation at a club where unless you're exceptional,

00:59:58and I mean exceptional, to lead the line for that football club, you have to be really talented.

01:00:03And he's not at the stage of his career where he should be leading the line.

01:00:08I'm not saying there's not a good player in there.

01:00:10I think there is a good player in there.

01:00:11But the pressure that's been put on him in terms of him having to do what he can't do,

01:00:17and also the price tag, he's not ready to lead the line as yet.

01:00:20Very quickly, it's on the others as well though.

01:00:22Bruno Fernandes had four shots today.

01:00:24Twice as many as any of the United players.

01:00:26Only on the pitch for 30 minutes.

01:00:28Yeah, but they put 28 crosses into the box today.

01:00:31And when you're playing with a nine and two tens, you'd expect more people flooding the box to score goals at home against Wolves.

01:00:38We'll start our round up of Saturday's goals at Goodison.

01:00:42Professional League game.

01:00:49Leonardo Silva.

01:00:51He's telling Mateus Nunes where to go and when, and he's put the ball in for Nico O'Reilly to score.

01:01:01The boy can do no wrong at the moment, scored against Crystal Palace last week and now he scores at Gunnison Park to give Manchester City a laid lead.

01:01:13Even Diaz has to quicken his stride, Doku, that's Gundogan, couldn't complete the pirouette, oh that's a really good finish though from Mateo Kovacic to finish the game.

01:01:27Job done for City now.

01:01:36Sandro Tonali is back to clear for Newcastle, only as far as Tielemans.

01:01:42And then the shot deflected and in, 34 seconds.

01:01:49Ollie Watkins with the slice of luck.

01:01:57Swung in by Harvey Barnes, great delivery and it squeezed through.

01:02:02And Fabian Scherr has equalised for Newcastle.

01:02:06His 17th Premier League goal.

01:02:14Watkins, Martin goes on outside him, it's Martin!

01:02:18It's Martin!

01:02:22It's his first Premier League goal.

01:02:25And it's won at the halt end, that restores Villa's lead.

01:02:29Ramza up against Trippier.

01:02:38Oh, and squeezed in by Tielemans!

01:02:42To create that two-goal cushion.

01:02:47Did he get the final touch?

01:02:49No, he didn't.

01:02:50I think that's a Dan Byrne own goal.

01:02:58Here come Villa again.

01:02:59Rogers to seal it!

01:03:00Brilliant from Poe!

01:03:02Headed away by Livramento.

01:03:04Back from Ramsey.

01:03:05Rogers.

01:03:07Anana!

01:03:08Goodness me!

01:03:10What a hit!

01:03:11And Villa in the blink of an eye have four!

01:03:14And Villa in the blink of an eye have four!

01:03:26For Jared Bowen.

01:03:28Up against Manning!

01:03:30Bowen delivers!

01:03:32For West Ham United!

01:03:34West Ham counter-attack to score and take the lead.

01:03:39Tyler Diblet.

01:03:43And Walker-Peters.

01:03:45Nice little run here.

01:03:46Blocked by Kilman.

01:03:47Ugochukwu!

01:03:49Strikes the stoppage time equalizer for Southampton!

01:03:55That goal from Ugochukwu could see Southampton avoid

01:04:00the worst season of Premier League history in terms of a points tally.

01:04:03Look what!

01:04:07Look what!

01:04:08Picked out Saar.

01:04:09Good turn and go from him.

01:04:13And he's buckled over by Scott, who's already on a yellow card.

01:04:17Now that was very, very risky from Alex Scott.

01:04:21How many times have you seen a yellow card given for something like that?

01:04:25Clivert spinning away from Richards.

01:04:33Now he's another player who is on a yellow and he is going to get a second booking and be dismissed.

01:04:40And Crystal Palace are down to ten men.

01:04:42And the boos cut the way of the referee as the players head off.

01:04:55Good ball here for Umbermo.

01:04:58Goal side of Van Hecker!

01:05:00Brilliant finish from a brilliant goalscorer.

01:05:03His 17th Premier League goal of the season.

01:05:09And didn't he take it well?

01:05:13O'Reilly with a sweet take on the half turn.

01:05:16Very him.

01:05:18Yankouba Minte.

01:05:20Got to find a teammate and quickly.

01:05:22FIFA tries to do just that.

01:05:24It's Welbeck!

01:05:25Right at the end of the first half.

01:05:28Brighten the level.

01:05:30And it's Danny Welbeck.

01:05:36Dam's guard.

01:05:38Wiesa.

01:05:40Onside for now.

01:05:41Umbermo deflection and in!

01:05:45An early goal in both halves for Brian Umbermo.

01:05:49Brentford lead again.

01:05:50Can they keep hold of it this time?

01:05:55Dam's guard has released Umbermo.

01:05:58Only Schada in the middle but Wiesa is arriving.

01:06:01Johan Wiesa!

01:06:02Another deflection!

01:06:03Another Brentford goal!

01:06:04And they're in the clear now!

01:06:08And it's that forward pair again.

01:06:1134 Premier League goals between them.

01:06:22There's another tangle here.

01:06:25It's a curious coming together, isn't it?

01:06:30It's off the ball.

01:06:35João Pedro has been sent off.

01:06:45Hensherwood poking it through.

01:06:46Mitoma!

01:06:47Game on!

01:06:50Brighton's ten have halved the deficit.

01:06:53Jensen goes for the bodies in the middle.

01:06:55And that'll wrap it up!

01:06:56They want to make sure at the bottom of that bundle that Christian Norgard's okay.

01:07:09And he is.

01:07:10He's sealed the points for Brentford here.

01:07:12Brentford are going to have that long-awaited home win.
