00:00Welcome to Match of the Dead.
00:30Good evening.
00:51Three games to show you on tonight's Match of the Day,
00:53with goals, grudges and the odd bit of controversy thrown in.
00:56Troy Deeney and Rob Green with us
00:59for all the talking points, and there are plenty of those.
01:01For the very first time on Match of the Day,
01:04we head to the Hill Dickinson Stadium,
01:06Everton's brand-new home at Bramley Moor Dock
01:08on Liverpool's waterfront.
01:10Brighton were the first visitors.
01:11Guy Mowry is your commentator.
01:15It might take a while for some Evertonians
01:18to get used to their new home by the water.
01:21Change can be difficult.
01:22It will be after 133 years at Goodison Park.
01:26But first impressions often linger.
01:29And this place is mightily impressive from every angle.
01:33You couldn't say that about Everton's first performance of the season at Leeds on Monday,
01:39with David Moyes reacting by making two changes to his team today.
01:43Charlie Alcaraz and Beto make way for Jack Grealish and Cherno Barry,
01:48both starting for the Toffees for the first time.
01:51Just one change, Brighton, who threw away two points late on in game one against Fulham.
01:57Jorginho Rutte has been ruled out.
01:59So it's over to the experience of Danny Welbeck,
02:02a scorer in his final two starts at Goodison.
02:05It's an eye-was-there day,
02:11but will the match itself be one to remember?
02:15Jai skips through.
02:18Keeps going despite being impeded.
02:20The shot easily saved by Verbruggen,
02:24but Jorginho Rutte sparkling from the start.
02:28This was beautiful.
02:30Could have been a free kick,
02:31but well played Jorginho Rutte keeping his feet and going for goal.
02:35And the boys focused on the job in hand.
02:41I was saying this week,
02:42he was looking forward to coming to the new stadium as a supporter
02:45and then got off at the Everton job again.
02:47Win-win.
02:49Tarkovsky is going to watch that all the way,
02:50and he's missed it,
02:51and it's allowed Mitoma in.
02:53Mitoma has a go and hits the top of the bar.
03:00Magnificent attempt.
03:00And James Tarkovsky is mightily relieved
03:04that that was just a fraction too high,
03:07and only just.
03:08That's technique.
03:11Kind of deserved a goal.
03:17Fabian Herzler looks in animated mood.
03:20I think he's trying to counter the atmosphere
03:22that his team are up against here.
03:24Making his own voice heard.
03:26Making it clear to his players that
03:28they're here as well.
03:30Tony Blum, the Brighton owner, is here as well.
03:36Van Hecker.
03:38Brighton starting to look good.
03:41FIFA.
03:42Minta has been overtaken by Idrissa Garnica,
03:44who's gone too far.
03:45Minta across off.
03:47That had to be in.
03:49Danny Welbeck has
03:50somehow popped it over.
03:54Mitoma hit the bar when he had no right to do.
03:57Welbeck missed the target when he had no right to do.
03:59Barry left on the floor.
04:06N'Jai then skipped past a couple once more.
04:09Dewsbury Hall's taken it down and finds Grealish,
04:12and this is really good for Everton.
04:14Brighton back in numbers.
04:15Grealish and it's in from N'Jai.
04:25There it is.
04:26The historic first Premier League goal at Everton's new home.
04:32Exactly what Jack Grealish has been brought to this football club for.
04:41Put in a lovely delivery
04:43and invited anybody,
04:46anyone would do in blue to attack it.
04:48Ilyam and N'Jai did that.
04:50And if you thought this place was loud before the start,
04:55fantastic noise.
04:58And in amidst the celebrations,
05:00a moment of lovely symmetry as well.
05:04Scorer of the last goal at Goodison Park,
05:07scorer of the first goal,
05:09down by the river.
05:1026 minutes played.
05:15And applause rings around the ground
05:17in memory of Michael Jones,
05:19the Everton fan from Kirby,
05:21who tragically died two years ago this month.
05:24He was working on construction of this great site.
05:28And it's a nice touch from Everton Football Club.
05:36Here's Mutoma.
05:37Belieber.
05:43The Hecker.
05:45Has a goal!
05:46And hits the post with Pickford struggling.
05:48De Kuyper seen off it by Tarkovsky,
05:51who stayed down after the challenge.
05:56And the free kick goes to Everton.
05:59A why not moment from the centre-back.
06:02Strug Grealish.
06:03That's why it spun away from the palm of Jordan Pickford.
06:07You can see here,
06:10Tarkovsky's there first,
06:11then takes a whack from Maxim de Kuyper.
06:13And Hecker looking to find Minta in the first few seconds of the time added on.
06:21Welbeck has it now.
06:23Ayari stretch but can't keep the ball as a result.
06:26Tarkovsky was hesitant and has given the ball to O'Reilly
06:29and Pickford has saved him.
06:33Tarkovsky bites his shirt,
06:35hangs his head
06:36and thanks Jordan Pickford profusely.
06:41Dug out of a huge hole
06:43that was all of his own digging.
06:47Huge let off Everton.
06:49Huge.
06:49Giant.
06:56Barry.
06:57Nobody in the middle for him yet.
07:00He's going to have to think about this a little differently.
07:02Good spot to see Idrissa Garner-Gay
07:04and he's picked out Grealish.
07:08Back to Garner.
07:10Garner's left.
07:11Oh, wow!
07:12That's ripped home.
07:21What a stunner
07:23from James Garner.
07:31There's another assist for Jack Grealish,
07:33one of his easier ones.
07:36A rocket from Garner.
07:38Everton 2, Brighton 0.
07:42The housewarming
07:45is going as they planned it.
07:56A haircut.
08:00Jai
08:01has just lost out
08:02and Gautoma has it
08:03and he's found Ayari.
08:05Ayari trying to shoot
08:06straight against the gloves of Pickford.
08:12De Kuyper
08:13puts the brakes on.
08:15Mitoma will help him out now.
08:17Didn't help himself.
08:25Another shot that
08:26ideally for Brighton
08:28could have done with a deflection
08:29just to take it away
08:30from Jordan Pickford.
08:35A little glum.
08:36Rabien Herzler.
08:41Looks like being just one point
08:42from Brighton's opening two games.
08:46Mitoma.
08:49Really good ball
08:50outside of the boot.
08:51Here's Minter.
08:53Charged down.
08:54And the referee says penalty.
08:56Charged down with the hands
08:57of Dewsbury Hall
08:58in the view of Stuart Atwell.
08:59Hand in front of his chest.
09:07It's kind of clamped in.
09:09It does hit his hand
09:10but what are you supposed to do?
09:11Just get out of the way?
09:14So Brighton might have a way back.
09:16Matt O'Reilly scored from the spot
09:18against Fulham last week.
09:20Scored from the spot
09:21on the final day of last season
09:22at Spurs
09:23but he's given this one away
09:25to Danny Welbeck.
09:26Is he good enough
09:27to be picked from the spot?
09:29And get Brighton back
09:31into this game.
09:32Contest back on
09:33if this one goes in.
09:38Well, that's taking plenty of time.
09:40And saved by Pickford.
09:45Anticipated it.
09:47Read it.
09:48Saved it.
09:50There aren't many better.
09:52Saved two out of two
09:53in the Premier League last season.
09:56From Anthony Gordon
09:57and from Erling Haaland.
09:58Well, now it's Danny Welbeck denied.
10:01Everton two.
10:02Brighton nil it remains.
10:06There's Jordan Pickford's homework.
10:09All taped up around the water bottle.
10:13No choppy waters on day one
10:15at the new home for Everton.
10:19All is happy and calm.
10:20In amongst many good performances,
10:23I've got to mention Jack Grealish
10:25because there he is
10:25on his home debut
10:26and two assists.
10:27I mean, that's just a glimpse,
10:28I guess,
10:29of what he is going to bring you.
10:30Well, that's what we've been
10:31hoping for and waiting for.
10:33We want to add that extra quality
10:35and that's what we're trying to do.
10:36We're still improving.
10:38Don't think we're there.
10:39We've got a completely
10:40makeshift back four at the moment.
10:42So I think they deserve
10:43a lot of credit
10:43for getting a result
10:44against Brighton today.
10:46It's not only about
10:47creating a chance
10:48and scoring the goals.
10:49It's also about
10:50having a defensive mindset
10:51and trying to defend together
10:52and in some moments
10:54we didn't do it
10:56when we conceded the goals
10:57and there we have to improve.
11:00I didn't want to look
11:01on my bottle
11:01because I know
11:02people's out there
11:03gunning for it to be banned
11:04but it's my trick
11:06so I'll keep doing it.
11:07Well, I think we saw
11:08a glimpse of your bottle
11:09in close-up
11:10and I think you said
11:10Welbeck 50% right
11:11and 50% left
11:12so is there still
11:13an element of
11:14just anticipation?
11:16You haven't seen
11:17the little bit above
11:18have you
11:18the little detail above yet?
11:20Yeah, I'd keep this left
11:21so I've always
11:22never changed my mind.
11:23You said this week
11:24that had you not
11:25been offered the job
11:26you would have been
11:26back here at some point
11:27as a supporter
11:28watching games.
11:29How was it as a manager
11:30and supporter
11:31all in one on day one?
11:32It was brilliant
11:33because there is history
11:35today that it's
11:35the first game
11:36and somebody will be
11:37standing interviewing
11:37a manager here
11:38in a hundred years' time
11:40we'll all be well gone
11:41but the point is
11:42we started it off today
11:43and I hope that
11:45the history of the future
11:46is going to be
11:47a lot to be talked about.
11:49Well, they started it off well
11:50and it looks
11:51absolutely stunning
11:52doesn't it?
11:53Lucky Stadium
11:53what a difference
11:54six days makes.
11:56Well, it was a really
11:56good day for Everton
11:57and a really good day
11:58for Jack Grealish
11:59he brought balance
12:00and he brought width
12:01to the side
12:02and it's something
12:03that they were really
12:03short of last week
12:05against Leeds
12:06and you're looking
12:07at Jack Grealish
12:08and his experience
12:09that he can use
12:09out on the pitch
12:11out on the left-hand side
12:12is where he played today
12:13going back
12:15six days
12:15two against Leeds
12:17and those are the
12:18two wingers in there
12:19very narrow
12:20and you're left
12:21with six players
12:22in such a condensed
12:23area there
12:24against Leeds
12:24it's really easy
12:25to defend
12:26and when they do
12:26go wide
12:27David Moyes
12:28touched on it
12:29they've got a centre-back
12:30on the right-hand side
12:32here
12:32and O'Brien
12:32and O'Garno on the left
12:34who's a centre-midfielder
12:35a right-footed
12:35centre-midfielder
12:36at left-back
12:37and the running lines
12:38get cut off
12:39the passing lanes
12:40get cut off
12:40and the options
12:41just aren't there
12:42we cut through
12:42to this week
12:43and Dye and Grealish
12:44gives them so much space
12:46gives them so much width
12:48you look at Dewsbury Hall
12:49who's one of those six
12:50in that tight area
12:51now he's got
12:52a real abundance
12:53of space
12:54to switch the ball
12:55to get out to
12:56and it's just about
12:57maintaining that balance
12:58maintaining that width
13:00that Jack Grealish
13:00he knows what to do
13:02when he's out here
13:03he wants to be in this position
13:04and he can drive
13:05at a defender
13:06and guess who's there
13:07on the far post
13:07it's Ndai
13:08scoring what was
13:10Everton's first goal
13:11in the stadium
13:11a really well-worked goal
13:13and something that
13:14Everton fans will be
13:15hoping for more and more of
13:16and they got it
13:17in the second half
13:18and again
13:18Ndai and Grealish
13:20you can see
13:20how much width
13:22that gives them
13:23how much space
13:24it gives
13:24Dewsbury Hall out there
13:25Barry with some
13:27really good centre-forward
13:28play that we'll touch on
13:29with later
13:29but the combination there
13:31we've highlighted
13:32Grealish at the top
13:33of the screen
13:34just to hold his nerve
13:35hold his width
13:37hold the space
13:38to allow the other
13:39players to come in
13:40and this is where
13:41Garner wants to be
13:42a centre-midfielder
13:43in a centre-midfielder's
13:44position
13:45on his right foot
13:45a wonder strike
13:46a brilliant performance
13:48from Jack Grealish
13:49and we go to show
13:50where he affected
13:51the game
13:52where does Jack Grealish
13:53want to be on the pitch
13:54where does he want to play
13:55it's out on that
13:56left-hand side
13:56he's tormenting
13:57their defences
13:58but he's really
13:59held his shape
13:59and he's held that
14:00shape for Everton
14:01it was a really good
14:02day for them
14:03and as many assists
14:04as he's had in the
14:04last two seasons
14:05so it might be a bit
14:07futile this question
14:08is that his best position
14:09or do you want to see
14:10him a little bit
14:11more central at times
14:12well to me it doesn't
14:13matter where he's playing
14:14it's about how he feels
14:15does he feel loved
14:17when he was at Aston Villa
14:17he was on the left-hand
14:18side but they gave him
14:20the ball
14:20gave him that freedom
14:21at Man City
14:22he was one of many
14:23great players
14:24and I think
14:24it kind of stifled him
14:26a little bit
14:26that every time
14:27he had to be very
14:28deliberate in his
14:28movement
14:29deliberate with his
14:30play
14:30I think you saw
14:31today
14:31a Jack Greenish
14:33the first goal
14:33is Aston Villa
14:34Jack Greenish
14:35the second goal
14:36is Man City
14:36Jack Greenish
14:37but he has the
14:38freedom to do
14:38what he wants
14:39so as long as
14:40he's happy
14:40there was a lovely
14:41picture at the start
14:41with his daughter
14:42I thought that was
14:43a real encapsulation
14:45of where he's at
14:45this moment in time
14:46looking around
14:47at his new home
14:48you get to bring
14:49your family there
14:50just watch the smiles
14:51on his face
14:52this is a young man
14:53that's happy
14:54and enjoying himself
14:55again and that
14:56really bodes well
14:56great for England
14:57he said just as much
14:58as that didn't he
14:59I could drift
15:00I could be more or
15:01less where I wanted
15:02today and all those
15:03kind of emotions
15:04make it feel like
15:05he's in a place
15:06that he feels loved
15:06and wanted
15:07and also you noticed
15:09that his teammates
15:10are looking for him
15:10the whole time
15:11and does that help
15:12somebody like Barry
15:13do you think
15:14who's new to this
15:14yeah and I think
15:16as well for Barry
15:16I was at the game
15:18against Leeds
15:18on Monday
15:19six days ago
15:20and it was
15:21it was criminal
15:22that's the only word
15:23I could use
15:24that Beto
15:24stayed on the pitch
15:25he was awful
15:26but this young man
15:27he had 37 games
15:29that year
15:2911 goals
15:30played all summer
15:31for France
15:32has to get up to
15:33tempo and speed
15:34with what David Moyes
15:35wants
15:35but his touch
15:36his link
15:37he held up the ball
15:38so much better
15:39and obviously
15:40he's going to take
15:40a while to get
15:41accustomed to it
15:42but he just added
15:43a different focus
15:44was running in behind
15:44and that then
15:45allows for Jack Greenish
15:46and then Dias Rob
15:47alluded to
15:48to have so much space
15:49and it gives
15:50a bat for something
15:50to worry about
15:51have either of you
15:52ever had to be
15:54the first in a team
15:55to play at a new stadium
15:56and had that emotion
15:57kind of going in
15:58because it must be
15:58such a kind of relief
16:00to get that result
16:01in your first game
16:01I think you look
16:02at the history of teams
16:04and a lot of teams
16:04have won their first game
16:05and then struggled
16:06immediately after that
16:08I think Southampton
16:09is the only side
16:09not to win their first game
16:11in a stadium
16:11but you lose your identity
16:13you lose the pockets
16:15of fans that sing
16:16you lose the feeling
16:18and generally
16:19they're really
16:20really nice
16:21to go and play
16:21and that counts
16:22for the away team
16:23as well
16:23and you lose
16:24that intensity
16:25and you know
16:26my old club
16:27West Ham
16:27how they're suffering
16:28in their new stadium
16:29and you're thinking
16:30wow what to be
16:31back at the bowling
16:32and it's that sort
16:33of intensity
16:34that you lose
16:34to create your new history
16:36David Moy touched on it
16:38new history
16:38again and again
16:40and again
16:40they've got to go
16:41and do it
16:41the next game
16:41and the game
16:42after that
16:42we've got to talk
16:43to you about
16:44keepers and information
16:46because Pickford
16:47we saw him
16:47checking his bottle
16:48on Monday
16:48against Leeds
16:49he went the right way
16:50didn't save that penalty
16:51it worked for him today
16:51though
16:52all this intel
16:53all this information
16:54that is at their disposal
16:56on their water bottles
16:57yes
16:58just a reminder
16:59it's only a reminder
17:00he will have watched
17:01so many penalties
17:02before the game
17:03and there is
17:03the key bit of information
17:05go left
17:06and I think it's
17:08abundantly clear
17:09to Jordan Pickford
17:10when we see it
17:10in a second
17:11but you're looking
17:12for various different tells
17:13and it's easier
17:14with a shorter run up
17:15down to the step
17:16down to the type
17:17of movement
17:17he makes
17:18from a shorter run
17:19even down to
17:20what foot
17:21he starts his run up off
17:22and you look at
17:23Jordan Pickford now
17:24you can see
17:25he's actually
17:25further over
17:26to the left hand side
17:27so there's so many
17:28giveaways within this
17:29the final giveaway
17:30the angle of Danny Welbeck's foot
17:32if you're good enough
17:33to wait that long
17:34he can't put it
17:36in any other direction
17:37but that side
17:37because he'd cut off
17:38three quarters of the goal
17:40so you would notice
17:41things that the player
17:42was doing
17:42and positioning their body
17:43before you made your decision
17:45yeah
17:46the more information
17:47I got
17:47the better I got
17:48at saving penalties
17:49and one that
17:50I really enjoyed
17:51was against Steven Gerrard
17:53and he used to set off
17:54in a different direction
17:55with his right foot
17:56as opposed to his left foot
17:57in a different direction
17:58at the start of his run up
17:59and you could tell
18:00just by that first step
18:01which way he'd go off
18:02or the shorter run up
18:04and I had a really good record
18:05against him
18:05so whenever Liverpool
18:07got a penalty
18:08you were like
18:08right just give me that first step
18:10and you find those little triggers
18:11and John Pickford today
18:13nailed it
18:14and the other side
18:15Welbeck didn't look
18:16too confident
18:17did he?
18:17No
18:18look I like Welbeck
18:20he's a friend of mine as well
18:21so I've got to be careful
18:22but as a striker
18:24in this situation
18:25as a former penalty taker
18:26I'm thinking about the moment
18:28it's the 77th minute
18:29you've got this feeling now
18:31if you score
18:32all the momentums of you
18:33that short run up
18:34doesn't feel like
18:35it's a natural run up
18:36but this is the biggest tell for me
18:38just watch when he hits his nail
18:39of his right foot
18:40it comes off his heel
18:41it's not a clean hit
18:43so to me
18:44it was just about
18:44I would go down the middle
18:45in that situation
18:47because it would take
18:47a lot for Jordan Pickford
18:49to stand
18:50in that environment
18:51with a new stadium
18:52with all the fans behind him
18:53to stand there
18:54and do it
18:54I just think
18:55go down the middle
18:56in that situation
18:57get it to 2-1
18:58now all the pressures are
18:59now all the anxiety builds
19:01and you can keep going
19:02but for me
19:02Brighton were poor
19:04going forward
19:05in their clinical edge
19:06their XG was excellent
19:07it was a case of like
19:082.46
19:09so they should score
19:11but it's just
19:11back-to-back games now
19:13with that killer instinct
19:14they've lost Jair Pedro
19:15and unfortunately
19:16haven't got that killer instinct now
19:18and we wondered
19:18didn't we Troy
19:19where does Rob Green
19:20sit in that pantheon
19:22of British
19:23English
19:24Premier League
19:25goalkeepers
19:26and in terms of percentage
19:28well he's the top
19:2926%
19:30of those penalty space
19:31that he's saved
19:33however he's just one now
19:34behind Jordan Pickford
19:36but he's taken much
19:37many fewer
19:39than you
19:39so what's
19:40more
19:41sorry
19:41he's taken more than you
19:42so what's the secret?
19:44Information
19:44for me
19:45it was all about the information
19:46I couldn't save it
19:46I never saved one for Norwich
19:47in 250 games
19:49and then I got to West Ham
19:50a greater number of information
19:52a greater budget
19:53that allowed us
19:54to get that information
19:55and from there
19:56stroke of fortune
19:58sometimes
19:58but it was
19:59the information
20:01that I could take on board
20:02and there must have been
20:03worse penalty takers
20:03in our day
20:04you got in there
20:06before he did
20:07okay
20:08next up to Craven Cottage
20:10where Manchester United
20:11have won on each
20:12of their last eight visits
20:13they've never won nine
20:14in a row
20:14away from home
20:15against any opponent
20:16in their league history
20:17commentary comes from
20:18Steve Wilson
20:19our own Danny Murphy
20:22was on the score sheet
20:23the last time
20:24Fulham beat Manchester United
20:25here
20:2616 years ago
20:27that
20:28the season that Fulham
20:29reached the Europa League
20:31final
20:31today they're looking
20:32for a first home win
20:33since early April
20:35having lost their last
20:36three here last season
20:37and Marco Silva
20:39makes three changes
20:40to the side
20:40which earned a late
20:41point at Brighton
20:42goal scorer then
20:43Rodrigo Muniz
20:44is in for Jimenez
20:45Sessegnor and Castaña
20:47replace Cuenca and Wilson
20:49who dropped to the bench
20:50the United
20:51Altai keeps his place
20:52in goal
20:53even though
20:54Andrea Nana
20:54has travelled
20:55and is on the bench
20:56Antwerp goalkeeper
20:57Senna Lamans
20:58is expected to sign
21:00at Old Trafford
21:01in the next day or two
21:02Benjamin Shashko
21:04is still a substitute
21:05Ahmad in for Diego
21:06Dalo
21:07the only change
21:08to the side
21:09which lost to Arsenal
21:10they got their best ever
21:14Premier League points
21:15tally last season
21:16Fulham
21:17can they kick on
21:19from that
21:19that's given away
21:23Bruno Fernandes
21:25oh that's not far away
21:30Cuenca hit it really well
21:31hit it early as well
21:33well he wasn't messing
21:35around here
21:36really good strike
21:38they're not
21:41Manchester United
21:42out of the FA Cup
21:42last season
21:43Fulham in a penalty
21:44shootout at Old Trafford
21:45a rare success
21:47for them over
21:47the Red Devils
21:49it has to be said
21:49that's Dorgue
21:52here's an opportunity
21:53for Cuenca
21:54and he's hit the post
21:55and Dumo
21:57well Matthias Cuenca
22:00has started in
22:02electrifying fashion
22:04in this game
22:05good save
22:17off the left
22:19good reactions
22:24from the goalkeeper
22:25judged it right
22:27plum down the middle
22:30asking questions
22:32and it's a super
22:33stop by Leno
22:34to deny Cuenca
22:36well great goalkeeping
22:39of two completely
22:40different kinds here
22:41it's a great ball
22:43down the middle
22:43from Altai
22:44brilliantly controlled
22:45and then a super
22:46save from Leno
22:47Matthias Cuenca
22:49might have had three
22:50he hasn't played
22:5115 minutes yet
22:52and Cesenho
22:59has nicked it
22:59from Amartialo
23:00it won't be
23:02in King
23:03in the middle
23:03Rodrigo Muniz
23:04arriving
23:05good recovery
23:05corner
23:06well he made
23:09amends
23:09for the error
23:12Cesenho
23:12was on to him
23:13very quickly
23:14Luka
23:23the delivery
23:24well controlled by Iwobi
23:26goes down as another good save
23:30great technique here from Iwobi
23:33this is far from easy
23:34coming down from a pretty great height
23:36Altai saw it coming and got across
23:39nice nice from Mason Mount
23:44Bruno Fernandes
23:45Anderson is with him
23:46and Bassi was covering
23:48which was just as well
23:50because Matthias Cuenca was in there
23:51nicely done by Mount
23:56well covered by Bassi
23:59and this check has been going on for some time and they're looking again at that
24:12for some possible holding from that Manchester United corner kick it was Calvin Bassi on Mason Mount
24:19and this check has been going on for some time and they're looking again at that
24:26Bassi on Mount
24:28well
24:29they have to feel that the ball might have come to Mount
24:33had he not been swung around
24:36by Calvin Bassi
24:38and Chris Kavanagh
24:39has had a long hard look
24:42after review
24:43fuller number three
24:45pulls Manchester player to the ground
24:48final decision
24:50penalty game
24:51penalty to Manchester United
24:55well believe me
24:57that smile
24:59from Marco Silva
25:01is one of sarcasm
25:04Manchester United have a penalty
25:08well Bruno Fernandes has done this
25:13so many times
25:15he does not miss many
25:18Ruben Amerim
25:20is not watching
25:21here he comes
25:24United captain
25:25and he's put it over the bar
25:26well just about
25:30the most untypical penalty
25:32you'll ever see
25:32from Bruno Fernandes
25:34absolutely hammered it
25:37over the crossbar
25:38I can't think I've ever seen him
25:41take a worse penalty
25:42I just wonder if that little
25:45accidental contact
25:46going into Bruno Fernandes
25:47mind
25:47he's going through his routine
25:48to take the penalty
25:49he's clearly not happy
25:51that Chris Kavanagh
25:52has accidentally impeded him
25:55well very small things
25:57can have significant ripples
25:59I guess
26:00King
26:07Euro chasing
26:09and did brilliantly
26:10that's terrific defending there
26:15he looks second favourite there
26:17it's a great recovery
26:20brilliantly done
26:23that's his Cunha
26:28Gio Godalo here
26:31that's the knee of the Wilde
26:34and that's a Manchester United corner
26:35Brian and Boomer
26:42to take this right in front
26:43of the Manchester United fans
26:45and the free header
26:50it's in
26:51Lenny Euro's put
26:55Manchester United in front
26:56well and Boomer's getting
27:00congratulated for his delivery
27:02Lenny Euro definitely got something on it
27:04but Rodrigo Muniz
27:05just might be credited
27:08with an own goal here
27:09Manchester United are in front
27:12their first goal
27:15of the season
27:16well he's saying
27:21that there might have been a foul
27:22obviously it's been checked
27:25and cleared
27:25well this is what
27:28Fulham are unhappy about
27:29as the corner kick comes in
27:31there's a push
27:32there's a push by Euro
27:33on Bassey
27:34Raul Jimenez
27:40and Alex Iwobi
27:42Sanderberga nicely done
27:45Raul Jimenez
27:46Harry Wilson steaming into the middle
27:48Dorgu kept pace with it
27:51mistake from Diogo Dalo
27:54Robinson
27:56Iwobi in
28:01and Smithrow
28:02it's 1-1
28:05Emil Smithrow for Fulham
28:13it's his first touch
28:16since coming on
28:17and he's just
28:19pumped it
28:20past Altaï
28:21Fulham 1
28:22Manchester United
28:23in by matches
28:31Cunha
28:32behind
28:33by Calvin Bassey
28:36and now it's
28:39Manchester United
28:40asking the questions
28:42well they scored
28:45from a Brian and Vermo
28:47corner kick
28:47from this side
28:49to take the lead
28:50if they do it again
28:52they'll probably win the game
28:53in it goes
28:57oh go the heads
28:58and that was not far away
28:59Harry Maguire
29:01familiar now
29:02with his role
29:04as a late substitute
29:05to go up front
29:06and try and score
29:06a late goal
29:07and he's not far away here
29:08a nice thing
29:11for a coach
29:12to be able to make substitutions
29:13who then have an impact
29:14on the game
29:14it's not a coincidence
29:15for us
29:16last season
29:16was 17 goals
29:17from players
29:18from the bench
29:19by far the best team
29:20in Premier League
29:21in that aspect
29:22and this season
29:23already happened
29:23in two games
29:25twice
29:25it's not a coincidence
29:26but it speaks more
29:27about the players
29:28that we have
29:28the characters
29:29that we have
29:29in our dressing room
29:30I think for me
29:31it's clear and obvious
29:32he's got two hands
29:35in my back
29:35he's created an advantage
29:36for himself
29:37he's clearly stopped me
29:38from getting to the ball
29:39so yeah for me
29:40I think it should have
29:41been a foul
29:41I felt that
29:43we were a good team
29:45until our goal
29:46and then we forget
29:47about our ideas
29:49and try to hold on
29:51the advantage
29:51so we are struggling
29:53so much
29:53we want to win
29:55so bad football games
29:57that when we score
29:59we were just thinking
30:00about holding the advantage
30:02I just wonder
30:04how much that little
30:05collision with the referee
30:06affected you
30:07no obviously
30:08as everyone
30:09you have your own routine
30:10and I was preparing myself
30:11to get the penalty
30:12I had quite a little bit
30:13of my nerves
30:14but it's not
30:15not because of that
30:17I missed the penalty
30:17I missed the penalty
30:18because I kicked very bad
30:19the ball
30:19I took it two under
30:21and the ball
30:21ended up going over the bar
30:23we'll get on to the taking
30:24of the penalty
30:25in a second
30:25but there's quite a lot
30:26to unpick isn't there
30:27in the actual awarding
30:29of that penalty
30:30yeah there's a tale
30:31of a number of corners
30:32within the game
30:33and one of the main ones
30:34was the penalty
30:35that was given
30:35and VAR
30:37rearing its head again
30:39and we're looking
30:40at Casemiro
30:41and the sole purpose
30:43of Mount and Shaw
30:44is to clear the path
30:46and block the players
30:47and I'll say it
30:48hold the players
30:49of Fulham
30:50to stop them
30:51getting in
30:51challenging
30:52now Kuni almost
30:53does that for them
30:54but there's no real appeal
30:56from any Manchester United
30:57players
30:58and one of the reasons
30:58as they said
30:59it was given
30:59that Bassey
31:00was the initiator
31:02the person who fouls
31:03first within there
31:04and we look
31:05Luke Shaw's already
31:06got hold of Mounia's
31:07in there
31:08and Mason Mount
31:08is going in
31:09they both instigate
31:11the move
31:11if they didn't instigate
31:13the move
31:13those two players
31:14would be happy
31:15to go and make the
31:16header and clear the ball
31:17we can see
31:18that yes
31:19Calvin Bassey
31:20does throw him
31:21over the leg
31:22his own leg
31:22but within that
31:24you've got a number
31:25of fouls already
31:26being committed
31:27and if there's any doubt
31:28we can see the other arm
31:29there of both players
31:30holding the players
31:31now they have no intention
31:33of going playing the ball
31:34so they are
31:35their sole purpose
31:36is to hold
31:37and foul the Fulham players
31:39and that's what
31:39they've done
31:40so it's a really
31:42dubious call
31:44or unclear
31:45so in the eyes
31:47of VAR
31:47there's enough doubt
31:49in there
31:49to stay out
31:50and just leave it
31:51as a football
31:52in motion
31:53you can't do that
31:54as Calvin Bassey said
31:55he's admitted himself
31:56I shouldn't do that
31:57but Troy
31:58have you ever had
31:59a referee come along
32:00and try and put you off
32:00after giving you a penalty
32:02because it did help
32:03he says it didn't
32:04but it did
32:04yeah I think
32:05you know Bruno
32:06fair play to him
32:07he's fronted up there
32:08but it has knocked him
32:08off his stride
32:09because normally
32:09he'd be more composed
32:11now and he passes it in
32:12but he actually lashes
32:13this one
32:14and a little bit of pressure
32:15and I think for Amarin
32:16he just wants that moment
32:17they started the game
32:18off so well
32:19and they haven't got the goals
32:20and he must be thinking
32:21what have I got to do
32:22to just get the win
32:23over the line
32:24Cunha hitting the post
32:26then that missing the penalty
32:27the game could have been
32:28out of sight
32:28and then
32:29there was more controversy
32:31in the build up
32:32to the goal itself
32:33and another situation
32:34where a foul
32:35could have been given
32:36yeah absolutely
32:37and for me
32:38it's a tweak
32:39that Man United did
32:40so you can see here
32:41with Fulham
32:41they overload the front post
32:43here so they've got
32:44four in there
32:45in the areas here
32:46so Man U would target
32:46the back post
32:47as Rob has just alluded to
32:49but if we move it
32:50onto the second half
32:51again same set up
32:52but now Man United
32:53at half time
32:53have deliberately moved
32:54it to the back post
32:55they've got Yaro and Bassey
32:57here I want you to keep
32:58an eye on Bassey
32:58great ball in for Brian
33:00and Bermow here
33:00again got that quality
33:01they just pushed him
33:03in the back there
33:03Lady Yaro
33:04gets the header
33:05Muniz turns his back
33:06which I don't think
33:07Marco Silva would be
33:08too happy about
33:08but for me that's a foul
33:10when you push the defender
33:12in the back
33:12and it's more
33:13could he be stronger
33:14yes absolutely
33:16would I want my centre
33:16back to be stronger
33:17of course I would
33:18but where the ball lands
33:19is where Bassey
33:20would have been
33:21so he's moved him
33:22out of the way
33:22and here's the perfect
33:23example
33:23the two hands in the back
33:24pushes him
33:25just enough off balance
33:26it's a poor header
33:27but ends up going
33:29in the back of the net
33:29but for me that's a foul
33:30it has a direct impact
33:32on the goal
33:33and you're looking
33:34for VAR
33:35when you have something
33:36clear and obvious
33:37that has a direct impact
33:39on the goal
33:39you flag it
33:40and then you ask the referee
33:42to go over
33:42and Bassey was saying
33:43afterwards wasn't he
33:44that he was told
33:44that it didn't have a direct impact
33:46which is why it wasn't
33:47given as a foul
33:47but clearly it did
33:49you're looking at VAR
33:50to say
33:51he should have stayed
33:52out of the first one
33:53and actually stepped in
33:54with the second one
33:55and got it the wrong way round
33:57let's talk about
33:58some positivity
33:59and Fulham's substitutes
34:01are certainly that
34:02aren't they
34:02dynamic
34:02energetic
34:03changing the game
34:04for them
34:04yeah
34:05again we're going to get
34:06onto the benches
34:07afterwards
34:07but for me I think
34:08Fulham have been great
34:09since the back end
34:10of last year
34:10they've scored
34:1219 goals now
34:13with their subs
34:14and every sub
34:15that they made
34:16was an attacking one
34:17with more positive impact
34:19and as soon as we break
34:20to it
34:20you've got Jimenez
34:21Smith Rowe
34:22Harry Wilson
34:23on the other side
34:23all running forward
34:24again
34:25but when the changes
34:26for Man United
34:26for me goes wrong
34:27because this would have been
34:28Ahmad
34:29he would have turned
34:29inside the set
34:30but even that
34:31just set it to Fernandes
34:33look it's 3v2
34:34on the top line
34:34just manage the game
34:36he doesn't
34:37for some reason
34:37tries to turn out
34:38it won't be great
34:39on the front foot
34:40and this is another
34:41substitute here
34:41with Robinson
34:42and he makes this goal
34:43for me
34:44lovely little ball
34:45he could have stood
34:45on Amari's work
34:46but look he runs
34:47into the space
34:48in that he moves
34:49Lenny Yarrow
34:50Ugarte
34:50and even Dalek
34:51goes to him as well
34:52but he forces
34:53the lit to come across
34:54he now opens up
34:55that space
34:55and look it
34:56all good forwards
34:57Emmanuel Smith Rowe
34:58he just looks at there
34:59runs in
34:59runs off
35:00Bruno Fernandes
35:01and scores
35:02and for me
35:03Fernandes is at fault
35:05in this
35:05and I'm going to show you
35:06why here
35:06just as that goes
35:07now look
35:07he can see
35:08Smith Rowe to his left
35:10everyone's body position
35:11is moving forward
35:12now they're all locked in
35:13man for man
35:14he can't let that player go
35:16because he has to wait
35:17for someone to take him
35:17off him
35:18unfortunately he doesn't
35:19it's a wonderful ball
35:20from Alex Iwobi
35:21and it's a lovely
35:22death finish
35:23from Smith Rowe
35:24but Man United
35:25have themselves to blame
35:26you mentioned
35:28about how successful
35:29they've been
35:30in terms of the effect
35:31and the impact
35:32of their subs
35:3319 now
35:34they're on
35:35you said 17 over
35:36last season
35:37from their subs
35:37goals
35:38and obviously
35:39goals often mean points
35:40and for them
35:41you know
35:41crucial valuable points
35:42they got one
35:43same thing happened
35:44to them last week as well
35:45I guess that points to
35:46Marco Silva having to then
35:47really kind of balance
35:48his squad out
35:49doesn't it
35:49because Smith Rowe
35:50will want to start
35:51but what an impact
35:52he's made for him today
35:52yeah and you look at
35:53a couple of years ago
35:54it was a Fulham side
35:55that couldn't change
35:57the course of a game
35:58they really were stuck
35:59in setting a gear
35:59and couldn't really
36:00have an impact
36:01but now
36:01you looked at how
36:03they played
36:03and it was brilliantly
36:04highlighted of the
36:05runners beyond
36:06the runners from
36:07midfield
36:07and Marco Silva
36:09highlighted that
36:09before the game
36:10and after the game
36:11saying they've got the
36:12three or the five
36:13at the back whichever way
36:13you want to put it
36:14so we need those extra
36:15runners
36:16they had them in abundance
36:17on the bench
36:18and you just had to wait
36:19for that time
36:20and it's selling it
36:21to your players
36:22to say you're on the bench
36:24but you're going to have
36:24to make this impact
36:25in the game
36:26and they're doing it
36:27time and time again
36:27and when you look at
36:28those two benches
36:29Manchester United
36:30and Fulham
36:31and you think about
36:31the fact that Fulham
36:32have spent about
36:33£400,000
36:34in the transfer window
36:36and Manchester United
36:37considerably more
36:39those benches
36:41for you Troy
36:42are actually
36:43unbalanced
36:44the way you wouldn't
36:45think
36:45yes I think for me
36:47when you look at it
36:48Shesko is the only one
36:49who's a natural
36:50attacking positive option
36:52the rest of them
36:53again
36:54Xerxes had a poor season
36:55Man Utd fans
36:56are not sure
36:57Maynou
36:58and Maguire
36:59Ugarte
37:00they're all
37:01light for light subs
37:02when you look at Fulham
37:03they can make
37:03defensive changes
37:05they can make
37:05attacking changes
37:06they can change formation
37:07just seems more
37:08well rounded
37:09so for me
37:10it just looks as if
37:11Man Utd have got
37:13so much work to do
37:14and also
37:14they have to leave
37:16people out
37:17your Garnachos
37:17the Sanchos
37:19the decisions that
37:20they've made
37:20is actually hampering
37:21them so
37:22they need to get rid
37:23of these players
37:23quickly
37:24or
37:24they've got to
37:25put them in
37:25because now
37:26they're killing
37:27themselves
37:27so with
37:28that in mind
37:29and the transfer
37:31window coming to a
37:32close
37:32very soon
37:33what do they need
37:34to do
37:35in this next
37:35business
37:35quick
37:36they need to get
37:37out to get in
37:38because they need
37:39options on the
37:39bench
37:40do they need a keeper?
37:40and a keeper
37:41if Anana's not your man
37:43Bindi is certainly
37:44not your man
37:45yeah
37:46yeah
37:46nervous today on corners
37:47yes
37:49an understatement
37:49on that
37:51yeah
37:51yeah
37:51okay
37:52next to Selhurst Park
37:54a bit of extra feeling
37:55in Crystal Palace's meeting
37:56with Nottingham Forest
37:57with the added twist
37:58of the apparent breakdown
37:59in the relationship
38:00between Forest's manager
38:01and their owner
38:02your commentator
38:03is Robin Cowan
38:04what should be a time
38:07for celebration
38:08is one more
38:09of uncertainty
38:10two trophies
38:11won in the last
38:12three months
38:13but Palace's
38:14demotion to the
38:14conference league
38:15and the departure
38:16of key players
38:17has given fans
38:18cause for concern
38:19Eberichi Eze's
38:21move to Arsenal
38:22has been confirmed
38:23captain Mark Gay
38:24is expected to be
38:25the next to leave
38:26but he starts today
38:27Justin Deveni
38:28is Eze's replacement
38:29in the only change
38:30from the draw
38:31over Chelsea
38:32Forest's supposed
38:33influence on UEFA's
38:34decision
38:34has added to Palace's
38:36sense of injustice
38:37Forest gained a
38:38Europa League place
38:39but they might yet
38:40lose the man
38:41who got them there
38:42their head coach
38:43Nuno Espirito Santo's
38:44future is in question
38:45after he admitted
38:46his relationship
38:47with owner
38:48Evangelos Maranakis
38:49has deteriorated
38:50worrying news
38:51for Chris Wood
38:52who has scored
38:5333 times
38:54in 53 appearances
38:56during Nuno's tenure
38:57Forest are unchanged
38:59from the opening day
39:00victory over Brentford
39:01the usual
39:06febrile atmosphere
39:07at Selhurst Park
39:08can be upgraded
39:09to Fervent
39:10due to Palace's
39:12failed appeal
39:13to the court of
39:14arbitration
39:14for sport
39:15this fixture
39:16has been labelled

39:38beautifully
39:39slightly behind
39:41the striker
39:42worrying quotes
39:45from Nuno
39:45this week
39:46saying his relationship
39:47has changed
39:48with Evangelos
39:49Maranakis
39:50they're not close

41:41and it's off the post
41:42Mark Gay
41:44the width of the post
41:46away from doubling
41:47Crystal Palace's lead
41:48no changes
41:51from either side
41:52to see what sort of response
41:53Forrest can muster
41:56create a few opportunities
41:58in the first half
41:59didn't take any of them
42:01and Doi's ball
42:03is absolutely
42:05inch perfect
42:05it's Hudson-Odoi
42:07and we are all square
42:12a simply
42:13sensational ball
42:15from Dan-Odoi
42:17switched wings
42:18for this second half
42:20he's already
42:20looked more dangerous
42:21and Hudson-Odoi
42:24managing to find a way
42:26through Henderson
42:27and Forrest right back
42:29in this game
42:301-1
42:33Morgan Gibbs-White
42:43with the flick
42:44and Chris Wood's effort
42:45was saved by Henderson
42:49he was offside anyway
42:51very very tight
42:54either way
42:55Henderson did enough
42:56he's not going to do
42:59anything for his mood
43:00Hughes
43:03and the ball down the line
43:11for Jesus
43:11who's in here
43:13off the frame of the goal
43:17McAtee
43:19Hutchinson
43:20it just opened up
43:24for him here
43:24brilliant ball through
43:29very unfortunate
43:31Henderson was beaten
43:33Edouard
43:38for Saar
43:39he's tripped
43:40oh the offside flag is up
43:43this is going to be
43:45reviewed
43:46for the offside decision
43:48and a potential penalty
43:50now
43:50Saar
43:51is offside
43:52the penalty won't be checked
43:55because
43:55the initial decision
43:56was correct
43:57of offside
43:58McAtee
44:08Alenkovich
44:09helps it off to Murillo
44:11just in the nick of time
44:12Williams
44:14sends it forward
44:15Hutchinson
44:17over the top
44:19couple of very
44:21presentable
44:22opportunities
44:23for Forrest to win this
44:24could this though
44:28be the last we see
44:29of Nuno Espirito
44:31Santos
44:31as head coach
44:33of Nottingham Forest
44:35I think both teams
44:38deserve this point
44:38today
44:39it's a deserved draw
44:40we took the lead
44:41and in the second half
44:42our legs got a little bit
44:45fatigued
44:45we could see that
44:46we have a quite intense
44:47start into the season
44:48and then
44:49the pressure increased
44:50and so I think
44:51Nottingham deserved
44:52the equaliser
44:53and at the end
44:53the result is fair
44:55both halves
44:56I think
44:56we play good
44:57against a very tough team
44:58Palace is a very good team
44:59as a team
45:01well drilled
45:02well organised
45:03no spaces
45:04aggressive
45:05so
45:06we expected
45:07a tough game
45:07it was
45:07but I think
45:08we show character
45:09we play good
45:10How has this week
45:11been for you
45:12being extremely honest
45:13with the press
45:13which has surprised us
45:15what are your feelings
45:15at the moment?
45:17Okay
45:17I'm a person
45:19that thinks a lot
45:20thinks a lot
45:21before
45:21say anything
45:24I say
45:28because I believe
45:29that things
45:30can improve
45:31but now
45:33it's the moment
45:33to ignore the noise
45:34and
45:36just focus on
45:38what I have to do
45:38and my job is clear
45:39You wanted to be honest
45:41though
45:42and you're speaking
45:42like you want a resolution
45:43would you like one
45:44or do you think
45:45there can be one
45:46to this situation?
45:48Of course
45:48of course
45:49there will be a resolution
45:50everything is going
45:50to be okay
45:51for sure
45:51it's the moment
45:53now to sit down
45:54and talk
45:54but it's okay
45:55I think the more
45:56the more
45:57important is
45:58how we play football
46:00how we play football
46:01and I think
46:02we are improving
46:03trying to adjust
46:04some things
46:05and that's where
46:06my focus is
46:07Just finally
46:08they saw you
46:09with the fans
46:09they were chanting
46:10your name
46:10you could hear it
46:11loud and clear
46:12you clearly have a lot
46:12of affection for you
46:14for what you've done
46:14for this club
46:15Last season
46:16I think it's
46:17one year and a half
46:18already that
46:19we joined Forrest
46:20we are delighted
46:21and the journey
46:22that we embraced
46:23last season
46:24will stay forever
46:25with us
46:25it's memorable
46:27and it's beautiful
46:28Not perhaps
46:31all beautiful
46:31at the moment
46:32for Nuno
46:32we'll talk about
46:33that in a moment
46:34Klaxon alert
46:36if you're playing
46:37match of the day
46:37bingo
46:38it was a game
46:38of two halves
46:39Yeah it absolutely
46:41was
46:42we're just going
46:43to do it really
46:43quickly
46:43because I just think
46:45when you try
46:45and break it down
46:46there was not
46:47a great deal
46:47that we could show
46:48you as to why
46:49it changed
46:49for me
46:50how it changed
46:51was the pattern
46:52of play
46:52was very deliberate
46:54here for Forrest
46:55what we saw last year
46:56trying to force
46:57Palace to play the ball
46:58inside the pitcher
46:59where they've got
47:00the overloading numbers
47:01and for Palace
47:01it has to be really crisp
47:03one and two touch football
47:04and as you can see here
47:06what killed Palace
47:08in my opinion
47:08was Munoz and Mitchell
47:10when they lose the ball
47:11it's such a big
47:12long powerful run
47:13to get back
47:14but as the game
47:14developed in the first half
47:16Ismaila Sarr
47:17started coming in
47:17the breakdown
47:18started falling
47:18the pitcher
47:19started to change
47:20and look
47:21as Ismaila
47:21comes onto this
47:22left hand side
47:23you've got Mitchell
47:24on the overlap
47:25good ball into the air
47:26it clears
47:27Mung Gibbs
47:28probably want to look
47:29after a bit better
47:30Will Hughes there
47:31into water
47:31and again
47:31look where the outlet is
47:33it's a great ball
47:33from Munoz
47:34and it's a lovely finish
47:35from Ismaila
47:36it's like he learnt
47:37that from a striker
47:38partner at Watford
47:39I think there Rob
47:40but it's a lovely finish
47:42but then for
47:43Forest we're back
47:44to what they know
47:44look Murillo in there
47:45beating the press
47:46lovely ball in there
47:48and Doy just a lovely
47:49little touch
47:50and I'm going to say
47:51he meant this pass
47:51but it looked like
47:52it went to Chris Wood
47:53and it hooked to the
47:54door in this situation
47:55Mitchell's quick
47:56but he's not going
47:56to catch him
47:57and it's a lovely finish
47:58to the near post
47:59and then again
48:00look here's where
48:00they could have won it
48:01Murillo comes forward
48:02really direct
48:03puts Igor in
48:04as he's here
48:05could he pass it
48:06no good defender
48:07he gets on that left foot
48:07great strike
48:08as it comes back out here
48:10Amari Hutchinson
48:11who they've just brought in
48:12if he would have scored this
48:13this would have been
48:14the same as last year
48:15and we go wow
48:16look how great they've done
48:17they've soaked up
48:18all the pressure
48:18in the first half
48:19look it's all Palace
48:20just by the numbers
48:21and then we flip it
48:21to the second one
48:22you just see
48:23second half
48:24big chances there
48:25hit the woodwork
48:26it would have been
48:27one of those games
48:28we go Forest 1-2-1
48:29and Palace don't know
48:30how they did it
48:31let's deal with the tough stuff
48:33then shall we Rob
48:34because last week
48:35an emphatic victory
48:36they've come
48:37they've taken a point
48:38away from home
48:38but Nuno's not afraid
48:40at the moment
48:41it would seem
48:41to talk about
48:42what is going on
48:43and some of his quotes
48:44today
48:44quite telling
48:45weren't they
48:46I cannot answer the question
48:47about whether I'll be here
48:48at the end of the transfer window
48:49he says
48:49what I know is
48:50I'm working on
48:51trying to do my job
48:52the best I can
48:53I wouldn't ever want
48:54to walk away
48:55I love what I do
48:56he started being
48:58kind of outspoken
48:59the week before
48:59the season started
49:00didn't he
49:00talking about
49:01not being happy
49:02with the players
49:03in terms of
49:04not being ready to go
49:05not that he wasn't
49:06happy with the players
49:07but felt they weren't
49:07ready to go
49:08he's talking a lot
49:10yes
49:11and he's trying to
49:11create a pressure
49:12in a direction
49:13he talks about
49:14the love that he's got
49:15internally and externally
49:17going down
49:18towards the players
49:19and outward
49:20towards the fans
49:21that's fine
49:22it's great
49:23it's working really
49:24really well
49:24for Nottingham Forest
49:25they're happy
49:25upwards there seems
49:27to be all sorts
49:28of issues
49:28there's a power
49:29dynamic going on
49:30you've got Edu
49:30and the owner
49:31so the director
49:32of football
49:33the sporting director
49:34what do you want
49:34to call him
49:34has come in
49:35all powerful
49:36all changing
49:37and it's seemingly
49:38there's a power
49:39shift between him
49:41and the manager
49:42so there's something
49:43that's got to give
49:44and he's pushing
49:45for that thing
49:46to give
49:46which way it's
49:47going to go
49:48I think you can
49:49only see one answer
49:49really in it
49:51and it's going to
49:51have to have some
49:52turnaround for him
49:53to stay in the job
49:54for the rest of the season
49:55it seemed like
49:56everything last season
49:57about Forest
49:57was the togetherness
49:58that was propelling
49:59them forwards
50:00and overachieving
50:01almost in the league
50:02and now they're in
50:03Europe this season
50:03as well
50:04this season should be
50:05one full of joy
50:06shouldn't it
50:06as a player
50:07if you've just
50:07re-signed a contract
50:08or you're a new player
50:09are you starting to feel
50:11a little unsettled
50:12you're certainly asking
50:13you're certainly phoning
50:14your agent
50:15and asking around
50:15is this normal
50:16if you've just come in
50:17is this what normally
50:18happens here
50:19we saw a few instances
50:20last year with the owner
50:21on the pitch
50:22and you think
50:22ok maybe that's
50:23the relationship
50:24but yeah
50:25you'd be looking at
50:26Europe
50:26you'd be looking at
50:27what we're trying to do
50:27can we kick on
50:28and all of the
50:29Forest signings
50:29that they've brought in
50:30well majority of them
50:31have been attacking
50:32players for massive
50:33amounts of money
50:34as well
50:35so you look
50:36and think
50:36wow
50:36they've really
50:37embraced this now
50:39McAtee
50:40Douglas-Louise
50:41Amari Hutchinson
50:42who we spoke about
50:43real top players
50:44that know the league
50:45and know the level
50:46you should all be positive
50:47it just feels to me
50:49that the manager's
50:49trying to create
50:50something here
50:51and I think
50:51Rob alluded to it
50:52perfectly there
50:53Edu's the one thing
50:54that's come in
50:55that's changed
50:55so is there a power
50:56struggle between the two
50:57players thrive in certainty
50:59they thrive in clarity
51:01we saw that with
51:02Forest last season
51:02we saw it with
51:03Crystal Palace
51:03now all of a sudden
51:05that's anything but the case
51:07Palace are now unbeaten
51:08in 12
51:09which is the longest run
51:10they've gone the top
51:11flight since 1990
51:12Oliver Glasner
51:12is clearly doing wonders
51:14there
51:15they've won trophies
51:16they're having a great time
51:17but he also has spoken
51:18about being a little bit
51:20frustrated with their
51:21transfers at the moment
51:22and you can have a look
51:23and see why
51:24they've got money to spend here
51:26it's just so frustrating
51:27for him
51:27he's just delivered
51:28the best season
51:30ever
51:30in their history
51:32and they're embarking
51:33on Europe
51:34with more games
51:35more stresses
51:36more travel
51:37we've already seen it
51:38they're playing on a Thursday
51:39night and a Sunday
51:40lunchtime
51:40that's the first time
51:41they've ever had to
51:42experience that
51:42and they're going to have
51:43to do it with a smaller
51:44squad
51:45without one of their
51:46key players
51:47and they don't have a
51:48direct replacement just yet
51:49so there's going to be a
51:50scramble for them
51:51between now and the end
51:52of the window
51:53it doesn't seem like good
51:53business does it
51:54because that feels like
51:54it drives the price up
51:55when they know you're in a
51:56bit of a desperate
51:57situation
51:57and we spoke about it
51:58earlier on in the day
51:59it feels like clubs do it
52:00backwards
52:01they sell people
52:02say look
52:02we've got 60 million
52:03here to spend
52:04how much can we get
52:06your player for
52:06funny enough it's 60 million
52:07so everyone just keeps
52:09doing this business
52:09backwards
52:10so for me
52:10you know you're going to
52:11lose Eze at some point
52:12go out get your players
52:14in early
52:14get the business done
52:15and then sell them
52:16a little bit like
52:17Newcastle trying to do
52:18with Ezec
52:19okay well if you've missed

52:53weekend in the Premier
52:53League
53:18Enzo Fernandes makes it
53:223-1
53:22and it's into the lead
53:24from Casado
53:25West Hamer disintegrating
53:28in front of a rise here
53:29Arsenal corner
53:32and it's a penalty to Arsenal
53:405-0 and 2 for Jokeresh
53:44right with a corner kick and they force it over the line
53:48they can
53:49Timber's done it again
53:50down and here
53:51it's a penalty to Arsenal
53:535-0 and 2 for Jokeresh
53:57Clever flick that
53:59Don't have to say
54:00come here
54:01it's Dongo Wattara
54:03Wattara's there
54:05Baby don't you like this fear
54:08just what Brentford needed
54:10newly promoted a fan
54:12shooting opportunity
54:14here there is
54:14Josh Cullen the captain
54:17towards Anthony
54:18can he seal it here
54:20oh he can
54:21finally back in the top flight
54:24at Turf Moor
54:25with a huge win
54:26Semenya
54:28Cavaniere
54:30back and blocks the 6-yard area
54:31form the lead
54:33now Richarlison
54:37but look at Johnson
54:38steaming in on the other side
54:39and Johnson scored
54:41Manchester City 0
54:42Tottenham Hotspur 1
54:43that wasn't very wise
54:45a recovery
54:47but Spurs now double their league
54:49the Frank era is off and running
54:51well there's been a lot of talk
54:54about Spurs win
54:55against Manchester City yesterday
54:57but Thomas Frank has really impressed you
54:59you've just found something else
55:00you want to have a look at
55:01yeah I just think
55:02the deliberate movements
55:04that they get as well
55:05and we're going to show you here now
55:06but for me it started down
55:07this right hand side
55:08they just dropped Pedro Poirot down
55:10a little bit to create the space
55:12Manchester City go with the press
55:13it's Mahmood and then Harlan
55:14tries to back it up
55:15just level there
55:16but he just drops down
55:17into a deeper position
55:18it's all about going into kudos
55:20they realise
55:20they're brought in a wonderful play
55:22he doesn't get his touch right here
55:23but that's a
55:23a pattern that you're going to see
55:25as it comes here
55:26look late on the press
55:27into his feet
55:28again into kudos
55:29Sar just runs it out
55:30makes the space
55:31and if they get this right
55:33Johnson's in again
55:34and unfortunately for Man City
55:36this is where 8-0
55:37he actually gets injured
55:38but you see this pattern
55:39of play developing
55:40all the way through
55:40again down this right hand side
55:42Sar now realises the space
55:44they jump the press
55:45go over the top
55:46now on that back line
55:47it's a 1v1 with Richarlison
55:48and John Stones
55:49for Johnson now
55:50as a striker
55:51you're buzzing
55:51you're seeing the number
55:52on the back of his shirt
55:53now I'm going
55:54here now Rico Lewis
55:56realises
55:56oh god I'm in trouble
55:57I need to get back
55:59tries to change
55:59but it's too late
56:00it's a great ball
56:01from Richarlison
56:01and a lovely finish
56:03and this was a pattern
56:04that just kept coming
56:05time and time again
56:06now at this point
56:07they've pinned the back line
56:084v4
56:09as they go now
56:10Palina realises
56:11because they've got
56:12the double pivot
56:12I can run on
56:13this is the best thing
56:14for me
56:15doesn't even look
56:15just putting it
56:16into the area
56:17if he wanted to
56:17he could cut it back
56:18again Johnson
56:19at the back post
56:20can see Rico Lewis
56:22is back
56:22if he was to put
56:23that ball in
56:24a little bit better
56:24they would be in
56:25but for Thomas Frank
56:26again
56:26edge of the box
56:28he's boxed off
56:28they're sealed
56:29but it's constant pressure
56:30and I just think
56:31tactically he's got it
56:32spot on so far
56:33and that involves
56:34communication doesn't it
56:35and players knowing
56:36what they're supposed
56:36to be doing
56:36and his communication
56:38off the pitch
56:39has also been
56:40quite impressive
56:41hasn't it
56:41he's made a statement
56:42there
56:42but you think
56:43on the pitch
56:44as well
56:44it's clear
56:45that this is
56:45one of his strengths
56:47yeah absolutely
56:47in both senses
56:48he's been pragmatic
56:49his tactics are pragmatic
56:51and he makes it clear
56:52and simple for players
56:53and from what they had
56:55last season
56:56what was being asked
56:57of them
56:57was so hard at times
56:59and running them
56:59into the ground
57:00under Pozna Koglu
57:01that you're looking
57:02at the tactics
57:03where the players
57:03were going out
57:04going
57:04we just can't
57:05keep doing this
57:06what's being asked
57:07of us
57:07and now
57:08it's a breath
57:09of fresh air
57:09we talked about
57:10what players thrive in
57:11and it's believing
57:12in a system
57:13that they know
57:14they can do
57:14they've shifted it
57:16around for every game
57:17three different approaches
57:18for each game
57:19that they've had
57:19and you're looking there
57:21the practicality's there
57:22the pragmatic
57:23nature is there
57:26yes
57:26similar thing
57:27and then
57:28off the pitch as well
57:29I think what's really
57:30impressed me
57:31is how you deal
57:31with the players
57:32you're going into
57:32a big club
57:33you've been at Brentford
57:34everyone's on board
57:35then all of a sudden
57:37you've got two rules
57:38don't be an idiot
57:39don't be late
57:40Eve Bissouma
57:41I'm glad you used that word
57:42to describe
57:43yeah
57:43there's other words
57:44but he's
57:44Bissouma's fallen foul
57:46of one or both
57:47of those
57:48and he's looked around
57:49and gone
57:49this is my
57:50this is my opportunity
57:51to stamp my authority
57:52on the team
57:53and all of a sudden
57:54bang
57:55there's the opportunity
57:56he's taken it
57:56everyone understands
57:58it's clear as day
57:59and players appreciate that
58:01oh yeah
58:01no grey areas for players
58:03black or white
58:03just keep it very very simple
58:05and I think what's happened
58:06really well as well
58:07with Bissouma
58:07he has to fall on line now
58:09because they're winning games
58:10they're playing well
58:11so if they were losing
58:12he would have just
58:13gone back to normal
58:13shall we have a quick look
58:14at the table
58:14it's very early days
58:15but Liverpool can join
58:16Arsenal and Tottenham
58:18on six points
58:19if they beat Newcastle
58:20on Monday night
58:21Forrester fourth
58:22at the bottom
58:22for the first time
58:24since 28th of May 23
58:25none of the promoted teams
58:26are in the bottom three
58:27that's something
58:28that's about it from us
58:29lots of us getting used
58:31to new surroundings
58:32this season
