    Man Utd 0-0 Swansea

    Mark Lawrenson
    Ex-Liverpool defender at Old Trafford for Radio 5 live

    "It's Man Utd reverting to type. Swansea have come here to do a job. Rooney's had two headers from Young crosses, but that's been about the sum of it. De Gea has made one save at the other end. You could sum this first half up in three words: Dull, dull and dull."

  8. 'I'm angry' - Klopppublished at 15:50 Greenwich Mean Time 2 January 2016

    West Ham 2-0 Liverpool

    Liverpool

    Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp: "It was not enough from my team today because in the decisive moments we were there but we were not there. All the TV stations now tell me that the situation with Alberto Moreno was a foul, but we didn't react right in this situation. There was no whistle. We have to avoid the cross. 

    "What makes me angry is that we had an opportunity to play fighting football but we scored no goal today. 

    "It's our responsibility. I told the players immediately after the game: summary - not enough. If you know in the other team there's Andy Carroll, how can you allow crosses?"

    Rotherham are leading Preston 1-0, while MK Dons are 1-0 up against Leeds, and that's it in terms of Championship goals...
