00:00:00What a freak!

00:00:01Oh my God!

00:00:02Oh, look at that!

00:00:04Absolutely phenomenal!

00:00:06Rooney, a hole!

00:00:08Welcome to Match of the Dead.

00:00:50Good evening.

00:00:51The festive fixtures continue apace.

00:00:53Six games on the way this evening.

00:00:55The last match of the day of 2025.

00:00:58Plenty of goals and incident for Danny Murphy and for Rob Green to discuss.

00:01:02And we will see the much-anticipated clash between Arsenal and Aston Villa.

00:01:06First versus third very shortly.

00:01:09But we're going to begin with a cracker at the London Stadium.

00:01:12West Ham are yet to win a home game.

00:01:14They're up against Brighton in the Premier League in eight previous attempts.

00:01:18Nuno Espirito Santos' side went into this one.

00:01:21Five points from safety.

00:01:22Commentary comes from Vicky Sparks.

00:01:25It's only 23 days since these two last met.

00:01:28When a last-gast Brighton equaliser denied West Ham a precious three points.

00:01:34How desperately the hosts need a victory here tonight.

00:01:38Winners in their last seven.

00:01:39Nuno Espirito Santos brings in Callum Wilson up top in a bid to stop the rot.

00:01:44With Crescencio Somerville dropping to the bench.

00:01:47Brighton are without a win in five themselves.

00:01:49As inconsistency continues to play their season.

00:01:53They make four changes.

00:01:54Danny Welbeck is fit enough to start with Mintec, Milner and Feltman also coming in.

00:01:59Alco, Ruter, Hinchelwood, Gruder and Coppola.

00:02:01The tone is back on the bench after illness.

00:02:13Doubling up there on Callum Wilson.

00:02:15It's like it is his hold-up play.

00:02:17Bowen should be in behind.

00:02:19Is he behind?

00:02:20Gidwick down the lead.

00:02:30And early joy erupts around the London Stadium.

00:02:34It all starts with that long ball forward from Areola.

00:02:38Van Hecker winning the initial header, but then the Brighton don't cover themselves in glory.

00:02:43Bowen too strong.

00:02:44Bowen too fast.

00:02:46Bowen too accurate.

00:02:48West Ham on.

00:02:50Brighton nil.

00:02:53He's pulled forward.

00:02:54Filled away by Debo.

00:02:55Only as far as Welbeck.

00:02:57All very nicely done.

00:02:58It's Mintec.

00:02:59It's Welbeck.

00:03:01It's a penalty.

00:03:06Well, it was a lovely move by Brighton.

00:03:10Welbeck did eventually get the shot away.

00:03:13But this is what the spot kick was for.

00:03:16More clear contact from Kilman.

00:03:21Brighton handed her way back into this.

00:03:27It's Welbeck against Areola.

00:03:33And Welbeck emphatically equalises.

00:03:38Well, he's still questioning the decision.

00:03:41Maximilian Kilman perhaps asking whether Mintec was already going down.

00:03:45With a thumping penalty from Danny Welbeck.

00:03:49Draws Brighton level.

00:03:52Womp womp.

00:03:56Ismintec.

00:03:58Taking on Walker-Peters.

00:04:01And it will be a Brighton corner.

00:04:14Get it off his delivery.

00:04:16Players tumbling everywhere.

00:04:18And it's another penalty.

00:04:20West Ham shell-shocked by two spot kick decisions in quick succession.

00:04:28And how this game has turned on its head.

00:04:31Well, it's Paketa on Dunk.

00:04:36And he does wrestle him down.

00:04:40And again, it's Welbeck against Areola.

00:04:48And Welbeck hits the bar.

00:04:51And can't convert the rebounds.

00:05:00And now it's all kicking off.

00:05:05And tempers all of a sudden are flaring.

00:05:10Well, he went for the Penenka this time, Danny Welbeck.

00:05:15Relief for West Ham.

00:05:18And that is why it all boiled over there a little bit.

00:05:25So a yellow card for Danny Welbeck.

00:05:28A yellow card for Matthias Fernandes.

00:05:35Here's Fernandes.

00:05:36Now Bowen.

00:05:37Fernandes taking off his toes by De Kuyper.

00:05:39But will fall to Bowen.

00:05:42Calioglu's done really well to read that.

00:05:44As though Bowen was wriggling through.

00:05:47Sculls gets it back.

00:05:49It's Callum Wilson.

00:05:50Oh, surely a handball there.

00:05:53Referee Michael Salisbury says no.

00:05:55And West Ham are absolutely aghast.

00:05:59And that is a poor challenge indeed.

00:06:05And it's all in danger of spilling over again.

00:06:09And Catherine Wilson continues to say that should have been a penalty our end.

00:06:15Which VAR are checking.

00:06:17Well, it's against Lewis Dunk.

00:06:22And there is going to be a video review.

00:06:25And I don't think that's a surprise.

00:06:27You can see why West Ham are appealing for it.

00:06:30Yes, it's close range.

00:06:31But the arm is very much out.

00:06:35He's in a natural action.

00:06:40After review.

00:06:42Brighton number five commits a humble offence inside the penalty area.

00:06:47And the final decision is penalty and yellow card.

00:06:56So it is our third spot kick off the game.

00:07:00Penalty.

00:07:01Yellow card.

00:07:04And Dunk's protesting.

00:07:07As if we didn't have enough going on here.

00:07:10West Ham are making a change.

00:07:18So it will be Lucas Paqueta.

00:07:26Who has scored all seven of his penalties in his West Ham career.

00:07:31It's Paqueta against Verbruggen.

00:07:35And Paqueta scores!

00:07:42That's how you do it.

00:07:44And West Ham are back in front.

00:07:50Now the end of a first half full of drama.

00:07:59Here he is again.

00:08:00Karou Matoma.

00:08:07The deflection.

00:08:08And it will be at Brighton corner.

00:08:12Now December is not a happy month for Fabian Herzler.

00:08:16In fact he is yet to win a game in December with Brighton.

00:08:24Difficult one to deal with.

00:08:25And it's in!

00:08:31And Brighton have fall back to level once more.

00:08:35In this topsy-turvy game.

00:08:39And it's a wicked delivery.

00:08:42Areola gets something on it.

00:08:44But only as far as Joel Veltman.

00:08:47His first Brighton goal.

00:08:50Since May 2024.

00:08:54And looking to maintain their momentum with Matoma.

00:08:58He's done well.

00:09:00He's done well.

00:09:01Oh, beautiful.

00:09:02And Areola just does enough.

00:09:06It's a really smart save.

00:09:08But that would have been a beautiful Brighton goal.

00:09:13Ruta getting involved.

00:09:15He's done really well.

00:09:17He's cleared away by 18-year-old Ezra Mayers.

00:09:21And they are finishing this game strongly.

00:09:25He scored late on in the draw with West Ham earlier this month.

00:09:30Can I find a late winner?

00:09:33Deep into the six-yard box once again.

00:09:36And headed off the line.

00:09:41Areola stranded that time.

00:09:43West Ham under real pressure trying to clear.

00:09:46And eventually will do so.

00:09:48What a vital clearance by Malpropanos to keep it at 2-2.

00:09:54It's only the second time in Premier League history that three penalties have been awarded in the first half of

00:09:59a game.

00:09:59What was it like watching on from the touchline?

00:10:02It was confusing.

00:10:03I was just thinking.

00:10:05I think honestly the referees must again speak with the players.

00:10:11Try to really explain to them which is contact, which is excessive, which can be fouled.

00:10:16Because we see so many things, so many contacts in the box now in set pieces.

00:10:21That is confusing.

00:10:22Not a result we can't be happy with.

00:10:25But in the end we tried it.

00:10:27We gave everything.

00:10:28And in some moments we missed a little bit of quality.

00:10:32In some moments we had a lack of luck.

00:10:36And therefore it's only a 2-2.

00:10:39So disappointing from a Brighton point of view.

00:10:41But for West Ham Rob, this is something you've highlighted before.

00:10:45Is there inability to hold on to a lead?

00:10:47Yeah, it's becoming a real issue.

00:10:48And it has become a massive issue now for Nuno.

00:10:51You're looking at the amount of games that they've got in front and not held on to that 1-0

00:10:56lead.

00:10:56You're looking at the only game that they have done was against Nuno back in August.

00:11:00And I highlighted it here against Bournemouth.

00:11:03And it was the same again today.

00:11:05In the second half they came out a goal up and just went back into the shells and just decided

00:11:11to defend, defend, defend.

00:11:13And they're not good enough to do that.

00:11:14They can't do that right now.

00:11:16You look at the errors from Areola from crosses.

00:11:18You look at Kilman giving away a penalty.

00:11:20His hand in the second goal as well.

00:11:22Paqueta's dealing with dunk for a penalty.

00:11:25There's too many errors within the side just as an overall picture to say one goal is enough.

00:11:30So it's a really difficult quandary for Nuno to come into.

00:11:34And they're now looking at their next few fixtures as kind of must-win games.

00:11:38This is where they need to start putting a run of form together that can take them out of the

00:11:44bottom three.

00:11:44Are there winnable fixtures in there, do you think?

00:11:46Well, they had winnable fixtures.

00:11:47They had tonight.

00:11:48They have Fulham at the weekend, which they lost one point from two home games.

00:11:52And now you're going to Wolves.

00:11:53Wolves will be looking at that after tonight's result and saying we can win a game.

00:11:57We can take a step forwards here.

00:11:59They're looking to improve.

00:12:00So all of a sudden the game against Wolves, a game against Forest.

00:12:04You're thinking they're four points behind in the relegation zone.

00:12:08So from there, just to be in touch, just to attract players to the club in January is going to

00:12:14be critical.

00:12:15So I think this week is going to be huge.

00:12:17We heard Fabian Herzler's frustration, possibly fueled by the fact that at one all, Danny Welbeck had a go at

00:12:24a Panenka.

00:12:26I'm a big fan of Danny Welbeck, but I'm not a big fan of the Panenka.

00:12:29You surprised me.

00:12:31I think maybe Messi, Ronaldo, Zidane type players, but he's got a wonderful opportunity to put West Ham in a

00:12:36real bad position here.

00:12:37I think he's overthinking it because he's already taken one.

00:12:41You know, that's going to be in his head because he doesn't want to do the same thing.

00:12:44And that's not what you do.

00:12:45You either go one way or the other as firm and as hard as you can.

00:12:48If they had gone in the lead at that point, I'm not sure West Ham would have been able to

00:12:52come back.

00:12:52But I suppose, look, you can tell that West Ham players aren't happy with it, which is bizarre because he's

00:12:58missed.

00:12:58So you might as well congratulate him for trying to be too cheeky.

00:13:01But I suppose if one player this season's earned the right, maybe Danny has.

00:13:04And Fabian Herzler still not won a league game in December either.

00:13:07That run continues.

00:13:08Now, we will bring you that match between first and third very shortly.

00:13:12We're just waiting for the manager's interviews.

00:13:14But to Stamford Bridge next.

00:13:16Chelsea looking to bounce back from defeat by Aston Villa three days ago against Bournemouth without a win in their

00:13:21last nine.

00:13:22Jonathan Pearce is your commentator.

00:13:25Rumours have been flying about the future of Chelsea manager Enzo Mureska following that Villa defeat just 169 days after

00:13:33he took Chelsea to the Club World Cup.

00:13:35Antoine Semenyo's much-touted move to Manchester City won't help Bournemouth boss Randoni Iriola as he suffers his worst run

00:13:43in three years.

00:13:44Chelsea unbeaten in eight league games against Bournemouth make five changes from the Villa defeat.

00:13:49In come Achimpong, Pofana, Gusto, Estavao and Dilap.

00:13:53Cucurea is missing with a hamstring injury.

00:13:55This is almost certainly then a farewell game for Antoine Semenyo who's had a hand in 44% of their

00:14:01goals this season.

00:14:02Four changes for them. In come Hill for a first start in nearly two months.

00:14:07Brooks, Gleybert and Evan Nielsen.

00:14:10Chelsea have lost just one of their last 22 home calendar year-ending games.

00:14:20Poglione looking for over Nielsen, he's got beyond the Chelsea defence.

00:14:23It's touched to get very wide and the block was there by Fofana.

00:14:33Semenyo with the long throw.

00:14:34Again, it's not dealt with very well, Brooks has got it in, has he?

00:14:38Has it out? Bournemouth lead.

00:14:40Terrible Chelsea defender.

00:14:43They failed to cut out the long throw and Brooks had two stabs at it.

00:14:48Bournemouth needed a bounce back from that horror defensive show at Brentford at the weekend, lead in six minutes.

00:14:56Look at the number of blue shirts in there.

00:14:58And yet they don't deal with the first one.

00:15:01Brooks' effort is saved by Sanchez, he's hungry to get to the second.

00:15:05Almost got to the second to keep it out.

00:15:07And then Brooks made short.

00:15:101-0.

00:15:111-0.

00:15:18Decedo whips one cleanly away to Esteval.

00:15:23Isolated with Truffaut.

00:15:24This could be a key area of the game, he's gone beyond him, Semenyo came in.

00:15:29Chelsea fans won the penalty.

00:15:32One given.

00:15:33And now Bournemouth look to break away.

00:15:36And Evan Ilsen carries on, he was too strong for the defender.

00:15:40Can't beat the goalkeeper.

00:15:43And now it's up to Craig Pawson in the VAR booth.

00:15:47To have a check.

00:15:49Good run by the youngster.

00:15:51Semenyo seemed to clip his heels.

00:15:53How much contact was there?

00:15:55There's a knock of Semenyo's right knee on the back of Esteval's leg.

00:16:02He's been told to go and review it.

00:16:04And I'm pretty sure that Sam Barrett will give the penalty here.

00:16:10There's contact there.

00:16:11Back of his calf.

00:16:12And then Esteval does clip his own legs.

00:16:15There can only be one decision here.

00:16:17I find a decision that the penalty kicked.

00:16:19And Donny Irreola thinks that's very, very soft.

00:16:26Oh, Cole Palmer will take the penalty.

00:16:29Big moment.

00:16:34Towards Palmer against his former club mate, Petrovic.

00:16:40Oh, nearly got there.

00:16:42Nearly got there.

00:16:43But it's 1-1.

00:16:44Oh, not a way he would have wanted to end his former career Semenyo by giving away a penalty.

00:16:49Should it end tonight.

00:16:53Goalkeeper gets right.

00:16:55Might have got a finger tip onto it, but not enough.

00:17:04Oh, that's a poor ball infield by Achenpot.

00:17:07And it's set up here for Brooks for a second.

00:17:10Good save.

00:17:11Really very good save, Robert Sanchez.

00:17:13Strong left hand.

00:17:17Mistake there.

00:17:18Quecedo doesn't win the challenge.

00:17:20He's on a yellow card, of course.

00:17:22Evan Ilsen, good ball into Brooks.

00:17:25And it's a good recovery by Sanchez because he was diving away to his other side.

00:17:39This is Quecedo.

00:17:42Enzo Fernandes to Garnaccio.

00:17:45Back to Enzo Fernandes.

00:17:46Worked the space very well.

00:17:49And scores a lovely goal.

00:17:51And Chelsea are ahead.

00:17:55Smashing finish, that.

00:17:59Oh, they've turned the game on its head.

00:18:02Bournemouth initially gave the ball away, never really recovered from that mistake.

00:18:08Arnacho turned inside Jimenez, set up Fernandes.

00:18:12He took the touch to get away from his defenders into that space.

00:18:17Watch the touch of Fernandes, lovely that.

00:18:20And Scott came across.

00:18:22And it's a fine finish too.

00:18:24And it's 2-1 Chelsea.

00:18:28Go, go, go, go!

00:18:32Go, go, go!

00:18:36The tournament defending by Wesley Profana, but it's a Bournemouth throw.

00:18:43That's a menu will take it long.

00:18:51It's Blanc through the zone penalty area, and in, and Bournemouth are out again.

00:18:56It's Cliveau and Bournemouth are back in the game.

00:18:59Cliveau makes it 2-2.

00:19:03Chelsea are hapless, defending their penalty area at set pieces.

00:19:09It was a Chelsea head that nodded it back through his own penalty area.

00:19:14And in came Cliveau, all alone, to stab it past Robert Sanchez, who had no chance.

00:19:28Just have a near around the back.

00:19:30Kusko now, did that come off his arm?

00:19:33Bournemouth are adamant.

00:19:37Very high up on his arm.

00:19:40That's not a handball.

00:19:42I don't think that's a handball.

00:19:44They are checking because they have to.

00:19:46It's been checked and cleared, the ball comes down off his shoulder area.

00:19:51In comes the corner, headed up by Casado.

00:19:54Possible break is on here, Esteval, Palmer.

00:19:56Look at the players running up on the left-hand side.

00:19:58Both sides, Neto is there with him.

00:20:00Palmer has a look, releases Neto.

00:20:03De Lapp's in the middle, beautiful breakaway, no finish.

00:20:07Couldn't quite climb above the ball.

00:20:10And make definitive contact, but it's a lovely Chelsea break that.

00:20:14It's a big chance too, for young Liam De Lapp.

00:20:17Esteval does so well.

00:20:19As does Palmer.

00:20:21Strong, positive carry.

00:20:23Perfect release.

00:20:25Early ball in.

00:20:27Lovely move, deserved better.

00:20:37Esteval.

00:20:40Good well.

00:20:41Good well, good save, Georgi Petrovic.

00:20:44A little pleasing.

00:20:46At his old club.

00:20:49Chelsea are getting stronger.

00:20:57Sonesi.

00:21:00Across all the way through.

00:21:03Adley pulls it better.

00:21:04It's soon now.

00:21:05Oh, that was his opportunity.

00:21:08That was his moment.

00:21:10Over it went.

00:21:12Lovely setup here by Adley.

00:21:14took it early from an awkward height

00:21:19terrific first half

00:21:21second half more measured

00:21:23more cautious

00:21:25finishes 2-2

00:21:27the big question now for Bournemouth

00:21:29of course

00:21:30how do they deal with the future

00:21:33without Antoine Semenya

00:21:34because here he is clearly

00:21:37waving goodbye

00:21:41I think the points we are getting

00:21:42both games against Chelsea

00:21:44even the game against United

00:21:45games where

00:21:48you feel you've had a good performance

00:21:50and it's not a great reward

00:21:52one point, but it's true that

00:21:53before coming probably

00:21:55it's a point that you will have taken

00:21:57I think we put Bournemouth

00:21:59to defend in one box

00:22:01for many, many minutes

00:22:04but the final product

00:22:06and the last third

00:22:08to score another goal

00:22:11more to win the game

00:22:12or to kill the game

00:22:14that was missing today

00:22:15and it's something that

00:22:17we need to find

00:22:19and we need to improve

00:22:21as soon as I can

00:22:22At the end you'll have seen

00:22:23the reaction from the fans

00:22:24towards Antoine Semenya

00:22:25and indeed his teammates

00:22:27as he seemed to be waving

00:22:28farewell to the club

00:22:30how devastating is that for you

00:22:32do you just move on?

00:22:34No, Antoine is a massive player

00:22:36for us and he will be still with us

00:22:39it's not the last game

00:22:40he has played for us

00:22:41definitely

00:22:43We'll come to Antoine Semenya's future

00:22:45in just a second

00:22:46it's yet another

00:22:47high scoring away game

00:22:48involving Bournemouth

00:22:49but they haven't won one

00:22:50in ten in a row now

00:22:52Danny

00:22:52so while it might be

00:22:53vastly entertaining

00:22:54it's not necessarily

00:22:55effective for them

00:22:56No, but it's great to watch

00:22:58for us

00:22:58I thought Chelsea

00:22:59actually second half

00:23:00were pretty good

00:23:00Estava was a joy to watch

00:23:01but first half

00:23:02a couple of concerns for them

00:23:04one was how often

00:23:05Bournemouth opened them up

00:23:06and how well they played

00:23:08and secondly

00:23:09set plays

00:23:09it's becoming a problem

00:23:10for Chelsea

00:23:11they conceded two today

00:23:12from long throw-ins

00:23:15at home

00:23:16you've got to do better

00:23:17well in any game

00:23:17but especially at home

00:23:18when you're trying to

00:23:18dominate a team

00:23:20Semenya

00:23:21we know where he's trying

00:23:22to get as far as he can

00:23:23there's lots of bodies

00:23:24in there for Chelsea

00:23:24they don't get the first contact

00:23:26which is crucial

00:23:28and then

00:23:28they don't follow runners

00:23:30on the back post

00:23:30so we can see

00:23:31Hill gets the first contact

00:23:32and then Brooks

00:23:33runs off the back

00:23:34of Garnaccio

00:23:34he's not watching the man

00:23:35he's watching the ball

00:23:37and then they give themselves

00:23:38a mountain to climb

00:23:39which they climb

00:23:39and do well

00:23:40and get back in the game

00:23:41at 2-1

00:23:41and then what happens

00:23:43once it's happened once

00:23:44it can't happen again

00:23:44the target's the same

00:23:46there's nothing different

00:23:48misreads the ball

00:23:49chalibre there

00:23:50but it's the back post

00:23:51that's the problem

00:23:51it's the second

00:23:52the second ball

00:23:53the runner

00:23:54and again unfortunately

00:23:55it's Garnaccio

00:23:56and no surprise really

00:23:57he was taken off

00:23:58half time

00:23:58I think probably

00:23:59because of these two lapses

00:24:00in concentration

00:24:01you've got to be switched on

00:24:02you can't give teams

00:24:04goals like that

00:24:05and expect to win

00:24:05football matches

00:24:06one of the biggest strengths

00:24:07of Chelsea this season

00:24:08is Robert Sanchez

00:24:09his ability to come

00:24:10and claim these balls

00:24:11they have five players

00:24:12in between him

00:24:13and the ball

00:24:14at times there

00:24:15and completely negated

00:24:16the opportunity

00:24:17for him to come

00:24:18and they suffered from that

00:24:19you could look at this

00:24:21as Chelsea

00:24:21having been a goal down

00:24:22and managing to get

00:24:23a point from it

00:24:24or

00:24:24you could look at

00:24:25what's been more of a

00:24:26pattern for them

00:24:27this season

00:24:27which is

00:24:28dropping points

00:24:29from winning positions

00:24:30yeah

00:24:31I think the game

00:24:32was a nice summary

00:24:33of how their season's

00:24:34gone at times

00:24:34and it's the chaos

00:24:35that they can't deal with

00:24:37Bournemouth brought an energy

00:24:38and a chaos to the game

00:24:39much like Aston Villa

00:24:40did at the weekend

00:24:41in the second half

00:24:42and it's their lack

00:24:43of ability to respond

00:24:44and keep control of games

00:24:46has been the real issue

00:24:47for Chelsea

00:24:48not Antoine Semenya's

00:24:50last game in a Bournemouth shirt

00:24:51you think Danny

00:24:52or certainly that's what

00:24:53Andoni Aroula said

00:24:54well maybe they've got

00:24:55a practice match tomorrow

00:24:56or something like that

00:24:57I very rarely see scenes

00:24:59at the end

00:24:59where someone's

00:25:00saying goodbyes

00:25:01and even hugging

00:25:01his teammates

00:25:02he's a player in demand

00:25:03for obvious reasons

00:25:04he'll definitely benefit

00:25:06whichever squad he goes to

00:25:08Bournemouth are cute

00:25:09and clever in the market

00:25:10I'm sure they've already

00:25:10got a replacement

00:25:11but it's hard for the manager

00:25:12to come out and say

00:25:13yes he's on his way

00:25:14even if they do get

00:25:16that replacement

00:25:16even if it is the right

00:25:17player obviously

00:25:18you'd expect they'd take

00:25:19a little while to settle in

00:25:21are either of you

00:25:22concerned about

00:25:23Bournemouth this season?

00:25:24I thought the recent weeks

00:25:26the run that they've had

00:25:27they've had real difficulty

00:25:28with the energy

00:25:29they've been void of energy

00:25:30something very un-Bournemouth like

00:25:32this looked more like

00:25:34the Bournemouth of old

00:25:35more like what we've been

00:25:36used to seeing in the

00:25:37Premier League

00:25:37if they stick with what

00:25:38they had tonight

00:25:39they'll be okay

00:25:40so now to top

00:25:42versus third

00:25:43at the Emirates

00:25:44with just three points

00:25:45separating the two sides

00:25:46Aston Villa

00:25:47on a run of 11 straight wins

00:25:49in all competitions

00:25:50Arsenal's last defeat

00:25:52came against Villa

00:26:04the defeat at Villa Park

00:26:06is Arsenal's only reverse

00:26:07in the last 24 matches

00:26:08while Villa's 11 game

00:26:10winning run

00:26:11has equaled their

00:26:12club record tally

00:33:56Zubamendi

00:33:57plenty of red and white shirts

00:33:59racing forward here

00:34:00Trossard leads the way

00:34:02into Gabriel Jesus

00:34:03oh it's his first touch

00:34:08oh he's waited a long time for this

00:34:11he's missed most of the calendar year with a cruciate injury

00:34:17he's only recently come back

00:34:20and he's only just come on the field tonight

00:34:23it's brilliant from the Brazilian

00:34:27Arsenal finishing

00:34:2920-25 in style

00:34:31they are the team to beat

00:34:33in the Premier League title race

00:34:41here's Marlon

00:34:46good ball into Watkins

00:34:50and it's a brilliant save by David Raya

00:34:55goodness me that was astonishing

00:34:58how on earth did Villa not get a goal there

00:35:00again on the follow up

00:35:01David Raya

00:35:02it's like there's some sort of magnetic field around his goal

00:35:06good play by Jimmo

00:35:08into Marlon

00:35:09that's Gabriel Jesus back

00:35:11and Daniel Marlon still going here

00:35:13superb play from Daniel Marlon

00:35:15and Watkins scores

00:35:17on his 30th birthday

00:35:19another goal for Oli Watkins

00:35:21against Arsenal

00:35:23Watkins who has scored

00:35:26six league goals

00:35:27against the Gunners

00:35:29over the years

00:35:30has himself another one here

00:35:34sweeping it home

00:35:35from close range

00:35:37it was

00:35:38excellent play

00:35:39from Daniel Marlon

00:35:40who somehow got it

00:35:41through David Raya's legs

00:35:45what a second half

00:35:47that was tonight

00:35:47yeah it was amazing

00:35:49we knew

00:35:50we played against a team

00:35:51that won

00:35:5211 games in a row

00:35:53that are in a great emotional state

00:35:55they are a really fabulous team

00:35:57they

00:35:58keep you on the edge

00:35:59in a reaction

00:36:01and in the first half

00:36:02in the first 10 minutes

00:36:03we missed time

00:36:04a few things

00:36:05and they opened us up

00:36:06and they are really dangerous

00:36:07there

00:36:07after we had some more control

00:36:08we came up in the second half

00:36:10and I thought we were outstanding

00:36:11today we did

00:36:13very good first half

00:36:15differently than

00:36:16the last match in Chelsea

00:36:17and of course

00:36:18we were more or less

00:36:20competing well

00:36:20and even

00:36:21getting our momentum

00:36:23and creating chances

00:36:24but the second half

00:36:26the first goal

00:36:26changed everything

00:36:27and

00:36:29we finished

00:36:29losing

00:36:30but

00:36:33now with the players

00:36:34my analysis

00:36:35of course

00:36:35is

00:36:37after the match

00:36:38how we did

00:36:39here 90 minutes

00:36:40but overall

00:36:41the most important

00:36:43for us

00:36:43is to understand

00:36:44overall

00:36:45how we are

00:36:46well Arsenal have had

00:36:47the results

00:36:48of late

00:36:49if not necessarily

00:36:50the performances

00:36:51what a time

00:36:52for them to put in

00:36:53particularly

00:36:54that second half

00:36:55performance Danny

00:36:56absolutely

00:36:57their performance

00:36:58was a big statement

00:36:59it was powerful

00:37:00full of quality

00:37:01showed their strength

00:37:02in depth

00:37:03let's not forget

00:37:04they didn't have

00:37:04Declan Rice

00:37:05one of the most

00:37:05important players

00:37:07but I thought

00:37:08in the first half

00:37:08when Villa were

00:37:09pretty good actually

00:37:10and caused

00:37:11Arsenal problems

00:37:13that partnership

00:37:14that's back together

00:37:15of Gabriel and Saliba

00:37:17gave Arsenal

00:37:18the platform

00:37:19to then go on

00:37:20to have that

00:37:20wonderful second half

00:37:21performance

00:37:22now Villa

00:37:23played through the press

00:37:24beautifully at times

00:37:25in the first half

00:37:25and look at the pace

00:37:26of Gabriel

00:37:27and Saliba there

00:37:28to then get Rodgers

00:37:30to play a poor ball

00:37:31and Capier

00:37:33sees out the danger

00:37:35again

00:37:35you can see Villa

00:37:37waiting

00:37:38to win the ball

00:37:39back on the transition

00:37:40which they do

00:37:41really well

00:37:41and then they play through

00:37:43and once they do

00:37:44because Arsenal

00:37:45go after teams at home

00:37:46which is right as well

00:37:47because they really

00:37:47dominate teams at home

00:37:48generally

00:37:49when they get into

00:37:50these positions

00:37:51the two are always

00:37:52close together

00:37:52they're always communicating

00:37:53the distances are good

00:37:55and here basically

00:37:56the angle's really

00:37:57difficult there

00:37:58for Watkins to do

00:37:59because Saliba's so patient

00:38:00he's just got this

00:38:01calmness

00:38:01he doesn't panic

00:38:03there they are

00:38:04on the press

00:38:04that we're talking about

00:38:05they commit men forward

00:38:06and the reason they do it

00:38:08is because they believe

00:38:09and trust their defenders

00:38:10to play one-on-one

00:38:11and to cope

00:38:12and there's none better

00:38:14really than Saliba

00:38:14you know

00:38:15when he's on top

00:38:16of his game

00:38:17right position again

00:38:18he's got the athleticism

00:38:19and pace

00:38:19calm

00:38:20no danger

00:38:20ok the ball

00:38:21could have been better

00:38:22but time and time again

00:38:23we saw them

00:38:25break on Arsenal

00:38:27and the Arsenal

00:38:28back forward

00:38:28don't panic

00:38:29I mean

00:38:29this here

00:38:30from Saliba

00:38:31he doesn't know

00:38:31that this is going to be

00:38:32given a couple of inches

00:38:33offside

00:38:33look at this

00:38:34that is just phenomenal

00:38:36and that's what you get

00:38:37when you get those two together

00:38:38you get the athleticism

00:38:39the calmness

00:38:40and the fear factor

00:38:41I think it gives them

00:38:42a great platform

00:38:43to really go after teams

00:38:44and of course

00:38:45the game they lost

00:38:46at Villa

00:38:46neither of them

00:38:47were playing

00:38:48and while Gabriel

00:38:49and Saliba

00:38:50provide that platform

00:38:51for Arsenal

00:38:52on the pitch

00:38:53there's also

00:38:53the way in which

00:38:55the goal

00:38:55was conceded

00:38:56that allowed them

00:38:57to take advantage

00:38:58of the fact that Villa

00:38:59were then trying to get

00:38:59back into the game

00:39:00and it was an error

00:39:01from Emi Martinez

00:39:02yeah and it was Gabriel

00:39:03it was one of the two

00:39:04of them getting in the way

00:39:05getting in

00:39:06making any use of himself

00:39:07as he always does

00:39:08as he does

00:39:09yeah and Unai Emery

00:39:10says it himself

00:39:11it changed the game

00:39:12and that's what got

00:39:13the ball rolling

00:39:14and we knew it was coming

00:39:16we've seen it before

00:39:17at Brentford this season

00:39:18we've seen it at Leeds

00:39:19and we saw it on Saturday

00:39:20at Chelsea

00:39:21where Martinez

00:39:22just gets preoccupied

00:39:23with the players around him

00:39:24he's got two there

00:39:25he's fighting there

00:39:26and he can't come for the ball

00:39:27because he's just worried

00:39:28about what's around him

00:39:29and again tonight

00:39:31he's preoccupied

00:39:32he's worried

00:39:32and from there

00:39:33you know he's going to be there

00:39:36you know he's going to be there

00:39:37Saliba's around you

00:39:38you can see him

00:39:38you can touch him

00:39:39and as a keeper

00:39:40if you're going up

00:39:41amongst bodies

00:39:42and you're going to bring it down

00:39:45amongst heads

00:39:45you've got to punch it

00:39:46he doesn't do that

00:39:47two minutes later

00:39:48Villa reacts

00:39:50and they've got their men

00:39:51in or around the players

00:39:52protecting Martinez

00:39:54now this has been going on

00:39:55for weeks

00:39:56this has been going on

00:39:57since the start of the season

00:39:58so I don't know why

00:39:59it takes mid-game

00:40:00against Arsenal

00:40:01for it to happen again

00:40:03three days after it happening

00:40:04at the weekend

00:40:05for them to react

00:40:06it seems like

00:40:07it's a bit of a miss

00:40:08and it

00:40:08the manager said

00:40:09it cost them

00:40:10that said

00:40:11it was a stunning performance

00:40:12from Arsenal

00:40:13in the second half

00:40:14in particular

00:40:15they then open up

00:40:16that six point gap

00:40:17over Aston Villa

00:40:18suddenly it starts to look

00:40:20a lot more comfortable

00:40:21and yes

00:40:21Manchester City

00:40:22have got a game in hand

00:40:23that they'll play on

00:40:24on New Year's Day

00:40:25but it feels like a big one

00:40:27that in terms of

00:40:28the title race

00:40:29have they seen off

00:40:30one of the main contenders

00:40:32not just yet

00:40:33but they've shown everybody

00:40:34they mean business

00:40:35and a couple of bad results

00:40:36or a couple of draws

00:40:37and one loss

00:40:38doesn't define their season

00:40:40look

00:40:40they're wonderfully

00:40:42physically

00:40:44defensively brilliant

00:40:45there's been a little bit

00:40:47of criticism recently

00:40:47on lack of creativity

00:40:49and too many goals

00:40:50offset plays

00:40:51but they've got so many

00:40:52players now

00:40:53who are fighting

00:40:53for positions

00:40:54in the forward areas

00:40:55you're going to see

00:40:56an uplift I think

00:40:57and more intensity

00:40:58from the forward players

00:40:59Jesus is coming on scoring

00:41:00we don't think

00:41:01we saw Eza today

00:41:02you know

00:41:02they've got so much talent

00:41:04I think they'll just

00:41:05spur each other on

00:41:06to do more and more

00:41:07and yeah

00:41:08it's a big day for them

00:41:10and a big statement

00:41:11I think each win like this

00:41:12each big win they have

00:41:13is a massive hurdle

00:41:15particularly at the Emirates

00:41:16where they get

00:41:17really really nervous

00:41:18they're waiting

00:41:19for that trophy

00:41:20and that feeds

00:41:21onto the team

00:41:22and that

00:41:22we saw it

00:41:23previous seasons

00:41:24we saw it last season

00:41:26in the Champions League

00:41:27they get nervous

00:41:28so big statement wins

00:41:30like this

00:41:30big moments

00:41:31you look in the next one

00:41:32possibly the League Cup

00:41:33coming up against Chelsea

00:41:34that's another big statement

00:41:36in there

00:41:36it's going to be

00:41:37each one

00:41:38brings on that

00:41:39little bit more belief

00:41:40yeah it's a huge night

00:41:41for Arsenal

00:41:41huge night

00:41:42at the top of the table

00:41:44Burnley have drawn

00:41:45their last two

00:41:46but Scott Parker's side

00:41:47were on a run of

00:41:48nine without a win

00:41:49ahead of the visit

00:41:50of Newcastle

00:41:51Guy Mowbray

00:41:52was at Turf Moor

00:41:55Burnley need a win

00:41:56but then Newcastle

00:41:57do too

00:41:57they've only won

00:41:58one of their last five

00:41:59and that was against

00:42:00Burnley three and a half

00:42:01weeks ago

00:42:02for the Clarets

00:42:03three changes

00:42:04from Saturday

00:42:04against Everton

00:42:05Maxime Estep

00:42:06returns from injury

00:42:07and Florentino

00:42:08and Loom Schauder

00:42:09also come in to start

00:42:10for Newcastle

00:42:11four changes

00:42:12Nick Pope

00:42:13plays for the first time

00:42:14since November

00:42:15Joe Linton

00:42:16Harvey Barnes

00:42:16and Johan Wisser

00:42:17also brought into

00:42:19the team

00:42:23this tradition

00:42:23is a

00:42:24very happy place

00:42:26for Newcastle

00:42:26to visit

00:42:27they have won

00:42:28their last three

00:42:28here but

00:42:29life on the road

00:42:31has not been easy

00:42:31for

00:42:33Toon fans

00:42:34this season

00:42:36there's Anthony Gordon

00:42:40and Fabian Scher

00:42:43it's a really good

00:42:44return to Gordon

00:42:45controlled it nicely

00:42:46too up against

00:42:47Kyle Walker

00:42:48and he beats him

00:42:49once

00:42:51crossing towards

00:42:51Joe Linton

00:42:52who's hooked it in

00:42:55it's taken Newcastle

00:42:56only just over a minute

00:42:59brilliantly finished

00:43:00that by the Brazilian

00:43:01his 200th appearance

00:43:02in the Premier League

00:43:04and his first goal

00:43:05in the competition

00:43:06this season

00:43:08Gordon's delivery

00:43:10maybe not what he

00:43:11was looking to do

00:43:12with it

00:43:14I think it may have

00:43:15taken a deflection

00:43:16and looped up

00:43:17to Joe Linton

00:43:17but what a connection

00:43:18that was

00:43:19it's caressed it

00:43:21into the corner

00:43:22Burnley 0

00:43:23Newcastle

00:43:24United 1

00:43:28just sets the tone

00:43:30this puts a

00:43:31downer on the

00:43:32turfmoor atmosphere

00:43:34from the very start

00:43:35apart from in the

00:43:35visiting section

00:43:36which is bouncing

00:43:38Barnes

00:43:40couldn't hold her

00:43:41Lucas Spires

00:43:42has wrestled the

00:43:42ball free of him

00:43:44Gordon came in

00:43:45though with a

00:43:45good tackle for

00:43:46Newcastle

00:43:47Bruno Gimorais

00:43:48into a crowd

00:43:48Gordon out of

00:43:49the pocket

00:43:52Gordon again

00:43:54trying to combine

00:43:55with Barnes

00:43:56here is Barnes

00:43:57saved by Dubravka

00:43:58trying to get back up

00:43:59it's an almighty

00:44:00mess for Burnley

00:44:01and Johan Wisser

00:44:03has put it in

00:44:04for number two

00:44:07his first

00:44:08Premier League

00:44:08goal in the

00:44:09black and white

00:44:10stripes

00:44:12Burnley is

00:44:12surrounding the

00:44:13referee

00:44:13Rob Jones

00:44:16they feel there

00:44:17might have been

00:44:17a foul in the

00:44:18midst of all that

00:44:18melee

00:44:19it will of course

00:44:20be looked at

00:44:22the more worrying

00:44:23concern for Burnley

00:44:25is

00:44:26the absolute

00:44:27mess that they

00:44:28got themselves

00:44:28into

00:44:30I just wonder

00:44:31there though

00:44:32if there was

00:44:32a barge

00:44:33in the back

00:44:35was Josh

00:44:36Laurent

00:44:37fouled by

00:44:38Bruno Gimorais

00:44:40I think there's

00:44:40going to be a

00:44:41secondary Newcastle

00:44:42cheer though

00:44:42the goal is going

00:44:43to be allowed

00:44:43to stand

00:44:45Burnley 0

00:44:46Newcastle 2

00:44:48let's not forget

00:44:49that very recently

00:44:50they were 2-0

00:44:51up against Chelsea

00:44:52and drew 2-2

00:44:58Luka Chukwu

00:44:59Edwards

00:45:01trying to get

00:45:01a sight of goal

00:45:02denied that by

00:45:03Wisser

00:45:04that was blocked

00:45:06by Ekdal

00:45:06put back in

00:45:08by Lucas

00:45:09Perez

00:45:09that's a goal

00:45:10brilliantly taken

00:45:11Josh Laurent

00:45:13has given

00:45:14Burnley some

00:45:15hope

00:45:15and maybe

00:45:17started

00:45:17another

00:45:18Newcastle

00:45:19wobble

00:45:21Josh Laurent's

00:45:22first Turfmoor

00:45:26of firsts

00:45:27Lucas Perez

00:45:29with the first

00:45:30shot

00:45:31might be a

00:45:32question there

00:45:32about the

00:45:33positioning of

00:45:34Breuer

00:45:35was he offside

00:45:35it was his

00:45:37help on

00:56:23it's

00:56:24Zinchenko

00:56:24it was

00:56:25on target

00:56:25I think

00:56:26on most

00:56:27occasions

00:56:27Jordan

00:56:27Pickford

00:56:28probably

00:59:04what a fabulous

00:59:06assist from the

00:59:07Everton

00:59:07midfielder

00:59:15another

00:59:15to his

00:59:16tally

00:59:19most

00:59:20Nottingham

00:59:20Forest

00:59:20fans

00:59:21are still

00:59:21in here

00:59:22but there

00:59:22are

00:59:22one or

00:59:22two

00:59:23red

00:59:23seats

00:59:23that

00:59:28oh he's

00:59:29got the

00:59:30room

00:59:30backward

00:59:30oh it's

00:59:31gone all

00:59:31the way

00:59:32across

00:59:33it's an

00:59:34Everton

00:59:34away win

00:59:35that will

00:59:36rejuvenate

00:59:37hopes of a

00:59:38European

00:59:38charge this

00:59:39season

00:59:39and they

00:59:40have done

00:59:41the double

00:59:41over Nottingham

00:59:42Forest

00:59:42in the

00:59:42space

00:59:43of a

00:59:43few

00:59:43weeks

00:59:44that

00:59:44is

00:59:45three

00:59:45straight

00:59:46defeats

00:59:46now

00:59:47for

00:59:47Sean

00:59:47Dyche's

00:59:48side

00:59:49I always

00:59:50saw

00:59:50tonight

00:59:50have been

00:59:50a really

00:59:51difficult

00:59:51game

00:59:51because

00:59:52Nottingham

00:59:52Forest

00:59:52are probably

00:59:53pushing

00:59:54really hard

00:59:54for the

00:59:54points

00:59:55I thought

00:59:55they played

00:59:56really well

00:59:56against

00:59:56Manchester

00:59:57City

00:59:57at the

00:59:57weekend

00:59:58and

00:59:58were a bit

00:59:58unlucky

00:59:59not to

00:59:59take

01:00:00something

01:00:00from the

01:00:00game

01:00:00so it was

01:00:01never going

01:00:02to be an

01:00:02easy game

01:00:02for us

01:00:03and then

01:00:03obviously

01:00:03with the

01:00:04players

01:00:04we have

01:00:04missing

01:00:05but great

01:00:06credit to

01:00:06the ones

01:00:06who come

01:00:06in

01:00:07they've

01:00:07done a

01:00:07great

01:00:07job

01:00:08really

01:00:08did

01:00:08we've

01:00:09dominated

01:00:09the game

01:00:09in many

01:00:10ways

01:00:10but not

01:00:11with that

01:00:11real edge

01:00:11and that

01:00:12cutting edge

01:00:12and certainly

01:00:13if you're

01:00:13going to

01:00:13dominate

01:00:14don't lose

01:00:14the game

01:00:14to two

01:00:15really poor

01:00:15goals

01:00:17defensively

01:00:17not enough

01:00:18edge from us

01:00:19and I think

01:00:19that's the next

01:00:20step

01:00:20when the expectation

01:00:21grows

01:00:22what about us

01:00:22growing

01:00:23I think

01:00:23that's the next

01:00:23step

01:00:24this club's

01:00:24played a

01:00:25massive

01:00:25part

01:00:26in my

01:00:26career

01:00:27so

01:00:28I was

01:00:28never

01:00:29going to

01:00:29celebrate

01:00:29if I

01:00:29scored

01:00:30I

01:00:30definitely

01:00:31enjoyed

01:00:31the second

01:00:31goal

01:00:32way more

01:00:33the work

01:00:34that I did

01:00:35and then

01:00:35the pass

01:00:36I was just

01:00:36praying that he

01:00:37put it in the

01:00:37back of the net

01:00:38and he did

01:00:39so I was

01:00:40really happy

01:00:41and that makes

01:00:42it a lot

01:00:43easier going

01:00:43into the final

01:00:44five or ten

01:00:44minutes

01:00:45two up

01:00:46rather than

01:00:46one

01:00:47well no wonder

01:00:48James Garner

01:00:49was happy

01:00:49with a goal

01:00:50and an assist

01:00:50against his

01:00:51old club

01:00:51well he goes

01:00:52under the radar

01:00:53a little bit

01:00:53I mean

01:00:54Dewsbury Hall

01:00:55Grealish

01:00:55and Jai

01:00:56tend to get

01:00:56a lot of

01:00:57the headlines

01:00:57when Everton

01:00:57have done

01:00:58well this

01:00:58season

01:00:58but he's

01:00:59been terrific

01:00:59and today

01:01:00was arguably

01:01:01his best

01:01:02performance

01:01:02of the season

01:01:03he's filled

01:01:03in in various

01:01:04positions

01:01:05he's playing

01:01:05in midfield

01:01:06at the moment

01:01:06he's enjoying

01:01:07it he's technically

01:01:08very good

01:01:08we know that

01:01:09this is a

01:01:10brilliant finish

01:01:10first chance

01:01:11Everton had

01:01:11in the game

01:01:12really really

01:01:13good finish

01:01:14that is

01:01:15I like the fact

01:01:16he can play

01:01:16quick

01:01:17he knows

01:01:17when he's got

01:01:18time on the

01:01:19ball

01:01:19he travels

01:01:19with the ball

01:01:20nicely

01:01:20he can get

01:01:22Everton up

01:01:23the pitch

01:01:23at times

01:01:24and just

01:01:25release that

01:01:25pressure

01:01:25he's a clever

01:01:26footballer

01:01:27he's not

01:01:27physically that

01:01:28big and

01:01:29doesn't rely

01:01:29so much on

01:01:30the aggressive

01:01:31side of the

01:01:32game

01:01:32but this

01:01:33this is what

01:01:34he's capable

01:01:34of

01:01:35we've seen him

01:01:35score a few

01:01:35long ranges

01:01:36that's a

01:01:36close effort

01:01:37and he does

01:01:38the hard work

01:01:39he can't play

01:01:39in the middle

01:01:40of the park

01:01:40unless you're

01:01:40prepared to do

01:01:41that

01:01:41get back into

01:01:43defensive areas

01:01:44and block

01:01:44crosses

01:01:44and stick with

01:01:45your runners

01:01:45and this is the

01:01:46highlight for me

01:01:47I mean

01:01:48as a midfielder

01:01:49this type of

01:01:50assist is the

01:01:50most pleasing

01:01:51lovely bit of skill

01:01:52and then can you

01:01:53find the weight

01:01:54of the pass

01:01:54beautiful

01:01:55into Barry

01:01:56who gets his

01:01:57second goal

01:01:58and pleases

01:02:00those Evertonians

01:02:01who go

01:02:01but this is

01:02:02top midfield

01:02:04play

01:02:04and it

01:02:06deserved a

01:02:06goal

01:02:07for the brilliance

01:02:08of the pass

01:02:09yeah it's his

01:02:09fifth game

01:02:10it's central

01:02:10midfielder

01:02:11in a row

01:02:11now

01:02:12and you're

01:02:12looking at

01:02:13you touch on

01:02:13it there

01:02:13Keeson

01:02:14King and

01:02:14Drewsby Hall

01:02:15stepping out

01:02:15through injury

01:02:16and there's

01:02:17been a depleted

01:02:17side

01:02:17who's going to

01:02:18step up

01:02:19he's stepped

01:02:20up now

01:02:20and Everton

01:02:21fans are looking

01:02:22at him

01:02:22over the course

01:02:23of this season

01:02:23how good are

01:02:25you

01:02:25what are you

01:02:26I think we're

01:02:26starting to see

01:02:27the picture

01:02:27and he's got to

01:02:28get his contract

01:02:29so he's out of

01:02:29contract

01:02:30but apparently

01:02:30for the end

01:02:31of the season

01:02:31which is

01:02:32unbelievable

01:02:32really

01:02:33talking about

01:02:34a plan

01:02:35for the game

01:02:36it was very

01:02:36clear what

01:02:37Nottingham Forest

01:02:37and Sean Dyche

01:02:38intended

01:02:3946 crosses

01:02:40from Nottingham Forest

01:02:42in this game

01:02:42but it says here

01:02:44only 8 successful

01:02:45but you would

01:02:46read it slightly

01:02:47differently Danny

01:02:48obviously watching

01:02:49the game

01:02:50you see the

01:02:51quality of the

01:02:52crosses

01:02:52and the only

01:02:53reason the

01:02:53successful number

01:02:54there is low

01:02:55is because of

01:02:55the performance

01:02:56of O'Brien

01:02:56and Tarkovsky

01:02:57who were

01:02:58absolutely outstanding

01:02:59there was a

01:02:59couple of poor

01:03:00headers from Forest

01:03:00when they did

01:03:01get the first

01:03:01contacts

01:03:02but a lot of

01:03:03quality from

01:03:04Forest in wide

01:03:04areas

01:03:05and something

01:03:05I think

01:03:06is a positive

01:03:06for them

01:03:07moving forward

01:03:08I wouldn't

01:03:08see that

01:03:09stat as a

01:03:09negative

01:03:09just keep

01:03:10getting it

01:03:10in there

01:03:11and of course

01:03:11they'll be

01:03:11having Chris

01:03:12Wood back

01:03:13sooner rather

01:03:13than later

01:03:15Now Manchester

01:03:16United beat

01:03:17Newcastle in

01:03:18the only game

01:03:19on Boxing Day

01:03:20they were back

01:03:20at Old Trafford

01:03:21for the visit

01:03:21of Wolves

01:03:22who are still

01:03:23yet to win

01:03:24and on a run

01:03:24of 11 straight

01:03:26defeats

01:03:26your commentator

01:03:27Steve Bauer

01:03:30Manchester United

01:03:31have lost

01:03:32just twice

01:03:32in the last

01:03:3312 games

01:03:34they're there

01:03:34without Mason

01:03:35Mount due

01:03:36to a muscle

01:03:36problem

01:03:37it takes

01:03:37the unavoidable

01:03:38list of

01:03:38Ruben Amorim

01:03:39to eight

01:03:40players

01:03:40so Joshua

01:03:41Zertzky

01:03:42starts

01:03:42for only the

01:03:43fourth time

01:03:44in the Premier

01:03:44League this

01:03:45season

01:03:45Wolves who

01:03:46are on the

01:03:47third longest run

01:03:48without a victory

01:03:49in Premier League

01:03:50history

01:03:50are missing

01:03:51the suspended

01:03:52Andre and the

01:03:53injured Santiago

01:03:54Bueno

01:03:54so Tachua

01:03:56and Arias

01:03:57both come in

01:03:58it has been

01:04:02pointed out

01:04:02quite correctly

01:04:03that Wolves

01:04:03have pushed

01:04:04Arsenal

01:04:04and Liverpool

01:04:06away from home

01:04:07very closely

01:04:07indeed

01:04:08recently

01:04:09and their last

01:04:10away

01:04:11Premier League

01:04:11win

01:04:12was here

01:04:13in April

01:04:17Dorkin

01:04:17over

01:04:18Shesko

01:04:22finds

01:04:22Hwang

01:04:24brilliant from

01:04:25Harry

01:04:26now can he

01:04:27set something

01:04:27moving

01:04:31Zertzky

01:04:31and they go

01:04:32again

01:04:33Joshua

01:04:33Zertzky

01:04:34deflected

01:04:36and Manchester

01:04:37United get

01:04:38the break

01:04:38and they get

01:04:39the lead

01:04:40and that's a

01:04:41tough one

01:04:42on Wolves

01:04:42the way

01:04:43they've started

01:04:43this game

01:04:45it was congested

01:04:46in those central

01:04:47areas

01:10:13short

01:10:15and the

01:10:16Boxing Day

01:10:17hero

01:10:17who was

01:10:18hoping to

01:10:18write another

01:10:19script

01:10:20looks like

01:10:21he's going

01:10:21to be

01:10:21denied

01:10:22yes he's

01:10:23off

01:10:24no goal

01:10:25still

01:10:261-1

01:10:28another night

01:10:29of frustration

01:10:30for him

01:10:32more drop

01:10:33points

01:10:34when they

01:10:34were least

01:10:35expected

01:10:37Rob well

01:10:38done your

01:10:38first point

01:10:39I mean

01:10:39if you're

01:10:40getting greedy

01:10:40could it

01:10:41have been

01:10:41more

01:10:41potentially

01:10:42I think

01:10:42it's the

01:10:42least we

01:10:43deserved

01:10:43you know

01:10:44it's another

01:10:45good performance

01:10:45it's progress

01:10:46and I know

01:10:47that's been

01:10:48slow in terms

01:10:49of results

01:10:49but our

01:10:50performances

01:10:51especially

01:10:51away from

01:10:52home

01:10:52have warranted

01:10:53I think

01:10:53more than

01:10:53the points

01:10:54and what

01:10:55we've got

01:10:56so it's nice

01:10:56to take

01:10:57something away

01:10:57from the

01:10:57game

01:10:57I feel

01:10:58we deserve

01:10:58that

01:10:58Ruben

01:10:59just a

01:10:59point

01:10:59in the

01:10:59end

01:11:00how did

01:11:00you see

01:11:00that

01:11:01I think

01:11:01it was

01:11:02a

01:11:02strange

01:11:03game

01:11:04we already

01:11:04knew

01:11:05it

01:11:06that

01:11:07would be

01:11:07a different

01:11:08game

01:11:08if you

01:11:09compare

01:11:09to

01:11:09Newcastle

01:11:11we

01:11:11needed

01:11:11more

01:11:12imagination

01:11:12today

01:11:13but we

01:11:14tried

01:11:14but the

01:11:15quality

01:11:16was not

01:11:16there

01:11:16also

01:11:17because the

01:11:17characteristics

01:11:18is not

01:11:18the right

01:11:19characteristics

01:11:19in this

01:11:20moment

01:11:21but we

01:11:22tried

01:11:23we need

01:11:23to recover

01:11:24to the

01:11:24next one

01:11:25if Manchester

01:11:26United

01:11:26had one

01:11:27they were

01:11:27moved up

01:11:28to fourth

01:11:28in the

01:11:29table

01:11:29but Wolves

01:11:30losing run

01:11:31comes to

01:11:31an end

01:11:32at Old

01:11:32Trafford

01:11:32just their

01:11:33third point

01:11:34of the

01:11:35season

01:11:35and Amorim

01:11:36looks as

01:11:37though he

01:11:38was reverting

01:11:39to type

01:11:39going back

01:11:40to that

01:11:403-4-3

01:11:41rather than

01:11:41the back

01:11:41four he

01:11:42tried against

01:11:42Newcastle

01:11:43yeah

01:11:43you can

01:11:44put the

01:11:44formations

01:11:45up

01:11:45you can

01:11:45put the

01:11:45personnel

01:11:46up

01:11:46for me

01:11:46Lamond's

01:11:47played

01:11:47well

01:11:47you're

01:11:48looking at

01:11:49a continuation

01:11:50of a

01:11:50problem

01:11:50in consistency

01:11:51in terms of

01:11:53just an

01:11:53overall performance

01:11:54of intensity

01:11:55that's there

01:11:56and there's two

01:11:57managers from

01:11:58tonight for me

01:11:59and one that's

01:12:00worked with the

01:12:00team for a

01:12:01short period of

01:12:02time and you

01:12:02can see small

01:12:03grains of

01:12:04improvement for

01:12:05Wolves and

01:12:05small crumbs

01:12:06of comfort and

01:12:08energy to come

01:12:09from the results

01:12:10and then you're

01:12:10looking at

01:12:10Manchester United

01:12:11and Amorin

01:12:12has spoken at

01:12:13length over a

01:12:14period of time

01:12:15saying last

01:12:15season there

01:12:16were too many

01:12:16games for us

01:12:17to work on

01:12:18the manager

01:12:18on the training

01:12:19pitch for the

01:12:20manager

01:12:20now he's had

01:12:21half a season

01:12:23on this and

01:12:23he's gone back

01:12:24from one formation

01:12:25to another and

01:12:25back again

01:12:26I'm just not

01:12:27seeing the

01:12:28positional the

01:12:29formational

01:12:30improvement or

01:12:31the performance

01:12:32improvement

01:12:32and they didn't

01:12:34get the result

01:12:35Xerxes did get

01:12:36the goal but

01:12:37came off at

01:12:39half time

01:12:40tactical

01:12:41substitution

01:12:42is he just

01:12:43someone who's

01:12:44waiting to be

01:12:45sold?

01:12:45I think so

01:12:46yeah he's had

01:12:48enough chances

01:12:48the fans haven't

01:12:49really tamed

01:12:50through him

01:12:50he'll probably

01:12:51say he's not

01:12:51been given as

01:12:52many opportunities

01:12:53as he thinks

01:12:53he deserves

01:12:54but for the

01:12:55quality United

01:12:55need he's

01:12:56probably not up

01:12:57to and I

01:12:57think we'll

01:12:57see him go

01:12:58in this window

01:12:59probably
