00:00And in the case of this fixture, it absolutely does.
00:04The Liverpool line-up is unchanged from two weeks ago and defeated Chelsea
00:08with Gheorghe Mamadashvili continuing to deputise for the injured Alisson in goal
00:13and with Mohamed Salah four games without a goal
00:16looking to score against Manchester United for a fifth game in a row.
00:20He's two away from 250 in a Liverpool shirt, 16 of them versus United.
00:26Four United, two changes from the team that started against Sunderland
00:29Harry Maguire replaces Lenny Jorow at the back
00:32and Matthias Cunha comes back into the attack.
00:35He takes over from Benjamin Szczesko, who's on the bench.
00:39This weekend and next, players are taking the knee free kick-off
00:43as the Premier League highlights its No Room for Racism campaign
00:46this year with a special focus on education.
00:54Away we go then.
00:55With a game that is watched all over the world, as Arna Slott put it this week.
01:01This Liverpool team desperate to end a run of three successive defeats,
01:06all of those away from home.
01:09Manchester United looking to win successive Premier League games
01:13for the first time in a long time.
01:15They didn't do it all last season.
01:17They've yet to do it this.
01:19They're starting on the front foot.
01:22United all in white.
01:28They're getting their traditional Anfield welcome.
01:35The lift back to Senna Lumans.
01:39One game in Manchester United's goal.
01:42One clean sheet.
01:43Their first of the season came
01:44in the 2-0 win against Sunderland.
01:46Bruno Fernandes.
01:51And it's to Ahmed.
01:54Ahmed slides it through from Bumo.
01:57What a start for Manchester United.
02:00An unbelievable start.
02:02With Brian and Bumo slotting them in front.
02:05Slotting the ball in quite beautifully.
02:08Alexis McAllister.
02:10Down injured.
02:12As United broke away down the right from Bruno Fernandes.
02:15Ball out to Ahmed.
02:16Really nice weighted pass around.
02:18But it still needed some finishing.
02:21And it was some finish.
02:22Some start.
02:24The 217th meeting in all competitions
02:27of these two great football clubs.
02:29That's got to be one of the quickest goals.
02:33McAllister was caught
02:34in between
02:35and Bumo and Van Dyke.
02:37And it might well have been his own captain
02:39that caused the injury.
02:50Salah.
02:51Ahmed has missed it.
02:53Gakpo has got it.
02:55And hits the post.
02:58Seemed absolutely odds on that he'd put that in the net.
03:02Good ball from Salah.
03:04Ahmed gambled and lost the bet.
03:05The Mons were thinking from that point on
03:08a Gakpo goal was a formality.
03:11Not quite.
03:13Maguire.
03:15Sure.
03:16Caused himself a bit of an issue
03:18but recovered before Salah could nick it away from him.
03:20That's Ascuna.
03:27Finding Ahmed.
03:30I might think about taking on Milos Kerkers.
03:32He does.
03:33And tees up the effort
03:34which is pulled wide.
03:35Oh, what a miss that is.
03:38What a chance for Bruno Fernandes
03:39to double up for Manchester United.
03:44Bruno Fernandes still shaking his head after this.
03:50A nice tap to Ahmed.
03:59Here's Mbomo.
04:02On the move into the penalty area.
04:05Mamedashvili spills it.
04:10It's the semblance there
04:11of a slight opening for Mason Mount.
04:14A few nerves coming down from the carpet
04:16seeing Georgi Mamedashvili
04:18not be able to keep his grip on that.
04:28Bruno Fernandes
04:29has a look.
04:30Ahmed is coming.
04:32Touch from Van Dijk prevented.
04:33Oh, there's a chance for Mbomo here.
04:35That's a great tackle by Mamedashvili.
04:37And Mason Mount brings another save from the keeper.
04:42Cunha.
04:44Mishit by Dalo
04:45but Manchester United haven't gone away yet.
04:49Liverpool might have had more of the ball
04:51but the better chances
04:53by and large
04:53have gone Manchester United's way.
04:57Van Dijk.
05:00McAllister.
05:01Isak.
05:03And to Gakpo.
05:08It was deflected.
05:09Did it come off the ball?
05:13Here's Kerkas.
05:16Gakpo.
05:20And that's caught by Lumens
05:22as Salah tried to squeeze in the header.
05:24This, I'm almost sure,
05:27hit some part of the woodwork.
05:29Oh, it did.
05:31Inside of the post
05:31it wasn't away.
05:34Almost like the same
05:35in the build-up to this one
05:37that this team
05:38haven't had those special moments
05:39from the front three
05:40that they had last season.
05:43Only one or two today.
05:46Now Isak
05:46running in behind
05:48but saved by Lumens.
05:50And back up Isak
05:51on it's way behind.
05:54Really good reaction
05:55from Senna Lumens.
05:58Waiting for that first
05:59Premier League goal
06:00for Liverpool.
06:03There's the answer
06:04to the question
06:05what do Knights of the Realm
06:06do during half-time
06:07of major matches?
06:09They share the buttons around.
06:14Salah.
06:17He's left on the floor
06:18by Diogo Dalho
06:19after playing the pass
06:20to Isak.
06:20It will be a Liverpool
06:22free kick.
06:25Salah.
06:28He's gone all the way over
06:29and against the post again.
06:33It's not Cody Gakpo's day.
06:38And Bermot
06:38only Ahmad ahead of him
06:41Mount across to the left
06:43with Bruno Fernandes
06:44there too.
06:44shake of the head
06:51from Gakpo.
06:52Twice
06:53ever so narrowly off target.
06:57Pressure is intensifying
06:58on that Manchester United
06:59penalty area now.
07:00there's Kirk S.
07:05Shaw was beaten to it.
07:07It's come for Mo Salah
07:09and he's put in line.
07:10Would you believe that?
07:12Been speaking throughout the game
07:14of the fact that he hasn't had
07:15as many chances in this game
07:17or many others this season.
07:18There was one.
07:19there was one you'd have
07:23banked on.
07:27Five on five here.
07:30Eketiko.
07:30He's got the chance.
07:35He's making a difference.
07:38But he or somebody else in red
07:40has to make the proper difference
07:42by converting
07:43one of these opportunities.
07:47And it's not starting to
07:48look as though
07:49he's under a bit of stress.
07:52That's time Liverpool
07:53lost four in a row
07:54in all competitions
07:55and it's over a decade ago.
07:59Eketiko.
07:59will drive into the penalty area
08:01and find Wirtz.
08:03It's a real scrap in there.
08:05Wirtz to Chiesa.
08:07Touching by Ganko.
08:14What a noise around Anfield
08:16for that.
08:17United will be saying
08:18offside.
08:20Now let's see.
08:22Oh he's on.
08:24There's no problem there.
08:25Look at the outstretched
08:25leg of Dorgu.
08:27It is 1-1.
08:28Ganko against
08:30Manchester United again.
08:33Every time he starts
08:34a match against them
08:35he scores.
08:39Maguire.
08:40Taken out by Eketiko
08:41but the advantage
08:42is with Manchester United
08:43and Cunha has been found
08:45by Szczesko
08:46and then stopped
08:47and then stopped
08:47by Sabaslai.
08:53Maguire back up to his feet
08:54to try and play a part
08:55in the corner.
09:00Oh Fernandes goes
09:01out of the box
09:02for Mbumo.
09:03And it's blocked
09:03and there's Bruno Fernandes
09:05and there's Maguire.
09:07Manchester United have
09:09their lead back.
09:09Would you believe that?
09:13Shock waves around
09:14Anfield.
09:16And Pumos blast
09:17bounced away.
09:19Bruno Fernandes
09:20with a lovely lift
09:22back into the middle.
09:24And Maguire
09:24had his eyes on it
09:25all the way
09:26onto his forehead.
09:28Liverpool 1
09:29Manchester United 2
09:30with time running out.
09:32Totes of Boslai
09:39he's bringing in
09:39advanced role
09:40once again.
09:41Frimpong taking over
09:42it right back.
09:44Frimpong taking on
09:46Dorgut
09:46and beating him.
09:48Oh wow!
09:50Gagpo had to make it
09:512-2
09:52but this time
09:54no.
09:56Liverpool will be
09:56hard pushed
09:57to get a better chance
09:58to equalise
09:59a second time
10:00than that.
10:02Here's Ruben Amorim
10:03now
10:03on the verge
10:05of one of his
10:05greatest victories
10:06as Manchester United's
10:07boss yet.
10:09Might be the best.
10:13It's the Boslai
10:15it's blocked by Cunha
10:16Chiesa
10:17the offside flag
10:20is up here
10:20against Eketike
10:21as Maynou turns
10:22and volleys the ball
10:23away
10:24and that's it
10:26Manchester United
10:27win at Anfield
10:29for the first time
10:30since January 2016
10:31and they win
10:33back-to-back
10:34Premier League games
10:35for the first time
10:36under Ruben Amorim
10:37and in well over a season
10:39for Liverpool
10:41it's four defeats in a row
10:43for the first time
10:44in almost 11 years
10:45and this one
10:47will really sting.
10:49Harry Maguire
10:50the Manchester United
10:51match winner
10:52Liverpool won
10:53United 2.
10:55it's been a long time
10:57coming
10:57it's been a tough place
10:59for us over the recent years
11:00and
11:01we know how big it is
11:03for our fans
11:04and
11:04yeah
11:05listen
11:06we all have the cliche
11:07of it's only three points
11:08but yeah
11:09it's a lot more than three points
11:10that today.
11:11What was the decisive factor
11:12in winning today?
11:13Spirit
11:13sometimes we struggle
11:15to choose the right moment
11:17to press
11:17they are really good
11:18as a team
11:19they have
11:20really talented players
11:22but the way they compensate everyone
11:25especially in the crosses
11:27the spirit to play
11:29one team that likes to have the ball
11:31but spend so many time today
11:33without the ball
11:34I think the spirit of the team
11:36made the difference.
11:38It's always difficult to play against a team
11:40that defends in a low block
11:41that mainly plays the lone ball
11:44but it makes it even more difficult
11:46if you go 1-0 down
11:47after one minute
11:48after a player of us is on the floor
11:49and then I think
11:51if you would have told me
11:53before the game
11:53that against the low block
11:54against the team
11:55that plays so many lone balls
11:56we would have created
11:57as much chances as we did
11:59I would have not expected us
12:01to lose this game of football.
12:03We control the momentum
12:04like winning a throw win
12:06winning a second ball
12:07pushing the opponent
12:09to their half
12:10sometimes when we won
12:11the second ball
12:12that is really important
12:13and they did that
12:15so much better
12:16than other games.
12:17Any concerns
12:18over the run of results?
12:19If you lose four times in a row
12:20you need to be concerned
12:21because you know
12:23how it works in football
12:25if we can keep bringing
12:26these performances in
12:27we will have a fair chance
12:29of winning more football games
12:30and if we can do a few things
12:32a little bit better
12:32we will even have a better chance
12:34of winning a game of football.
12:36How significant is it
12:37that that's back-to-back
12:38Premier League wins
12:39for the first time in too long?
12:41Yeah, again
12:41that's just
12:42it's embarrassing really
12:43it's not a stat
12:45like we should be
12:46even speaking about
12:47because it's just
12:48embarrassing stat to have
12:49so now that's out of the way
12:50let's try and make it three on
12:52on Saturday against Brighton
12:53because
12:54we've got to start putting
12:55a bit more consistency together
12:57we've got to make sure
12:57we maintain our focus
12:58our heads
12:59but yeah of course
13:00we'll enjoy
13:01enjoy the victory
13:02because it's a
13:03it's a huge victory
13:03for the club.
13:04We'll talk Harry Maguire
13:06in a little while
13:07but Arnaslott
13:08there said
13:09United basically
13:11sat deep
13:12and hit long balls
13:13in the main
13:14do you think
13:14that's slightly unfair?
13:17It's massively unfair
13:18we're going to show you now
13:19I think they
13:19finally started to get it
13:21right down this right-hand side
13:22here
13:22what Ameren's been trying
13:23to work on for a long time
13:24we're going to highlight
13:25Evermo and Diallo
13:27on this right-hand side
13:28you see
13:28they do go along here
13:29from the goalkeeper
13:30they're not expecting
13:31to win the ball
13:32they expect Virgil van Dijk
13:33but they're landing on
13:34second balls
13:35and Brian Obrow here
13:36just makes himself
13:37a nuisance
13:38but this is what
13:39he's talking about here
13:40when he's talking about
13:41pace and power
13:42and the effort
13:43in every moment
13:43look he runs past
13:44two Liverpool players
13:45one of them being
13:46Virgil van Dijk
13:47lovely ball from Diallo
13:48bang
13:49great finish
13:50after one minute there
13:51up and running
13:52but this is where
13:52they want to get to
13:53in their build-up of playing
13:54talk about long balls
13:55this is a pass
13:56this isn't a long ball
13:57great run from
13:58Brian Obrow there
13:59just keeps Kerkhez inside
14:00now allows Diallo
14:011v1
14:02but that run
14:03also occupies
14:04Van Dijk now
14:05so it's opening up
14:05that 1v1
14:06on this right-hand side
14:07as soon as they can
14:08start to come
14:08it opens up spaces
14:09for Bruno Fernandes
14:10and in my opinion
14:11he should score there
14:12but it's just
14:13showcasing again
14:14down this right-hand side
14:15now Kerkhez is a little bit late
14:16leaving that space
14:17for Brian to run into
14:18Van Dijk does not want
14:19to be outside
14:20his 18-yard box
14:21but he is
14:22now look at the spaces
14:23that's opened up
14:23for Cunha
14:24they've got the pace
14:25they've got the power
14:26and they're just
14:26delivering again
14:27and on another day
14:28Mason Mount puts that in
14:29it's a real difficult
14:30chance for him
14:31but what it did do
14:32it created so much
14:33trouble for Virgil Van Dijk
14:35who we normally see
14:36he's poised and controlled
14:36he goes to running
14:37behind there
14:38he stops
14:39he's second-guessing
14:39himself
14:40now he thinks
14:41he should jump
14:41but how many times
14:42have we seen Van Dijk
14:43sliding in
14:44and look at this
14:44we didn't see this
14:45from Liverpool at all
14:46last year
14:46three players being
14:47disappointed in the
14:48reaction
14:49again another day
14:50they could score one
14:51not only that one
14:52they could have scored
14:52here
14:53but it's just again
14:54Man Utd coming down
14:55this right-hand side
14:56for some reason
14:57Karate runs out
14:58this space vacates it
14:59yes the shot's not great
15:01but it just showcased
15:02down that right-hand side
15:03there's so many patterns
15:04of play
15:04they'll be really happy
15:05but the key to it
15:06is consistency
15:07isn't it
15:07the key is to keeping
15:09the same right-wing
15:10back
15:10and Boimo there
15:11the same
15:12so that they can
15:13build up those
15:14relationships
15:14yeah absolutely
15:15and obviously
15:16it's hard for a lot
15:17of energy and effort
15:18to keep doing it
15:19week in week out
15:20but I think now
15:21it's more about the mental
15:22it's more about
15:22can they do it
15:23next week
15:23because I think
15:24going into this game
15:25against Brighton
15:26they're going to be
15:26favourites
15:27they haven't been
15:27favourites in a few
15:28weeks so for them
15:29now to get used
15:30to winning games
15:30and this man can
15:31talk about that
15:32a lot better than me
15:32well I'm not going
15:34to let him talk
15:36about it
15:37I just want to go
15:38back to the goal
15:40that United scored
15:41and now Arna Slott
15:43said oh they did
15:43have a player on the
15:44floor
15:44they didn't make
15:45a big thing of it
15:45afterwards though
15:46didn't Liverpool
15:47because games could
15:48be stopped for a
15:50head injury
15:51but it happens very
15:51quickly does this
15:52I think it's tough
15:53for Michael Oliver
15:53because you can see
15:54the challenge
15:55it's Van Dijk
15:55actually he comes
15:56over the top of
15:57Mbwemo and of
15:58course McAllister
15:59takes the brunt
15:59of his elbow
16:00you see Michael
16:01Oliver in the shot
16:01as well
16:02obviously there's a
16:02coming together
16:03and we see this a lot
16:04in football
16:04we don't know if it's
16:05a serious injury or
16:06not
16:06you can see McAllister
16:07rolling around
16:07so he's not
16:08knocked out
16:08clean out
16:09I know they score
16:10I know Liverpool's
16:11going to be angry
16:12with it
16:12but at the same time
16:13it's not like the
16:13Liverpool players
16:14stopped
16:14they still tried to
16:15get back
16:15they still tried to
16:16defend it
16:16and you see here
16:17Van Dijk's elbow
16:22obviously he's not
16:23happy because it
16:23ends up in the
16:24back of the net
16:24and we just want
16:25to try and balance
16:26it up with you
16:26but this is Maguire
16:27you know
16:28Ekotiki comes and
16:29takes him out
16:29hits a head injury
16:30you see Michael's
16:30about to blow the
16:31whistle again
16:32and he's thought
16:32do you know what
16:33no I can play
16:33an advantage
16:34I'll play on
16:34Maguire's still
16:35on the ground
16:36at this point
16:36and this is where
16:37the corner comes
16:38from so I think
16:38you've got to give
16:39Michael a little bit
16:39of credit
16:40I know Liverpool fans
16:41watching won't be
16:41happy that it
16:42wasn't called up
16:43but it's a difficult
16:44one because you see
16:44a lot of players
16:45going down
16:45getting a knock on
16:46the chest
16:47holding their head
16:47trying to get
16:48the game stopped
16:48because you probably
16:49need three or four
16:51seconds
16:51are you saying
16:52three or four seconds
16:53to work out
16:53whether it's a head
16:54injury that requires
16:56attention
16:57and needs the game
16:58to be stopped
16:59you need three or four
17:00seconds to assess it
17:00and by that time
17:01it was at Mbomo's feet
17:02well it was at his feet
17:03and they were breaking
17:03and again I think
17:04the clock showed
17:05nine seconds
17:06or whatever was
17:06in the back of the net
17:07so there's still
17:07a physio or a doctor
17:09came on within
17:10really short succession
17:11of the collision
17:11so that is important
17:13Michael did need
17:13medical treatment
17:14there's no getting
17:14away from that
17:15but again I think
17:16it's a tough decision
17:17for Michael Oliver
17:17to make
17:18and for me
17:18I thought he refereed
17:20both incidents correctly
17:21Harry Maguire
17:23only his third start
17:25in the league
17:26for Manchester United
17:27this season
17:28Ruben Amarim
17:29said he needed
17:30to bring him in
17:30for his experience
17:32and he talked about
17:33the spirit afterwards
17:34as well
17:34yeah and his leadership
17:35and he used to be
17:37the captain of the
17:38football club
17:38today going to Anfield
17:41and he mentioned
17:42in an interview
17:42back to back ones
17:43it's embarrassing
17:44but some of the stuff
17:45is relatively basic
17:46for a centre half
17:47but being in the
17:48right area
17:48at the right time
17:49and what I love
17:50about Harry Maguire
17:50more than anything
17:51is he's really
17:52dominant in both boxes
17:53you know he clears
17:54things
17:54he heads things
17:55and for me
17:56as an ex-goalkeeper
17:57I love that
17:58you know how many
17:59centre halves
18:00shy away from that
18:00don't want to go
18:01and attack the ball
18:02he's leading from the
18:03back
18:03again that's a
18:03brilliant header
18:04facing his own
18:05goal mark
18:05that could end up
18:06anywhere
18:06you can see him
18:07there pointing
18:08organising
18:08again it's another
18:09difficult ball in
18:10but he deals with it
18:11really well
18:12this is the goal
18:12of course
18:13you just see
18:13keep an eye on
18:14Mahari at the top
18:14of the scene
18:14he just peels off
18:16the back of Kanapi
18:17and again that's
18:18a sheer like
18:19finish with a header
18:20back where it came
18:21from back in the
18:21corner
18:22it's a brilliant
18:23header
18:23and again what
18:24you said
18:24it's his third
18:24start
18:25I think he should
18:25start a lot more
18:26often
18:26you see the
18:26reaction to these
18:27players
18:27he gets a round
18:28of applause
18:29going back in
18:29the dressing room
18:30I remember him
18:30ticking him off
18:31this season
18:31against Chelsea
18:31Chalibah scored
18:32I think Maguire
18:33heads that clear
18:34I don't understand
18:35Ruben ticking him off
18:36and maybe today
18:36maybe the manager
18:37going hang on
18:38with his leadership
18:39qualities and him
18:40at the back
18:40we're a better team
18:41there's so much
18:43talk about Liverpool
18:44and their attacking
18:45players and how
18:45they fit them in
18:46and we will come
18:47on to that
18:48in just a moment
18:49but defensively
18:51they are struggling
18:52this season
18:53they are not at
18:54the level they
18:55were last season
18:56why do you think
18:56that is?
18:58Maybe a little bit
18:58of complacency
18:59from last year
19:00but I think when
19:00you start looking
19:01at these stats
19:01it's very hard
19:02to say
19:03last season
19:04they conceded
19:04three goals
19:04from set pieces
19:05three goals
19:07in general
19:08eleven goals
19:09from this season
19:10already
19:11five from set pieces
19:12it's just
19:13not two clean sheets
19:14as opposed to
19:15five all the last
19:16it just feels like
19:17it's a little bit
19:18disjointed
19:18have they been
19:20a little bit upset
19:21in the transfer market
19:22not getting all the
19:23business that they
19:23want to do
19:24we're speaking about
19:24how much business
19:25they've done
19:25still wanting
19:26Mark Gahey in there
19:27didn't get him in
19:27a lot of players
19:28have been injured
19:29Kerkhez hasn't been
19:30great
19:30Alisson going down
19:31I just feel it's a bit
19:32disjointed at this
19:33moment in time
19:33because they have
19:34all these options
19:35further forward
19:36those options
19:38further forward
19:38still have roles
19:39to play
19:40on set pieces
19:41so when you
19:42change them
19:43it's about
19:44getting those
19:44instructions over
19:45to them as well
19:46isn't it
19:46I think the
19:47recruitment was
19:47top heavy
19:48you know
19:48the strikers
19:49there are lots
19:49of forward
19:49attacking minded
19:50players
19:51it could take
19:52Isak of course
19:53and they didn't
19:54forget about the
19:55back but they
19:56wanted as he says
19:56Gahey
19:57they wanted maybe
19:57a couple more
19:58players in
19:58defensively
19:59but again
20:00if these forward
20:01players are looking
20:02at here on the
20:02screen
20:02their job is to
20:03defend as well
20:04he defends from
20:04the front
20:05and maybe
20:05Arnaud Slott
20:07is just looking
20:08for that perfect
20:08formula
20:09he's trying
20:09different players
20:10in different
20:10positions
20:11but again
20:12that's not
20:12great
20:12they're chopping
20:13and changing
20:13these players
20:13have to work
20:14back
20:14to protect
20:15the likes of
20:15Van Dijk and
20:16Kanadi at the
20:16back
20:17would either of
20:18you be able to
20:19at the moment
20:19say what your
20:21first choice
20:21Liverpool front
20:22three would be
20:23out of those
20:24five
20:24not on current
20:25form but I
20:26think Eketike
20:27has to be
20:28involved
20:28he's scoring
20:29and for some
20:30reason he's
20:30come out to
20:31try and make
20:31other people
20:32fit in
20:32if he's scoring
20:33and playing
20:34leave him in
20:34let Isak earn it
20:35but I'd like to
20:36see him on the
20:37left hand side
20:37where Gap
20:38is I think he
20:38does exactly the
20:39same coming in
20:40and getting that
20:40shot off on that
20:41right hand side
20:41how many times
20:42today when we
20:42watched it we
20:43were like we
20:43know he's coming
20:44in on that
20:44right foot you
20:45just can't stop
20:46him so I
20:46think he needs
20:47to have a
20:47little bit more
20:48game time from
20:49the start but I
20:50do think that
20:51front three just
20:51need to relax a
20:53little bit and
20:53start to think
20:55about the team
20:55as opposed to
20:56themselves I
20:56think they're
20:57all goal first
20:58as opposed to
20:59team first I
21:00think if they
21:00lost today 5-1
21:02and one of them
21:03scores they're
21:04quite happy and
21:04that's not how
21:05a team works
21:06do you think
21:06given the amount
21:08of money that
21:09each and the
21:10majority of those
21:10individuals have
21:11cost can you
21:12understand if
21:13they are as you
21:14say goal first
21:15yeah it's ego
21:16right they've
21:17all been the
21:17main person at
21:18their team that
21:19they once was
21:19at and Salah's
21:20the main man at
21:21Liverpool but
21:22now you've got
21:22Isaac, Vertz
21:23you've got all
21:24these different
21:24players who have
21:25come in who've
21:26been the main
21:26men at their
21:26team and now
21:27it's all of that
21:28balancing ego I
21:29was talking to
21:30you about it in
21:30the green room
21:31like how was
21:32that for you at
21:32Man City when
21:33player after player
21:34come and you
21:34said basically the
21:35culture was if you
21:36weren't good enough
21:36you got moved on
21:37that's what Liverpool
21:38are now moving
21:39into a space where
21:40if you're not good
21:41enough you'll just
21:41get moved on
21:42it's next man up
21:43just back to
21:44Manchester United
21:44at the end there
21:46we talked about
21:47and way more on
21:47one side
21:48Mateus Cunha
21:49who's had a
21:51difficult-ish start
21:52to his United
21:53career in terms of
21:54you know goal
21:54contributions for
21:55example but he
21:57performed a really
21:57important role for
21:58them the last sort of
21:59ten minutes didn't
22:00he?
22:00yeah and I've been
22:01really impressed for
22:01the moment that he
22:02signed even like from
22:03his Instagram post
22:04he's kind of like he
22:05wants all of the
22:06pressure and we
22:07were saying after
22:08about 60 minutes
22:09the guys yesterday
22:10were talking about
22:11the Brazilian lads
22:12travelling and
22:13looking really
22:13tired for Newcastle
22:15everything we're
22:16showing here is in
22:17the 83rd minute and
22:18onwards it was a
22:19really smart play
22:20it takes a little
22:21bit of luck here but
22:22just keeps going
22:23looks after the ball
22:24puts his body in the
22:24way nicking fouls
22:26game management
22:27understanding what to
22:28do and these parts
22:29here are the bits
22:30for me just again
22:32not making it about
22:33people that aren't
22:34there but people
22:35that were once there
22:35before would never
22:36have been doing this
22:37for Man United
22:38being really smart here
22:39look keeps the ball
22:41moving again not
22:42admiring his work
22:43going again and
22:44just these positions
22:45that he's picking up
22:46here is fantastic
22:47if he doesn't go in
22:48here Liverpool keep
22:49the play going
22:50being brave to go
22:52and head it get it
22:53out of there but
22:53this is the one I
22:54like this is right at
22:55the end of the game
22:56look if he's not
22:57there that goes to
22:57Liverpool smart enough
22:59now wins a foul and
23:00then you know just
23:01gets an extra few
23:02seconds when the
23:03cramp kicks in there
23:03very very late
23:04but the intensity of
23:05him and Mbwemo is a
23:06real contrast
23:07oh absolutely but it
23:08also to the pass
23:09yes it just raises
23:11the level as well
23:11it says to everybody
23:12else yes we've
23:13brought these people
23:14in on big money
23:15and yes they expect
23:16to start but if
23:16you're not delivering
23:17the basics
23:18I think what strikes
23:19me off that piece
23:20is the work rate
23:21you're talking about
23:21a Brazilian attacking
23:23player a flair player
23:24guy to bring you
23:25goals but what
23:26Ruben's brought to
23:26the team as you
23:27know what at
23:28Anfield away we
23:29want the wingers
23:29Mbwemo you mentioned
23:30Acuna to track back
23:31work back for your
23:32team and that was a
23:33brilliant display
23:34there was no
23:34throw in arms
23:35there was no all
23:36why me just get
23:37the job done
23:38right Aston Villa
23:40were on a run of
23:42four straight wins in
23:43all competitions as
23:44they headed to the
23:44Tottenham Hotspur
23:45Stadium your
23:46commentator Mark
23:47Scott
23:47while Villa are finally
23:51building some momentum
23:52some feel Spurs
23:53haven't hit top here yet
23:55despite a win today
23:56moving them to within
23:57two points of
23:58leaders Arsenal
23:59Thomas Frank's forced
24:01into two changes
24:02Destiny Adoghi and
24:04Christian Romero are
24:05out injured with
24:06Romero's problem
24:07picked up during the
24:08warm-up Kevin Danso
24:10and Jed Spence come in
24:11Oli Watkins got a knock
24:13on England duty and
24:14moves to the Villa
24:15on the bench today so
24:16Evanguesan steps into
24:18the attack Amadou
24:19Inanna for Lamar
24:20Bogard is there other
24:21change
24:22Martinez
24:26sold a little bit
24:28short there
24:29as Esri Konza
24:31and it's not
24:32cash for the first
24:34corner of the game
24:35to a good area but
24:39cleared away as far as
24:41Spence
24:41Kiddus
24:44that's handy
24:46back across
24:48for Bentancur
24:49Rodrigo Bentancur's
24:54first goal
24:55since December
24:56gives Spurs the lead
24:58inside of five minutes
25:00that's pretty dozy
25:02defending here
25:03from Aston Villa
25:05no real pressure on
25:07the ball
25:07as Kiddus
25:09had time and space
25:11to whip it across
25:12and nobody picking up
25:14Rodrigo Bentancur
25:15who made no mistake
25:17with the first time
25:18sweep home
25:19and Thomas Frank's side
25:21are off to a flyer
25:23goal means that
25:27Spurs will not
25:28have had a 0-0 draw
25:30in their last
25:30127
25:32Premier League
25:33matches now
25:34and Kiddus
25:352-0
25:36but the flag is up
25:38looked outside
25:41at first glance
25:43and
25:44he certainly is
25:45last season
25:47Spurs dropped
25:48the most points
25:48from winning positions
25:49in the Premier League
25:50this season
25:51they haven't let
25:53any slip
25:54once they've
25:55gone ahead
25:55but a bear
25:57had to be careful
25:58Cash was on his shoulder
25:59Gesand now has it
26:00scoops it towards
26:01Cash
26:02well advantage
26:04played here by
26:05Simon Hooper
26:05Villa very nearly
26:06turned it into one
26:07Cash with the snapshot
26:09I think Mercario
26:10would have had it
26:11covered
26:11had it been on target
26:13Konza
26:16Martland chasing this
26:18Danso's got to be
26:19careful
26:20and has done
26:20really well
26:21Odebeir
26:29nice first touch
26:32darting at Cash
26:33and going for goal
26:34Martinez can't hold it
26:35and gets a bit lucky
26:37that the rebound
26:38didn't drop to anyone
26:39in the white shirt
26:40it's a lovely
26:41crossfield switch
26:43a lush
26:43first touch
26:44from Odebeir
26:45here
26:45coming inside
26:47of Cash
26:47the hit
26:48lacked any real
26:49punch
26:49but it
26:50was still spilled
26:51by Martinez
26:52only Watkins
26:54on the bench
26:54Unai Emery
26:55saying that he
26:56arrived
26:58for the game
26:59not
26:59fit
27:00to feature
27:01from the start
27:02Tellen
27:05Konza
27:05in a wrestle
27:06nothing wrong
27:06with the challenge
27:07from Esri Konza
27:08Kamara
27:09McGinn
27:12now Morgan
27:13Rodgers
27:13Simmonds
27:15leaping in
27:16Evan
27:26Rodgers
27:27got it back
27:27and has a go
27:29brilliant
27:29Morgan
27:31Rodgers
27:32with a banger
27:32to bring
27:33Villa level
27:34his first goal
27:37for Villa
27:38this season
27:39is a peach
27:41of a hit
27:41got a bit lucky
27:43initially
27:43as it came off
27:44Xavi Simmonds
27:45into his path
27:46nothing fortunate
27:47about the strike
27:48though
27:49lovely dipper
27:51over the top
27:53of Vicario
27:54and in
27:54to make it
27:56Spurs 1
27:56Villa 1
27:58Rodgers
28:03Simon Hooper
28:07says no foul
28:07Rodgers
28:08has stayed down
28:09Spurs
28:09won't care
28:09about that
28:10Simmonds
28:12Kamara
28:14trying to
28:14push him
28:15wide
28:15will be
28:17a free
28:18kick
28:18oh and
28:19then there's
28:20a little
28:20bit of
28:22fisticuffs
28:22between
28:24Xavi Simmonds
28:25and John
28:25McGinn
28:25Rodgers
28:28wanted a
28:28free kick
28:29there
28:29but the
28:29referee
28:30didn't see
28:31anything wrong
28:32rightly so
28:33Porro
28:36doesn't have a
28:37pop
28:37and he's
28:37hit the
28:39referee
28:39instead
28:39play goes
28:40on
28:40and
28:41Matthias
28:42Tell
28:43should perhaps
28:44have put
28:44Tottenham
28:44back in
28:45front
28:45Villa
28:49would have
28:50had

32:42structure
32:42tactically
32:43individually
32:44confidence
32:44positive
32:45energy
32:45you know
32:46football
32:46is such
32:47a random
32:47game
32:48in
32:48some
32:49ways
32:49so
32:50of course
32:52every single game
32:53no matter
32:54if we win 3-0
32:54or we lose
32:55today
32:56I want
32:56things
32:56to be done
32:57better
32:57I think
32:59overall
33:00I think
33:00we came out
33:01aggressive
33:01intense
33:02very good
33:03high pressure
33:04winning the ball
33:05producing
33:07some very good
33:07moments
33:08especially
33:08the first half
33:09carried on
33:10the first part
33:10of second
33:11half
33:11unfortunately
33:13it was not
33:14enough
33:14of the day
33:14can I just
33:15ask you
33:16about that
33:16goal
33:16what do you
33:17think
33:17the best
33:17part
33:17of it
33:18was
33:18yeah
33:18I think
33:19it was
33:19all our
33:20great
33:20quality
33:21with the
33:21pass
33:21of
33:21Kashi
33:22control
33:23of
33:23Lucas
33:23in the
33:24right
33:24wing
33:24it was
33:25unbelievable
33:25as well
33:26and then
33:27he could
33:27get the
33:28pass
33:28and then
33:29the finish
33:29I tried
33:30to
33:30find
33:31the
33:32bottom
33:33corner
33:33I know
33:34it's hard
33:34with all
33:35the people
33:35in the
33:35middle
33:36so
33:36yeah
33:37happy
33:37it was
33:38good
33:38goal
33:38and
33:39we could
33:39get the
33:40win
33:41well let's
33:42look at that
33:43again
33:43because it's
33:43such a good
33:44goal
33:44isn't it
33:45this is the
33:46best goal
33:46I think I've
33:47seen all
33:47season
33:47me getting
33:48excited
33:48probably
33:49but it
33:49comes from
33:49a corner
33:50here we
33:50see it
33:50come in
33:50they clear
33:52and obviously
33:52McGinn and
33:53Cash are at
33:54the back
33:54McGinn just nods it
33:55back to Cash
33:56but watch this
33:56for a strike
33:57off Cash
33:57it's unbelievable
33:59the technique
34:00mark out to
34:01Dina and his
34:02two touches
34:02are incredible
34:03and after that
34:03obviously
34:04Buendia
34:04there's a bit
34:05of magic
34:05himself
34:05onto his
34:06left foot
34:07swinger
34:07but
34:07you watch
34:08McGinn
34:08keep an eye
34:09on McGinn
34:09here
34:09he nods
34:10it back
34:10and goes
34:10right go
34:11safe
34:11go home
34:12go home
34:12Cash
34:12go
34:12no I
34:13haven't
34:13known of
34:13it
34:14I'm going to
34:15strike it
34:15out
34:15right to
34:16Dina
34:16two brilliant
34:17touches from him
34:18and then obviously
34:19Buendia steps up
34:20to the party
34:21after that
34:21it's just
34:22an unbelievable
34:23this is the angle
34:23this is the angle
34:24this is the technique
34:25look at that technique
34:26honest to God
34:26I was off the sofa
34:27I was excited
34:28I was going
34:28please be a goal
34:29please be a goal
34:30it's like a
34:31PlayStation goal
34:31you see it
34:32on the computer
34:32it is just
34:34world class
34:34for Mastonville
34:35what a goal
34:36and it kind of
34:38the fact that
34:39Buendia got it
34:40obviously there's
34:40plenty of other
34:41stuff in the build up
34:42to Ahmad
34:42but the fact that
34:43Buendia got it
34:44as well
34:44highlights your
34:45second point
34:46in all of this
34:46which was how
34:47crucial the
34:48substitutions were
34:49to changing
34:50Villa's fortunes
34:51well other clubs
34:51have mentioned
34:52substitutions coming on
34:53Arteta mentioned
34:54finishers
34:55you know
34:55Watkins didn't start
34:56today
34:56that was the big news
34:57coming from Tottenham
34:58why is he not starting
34:59he had a knock
34:59for England of course
35:00but these two
35:01off the bench
35:01made a huge
35:02difference Mark
35:02they really did
35:03and that's what
35:04you want from your
35:04subs
35:04you want them to
35:05come on
35:05make a difference
35:06Buendia running
35:07at people
35:07Watkins stretching
35:08people
35:08you know
35:09gets across
35:10into the box
35:11but again
35:12it gave Tottenham
35:13a different problem
35:14in the first half
35:15you know
35:15Malin was coming
35:16short and the
35:17Tottenham players
35:18and defenders
35:18especially were
35:19happy
35:19everything was
35:20in front of them
35:20but now they've
35:21got a different
35:21problem
35:21they've got Watkins
35:22running at them
35:23you know
35:23being progressive
35:24with these runs
35:25being more direct
35:26and here
35:27Buendia again
35:28having awareness
35:28you know
35:29where's the Tottenham
35:30players
35:30and then look
35:30at Watkins' run
35:31brilliant
35:32stretching them
35:32and I know
35:33Mikey van de Ven
35:33is really fast
35:34but they're all
35:35running back
35:35look at him
35:35getting in the box
35:36he could get
35:36on the end
35:37of that perhaps
35:37you know
35:38very impressive
35:39by both Watkins
35:40and again
35:40you know
35:41Malin first half
35:41would have dropped
35:42into the referee
35:42look at Watkins
35:43spinning in the back
35:44a better ball there
35:45and he's in
35:45that 1v1 situation
35:46they just made
35:47a huge difference
35:48gave Tottenham
35:49something they think
35:49about
35:49and this is one
35:50of my favourite
35:51clips
35:51look they got
35:52easy
35:52Buendia could have
35:52let that go
35:53Watkins could have
35:54let that go
35:55but you talk
35:55before about
35:56Liverpool players
35:57defending from the front
35:58that's your two
35:59attacking players
35:59both of them
36:00tracking back
36:01both of them
36:01working hard
36:02for the team
36:02away from home
36:03and look at that
36:04getting them up the pitch
36:05and 1-2 with each other
36:07it's absolutely fantastic
36:08what they did today
36:09really did make a big difference
36:10and that's what you want
36:11positivity off the bench
36:12energy
36:13and give the opposition
36:14the problems
36:15and we can't help
36:15but finishing this goal again
36:16this is one of the subs
36:18this is a different angle
36:19but it just gets better
36:20from every single angle
36:21brilliant
36:21just the stretching
36:23of Watkins as well
36:24it's not just
36:25the runs in behind
36:26it's across the whole
36:27front line isn't it
36:28he doesn't just stick
36:29to one channel
36:30he's happy to go
36:31either right or left
36:32on those clips
36:32yeah and Marlon
36:33is actually a right winger
36:34isn't he
36:34trying to play through the middle
36:35and just use his pace
36:36and he wants to touch the ball
36:38so he keeps coming short
36:39keeps coming short
36:40but Ali's used to just running
36:41anywhere across that line
36:42he sees where the ball is
36:43on the pitch
36:43his pitch geography is really good
36:45and he learns to go right
36:46am I going to run behind
36:47the full back
36:48or do I have to go back
36:49through the middle
36:50as we saw there
36:50with the one over hit
36:51from Paul Torres
36:52but really really good
36:53for Marlon Watkins
36:54and hopefully for England
36:55he can get some form back
36:57and we can have
36:57some competition
36:58of Harry Kane
36:59as far as Tottenham are concerned
37:00I think we've probably
37:02on every other match
37:04of the day
37:05already this season
37:05done a piece on
37:06how simplistic
37:08Tottenham are keeping it
37:09at the back
37:09and the long ball
37:10and so on and so forth
37:11and playing to their strengths
37:13they're not necessarily
37:14as simplistic
37:15in the final third
37:16at the moment
37:17are they?
37:17no but they started it off
37:19and this for me
37:20is where Thomas Frank
37:20is going to have to earn
37:21his coin
37:22because you see it here
37:24this is very early
37:25in the game
37:25this is obviously the goal
37:26but look at Kudas
37:27he gets the ball
37:28two touches
37:29one out of his feet
37:29this is very deliberate
37:30everyone knows now
37:31running the box
37:32it's coming
37:33it's a great ball in
37:34and this is obviously
37:35from the header back
37:36from Paulinho
37:37and Benzo
37:37call with the goal
37:38they score
37:39then you're thinking
37:39right
37:40kick on in
37:41and this is a great build up here
37:42really good from Kudas
37:43comes short
37:44runs in behind
37:44it's great
37:45but then the old tendencies
37:47come back in
37:47because it should be
37:48a touch here
37:48playing Tao into the box
37:50and obviously
37:51he has a 1v1
37:52but look
37:52again
37:53chops
37:53chops
37:54don't know when it's coming in
37:55ends up winning the corner
37:56off of this
37:57but it just kills the momentum
37:59again
37:59big switch of play
38:01now they've got the
38:02overload on the outside
38:04they're going again
38:05just should be a little
38:06simple setback here
38:07to Spence
38:08cross first time
38:09look at the back post
38:102v2
38:11make Villa defend
38:12instead this time
38:13they turn it down
38:14Spence turns it down
38:16it comes out
38:16and the momentum's gone
38:17and Villa are all
38:18out of the seat
38:19and this is the one again
38:20look at Kudas here
38:21you've got Richarlison now
38:22could maybe give him
38:23a bit of leniency
38:25but now you've got a striker in there
38:26but he lets the defender
38:27get back
38:28and again
38:29he just kept turning it down
38:30and this is what I think
38:32Thomas Frank will be looking at
38:33and his team
38:33moving forward
38:34because this is perfect
38:35from Spurs
38:36with the ball back
38:37Tao's driving
38:37and this is what we'll want to see
38:40when you debrief
38:40this is how it would look
38:41so you'll have
38:42now stop it
38:42we've got 5v3
38:441v1 is to go into
38:45the second player
38:46have Javi Simons run on
38:48Torres moves across
38:49and you just slide the ball
38:50into Kudas
38:50he's 1v1
38:51he's having a very easy shot
38:52instead
38:53everyone wants to
38:54have their moment
38:55in the sun
38:56I know
38:57from another
38:58former centre forward
38:59that sits
39:00there from time to time
39:01how infuriating
39:02it is though
39:02for you as a striker
39:04if that ball doesn't go in
39:05straight away
39:06yes it is
39:07it's really difficult
39:08to move the ball around
39:09and if you're talking about
39:10Alan Shearer
39:11then I'm not going to be the one
39:11to tell you how to score goals
39:13but if you
39:13go on
39:14go on
39:14just for a laugh
39:16and to annoy him
39:17go on
39:18I think what he is getting at
39:19but you as a striker
39:20he make a run
39:21and if Kudas and Co
39:22were chopping back
39:23and chopping back
39:23you've got to come back out
39:24and make a second and third run
39:25and by the end you go
39:26I'm not doing another run
39:27what he also does
39:28it allows the defender
39:29to grab you
39:30and grab holding you
39:30and now the defender's in control
39:32if I know when the ball's
39:33coming in the box
39:34I make the movement
39:35and we're in control
39:36and the defender's reacting to me
39:37as opposed to the other way around
39:39so for me
39:39Spurs have got to get back
39:41to just getting it in quicker
39:42and making the defenders defend
39:43they also
39:44just need to improve
39:45their home form a bit
39:46don't they
39:46they're struggling at home
39:47they're struggling at home
39:48this season
39:49look
39:49the fourth worst home record
39:50is very early
39:51I appreciate that
39:52in the Premier League
39:53this season
39:54didn't have a great
39:55home record last season
39:57either
39:57they just need to turn that
39:59into a bit more of a fortress
40:00don't they
40:00yeah
40:01and last year
40:02obviously they were
40:02concentrating on Europe
40:04was the excuse
40:05but what happens is
40:06it starts to bleed into this year
40:07and now you've got to try
40:08and stem the tide
40:09and get it going
40:10and make it a fortress
40:11but the problem is
40:12it's such a nice ground
40:13that everyone enjoys going there
40:14so when you have those moments
40:16to put the ball in the box
40:17and make it nervous
40:18they've got to do that
40:19and they've got to kill teams
40:20much more reaction
40:22and debate

42:58Hedgeham Tom
42:591-0 Chelsea
43:00oh and it's two
43:04Pedro Neto
43:05and it's all
43:06unravelled
43:07for Nottingham
43:07Forest
43:08it's 3-0
43:12Rhys James
43:12the mood darkens
43:14in Nottingham
43:15for Ange
43:16Costa Coglu
43:17things don't look great
43:18less than six weeks
43:20after taking the job
43:21and he was then sacked
43:26as we all know
43:28this evening Sean Dyche
43:29looks like the favourite
43:30to take over
43:31this morning
43:32Marco Silva's name
43:33was also in the running
43:34so we looked at the numbers
43:35for both of those men
43:37in comparison to what
43:38Forest had with Nuno
43:39and the stats that
43:41persuaded them
43:42to give Ange a go
43:43obviously you can see
43:44they're at either end
43:45of this spectrum here
43:47just a couple of those
43:48stats further down
43:49the PPDA
43:50is passes allowed
43:51per defensive action
43:52so that's how quickly
43:53a team wins a ball back
43:55so Nuno's Forest
43:56won the ball back
43:57after the opposition
43:58had had roughly
43:5915 passes
44:00that's kind of
44:01what that means
44:01and then their direct
44:03speed is how quickly
44:04they move the ball
44:05towards the opponent's
44:06goal during the
44:07sequence of possession
44:08but what the numbers
44:09show Troy
44:10is that the closest
44:12to Nuno's stats
44:13are Sean Dyches
44:15yeah I think it's a quick
44:19simple fix for me
44:20for the gaffer to be in
44:22there
44:22obviously worked under
44:23Sean Dyches
44:24and Marco Silva
44:25I think what he's going
44:27to do if Dyches
44:28gets the job
44:29is he's from
44:30Nottingham as well
44:31lives in the area
44:32his staff are obviously
44:33ex-legends
44:34so that instantly
44:35gets the crowd
44:35Steve Stoney
44:36and that's kind of
44:38important because one
44:38of the things that was
44:39thrown at Postacoglu
44:40was that he just
44:42didn't connect with the
44:43area or the club
44:44yeah 100% and that
44:45will instantly get the
44:46fan base up
44:47but I think as well
44:48he tries to go into
44:50places and get some
44:51defensively solid
44:52I was at the game
44:53yesterday they were
44:54so soft and also
44:55the confidence has
44:56gone you talk about
44:57cells the goalkeeper
44:58last year that won
44:59joint was it
45:01golden glove is that
45:02what you call it
45:02no one really cares
45:03about gold
45:03I never got one of
45:05them so you're asking
45:07the wrong man
45:07but joint golden
45:09glove last year
45:10and he's letting in
45:11the goals he's letting
45:12in this season
45:12he's just confidence
45:13because he can't go
45:14from being so good
45:15last year to so
45:16poor this year
45:17that's a confidence
45:18issue Sean will make
45:19sure he goes in and
45:20make sure everyone's
45:21confident they know
45:21their jobs simplify it
45:23and get players playing
45:24the way they want to
45:25not have three centre
45:26halves right up on the
45:27halfway line
45:28I mean there are so
45:29many stats there that
45:30we just saw and we
45:31can go back to it
45:32one of the things that
45:32probably is very simple
45:34to understand is that
45:36with that possession of
45:37Daish's which is very
45:38similar to Nuno's
45:39you could play on the
45:40counter attack
45:40yeah I mean Sean
45:42Dyche for me would
45:43fit it really well
45:44and Nottingham Forest
45:45fans were thinking
45:46we want a big name
45:46and blah blah blah
45:47but I think the
45:48position they're in
45:49then the relegation
45:49zone now as we
45:50said here tonight
45:51you know Maranakis
45:52yesterday made a
45:53decision everyone's
45:53shocked it took 15
45:54minutes after the
45:55game or whatever it
45:55was to sack the
45:56manager but in his
45:57head he's thinking
45:58his alarm bell's
45:58going off here we
45:59are buying in trouble
46:00here so he wants a
46:01safe pair of hands
46:02and if you're looking
46:02at that graph or any
46:03other graph for that
46:04matter you know
46:04Sean Dyche will be a
46:05safe pair of hands
46:06to keep them in the
46:07division and I was
46:08going to joke that
46:08that he reports
46:10tonight he's in
46:10Nottingham but you've
46:12killed me because
46:12you said he lives in
46:13Nottingham so there's a
46:14good chance he's there
46:15just very quickly have
46:17a look at the
46:18signings that came in
46:19in the summer and
46:20this will presumably
46:22whoever the new
46:23manager is they need
46:25to back up the work
46:27of their sporting
46:27director who came in
46:29in Eddie they need
46:30to play some of these
46:31players don't they
46:32well yeah most of
46:33them have been on the
46:34bench as well but
46:35when you look at
46:35Omari Hutchinson and
46:36McAtee they weren't
46:37even in the squad
46:38yesterday they were
46:39fitted available and
46:40in the stands so
46:41whoever it is has
46:42got to really get
46:42hold of the group
46:43but also bring down
46:44those numbers and
46:45start to forge their
46:46team you have to
46:47work with Edu he's
46:48not going anywhere
46:49you have to work
46:49with the ownership
46:50and I just think
46:51Sean Dyche fits this
46:52mould really really
46:53well so hopefully
46:54he gets the job and
46:55hopefully Forrest can
46:56move forward very
46:56very quickly
46:57sorry for ruining
46:58your joke
46:59it was him
47:00let's just show you
47:02the league table
47:03before we go
47:04Liverpool drop to
47:05fourth as a result of
47:07their defeat
47:07Tottenham missed the
47:08chance to go second
47:09Manchester United
47:10are ninth
47:11Villa have gone
47:1211th following their
47:13third consecutive win
47:14West Ham play
47:15Brentford tomorrow
47:16that's it thanks to
47:18Troy and Shea
47:19goodnight
