Martin Fisher
Match of the Day commentator at St James' Park

"No lift-off yet for Newcastle United despite their huge outlay in the January transfer window.

"In what is their only home game in a 49-day period, Steve McClaren needs his new faces to light up St James' Park with a victory as they try to stay in touch with those clubs just above them in the relegation zone.

"Albion sit eight points above their hosts but aren't out of the woods just yet.

"Unconvincing home draws against fellow strugglers Swansea and Aston Villahave renewed familiar fears, although a draw in this one will be received more favourably."

Steve Wilson
BBC Match of the Day commentator at Villa Park

"Villa appointed Mervyn King, former Governor of the Bank of England, to their board of directors this week.

"Perhaps the appointment comes at an appropriate time, with interest rates at Villa Park apparently dropping fast. There were almost 20,000 empty seats for last weekend's FA Cup capitulation against Manchester City - and the City end was sold out.

"It took some doing to make Villa's week even worse, but Jordan Ayew managed it with his crazy elbow, external on Aaron Cresswell at West Ham.

"Since Norwich beat Villa and Southampton over Christmas and New Year they have lost five out of five in league and cup. Alex Neil will have identified Villa as the place to end the slump."

"This is unbelievable! Who doubted them, who doubted Leicester City? Well, the doubters can now disappear!

"Who predicted this scoreline? Hands up, anyone? This is quite a day..."

Stoke hand a debut to record signing Giannelli Imbula against Everton.

Former Manchester United manager David Moyes says he has had a job offer in China but that his "heart has always been in the Premier League".

The 52-year-old was a guest on Saturday morning's Danny Baker show on BBC 5 live and was also asked about reports that former Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho's representatives are in talks about the managerial position at Manchester United.

Moyes said: "Jose would arguably be up there with the best managers in the world,

"Manchester United is a great football club and I don't think there's any manager in the world who would not want to work for them.

"The big thing is that there is a manager in place. I think it is wrong that we talk about somebody's job. I think we talk too easily in football about men losing their job."

"This is a fabulous goal. Mahrez is a top talent. 

"Again, the Foxes hit Man City on the break, who are so sluggish trying to get back. But Mahrez, when he picked it up, had a great stepover and then a wonderful finish. No chance Joe Hart - a great goal, absolutely fantastic."
