00:00:30CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

00:00:40Four games on tonight's match of the day, too,

00:00:42as well as all the goals from yesterday.

00:00:44Farrah Williams and Leon Osman are with us.

00:00:47David Moyes' Everton homecoming didn't go to plan

00:00:50against Aston Villa on Wednesday night.

00:00:52Today, Tottenham with the visitors to Goodison.

00:00:54Commentator is Martin Fisher.

00:01:00Two famous clubs, but today it's a bottom-six clash

00:01:04between two struggling clubs.

00:01:06Just one Premier League win each since the start of December,

00:01:10and that is a combined total of 17 games.

00:01:14David Moyes has made two alterations

00:01:16to the side that started that match with Villa.

00:01:19A full Premier League debut for Irish international Jake O'Brien,

00:01:23and Jesper Lindström comes in on the right.

00:01:26Spurs also show a couple of changes after their defeat,

00:01:29at Arsenal.

00:01:31James Madison returns to make his 50th Premier League appearance

00:01:34for the club.

00:01:35Ben Davies back after a two-month absence

00:01:37with a hamstring strain.

00:01:39Dominic Solanke and Brennan Johnson

00:01:41the latest additions to Tottenham's lengthy injury list.

00:01:45Six teenagers on their bench, by the way.

00:01:47History firmly on the side of Spurs in this one.

00:01:55Everton have only managed one Premier League win in the last 24 meetings,

00:02:00and even that was away.

00:02:01Good persistence by Lindström, and Everton have got it back.

00:02:07Here's the Dame once more, worth a shot from there!

00:02:09And brings a good save out of Kinski.

00:02:11Well, it all started from the tenacious work from Lindström,

00:02:17and Kinski at full stretch to prevent him from getting his first goal in Everton Blue.

00:02:26This is Saar, that's a bit loose.

00:02:29Lindström, who started so brightly.

00:02:31Clever dummy by Mangala.

00:02:33Gay takes over.

00:02:34Through here for Calvert-Lewin.

00:02:35Surrounded by Spurs-Shirk,

00:02:37and what a finish that is!

00:02:38Dominic Calvert-Lewin puts Everton in front,

00:02:43and his 16-game goal drought is over.

00:02:48Well, he knows better than most that if he can get this fella scoring goals,

00:02:52Everton will steadily climb away from the danger zone.

00:02:56You can only wonder how much of a battering his confidence

00:03:00has taken in recent months, in recent seasons,

00:03:04but this was a quality finish.

00:03:06It started with Lindström.

00:03:09Gay took over, and Dominic Calvert-Lewin here

00:03:12with three Spurs players, if not four, around him.

00:03:15Bamboozles them with his speedy footwork,

00:03:18and it's a tidy finish.

00:03:20No need for power, just shoves it into the right-hand corner

00:03:24of the goalkeeper's goal.

00:03:26Everton in front.

00:03:28Familiar feeling for Ange Postacoglu.

00:03:34Spurs behind and not playing well.

00:03:40Pedro Poro, Kuliszewski, is in behind Gaye,

00:03:42Son waits in the middle, here he is!

00:03:44Had to do better, had to do better.

00:03:49It's a comfortable save in the end from Jordan Pickford.

00:03:52Had time for a touch but was trying to whip it into that bottom corner,

00:03:55it's far too close to the keeper.

00:03:57And more frustration for Ange.

00:04:00And Jai beautifully away from Sartre.

00:04:02Calvert-Lewin, Mangala!

00:04:04Against the post off the goalkeeper's touch.

00:04:06Lindström back in, up goes Calvert-Lewin!

00:04:10And Kinski with the save.

00:04:16Playing some really good stuff today, Everton.

00:04:19Fingertip save from Kinski onto the post.

00:04:22What a warrior he was in his heyday.

00:04:32Nicely worked by Everton.

00:04:34And it's Anjai bearing down on Dragasin.

00:04:36Lovely footwork.

00:04:38And a tidy finish!

00:04:40Well, they've not cheered like this at Goodison for quite some time.

00:04:46How they're enjoying the occasion.

00:04:53And he's milking the applause, and why not?

00:04:56Lovely build-up play once more from the home side.

00:05:01In behind Spurs midfield.

00:05:04And Anjai backing himself to run at Dragasin.

00:05:08And then lifts it powerfully over the head of Kinski.

00:05:13Oh, the good day is coming back under their former manager.

00:05:17Now back in the office.

00:05:27Spence just showing a bit of frustration there,

00:05:29has conceded a needless free kick.

00:05:32Problems mounting once more for Anj, Postakoglu and Tottenham.

00:05:39And with bad results come pressure.

00:05:41And Daniel Levy is not renowned particularly for his patience.

00:05:45In by Lindström.

00:05:50And the header brilliantly saved by Kinski.

00:05:52Tarkovsky it was, who's stooped to steer it on target.

00:05:58Good block by Kinski.

00:05:59It was, I suppose, straight at him, but good reflexes all the same.

00:06:02Maybe Tarkovsky could have done better.

00:06:04Lindström.

00:06:11That's another corner.

00:06:13Poor delivery by Lindström.

00:06:16Invited to try again by Michelenko.

00:06:18Deeper this time.

00:06:19Tarkovsky is hovering.

00:06:20Back in the middle.

00:06:21And it's a goal!

00:06:22I think the final touch was off Archie Gray.

00:06:23But it's 3-0 Aberton and Tarkovsky will get the bulk of the credit

00:06:25for his header back across the face of goal.

00:06:26And it's 3-0.

00:06:27And it's 3-0.

00:06:28And it's 3-0.

00:06:29And Tarkovsky will get the bulk of the credit for his header back across the face of goal.

00:06:30And it's 3-0.

00:06:31And it's 3-0.

00:06:32And Tarkovsky is hovering.

00:06:33Back in the middle.

00:06:34And it's a goal!

00:06:35I think the final touch was off Archie Gray.

00:06:38But it's 3-0.

00:06:39And Tarkovsky will get the bulk of the credit for his header back across the face of goal.

00:06:45And Gray couldn't get his feet right.

00:06:48And this is unbelievable given Everton's recent form.

00:06:53And there are Everton fans around us rubbing their eyes in disbelief.

00:06:57Sadly for Postacoglu, it's all too predictable.

00:07:01Their defensive shortcomings once more being brutally exposed.

00:07:06It's 3-0, Everton.

00:07:17Calvert-Lewis.

00:07:18On for N'Jai.

00:07:21Decorey is back post unmarked if N'Jai can get his head up and see him.

00:07:25Instead it's back here for Michelenko.

00:07:31Would have been a bit of a collector's item had the Ukrainians found the net there.

00:07:37Hasn't scored for well over a year in the Premier League.

00:07:40It sounds crazy.

00:07:41Everton are 3-up with half an hour to go.

00:07:43But there will be Evertonians inside the ground.

00:07:46A little bit scared that they're not home and dry yet.

00:07:48They might be now.

00:07:49Calvert-Lewis!

00:07:50He's put it wide.

00:07:53I have to say, he could have had a hat-trick today.

00:07:55He still might.

00:07:58It's a bit sloppy.

00:07:59It's more than a bit sloppy by Spurs at the back.

00:08:01Lins them onto it quickly.

00:08:02And Calvert-Lewis just trying to hook it in.

00:08:04Well, the Spurs fans not happy, obviously, but the champ is we want Levy out rather than the manager.

00:08:15They might want both, of course, but the champ was certainly about the man upstairs.

00:08:20Kulusevski forward for Sonners now down that right-hand side.

00:08:24He's looking for Maddison.

00:08:27Lovely footwork from him and he's found Mikey Moore.

00:08:30Kulusevski scores!

00:08:33Beautiful finish by Kulusevski.

00:08:36And Spurs are on the score sheet at last.

00:08:41But is it far too late?

00:08:44Well, it started with that lovely touch from Richarlison and then this is more like it from Spurs.

00:08:50Son's ball forward, Maddison onside.

00:08:52He had the intelligence not to try and shoot from there, instead picked out Mikey Moore.

00:08:57But nobody could deal with that delightful chip from Dejan Kulusevski.

00:09:02And all Spurs need now is another two.

00:09:08Now Son can come left for Moore.

00:09:13Faced by Paterson.

00:09:14And it's off the Everton defenders and behind for the corner.

00:09:23Got to get a move on Tottenham, it's Son, it's Moore.

00:09:28Dangerous ball in!

00:09:29And they've got another one back.

00:09:32Richarlison, on his return to Goodison Park, makes it 3-2.

00:09:38But there's a glimmer, a glimmer of hope for Tottenham Hotspur.

00:09:41Well, full marks for Mikey Moore, the 17-year-old.

00:09:44He's made a big difference since coming on.

00:09:46It's a great ball in.

00:09:47Everton defended like statues.

00:09:50And Richarlison never gave it up at the back post.

00:09:54It's 3-2.

00:09:55Oh, they're biting their nails, they cannot watch this.

00:10:01And listen to the roar around Goodison.

00:10:06David Moyes has his first Everton win since returning here.

00:10:10It should have been more comfortable than it was in the end.

00:10:12As Ange Costa-Coglou's Tottenham fought right to the end.

00:10:17But it's another defeat for them.

00:10:19And this season needs to improve quickly.

00:10:22Final score, Goodison.

00:10:24Everton 3, Spurs 2.

00:10:30Ange, familiar story.

00:10:32What are your assessments of that performance, please?

00:10:35Familiar story?

00:10:37Well, in terms of defeat.

00:10:39OK, great way to start an interview.

00:10:42Yeah, look, it was a tough result for us.

00:10:44And, you know, we were obviously first half,

00:10:47we struggled to get control of the game.

00:10:48Obviously, you know, made some changes in the team

00:10:50that probably weren't helpful in the end.

00:10:53Players kind of struggled to come to terms with it.

00:10:55Everton capitalised on it.

00:10:57The second half, you know, the players, you know,

00:11:01put in the right response and, yeah, credit to them.

00:11:04But we obviously fell short.

00:11:05The position we're in, getting over the line in the games

00:11:07is the most important thing.

00:11:08You can talk about the best style you want,

00:11:10but getting the three points is really what we need to do.

00:11:13I actually thought we played well today.

00:11:14We scored a terrific goal,

00:11:15really good bit of play to score.

00:11:18Might have been the second goal.

00:11:19But overall, I think getting the three points

00:11:22will give us a lot of confidence.

00:11:23I can tell in the dressing room.

00:11:24I thought it was a wee bit unlike us to concede goals

00:11:26because in the main we're quite strong defensively.

00:11:29Lovely.

00:11:30But again, you mustn't take it away from what Tottenham can do.

00:11:32Tottenham can beat just about any team on their day

00:11:35and thankfully we stopped them.

00:11:39Three points, three goals.

00:11:41You can't stop smiling all afternoon.

00:11:44They were at it, weren't they?

00:11:46Yeah.

00:11:47I mean, typical Everton made it close at the end,

00:11:49you know, being an Evertonian.

00:11:50But yeah, they were at it all afternoon long.

00:11:52Absolutely.

00:11:53They started brilliantly.

00:11:54I mean, you know, I think quite often in the Premier League,

00:11:57Everton have sat off the opponents

00:11:59and allowed them to get going.

00:12:01But not today.

00:12:02Right from the first whistle,

00:12:03they were in the faces of this Tottenham Hotspur team.

00:12:07Exactly what David Moyes had wanted.

00:12:08A fast start in the game.

00:12:10Lindstrom starting the press on this occasion.

00:12:13Drissa Gay following up Calvert-Lewin.

00:12:15So often, Everton have waited for things to happen.

00:12:17But today, you see Decorey breaking from midfield.

00:12:19If you're going to press,

00:12:20your defenders have to press behind you.

00:12:22You have to be brave enough to be man-for-man at the back.

00:12:24But I thought the balance was really good.

00:12:27You see a spin from Kuliszewski.

00:12:28Brantley has to drop away.

00:12:29Suddenly, Son looks like he's got space.

00:12:31No.

00:12:32Tarkovsky's pressing in there.

00:12:33So is Idrissa Gay and Everton,

00:12:35and win the free kick.

00:12:37And Lindstrom was asked to do a bit of a hybrid role today.

00:12:40He was a right-winger in possession,

00:12:42a right-wing back out of possession.

00:12:44And I thought it was his best game.

00:12:46It allowed him to press.

00:12:47It allowed him to get on the board.

00:12:48It allowed him to be a real part in what Everton did positively.

00:12:52And Dominic Calvert-Lewin starting the press there.

00:12:55He's had big criticism this season for not scoring goals.

00:12:58But his all-round work rate's been great.

00:12:59And helping start that press,

00:13:01you get turnovers,

00:13:02you win the ball back in really high positions.

00:13:04And now Everton only need to make one or two passes

00:13:06to create an opportunity.

00:13:07They do.

00:13:08Dominic Calvert-Lewin was like a man with a new lease of life today.

00:13:11And David Moyes delighted with the way his team started.

00:13:14And you can see,

00:13:16I mean, those stats are quite startling, really,

00:13:20in the improvement today over their season average.

00:13:23Yeah, I mean, massive improvements.

00:13:25You can see here.

00:13:26I think the chances created was the biggest standout for me.

00:13:29And I think Leon mentioned it there.

00:13:31I think the energy that Everton started with, the connections,

00:13:33one went and everybody seemed to follow.

00:13:35And I think that set a trend right from the off.

00:13:37And, yeah, really impressive performance from Everton today.

00:13:39Well, because they've won,

00:13:41you ain't sharing your Everton analysis with anybody, are you?

00:13:44So you're going to...

00:13:46It's all mine this evening.

00:13:48Oh, no.

00:13:49Yeah, look at the tactical battle then

00:13:51and how Everton won that.

00:13:52Yeah, well, you know, I think going into this game,

00:13:54Everton, it's very rare having played a back four,

00:13:57a back five under anyone, wasn't Sean Dyche's strength.

00:14:00But today they did that.

00:14:02And what it allowed was Everton to thicken up the middle of the pitch.

00:14:05Him in and die, come off the wide areas where he's been very good,

00:14:09but he's not been able to be at his best offensively.

00:14:11He then joined in the middle.

00:14:12Yeah, Everton remained that solidity,

00:14:14especially the first half that they've had all season long.

00:14:17But what it allowed was Tarkovsky stepped in there.

00:14:19They had an extra centre-half.

00:14:21Jake O'Brien, who's certainly not had enough football

00:14:23since joining Everton in the summer, stepping in there.

00:14:25And yet, having bodies in the middle to force Spurs wide.

00:14:28But do they get across into the penalty area?

00:14:30Absolutely not.

00:14:31Michalenko, on this occasion, stopping the cross coming in.

00:14:34And, you know, they thought all day long, Spurs,

00:14:37they could play intricate passes.

00:14:39They thought they'd be able to find a gap.

00:14:40But Everton, there you go.

00:14:41Jake O'Brien, extra body, centre-half at the back.

00:14:44He decides to step in again.

00:14:46Kuliszewski thinks he's done a one-two.

00:14:48He steps across that second, that extra centre-half, Tarkovsky.

00:14:51And Everton looked like they'd been playing a back five all season long.

00:14:54But what it did allow at the other end of the pitch, as I mentioned,

00:14:57was Indai not to be up against Porro,

00:14:59but to be up against Archie Gray, the third centre-back,

00:15:02allowing him to step into better positions.

00:15:04One good bit of skill and suddenly, Everton have got bodies.

00:15:073v3 on the edge of the penalty area.

00:15:09Around Dominic Calvert-Lewin ends up in a Mangala shot.

00:15:12Haven't had enough bodies around Dominic Calvert-Lewin.

00:15:14That was going to be my point to you,

00:15:16that all of a sudden he's not isolated, is he?

00:15:19Yeah, absolutely.

00:15:20And I thought Spurs were their own problem.

00:15:22Porro never thinking about helping Indai on that situation.

00:15:24But look how many players they get forward.

00:15:26One simple pass and they've got bodies around Dominic Calvert-Lewin

00:15:29and they've benefited from it.

00:15:31I thought Everton tactically were terrific today.

00:15:33Is that the system for them going forward?

00:15:36Or does it depend on the opposition?

00:15:38I think time will tell on that.

00:15:39I think that having those three centre-backs,

00:15:42allowing Jacob Ryan to come in, I think,

00:15:44made Everton look a bit more solid.

00:15:46But the more important thing was getting players closer

00:15:48to Dominic Calvert-Lewin at the top of the pitch.

00:15:50And I think that system did help that today.

00:15:52I mean, we're constantly told that Poster Coglu won't change

00:15:54in this and he'll stick to this and he'll stick to that.

00:15:56He did change things a little bit today.

00:15:58And yet, in that post-match interview,

00:16:00he said his players struggled with it.

00:16:02They haven't.

00:16:03He also said that in the North London derby midweek.

00:16:05He said, you know, the players weren't at the races.

00:16:07They didn't show any intent.

00:16:08And it looked exactly the same today.

00:16:10I think the difference in the two teams.

00:16:12I mean, this is the first time or second time,

00:16:14I think, that Everton have played a back five.

00:16:16Tottenham have played a back five, free,

00:16:19whatever you want to call it, for a long period of time.

00:16:21And the disconnect within the team is obvious.

00:16:23You know, one goes and then the other centre-half drops off.

00:16:26And that disconnect allowed for gaps within the team.

00:16:29I just thought the connections in this Tottenham team,

00:16:31I thought the energy was lacking.

00:16:33And then the quality in the final third.

00:16:34I think, you know, somebody like Son,

00:16:36I know they've got a lot of injuries,

00:16:37but should he be playing at the minute in terms of what he's given?

00:16:40Probably not.

00:16:41I think they've really struggled Tottenham.

00:16:43But that's on the players, isn't it?

00:16:45I mean, players have to take individual responsibility as well.

00:16:48I know the heat is on Postacoglu,

00:16:50but quite a lot of the stuff you're talking about there

00:16:53is a player's responsibility.

00:16:55Yeah.

00:16:56Energy and effort and connections.

00:16:58No, I would agree.

00:16:59I think we all highlighted, haven't we,

00:17:01this high line that Postacoglu's played for a long period.

00:17:04We haven't seen that in recent weeks.

00:17:06We've seen a little bit of a deeper line,

00:17:07and maybe that's because they haven't got, you know,

00:17:09their ideal centre-backs that they want.

00:17:12But I think individual errors, I think,

00:17:14and as you said, individual responsibilities

00:17:16haven't been there for this Tottenham team,

00:17:18and they've really struggled with that.

00:17:19And, I mean, you can see the way their points have fallen

00:17:23this season compared to previous seasons.

00:17:26You look how it's gone over the last decade or so.

00:17:29Obviously, they dropped a bit in 2019-20.

00:17:32Jose Mourinho came in that season.

00:17:34They're now down there.

00:17:36You wonder at the moment,

00:17:38given the players that are available to him,

00:17:40what else he can do, really?

00:17:43Yeah, well, that's it.

00:17:44I mean, they've lost some big players,

00:17:46and those players that are available are lacking form.

00:17:49They're lacking confidence.

00:17:50They're lacking their responsibility to take on,

00:17:53you know, the desire...

00:17:55Not the desire necessarily, but, you know,

00:17:57having the confidence to go and help the team get the points.

00:17:59One win in ten.

00:18:00Five defeats in the last six is nowhere near what Spurs are expecting,

00:18:04and it'll always fall on their minds.

00:18:05But how do they get themselves out of it?

00:18:07Just by hard work.

00:18:08You get in the training.

00:18:09We always say it.

00:18:10Get behind closed doors.

00:18:11Get together.

00:18:12Be a unit.

00:18:13And, you know, sometimes things will fall for you

00:18:15if you're prepared to just work hard and stick at it together.

00:18:18And, you know, it might take one moment just to turn the whole thing around,

00:18:21but they're desperate for it.

00:18:22They are, and I think that's it.

00:18:23I mean, you could look at Everton and, you know,

00:18:25how they were struggling to get those performances.

00:18:28Even just in two games, you've seen a reaction.

00:18:30You've seen a togetherness.

00:18:31You've seen a little bit of fight, a little bit of intensity in their play,

00:18:34and it changes things.

00:18:35I don't think we've seen this in this Tottenham team in recent weeks.

00:18:38I think, you know, it is for individuals.

00:18:39I think certainly the senior players, they have to show more leadership,

00:18:42set the tone for the rest of the team,

00:18:44and I don't think they've done that.

00:18:46Right.

00:18:47Nottingham Forest went into their home game against Southampton,

00:18:50third in the table.

00:18:51It's bringing back some memories.

00:18:56I'm looking forward to the season so much.

00:18:58It's incredible.

00:18:59There is cautious optimism in these parts.

00:19:01We'll give it our best shot.

00:19:03We've had some good results.

00:19:05I think we're on the right line.

00:19:07It's always nice to beat Liverpool for a start.

00:19:09Hudson Adoina shoots!

00:19:10It is a banger!

00:19:12Three points at Heaven.

00:19:13Forest moving on up.

00:19:14And three points at Old Trafford.

00:19:16It's a famous win.

00:19:17It was like old times.

00:19:18A little bit of a fairy tale.

00:19:20Wood!

00:19:21What a finish!

00:19:22Give him the ball.

00:19:23Wood with the header!

00:19:24Just give him it.

00:19:25Wood!

00:19:26He's at it again!

00:19:27The side we've got at the moment is the most promising side we've had for many a year.

00:19:30Scoring goals is our forte.

00:19:32Defending well is our speciality.

00:19:34Oh, what a save!

00:19:35He is a good manager and obsessed with football.

00:19:39At the moment he's enjoying his job.

00:19:42We can challenge Arsenal and Liverpool.

00:19:44There's no reason why we shouldn't.

00:19:46I genuinely believe we can win the first division.

00:19:48We are a good side.

00:19:49We are a good side.

00:19:51Your commentator is Tom Gale.

00:19:54Nuno Espirito Santo refuses to be drawn into talk of European football.

00:19:59Nicholas Dominguez comes in for his 50th club appearance.

00:20:03Chris Wood is one goal shy of matching his career best Premier League season total of 14.

00:20:08Southampton boss, even Juric, wants a more Italian and evil mentality.

00:20:13Their six points as the Premier League's joint lowest ever return after 21 games.

00:20:18Cameron Archer gets a fair start for the new manager.

00:20:21Adam Armstrong replaces the injured Tyler Dibbling.

00:20:28Brie.

00:20:31Almost fell back into the feet of the Japanese midfielder.

00:20:37Williams looks to have overran that.

00:20:40And then Downs makes doubly sure that he doesn't gain any further inroads into the Southampton half.

00:20:47Ivan Juric hoping to avoid becoming the first permanent Southampton manager to lose their opening five league games.

00:20:56Anderson moving at full speed.

00:21:03A wonder strike from Elliot Anderson.

00:21:08His first ever goal for the club.

00:21:12And what a hit this is.

00:21:15No one comes to close down the space.

00:21:19Real positive display there from Anderson.

00:21:21Drive straight at Southampton.

00:21:24And once again, Nottingham Forest strike first in the Premier League.

00:21:28Forest one, Southampton nil.

00:21:32We've seen this tale before.

00:21:35Nottingham Forest conceding possession.

00:21:38But with their very first attempt on goal, they break the deadlock.

00:21:42Taking risks, Southampton playing the ball around.

00:21:51Hudson-Odoi crowd on him to strike it!

00:21:53He's a man who doesn't need much encouragement to hit the ball from that range.

00:22:05The story of Southampton season.

00:22:07A mistake at the back.

00:22:11And they are punished in emphatic fashion.

00:22:15Two shots on target.

00:22:17Two goals.

00:22:18Ruthless from Nottingham Forest.

00:22:20It's the 17th defensive error that Southampton have made this season which has led to a goal for the opposition.

00:22:30Wood.

00:22:32Einer.

00:22:33Einer.

00:22:35Einer's cross for once!

00:22:41Clinical from Nottingham Forest.

00:22:45Three attempts on goal.

00:22:48Three goals and it's their main man Chris Wood with his 14th of the season.

00:22:55Wood starts the move.

00:22:57Travels into the box.

00:23:00Einer picks him out and that's a deft header.

00:23:05He's now matched his career best that he's ever scored in a single season.

00:23:11Nottingham Forest three.

00:23:14Southampton nil.

00:23:18Walker-Peters.

00:23:22A goal back in stoppage time would give Southampton some hope.

00:23:26Heading into the break.

00:23:28Walker-Peters.

00:23:30Away from Jota Silva and Einer.

00:23:33What a goal this could be!

00:23:36Well, we had to wait until the 48th minute.

00:23:40But Southampton finally have a shot at Matt Sells' goal.

00:23:43Lankovic finds Einer who in turn sets the ball into Jota Silva.

00:23:53Einer looks to have bundled over Walker-Peters.

00:23:56Play continues.

00:23:58Wood and Langer!

00:23:59Langer!

00:24:00Gibbs-White!

00:24:03Southampton survive.

00:24:09They're coming together there.

00:24:11Anthony Taylor's happy to play the advantage.

00:24:14Finds Wood.

00:24:15Elanger takes it off him.

00:24:17And a combination of Ramsdale and Bednarek deny Elanger and Gibbs-White.

00:24:23Fernandes has gone down off the ball there.

00:24:33It is a Southampton free-kick.

00:24:40Fernandes takes.

00:24:41Ugechukwu, deflection!

00:24:50Southampton maybe have a way back into this game.

00:24:56It's Leslie Ugechukwu's strike, but it does take a deflection.

00:25:03And it's the captain, Jan Bednarek,

00:25:07with a cute little flick, which completely deceives Matt Sells.

00:25:15Nottingham Forest three, Southampton one.

00:25:21Anderson.

00:25:23Throog to the ground by Fernandes.

00:25:29Silly foul, it has to be said.

00:25:35Alanga's free kick.

00:25:38Met by Milenkovich and spilled by Ramsdale!

00:25:46Embarrassment for the Southampton goalkeeper.

00:25:49He knows he has to do better.

00:25:54VAR are checking for a possible offside.

00:25:58Chris Wood, who doesn't touch the ball, does he, impedes Aaron Ramsdale.

00:26:05So the decision from the VAR, as they recommend an on-field review

00:26:09for what they deem as a subjective offside.

00:26:13Anthony Taylor chalks off Nottingham Forest's fourth goal.

00:26:23Rillo.

00:26:24Well, with Bellis' header.

00:26:29Dominguez sends it back.

00:26:30Jota Silva.

00:26:31Wood!

00:26:33Well, if you'd want the ball to fall to anyone inside the six-yard box

00:26:36in Nottingham Forest colours, it'll be Chris Wood.

00:26:39Onochou unchallenged.

00:26:42Walker-Peters in firmly.

00:26:45Williams is...

00:26:46let out a cry of pain.

00:26:48Both men committed for the ball there.

00:26:56Walker-Peters.

00:27:00Cross comes in.

00:27:01Onochou.

00:27:02Forces the save.

00:27:06Down low from Matt Sells.

00:27:10Difficult one for Sells, but he got enough on it.

00:27:18Manning goes down.

00:27:22Suleymane thought about settling for a free kick,

00:27:26but instead goes past Heiner,

00:27:29and then his cross-con shots.

00:27:32And it's put behind by Sells.

00:27:36And there will be a minimum of 12 minutes of stoppage time.

00:27:41And that has made a number of Nottingham Forest supporters

00:27:46start to feel very uncomfortable.

00:27:50Fernandes' corner.

00:27:52Onochou!

00:27:55It could get really uncomfortable for Nottingham Forest.

00:28:00A first-ever goal in English football

00:28:04for the six-foot-six Paul Onochou.

00:28:10But more importantly, Forest 3, Southampton 2.

00:28:15And they've had very little to shout about this season,

00:28:17Southampton supporters,

00:28:18but maybe, just maybe,

00:28:20under this new manager,

00:28:23they are starting to see the sprouts

00:28:26of what would be a miraculous recovery.

00:28:29Erivo.

00:28:31Uga Chukwu, away from two.

00:28:34Still going.

00:28:36Deflected cross.

00:28:39Southampton corner.

00:28:40A growing sense of belief amongst those in yellow

00:28:46and the away ends.

00:28:49Can they deliver another?

00:28:52Fernandes.

00:28:53Off the line!

00:28:54Nottingham Forest, they're hanging on here.

00:29:05Sosa.

00:29:09Has done really well.

00:29:11And he is fouled by Erivo.

00:29:13But Ole Einar,

00:29:18his outstretched right leg

00:29:21coming between Southampton

00:29:24and a potential point.

00:29:28I think we go really well in the game.

00:29:30We break them,

00:29:32we create a lot of problems

00:29:33and we achieve three goals.

00:29:35It's a comfortable score at half-time.

00:29:37And then a deflection,

00:29:39and more than anything,

00:29:40the stoppage of the game,

00:29:41and too much interruption.

00:29:42And the game didn't flow.

00:29:43That was not help us.

00:29:46Second half,

00:29:47we play with the heart,

00:29:48with the energy,

00:29:48with the intensity.

00:29:49We did two goals.

00:29:51We had other choices to score.

00:29:53And the second half is

00:29:54the way how we have to play.

00:29:57When you picture

00:29:58your first ever Forest goal,

00:29:59it's probably something like that.

00:30:00Pretty spectacular.

00:30:02Yeah, definitely.

00:30:03I think I've been working hard for that.

00:30:04The lads have been telling me to shoot more.

00:30:06So when I sort of got that space,

00:30:08space on goal,

00:30:09I sort of thought,

00:30:09just bang it.

00:30:10So, yeah.

00:30:11I know you don't want to talk about

00:30:12titles qualifying for Europe,

00:30:13but is that maybe an example

00:30:15that some of your players

00:30:16are feeling a little bit of pressure?

00:30:17No, I'm not sure.

00:30:20We have to give credit

00:30:21to our opponent.

00:30:22A team that is in the half-time,

00:30:243-0 down,

00:30:25and we have this reaction.

00:30:27We have to credit them.

00:30:29What did he say?

00:30:30He just thought he'd bang it.

00:30:31Elliot Anderson,

00:30:32his former teammate,

00:30:33the Newcastle,

00:30:33particularly supportive there

00:30:35with a it's about type.

00:30:36He was excellent today.

00:30:37You talked to Forest fans.

00:30:38He's definitely their signing of the season

00:30:42and one of the signings of the season

00:30:44across the league.

00:30:45I think I could agree.

00:30:46I think if you look at the position,

00:30:48not in the Forest,

00:30:49they're in in the league.

00:30:50We spoke about how good defensively they are.

00:30:52We spoke about his transition,

00:30:53the pace they attack with,

00:30:54but I think Anderson in particular

00:30:56in that central area,

00:30:57I think he does both sides of the game

00:30:59really, really well,

00:30:59and we saw that in the game today,

00:31:01and I really enjoyed watching it.

00:31:03You could just see here

00:31:03the positioning he picks up,

00:31:04and he's always wanting to get

00:31:05on the half-turn,

00:31:06face forward,

00:31:07and get his front players

00:31:08moving the ball forward.

00:31:09When he gets into space,

00:31:11he carries the ball,

00:31:12which allows his teammates

00:31:12to get up the pitch

00:31:13to allow more bodies in the box,

00:31:15and he did this constantly.

00:31:17Here he shows the other side,

00:31:18aggressive,

00:31:18gets around the ball,

00:31:19and then when it's back to him again,

00:31:21he likes to travel into that space,

00:31:22give himself time,

00:31:23give his teammates time

00:31:24to get forward,

00:31:25and he goes again.

00:31:26This is his goal.

00:31:27He just reads it really well.

00:31:28Gibbs-Wright is under pressure.

00:31:30He's going to have to lay it off,

00:31:31but when he picks it up,

00:31:33it's his first ball.

00:31:34Carry the ball,

00:31:35and he got his shot away really well.

00:31:36Here again,

00:31:37the composure,

00:31:38defensively,

00:31:39just to settle the play

00:31:39when his team are under

00:31:41a little bit of pressure.

00:31:42He does that really well.

00:31:43Again, defensively here.

00:31:45Doesn't win the first one,

00:31:46but keeps himself

00:31:46in that good position.

00:31:47I spoke about

00:31:48setting his wide players

00:31:49on their way,

00:31:51and this is what he does

00:31:51really well,

00:31:52and Gibbs-Wright

00:31:52gets his team up the pitch,

00:31:53and they attack with pace.

00:31:55Can't play forward here,

00:31:56but what does he do?

00:31:57He lays it off

00:31:58and moves himself

00:31:59again into another position,

00:32:01so he's in a position

00:32:01to play forward.

00:32:03Great positioning.

00:32:04First of all,

00:32:04travel with the ball.

00:32:05If I can't do that,

00:32:06can I play forward?

00:32:07Exquisite passing to Williams,

00:32:08and they should do better here.

00:32:10Something should have been

00:32:11made more of that one,

00:32:12but a really good game,

00:32:13and he gets his goal

00:32:14for Nottingham Forest.

00:32:15There's his touch match,

00:32:16and credit to the Forest

00:32:18coaching staff as well

00:32:19to use him in that role,

00:32:21which wasn't how he's been used

00:32:23before when he was at Newcastle.

00:32:25Yeah, I mean,

00:32:26definitely haven't seen

00:32:26those attributes from him,

00:32:28but we've seen it

00:32:29in his Forest team.

00:32:29He likes to defend,

00:32:30he can break up play,

00:32:31he gets into really good positions

00:32:33in doing that,

00:32:33and he's a forward-thinking player,

00:32:35and, as you say,

00:32:36when you play in a formation

00:32:37and system like Nottingham Forest,

00:32:39it's great to have a player

00:32:40like that that likes

00:32:40to look forward.

00:32:41Got nervy for Forest

00:32:43at the end,

00:32:43but when they were 3-1 up,

00:32:45they thought they'd gone

00:32:454-1 up,

00:32:46and it would have been

00:32:47done and dusted then,

00:32:48but you think this is

00:32:50right to disallow, don't you?

00:32:51I know you don't,

00:32:53but, yeah.

00:32:54Well, that's what I think, Leo.

00:32:55Well, I do, to be honest.

00:32:57I think, you know,

00:32:58Milenkovic thinks he's scored

00:32:59and would have been

00:33:00a real blooper

00:33:00from Aaron Ramsdale,

00:33:02but, you know,

00:33:03Chris Wood is in an offside position,

00:33:04he's affecting Onuachu,

00:33:06who's in that position.

00:33:08Yes,

00:33:08Milenkovic comes across,

00:33:10but I think if you see that

00:33:11Milenkovic would be

00:33:12stepping into that area

00:33:13because, you know,

00:33:15as I say,

00:33:15Milenkovic runs into that area

00:33:17where Onuachu's expected

00:33:18to go and head the ball.

00:33:20Chris Wood's affecting him,

00:33:21he's looking at him

00:33:21over his shoulder,

00:33:22there's a bump,

00:33:22Chris Wood's come around,

00:33:23tries to get involved himself.

00:33:25I do think that it is

00:33:26interfering.

00:33:27Even though Onuachu

00:33:27doesn't even challenge for it.

00:33:28I do, I do,

00:33:29because, you know,

00:33:30he's interfering with him.

00:33:32If he's not there

00:33:33or he's in an offside position,

00:33:34he'll go and head the ball

00:33:35and you might think it's soft,

00:33:36but I think if we're just clear

00:33:38with that across the line

00:33:39that if you're offside position

00:33:40and you're getting interfered,

00:33:41it's going to be...

00:33:41It did save

00:33:42on Ramsdale's blushes, though.

00:33:43It did.

00:33:44You agree with him?

00:33:45I did agree.

00:33:45I think he does interfere with play.

00:33:47I was asking the question

00:33:48because at first,

00:33:49when I was watching it live,

00:33:50I actually thought

00:33:51he's come from that offside position

00:33:52and I did think

00:33:53he affected defenders' decision-making

00:33:55in challenging.

00:33:57OK.

00:33:57It will.

00:33:59Forest last season

00:34:00struggled a little bit

00:34:01on set-pieces.

00:34:03Defending set-pieces.

00:34:04This season,

00:34:04they've been fantastic defensively,

00:34:06but Southampton did cause

00:34:07some problems this afternoon.

00:34:09Yeah, they did.

00:34:10And mainly in the second half,

00:34:12I think they made a few changes,

00:34:13Southampton,

00:34:14and I think the only way

00:34:15they were going to open

00:34:16this Forest team up

00:34:17would be from a set-piece.

00:34:19And you can see a shot

00:34:20from the edge of the box.

00:34:22Takes a bit of a deflection

00:34:23and it goes in.

00:34:25And it was just putting

00:34:25balls into the box.

00:34:26They started to get

00:34:27a little bit of a height advantage

00:34:28and balls that went in,

00:34:30they were getting first contacts in,

00:34:31wasn't really impacting.

00:34:33But this one here,

00:34:34I mean,

00:34:34at this stage,

00:34:35I must add that they took

00:34:37their main headers in wood

00:34:38and Gibbs right off the pitch

00:34:40and it's a great header.

00:34:42And Nottingham Forest

00:34:43would have wanted to do better.

00:34:44This is a great clearance,

00:34:45by the way.

00:34:45It is.

00:34:46I mean,

00:34:47another day,

00:34:47this goes into the back

00:34:48of the net for Southampton

00:34:49and Forest would have,

00:34:50you know,

00:34:52would have been kicking himself

00:34:52because they were in control

00:34:53of the game.

00:34:54It wasn't,

00:34:55I said,

00:34:55until the second half

00:34:56that they got a few set-pieces

00:34:58that they caused a few problems

00:34:59for Nottingham Forest.

00:35:00They won't want

00:35:01that to slip back

00:35:02into their game.

00:35:04There's two good clues,

00:35:05this from Aina,

00:35:06in a week,

00:35:06that one,

00:35:07and against Liverpool

00:35:07during the week as well.

00:35:09Is this a mischievous stat

00:35:11to end with?

00:35:14Which I'm going to keep...

00:35:16It's also mischievous

00:35:16and worth waiting for.

00:35:20Yeah,

00:35:20I think just about.

00:35:22I mean,

00:35:22you know,

00:35:23the same points

00:35:24and a great position.

00:35:25I think Leicester

00:35:26were fortunate

00:35:27in the sense that

00:35:28everybody had an off-season.

00:35:30Everybody opened the door

00:35:31for Leicester to go through.

00:35:32Liverpool aren't doing that

00:35:33at the moment.

00:35:33Liverpool aren't...

00:35:34They've got themselves

00:35:35into a great position,

00:35:36points ahead.

00:35:37I don't think

00:35:38Nottingham Forest fans

00:35:38are thinking about

00:35:40winning the League of the Mart.

00:35:41They're really enjoying

00:35:41the thought of

00:35:42European qualification

00:35:43and rightly so.

00:35:44They deserve it

00:35:45from what they've achieved

00:35:46up to this point

00:35:47in this season.

00:35:48There's still a few games to go.

00:35:49They have to complete the task.

00:35:50And now the death

00:35:51of Manchester United legend

00:35:53Dennis Law

00:35:54was announced on Friday.

00:35:55Ahead of United's

00:35:56home game

00:35:57against Brighton,

00:35:57fans gathered

00:35:58to pay their respects.

00:35:59You can't get a name

00:36:04like the King

00:36:05and not be the King.

00:36:06You know,

00:36:06they don't give that name

00:36:07to anybody.

00:36:08You have to be

00:36:08a special individual.

00:36:10And Dennis showed that.

00:36:12He showed he was

00:36:12a special man.

00:36:13Brilliant.

00:36:14Brilliant.

00:36:14Just great watching him.

00:36:16Best header of ball

00:36:17ever I've seen.

00:36:18It's wonderful

00:36:18that we can be here

00:36:19to pay our respects

00:36:21to Dennis Law.

00:36:22Fabulous footballer.

00:36:24And, you know,

00:36:24he was united

00:36:25and we were just

00:36:26so lucky to have him

00:36:27as on our team.

00:36:29The most brilliant

00:36:30finisher

00:36:30I've ever seen

00:36:32and that was Dennis.

00:36:33And we'll never see

00:36:35anyone like Dennis again.

00:36:38I'm an Aberdeenu

00:36:39and growing up

00:36:40he was

00:36:41everyone's hero.

00:36:43Yes.

00:36:43So,

00:36:44just wanted to say

00:36:45as an exiled

00:36:46Aberdeenu

00:36:47rest easy.

00:36:48He'll be remembered

00:36:49with Georgie

00:36:50and Bobby Child

00:36:51for many years

00:36:52and years to come.

00:36:54You know,

00:36:54you name it,

00:36:55Dennis was,

00:36:56had scored them goals.

00:36:58It was,

00:36:59and his leap

00:36:59for such a

00:37:00slight,

00:37:02small person

00:37:02was unbelievable.

00:37:04He was superb.

00:37:05The best thing was

00:37:06that he was

00:37:06such a wonderful person.

00:37:08For me,

00:37:10his sense of humour

00:37:11and everything,

00:37:12it just stands out

00:37:13that what a fantastic

00:37:14guy he was.

00:37:16Eric was the second king

00:37:17but Dennis

00:37:18was the first king

00:37:19and he always will be.

00:37:21Thank you,

00:37:22Dennis.

00:37:23You're a star.

00:37:24Guy Mowbray

00:37:30was this old traffic.

00:37:33Another

00:37:34of the greats

00:37:35has gone

00:37:35and it's not only

00:37:37Manchester

00:37:37in mourning.

00:37:40Dennis Law

00:37:40was revered

00:37:41the world over.

00:37:42Children were named

00:37:42after him

00:37:43including famously

00:37:44one Dennis Bergkamp.

00:37:47He leaves

00:37:48quite a legacy

00:37:49as the United

00:37:50Trinity

00:37:51are reunited.

00:37:52It was 61 years ago

00:37:55yesterday

00:37:55that Law,

00:37:57Best and Charlton

00:37:58played together

00:37:59for the club

00:38:00for the very first time.

00:38:03Ryan Kidd,

00:38:06Paddy Carreran,

00:38:06Sir Alex Ferguson

00:38:08and Sir Alex Ferguson

00:38:09will now once again

00:38:12take to the Old Trafford field

00:38:13and the whole of the ground

00:38:16will stand,

00:38:18remember

00:38:20and give thanks

00:38:21for

00:38:21the king,

00:38:23the lawman.

00:38:24Ruben Amorim

00:38:41makes three changes

00:38:42to his starting line-up

00:38:43for this one

00:38:44with Harry Maguire

00:38:44back at the start

00:38:45in place of

00:38:46Lissandra Martinez.

00:38:47Diogo Dalot

00:38:48returns from a ban

00:38:49and Joshua Xerxi

00:38:50takes his turn up front

00:38:52rather than

00:38:52Rasmus Hoyland

00:38:53and with something

00:38:54to prove

00:38:54after Amorim's

00:38:55admission

00:38:56that his team

00:38:57has a lack of goals

00:38:58and a lack of threat.

00:39:00For Brighton

00:39:01also three changes

00:39:02with one of their

00:39:03main threats

00:39:03being one of United's own.

00:39:05Danny Welbeck

00:39:05back in

00:39:06having scored

00:39:07four times here

00:39:08since leaving

00:39:08over a decade ago.

00:39:10Twice for Brighton,

00:39:11twice for Arsenal.

00:39:12Louis Dunk and

00:39:13Yankouba Minta

00:39:14also coming

00:39:15to the Seagulls' side.

00:39:18Brighton

00:39:19who've got

00:39:19a really good

00:39:20recent record

00:39:21against Manchester United.

00:39:22They've won

00:39:23five

00:39:23of the last

00:39:24six Premier League

00:39:25meetings.

00:39:27Under pressure.

00:39:29There is the clear

00:39:30safe route

00:39:30back to Onana.

00:39:32He's been closed.

00:39:33The pressure is told

00:39:34for Brighton

00:39:34in João Pedro.

00:39:36João Pedro

00:39:37stings it across

00:39:38and

00:39:38Onana

00:39:39got his gloves

00:39:40to it.

00:39:41Came back off

00:39:42Welbeck.

00:39:43It's going to be

00:39:43a goal kick.

00:39:44Hit it hard.

00:39:45Cause a problem.

00:39:47On another day

00:39:47it might well

00:39:48have gone in.

00:39:51The memory

00:39:51has spoken of

00:39:52his team's need

00:39:53to control games.

00:39:55Put their stamp

00:39:56on the proceedings

00:39:57rather than

00:39:58only playing better

00:39:59when they don't

00:40:00have much of the ball

00:40:01against teams

00:40:03that are in better form.

00:40:06That's a wonderful

00:40:06ball over the top

00:40:07for Mitoma

00:40:08and a great touch too

00:40:09and he sets up

00:40:10the chance

00:40:10which is taken.

00:40:13Minta scores

00:40:14for Brighton

00:40:15made by Mitoma.

00:40:18Manchester United

00:40:19behind at home again.

00:40:21Brighton leading

00:40:22in Old Trafford again.

00:40:25The lever

00:40:26who plays it

00:40:28for Mitoma

00:40:29to run onto.

00:40:30Masraoui

00:40:30was caught

00:40:31napping there.

00:40:33Mitoma had a

00:40:34simple task.

00:40:35Well a simple choice.

00:40:36Go for goal himself

00:40:37for playing Minta

00:40:39for the easier

00:40:39opportunity.

00:40:41And it's

00:40:41Manchester United

00:40:42nil.

00:40:42Reinenhove

00:40:43Albion 1.

00:40:47So many problems

00:40:48for him to solve.

00:40:52Amat.

00:40:52Zerksy tries to

00:41:08hit it cleanly enough.

00:41:10Amat again

00:41:11instrumental

00:41:12in all of the good

00:41:13things that

00:41:14Manchester United

00:41:14are doing.

00:41:17Zerksy

00:41:17plays it back to

00:41:18Bruno Fernandes.

00:41:19Amat goes in.

00:41:20Estepinian with him.

00:41:21Zerksy tries to

00:41:22charge in too.

00:41:24Brighton struggling

00:41:25to clear.

00:41:26It is De Ligt

00:41:27and it hits

00:41:28Meynou.

00:41:32There's the dialogue

00:41:33going on between

00:41:34Fabian Herzler

00:41:34and

00:41:35Jonas Schauermann.

00:41:39They're Bruggen.

00:41:40Oh that was too

00:41:41risky.

00:41:41And they've won it.

00:41:42Zerksy.

00:41:43Zerksy goes down.

00:41:45And that's not a penalty

00:41:45either is it?

00:41:46Yes it is.

00:41:49Seem to stop

00:41:49and think for a moment.

00:41:51Just bored himself

00:41:52a few seconds

00:41:52to Peter Banks.

00:41:54But it did seem

00:41:55as though Zerksy

00:41:56was impeded

00:41:57by Carlos Belieber.

00:42:00And the arm

00:42:01came around the

00:42:02neck of

00:42:03Zerksy here.

00:42:07So Manchester United

00:42:08through their captain

00:42:10to have the chance

00:42:12to make it 1-1.

00:42:16Fernandes scores.

00:42:19Manchester United

00:42:20are given assistance

00:42:21by their visitors

00:42:22to get back

00:42:23into the game.

00:42:25Fernandes has a look

00:42:26just checks

00:42:27to see

00:42:28which way

00:42:29of Ebruggen's

00:42:30body weight

00:42:30he's going to go

00:42:31and simply passes

00:42:32it the other way.

00:42:34Manchester United

00:42:341-1.

00:42:35Brighton 1-1.

00:42:37Bruno Fernandes

00:42:37penalties.

00:42:39Like Luke Littler

00:42:39at playing darts.

00:42:41Bullseye.

00:42:42Pedro's touch

00:42:47to Danny Welbeck.

00:42:50Welbeck down

00:42:51and the referee

00:42:52does blow his whistle.

00:42:55Which part of all this

00:42:56was the foul?

00:42:57There's the barge from

00:42:59Maynou

00:42:59propelling Welbeck

00:43:01into Maguire.

00:43:02It wasn't a shoulder

00:43:03barge

00:43:03it was from behind.

00:43:06I guess in

00:43:06Hayari

00:43:06he's going to take

00:43:07the free kick.

00:43:08Murray gives the signal

00:43:10and then slips.

00:43:12It still might work

00:43:13for Brighton.

00:43:13There's João Pedro

00:43:14bringing it down.

00:43:15João Pedro is in

00:43:16and Brighton have scored.

00:43:18Having made an almighty

00:43:20mess of the free kick

00:43:21Manchester United's

00:43:23defence found itself

00:43:25in a mess.

00:43:26João Pedro

00:43:27the scorer

00:43:29of a curious goal.

00:43:32Well there are the runners

00:43:32and as the kick is struck

00:43:34Bruno Fernandes

00:43:35was playing everybody

00:43:36onside.

00:43:38Manchester United

00:43:38arms in the air.

00:43:40They couldn't get

00:43:40the ball away

00:43:41and it came so kindly

00:43:43to João Pedro.

00:43:452-1 Brighton

00:43:46if it stands.

00:43:48It's been checked

00:43:49for a possible foul

00:43:50in the build-up

00:43:51and I think Peter Banks

00:43:52is going to be asked

00:43:54to go across

00:43:54and have a look

00:43:55for himself.

00:43:56It will be his decision.

00:43:59Well I think

00:44:00anywhere else on the field

00:44:01that would be given

00:44:02as a foul

00:44:03so no difference here.

00:44:06Van Hecker kicks

00:44:07Dalloe's boot

00:44:08not the ball.

00:44:10No goal.

00:44:11Not a shock.

00:44:13It stays 1-1.

00:44:15And although that

00:44:16took a bit of time

00:44:17that is one of those

00:44:18where VAR

00:44:19is used

00:44:20to its proper purpose.

00:44:25Ayari

00:44:27Stugate

00:44:29Minter

00:44:33down her

00:44:35Minter puts the ball

00:44:36in

00:44:36that one will count

00:44:38Brighton now do

00:44:40have the lead

00:44:41Mitoma

00:44:42pokes the ball

00:44:44over the line

00:44:45well he now is

00:44:48the all-time

00:45:01Mitoma

00:45:02kept his eyes

00:45:03on the Minter

00:45:04ball in

00:45:05just had to make

00:45:06sure he stretched

00:45:07and won the race

00:45:07with Masraoui

00:45:08he's done that

00:45:08and Brighton are

00:45:09winning the game

00:45:51of Andrea

00:45:52Onana's

00:45:53horrendous

00:45:53error

00:45:54that's not

00:45:55the stuffing

00:45:56out of those

00:45:58in red shirts

00:45:58and those

00:46:00supporting the

00:46:01team in red shirts

00:46:02at Old Trafford

00:46:02it's more or less

00:46:04a pass for

00:46:05Onana to gather

00:46:06greasy ball

00:46:07it's no excuse

00:46:09it just pops

00:46:12out

00:46:12Manchester United

00:46:14won

00:46:14Brighton

00:46:15three

00:46:15it's another

00:46:17defeat

00:46:17for Manchester

00:46:18United

00:46:19it is not

00:46:20acceptable

00:46:21to lose so many

00:46:22games in Premier League

00:46:23especially if you are

00:46:24in Manchester United

00:46:25no matter the situation

00:46:26no matter the moment

00:46:27this should not

00:46:29be settled

00:46:30mistakes happen

00:46:31but they keep

00:46:32happening

00:46:32how do you

00:46:33stop them happening

00:46:34why do they keep

00:46:35on happening

00:46:35I don't know

00:46:36we need to be better

00:46:37I think that is

00:46:38that is really clear

00:46:40it doesn't matter

00:46:41if we have

00:46:42a lot of

00:46:43time to train

00:46:44if I know the players

00:46:45or not

00:46:46it's not acceptable

00:46:47we need to change

00:46:48that

00:46:48so we

00:46:50are continuing

00:46:51to work

00:46:52and

00:46:52to change

00:46:54these details

00:46:55that can change

00:46:55the game

00:46:56mistakes are part

00:46:56of football

00:46:57and you're gonna do

00:46:58it

00:46:58you're gonna make it

00:46:58and that's okay

00:47:00but the thing is

00:47:01like you need to have

00:47:02the braveness

00:47:02to get back

00:47:03and do it again

00:47:04and do it again

00:47:05we're even talking

00:47:06too much about

00:47:06difficult to play

00:47:07Old Trafford

00:47:08how is possible

00:47:09that Man United

00:47:10has difficult to play

00:47:11at home ground

00:47:13with the atmosphere

00:47:14that we have

00:47:14we can't put

00:47:15all these things up

00:47:17to make excuses

00:47:20of not winning games

00:47:21and not being brave

00:47:22enough to do the things

00:47:23we had a good structure

00:47:24in the game

00:47:24we had

00:47:26not big chances

00:47:27but I think we were

00:47:28always a danger

00:47:29for them

00:47:30and then we changed

00:47:31more things

00:47:32in the half time

00:47:32and then especially

00:47:33in the second half

00:47:33we were very stable

00:47:35against the ball

00:47:36we had a good structure

00:47:37in possession

00:47:37and in the end

00:47:39I think we deserved to win

00:47:40I thought we started well

00:47:41and then

00:47:41lost a bit of our shape

00:47:43and structure

00:47:44and they obviously

00:47:45got the goal back

00:47:46and poor goal

00:47:47to give away

00:47:48but the way we play

00:47:49sometimes that happens

00:47:50and we showed a great reaction

00:47:51from that moment

00:47:52to get back in the game

00:47:53raise the intensity

00:47:54and we've had three

00:47:56massive games this week

00:47:57and three wins

00:47:57in this big week

00:47:58Well both Duncan

00:48:00and Herzl

00:48:00talked about structure

00:48:02and tactically

00:48:03they got it spot on

00:48:05today

00:48:05didn't they

00:48:06particularly out wide

00:48:07Yeah they did

00:48:07and maybe they identified

00:48:09some weaknesses

00:48:09in this Manchester United

00:48:10back 5-3-5

00:48:12however you see it

00:48:13and used their wide players

00:48:14to really exploit that

00:48:15and you can see

00:48:16right from the off

00:48:17what the intent was

00:48:19from the Brighton wide players

00:48:20Matoma

00:48:21and Minter

00:48:22stretching

00:48:23or trying to make runs

00:48:24from out to in

00:48:26you can see

00:48:26getting between

00:48:27you can see

00:48:28Euro getting

00:48:28and De Ligt

00:48:30getting in wrong positions here

00:48:31and leaving massive gaps

00:48:32between full backs

00:48:33and your main centre

00:48:34centre half

00:48:35and it just opened up

00:48:36the gap from Matoma

00:48:37to run into

00:48:38you can see him again

00:48:39really on the touchline

00:48:40and then getting beyond

00:48:41the back line

00:48:42and look at

00:48:42Manchester United's line

00:48:44disjointed

00:48:44and what you want

00:48:45from your opposite wide player

00:48:46when your winger

00:48:47on the other side

00:48:48is on the ball

00:48:49is for them

00:48:49to make up the box

00:48:50and they do just that

00:48:51it wasn't just

00:48:52the in-possession stuff

00:48:53that was good about

00:48:54both of the wide players today

00:48:55and you can see

00:48:57Minter here

00:48:57he's not giving up

00:48:58this chase

00:48:59and getting back

00:48:59and making a tackle

00:49:00here on Dalo

00:49:01and winning the ball

00:49:02back for his team

00:49:03and then getting up

00:49:04the pitch

00:49:05and the same on the opposite

00:49:06Matoma

00:49:07you know

00:49:07the ball goes past him

00:49:08he thought his teammate

00:49:09had good possession

00:49:10he didn't

00:49:10but he fights to win it back

00:49:11and then just settles

00:49:12the play for Brighton

00:49:14and they go again

00:49:14here's what I really like

00:49:19tries to win it

00:49:20he doesn't win the first one

00:49:21but what he does

00:49:21he stays on it

00:49:22allows his team

00:49:23to get behind the ball

00:49:24and reshape

00:49:25and then

00:49:25as we said

00:49:26Minter on the other side

00:49:27I mean this is

00:49:28an unbelievable interception

00:49:29reading the danger

00:49:30getting back into a good position

00:49:32and sensing that

00:49:33and then

00:49:34what his teammate

00:49:35did for him in the first half

00:49:36Minter

00:49:36he thought he'd do the same

00:49:37for Matoma

00:49:39on the opposite

00:49:40and cuts back on the left

00:49:41and just leaves the ball

00:49:42into a great area

00:49:43and what I said before

00:49:44what you want

00:49:45from the opposite

00:49:45wide player

00:49:46when your wingers

00:49:47on the ball

00:49:48is to make up

00:49:49the back post

00:49:49and they do that

00:49:50but look at this graphic

00:49:51I think it

00:49:52basically shows you

00:49:54how good both of those

00:49:55wide players were

00:49:56in terms of

00:49:56distance covered

00:49:57and areas

00:49:58they got themselves into

00:49:59well even though

00:49:59they played as a back forward

00:50:00but the wingers

00:50:01virtually performed

00:50:02as wing backs

00:50:02when you see

00:50:03all those different places

00:50:04where they touch the ball

00:50:06after the game

00:50:08Ruben Amirim

00:50:09expanded a little bit more

00:50:10in his press conference

00:50:12about Manchester United

00:50:13and some of these quotes

00:50:14are all over social media

00:50:16and will be all over

00:50:17the papers

00:50:17in the morning as well

00:50:19this is what he had to say

00:50:20in 10 games in Premier League

00:50:23we won two

00:50:24I know that

00:50:25imagine what is

00:50:27is this for a

00:50:28for a fan of Manchester United

00:50:30imagine what is this for me

00:50:32so we

00:50:33we are getting

00:50:34a new coach

00:50:35that is losing more

00:50:36than the last coach

00:50:37I have

00:50:38full knowledge of that

00:50:40like I said

00:50:41I'm not going to change

00:50:43no matter what

00:50:43and I know

00:50:44we can succeed

00:50:46but we need to survive

00:50:47this moment

00:50:48because I'm not naive

00:50:49and I know that

00:50:50we need to survive now

00:50:52so

00:50:53we are

00:50:54being the worst team

00:50:56maybe

00:50:56in the history of

00:50:57Manchester United

00:50:58I know that you want

00:50:59headlines

00:51:00but I'm seeing that

00:51:02because

00:51:03we

00:51:04we have to acknowledge that

00:51:05and

00:51:06to change that

00:51:08so

00:51:08here we go

00:51:10your headlines

00:51:11well that will certainly

00:51:13be the headline

00:51:14we are the

00:51:15the worst team

00:51:15maybe in the history

00:51:16of Manchester United

00:51:18he's trying to fire them up

00:51:20any which way he can

00:51:21isn't he

00:51:22yeah I mean

00:51:23it's a really bold statement

00:51:24I mean

00:51:25to say that

00:51:26they're the worst ever

00:51:27in the Premier League

00:51:27it's a team

00:51:28the starting team today

00:51:29got 391 million

00:51:30they've got 341 caps

00:51:32between

00:51:33these are

00:51:33some experienced players

00:51:34that some of them

00:51:35you know

00:51:36are still young

00:51:37five summer signings

00:51:38cost 182 million

00:51:39that they've just brought in

00:51:41so

00:51:41they're trying to strengthen

00:51:42it's not working

00:51:43they need to find a way

00:51:44I personally

00:51:45wouldn't enjoy

00:51:46being called out like this

00:51:48it would probably fire me up

00:51:49which is probably the intent

00:51:50but

00:51:50nobody wants to be known

00:51:51as the worst team

00:51:52that's ever played

00:51:54for a certain football club

00:51:55and

00:51:55you know

00:51:56that's a really bold

00:51:56probably an honest

00:51:57and probably right on the mark

00:51:58statement

00:51:59there are probably

00:52:00a lot of fans

00:52:00who will agree with them

00:52:01particularly

00:52:02the ones who were there today

00:52:03because

00:52:03you know

00:52:04at times

00:52:05they looked a right shower

00:52:06didn't they

00:52:07yeah

00:52:07they definitely did

00:52:08and

00:52:09certainly defensively

00:52:10you can't argue

00:52:11with some of the quotes

00:52:12that he's come out with

00:52:13but

00:52:13I think the back five

00:52:15stroke three

00:52:16however we see it

00:52:17in particular

00:52:18you can see right from the off

00:52:20I mean

00:52:20the intent they're at home

00:52:21we're at Old Trafford here

00:52:22against Brighton

00:52:23and

00:52:23yes it's a

00:52:24it's a kick off

00:52:26it's only Xerxes

00:52:26that wants to go

00:52:27Maguire

00:52:28you know

00:52:28challenges the first

00:52:29no intent to get up the pitch

00:52:31and close the second balls down

00:52:32but you can already see

00:52:33Yoro here

00:52:34wants to go in on

00:52:35Pedro

00:52:36which

00:52:37in doing that

00:52:38is working into

00:52:39into Brighton's hands

00:52:40we just spoke about it before

00:52:41wide players wanting to

00:52:42run into that space

00:52:43that they leave

00:52:44and they did it all afternoon

00:52:45and this Manchester United

00:52:46back five

00:52:47you see it here again

00:52:48Yoro going right in on Pedro

00:52:49you've got Welbeck

00:52:50as your other number ten

00:52:51that starts as a striker

00:52:53and drops into that ten position

00:52:54you've got De Litt

00:52:55half an eye on him

00:52:57do I go

00:52:57don't I go

00:52:58Yoro we see is still in there

00:52:59De Litt wants to go in

00:53:00what that does

00:53:01is create a massive gap

00:53:02between the back three

00:53:03and then the space

00:53:05that Brighton were looking for

00:53:06all afternoon

00:53:06just opens up for them

00:53:08and I think

00:53:08defensively

00:53:09Lyon they were all over the place

00:53:11this Manchester United

00:53:11back five

00:53:12yeah I mean that was

00:53:13that one was a simple goal

00:53:14but you know

00:53:15you get in at half time

00:53:16you come out in the second half

00:53:17has anything changed

00:53:18well

00:53:18no I mean

00:53:19this is a team

00:53:20we've just showed

00:53:21centre-halves are trying

00:53:22to learn their new role

00:53:23they're trying to step in

00:53:24they're wondering

00:53:24whether it's going or not

00:53:25there's absolutely no pressure

00:53:27on the ball

00:53:27what are they expecting

00:53:28if they're going to try

00:53:29and step in

00:53:30and going to be aggressive

00:53:31that front lot in front

00:53:32the front five in front

00:53:33have got to pressurise

00:53:35the ball a lot better

00:53:35they can't get beat that easy

00:53:37the back five's getting criticised

00:53:39because they're not keeping

00:53:40efforts out

00:53:41it's a team thing

00:53:42the people in front of them

00:53:44just aren't closing down

00:53:45we just talked about

00:53:46Everton earlier in the show

00:53:47starting aggressively

00:53:48putting the opposition

00:53:48on the front foot

00:53:49on the back foot

00:53:50Manchester United

00:53:52aren't doing anything like that

00:53:53they're just

00:53:54they're so easy to play against

00:53:56at the moment

00:53:57and they make individual mistakes

00:53:58yeah it's a big pitch

00:53:59and they allow that

00:54:00and then they tie themselves out

00:54:01and then you make dreadful errors

00:54:02like that

00:54:03so if it's going wrong

00:54:03at one end of the pitch

00:54:04you're not able to sort it

00:54:05at the other

00:54:06and then you're making

00:54:06huge mistakes as well

00:54:07it's making them look dreadful

00:54:09but you mentioned

00:54:10you know

00:54:11go back to the start

00:54:12and Everton

00:54:12and they haven't played that

00:54:13and they've played that

00:54:14and they knew what

00:54:16they were doing

00:54:16he's not asking them

00:54:18to be nuclear physicists

00:54:19he's asking them

00:54:20to switch from a back four

00:54:21to a back three

00:54:21how hard can it be?

00:54:23I'm not saying it is

00:54:24but they'll not

00:54:24it shouldn't be

00:54:25genuinely is it hard?

00:54:27it's different

00:54:27it shouldn't be this hard

00:54:29but if you're not prepared

00:54:30to run round the pitch

00:54:31you're not closing down

00:54:32I mean

00:54:33they were so off it today

00:54:34they allowed a team

00:54:35of Brighton's quality

00:54:36to come and knock the ball around

00:54:37and get into the game

00:54:38they sat off so much

00:54:40what are you expecting

00:54:40that that kind of team

00:54:41will take you apart?

00:54:42a disconnect what?

00:54:43between the units?

00:54:43yeah between the units

00:54:45between the understanding

00:54:46between the back three

00:54:48and maybe your wing backs

00:54:49when to go

00:54:49when not to go

00:54:50and then your midfield two

00:54:52the distances between

00:54:53the midfield two

00:54:53and the three

00:54:54and in the back line

00:54:55and then you saw at times

00:54:56Bruno, Gannaccio

00:54:57at times getting frustrated

00:54:58and chasing areas

00:54:59that they shouldn't be

00:55:00that disconnects

00:55:01the whole team

00:55:01and we saw it throughout

00:55:02and Leon mentioned

00:55:03he probably will blame

00:55:05the back five

00:55:05but I think what happens

00:55:07in front obviously affects that

00:55:08and I think the disconnect

00:55:09is there

00:55:10but I can understand

00:55:11why he'd say

00:55:12it's the worst team

00:55:12because as you say

00:55:14Everton have made

00:55:14a small change

00:55:15and have been able

00:55:16to connect quickly

00:55:17they've been doing

00:55:17this now for ten games

00:55:18and it doesn't seem

00:55:20to be much improvement

00:55:21okay we can say

00:55:22the Liverpool game

00:55:22and the Arsenal Cup game

00:55:24but apart from that

00:55:25there's not much

00:55:26of an improvement

00:55:26alright after dropping

00:55:28points at Brentford

00:55:29on Tuesday night

00:55:30Manchester City

00:57:00ball into Erling Haaland

00:57:02and Haaland

00:57:03Walton with the save

00:57:04and most people

00:57:06would have backed

00:57:07on the goal

00:57:07not Walton

00:57:10well

00:57:14at least nine times

00:57:15out of ten

00:57:16you'd expect

00:57:16Erling Haaland

00:57:17to put that away

00:57:18Calvin Phillips

00:57:21ineligible today

00:57:22of course

00:57:33here

00:57:33Foden

00:57:39and

00:57:40Gundogan

00:57:42might have been

00:57:43in an offside

00:57:43position

00:57:44if he'd controlled

00:57:47that and swivelled

00:57:48he could have

01:00:55of half time

01:00:57Manchester City

01:01:27Edison

01:01:27has just about

01:01:29grabbed the rebound

01:01:30from what was a

01:01:30decent save

01:01:31Edison stopped it

01:01:33and then just took a

01:01:34moment to clutch it

01:01:36Manchester City

01:01:38haven't won a

01:01:39Premier League game

01:01:40this season

01:01:40by a margin

01:01:42of greater than

01:01:43three goals

01:01:44here's Doku

01:01:47great little run by

01:01:51Doku

01:01:51and it's 4-0

01:01:52well Ipswich

01:01:55almost pull one

01:01:56back at one end

01:01:59of an eye

01:01:59Jeremy Doku

01:02:01extends

01:02:02Manchester City's lead

01:02:04at the other end

01:02:04there's a big old

01:02:06deflection

01:02:07off the boot

01:02:07of O'Shea

01:02:08Jack Clark

01:02:14they had moments

01:02:17in the first half

01:02:18Ipswich

01:02:19and Doku finds

01:02:23Haaland

01:02:24and Manchester City

01:02:26are 5-0 up

01:02:27well you feel

01:02:29for them

01:02:30Jack Clark

01:02:31and Ipswich

01:02:32collectively

01:02:33because they are

01:02:35in danger of getting

01:02:36absolutely hammered

01:02:37here

01:02:38particularly if they

01:02:39keep making errors

01:02:40like that

01:02:41this is now

01:02:44jointly

01:02:45the biggest

01:02:46Premier League

01:02:47win of the season

01:02:47for anybody

01:02:48strangely

01:02:49all the 5-0

01:02:51victories have been

01:02:52for away teams

01:02:53Spurs won 5-0

01:02:54at Southampton

01:02:55Liverpool won 5-0

01:02:57at West Ham

01:02:57Manchester City

01:02:59a 5-0 up

01:03:00at Ipswich

01:03:00and County

01:03:01Guardiola

01:03:06Kovacic

01:03:11McAtee

01:03:11made a little run

01:03:12and finishes it

01:03:13beautifully

01:03:14as such a good goal

01:03:18lots of head shaking

01:03:21going on for Ipswich

01:03:22bewitched

01:03:23bothered

01:03:24and bewildered

01:03:25and 6-0 down

01:03:27the delivery

01:03:29from Kovacic

01:03:30is absolutely

01:03:32beautiful

01:03:32and the finish

01:03:33is sublime

01:03:34well that is a goal

01:03:36that there's being

01:03:38watched again

01:03:39and again

01:03:39and is getting

01:03:41high praise

01:03:42from the king

01:03:43of goalscorers

01:03:43it is the biggest

01:03:45Premier League win

01:03:46for anybody

01:03:48this season

01:03:48a long time

01:03:51didn't happen

01:03:51I'll be honest

01:03:52so we got

01:03:53some good results

01:03:54lately

01:03:54but our game

01:03:56was not

01:03:56I would say

01:03:57like today

01:03:58and the most important

01:03:59thing of course

01:04:00the result

01:04:00it is

01:04:01to climb a little bit

01:04:03to the table

01:04:03to try

01:04:04because of the

01:04:04qualification

01:04:04for the Champions League

01:04:06and I think

01:04:06the players today

01:04:07they put many

01:04:08many things

01:04:09and hopefully

01:04:09they can be

01:04:10in the beginning

01:04:11a little bit

01:04:12to recognise

01:04:12ourselves

01:04:13and attain

01:04:13to win or lose

01:04:14games

01:04:15and recognise

01:04:15ourselves

01:04:16who we were

01:04:17yeah painful game

01:04:18for us

01:04:18beaten by

01:04:21a world class

01:04:22side

01:04:23and we weren't

01:04:24at our best

01:04:24they were

01:04:25outstanding

01:04:26and when that's

01:04:28the case

01:04:29the golf between

01:04:30us was too much

01:04:30on the day

01:04:31I'm really delighted

01:04:32with the outcome

01:04:33of the game

01:04:34I thought

01:04:35throughout the full game

01:04:36we controlled it

01:04:36really well

01:04:37and look back

01:04:39to ourselves

01:04:39in terms of

01:04:40the possession

01:04:40that we had

01:04:41the build up play

01:04:42I'm really happy

01:04:43with the performance

01:04:44and hopefully

01:04:45we can continue

01:04:46now like this

01:04:46and not drop

01:04:47off again

01:04:48so

01:04:48it can only be

01:04:49a positive

01:04:50winning like this

01:04:50difficult afternoon

01:04:53for Ipswich

01:04:53as far as

01:04:54City are concerned

01:04:56signs

01:04:57within their

01:04:59performance

01:04:59that

01:05:00they're getting

01:05:01back to somewhere

01:05:02where they want

01:05:02to be

01:05:03yeah I think

01:05:04Phil Foden

01:05:04Pep both said

01:05:05it felt more

01:05:06like City performance

01:05:07Pep said in his

01:05:08words

01:05:09they started to do

01:05:10things that have

01:05:10defined the team

01:05:11for the last 10 years

01:05:12they started to do

01:05:13them again

01:05:13and I think that was

01:05:14mainly down to

01:05:15what they did

01:05:17with the wide

01:05:17men I think

01:05:17for the majority

01:05:18of performances

01:05:19this season

01:05:20they've allowed

01:05:21this to happen

01:05:21they've played

01:05:22the ball to

01:05:23the Doku

01:05:23or Savino

01:05:24on the other

01:05:25side of the

01:05:25pitch

01:05:25and they've all

01:05:26kind of left

01:05:27him to try

01:05:27and get on

01:05:27with it

01:05:28and see

01:05:28what they can

01:05:29do

01:05:29and that's

01:05:30how this

01:05:30game started

01:05:31as well

01:05:31people getting

01:05:32into the

01:05:33penalty

01:05:33and Ipswich

01:05:34are happy

01:05:35to double up

01:05:35Jeremy Doku

01:05:36is finding it

01:05:37very difficult

01:05:38but then there

01:05:38suddenly became

01:05:39a switch

01:05:39it was as if

01:05:40they remembered

01:05:40what's made

01:05:41them so good

01:05:41over the last

01:05:42so many years

01:05:43it's that link

01:05:44up

01:05:45it's these clever

01:05:45runs in behind

01:05:46full back

01:05:47Kevin De Bruyne

01:05:47is about to do

01:05:48those kind of

01:05:48runs

01:05:49they're what

01:05:49made Man City

01:05:50excellent

01:05:51Bernardo Silva

01:05:51had been doing

01:05:52them for years

01:05:52Phil Foden

01:05:53you know

01:05:54obviously Kevin

01:05:54De Bruyne

01:05:55are doing them

01:05:55now

01:05:55and that link

01:05:56up between

01:05:57these two

01:05:58Doku and

01:05:59Kevin De Bruyne

01:06:00just happened

01:06:00all day long

01:06:01Ipswich

01:06:02Ben Godfrey

01:06:03just could not

01:06:04deal with it

01:06:04down that side

01:06:05of the pitch

01:06:06and they'll do it

01:06:06once and then

01:06:07they'll pass the

01:06:08ball out

01:06:08suddenly now

01:06:09Doku's got

01:06:09someone to play with

01:06:10just do it again

01:06:11very simple

01:06:11in between

01:06:12those Ipswich

01:06:14players

01:06:14and I think

01:06:15if you've got

01:06:16clever players

01:06:17who remember

01:06:17what it is

01:06:18that they were

01:06:18good at

01:06:19what hurts

01:06:19the opposition

01:06:20you're going

01:06:21to create

01:06:21chances for the

01:06:22likes of

01:06:22Phil Foden

01:06:23City getting

01:06:23forward

01:06:24into those

01:06:24positions

01:06:25and if you

01:06:25keep doing

01:06:25that

01:06:26and you get

01:06:26those runs

01:06:27then suddenly

01:06:27the opposition

01:06:28are now

01:06:28thinking

01:06:29well I'm

01:06:29going to have

01:06:30to stay

01:06:30away from

01:06:30doubling up

01:06:31I'm going

01:06:31to have to

01:06:32stay back

01:06:32and look

01:06:33for those

01:06:33runs

01:06:33and Jeremy

01:06:34Dock who

01:06:35can utilise

01:06:35that space

01:06:36and be

01:06:36clinical

01:06:37and I thought

01:06:37yes there were

01:06:38a lot of good

01:06:39things about

01:06:39Manchester City

01:06:40today that

01:06:40I've seen so

01:06:41often down the

01:06:42years

01:06:42and also

01:06:43some players

01:06:43coming back

01:06:44into form

01:06:44when you look

01:06:45at Phil Foden's

01:06:45numbers since

01:06:46the turn of

01:06:46the year

01:06:47and he's

01:06:48back at it

01:06:49and he's

01:06:49spoken about

01:06:50that himself

01:06:50after the game

01:06:51yeah I mean

01:06:52five goals

01:06:53in the last

01:06:53three games

01:06:54if you look

01:06:55at the first

01:06:55part of the

01:06:56season

01:06:56one in 14

01:06:56and only one

01:06:57assist in that

01:06:58so he's

01:06:59definitely

01:06:59had a change

01:07:00in form

01:07:01since the

01:07:02new year

01:07:02and he will

01:07:02you know

01:07:03want to continue

01:07:04that form

01:07:04if they are

01:07:05to help

01:07:05City climb up

01:07:07the table

01:07:07a little bit

01:07:08they've got a

01:07:08heck of a

01:07:09month or so

01:07:10coming up

01:07:11of City

01:07:12where you look

01:07:12at the fix

01:07:13you've got the

01:07:13rest of the

01:07:14top six

01:07:14and Tottenham

01:07:16who have been

01:07:17difficult opponents

01:07:18for them

01:07:18historically

01:07:19yeah and

01:07:20you know

01:07:21I think City

01:07:22were probably

01:07:22looking for a

01:07:23run of games

01:07:24that could build

01:07:25them back into

01:07:25it and they've

01:07:26got all those

01:07:26big hitting games

01:07:27now

01:07:27they could define

01:07:29their season

01:07:29the way the league

01:07:30goes

01:07:30they've got two

01:07:31big games

01:07:32in PSG

01:07:33and Bruges

01:07:33as well

01:07:34so yeah

01:07:34a really big

01:07:35run of games

01:07:36and if they're

01:07:36in that kind

01:07:37of form

01:07:37though

01:07:37I think

01:07:38they'll start

01:07:38to be alright

01:07:39okay

01:07:40thank you

01:07:41here's the best

01:07:42of the action

01:07:59and again

01:08:00and in

01:08:01Darwin

01:08:02Nunez

01:08:03has possibly

01:08:05won it

01:08:05for Liverpool

01:08:06they've had

01:08:08to be patient

01:08:09but going

01:08:10into stoppage

01:08:11time

01:08:11they have

01:08:12found a way

01:08:38close to

01:08:39to again

01:08:40go off

01:08:41without a win

01:08:42and that

01:08:43combined

01:08:43with a late

01:08:43winner

01:08:44was where

01:08:45we're mostly

01:08:45happy about
