  1. Whisper it quietly, but we think Burnley might have done enough now...

  2. FULL-TIME

  3. GREAT SAVE!

    Andy Carroll! That's what he can do! Brilliant header, flying header, but Brad Guzan paws it away. Almost an instant hero on his return.

    "Palace have a lot of energy and cover each other by working really hard, but really all they've done is provide a defensive barrier in front of Speroni. The goal, when it came, was a long shot. Contrast that with the chances Palace have had, which have been very limited.

    "The fans are making their way to the exit, which sums up the United performance. Not very convincing."

  5. INJURY TIME

    We're into injury time now, folks. One last goal?

  6. SUBSTITUTION

    Andy Carroll is back! He's on! Got to go big...

  7. SUBSTITUTION

    Paddy McNair - the only recognised centre-half fit for Manchester United - is injured! Darren Fletcher is on...

  8. Text us on 81111

    Charles, Cranbrook: Saints have real strength in depth. Jay Rodriguez (remember him?) has a fight on his hands when he returns.

  9. Leicester with a chance to pull one back but Chris Wood, who breaks through on goal, chips his effort over the goalkeeper and wide. Might as well pack up and go home now, lads.

  11. CLOSE!

    What a chance! West Ham nearly steal it as the cross finds its way right through a crowded box to Carl Jenkinson. The on-loan Arsenal full-back gets his neck into the ball, powerful header, but straight at Brad Guzan. That was a golden chance!

    "Defensively, Palace have been pretty good. But once United got the goal I've wondered whether Palace have the wherewithal to create their own opportunities. Ever since falling behind they have been on the back foot, really."

  13. Aston Villa defender Nathan Baker has a serious-looking injury as he challenges Carlton Cole and does something to his ankle. Or possibly knee. I'm not a doctor.

    He needs a stretcher anyway and Philippe Senderos is on. Senderos for the final five - panic stations?

  14. Championship latest

    Brentford have battled back against Millwall to re-take the lead at the Den. Andre Gray has turned provider this time - his cross diverted into the net by Millwall's Danny Shittu for an own goal. 3-2 to the Bees.

    Huddersfield equalised through Joel Lynch at Craven Cottage but their joy was short-lived. Fulham go straight up the other end and score through Lasse Vigen Christensen.

    It is still 0-0 in the game at the top of the table between Middlesbrough and Bournemouth. The Cherries were the league's top scorers going into this one, but they have come up against the league's sternest defence at the Riverside. Derby will stay top of the league if it finishes this way.

  15. Hull are starting to turn the screw now and a cross is stood up to the back post where Burnley defender Michael Duff gets his go-go-gadget neck out to head clear.

  16. United have had 71% of possession so far actually Jimmy. Still not been a good showing though, as James Wilson shows what he's got in his game, namely fierce pace. Strong run down the middle before he eventually loses out.

  17. Former Wales international John Hartson
    Final Score

    "Shane Long hasn't come straight into this Southampton side since joining from Hull because of the form of Graziano Pelle and Dusan Tadic, but he has been patient and that is what you get for £12m. Two chances and two goals."

  18. "And now you're going to believe us... we're going to win the league," sing the Southampton supporters. Imagine that.

  19. Jimmy Armfield
    at Old Trafford for 5 live Sport

    "Manchester United have given their fans plenty of frustration today. Old Trafford has been quiet, edgy, sensing that at any one time Crystal Palace could fashion something. Think about it - United must have had something like 75% of the possession but no real end product."

  20. HITS THE WOODWORK

    He's the only man who has brought his shooting boots today! Juan Mata skims a shot against the post, lovely strike, takes a slight nick off a yellow shirt on its way through the air but Julian Speroni had no chance. Very unlucky, the Spanish number eight.
