    Like the sacking of Paul Clement at Swansea is old news, this text moves the agenda on nicely...

    TP to Swansea. Pards, Allardyce, Moyes and Roy - all the boyz back in the hood. Who on earth can Stoke turn to? Big Ron? Joe Kinnear?

    A goal, or a penalty.

    What a magnificent tackle from Daley Blind. Everyone was expecting a goal there.

    What a tackle! That is brilliant from Daley Blind!

    But City should be ahead. They work the ball beautifully into the area, a backheel plays in Korey Smith, he hesitates pulling the trigger for a second and Blind somehow slides in and wins the ball cleanly.

    BIG CHANCE.

    Zlatan Ibrahimovic looks understandably rusty as we tick towards half time. The home crowd are giving him plenty of stick too. He's just won a corner which Daley Blind will take.

    It comes through to Zlatan at the back post - sliced wide!

    Ashton Gate still full of life and bounce, a very decent, open game.

    But who is headlining next year? Oh, hold on.

    Swansea have gone from a family club who promoted from within, keeping the ethos of the club and style of play, to a laughing stock. They promoted Garry Monk, which was the absolute right thing to do. Sacked him because the lost a couple of games, then they start hiring any bloke that had managed anywhere that was unheard of and could “maybe do a good job." The board have panicked every time and come across as a small time bunch of amateurs. They will now get Tony Pulis and completely throw away their identity and ultimately get relegated. That’s how not to do it!

    Chelsea will be reasonably satisfied but there are some concerns that Bournemouth can seize an opportunity if Chelsea get complacent.

    They have been the dominant side. Bournemouth have shown glimpses of intent but it’s been pretty much all Chelsea, it’s just the final pass hasn’t been there at times.

    Chelsea just have to keep grinding away. If the score stays at 1-0, Antonio Conte will bring on players like Eden Hazard or Alvaro Morata.

    Bristol City have obviously made a point of targeting Sergio Romero in the United goal as Bobby Reid this time strips the ball from him. He's whistled again by Mike Dean and told in no uncertain terms where to go.

    The funny thing is you look at the technical area after that disallowed goal and the United bench are berating the fourth official. He had nothing to do with it!

  14. DISALLOWED GOALpublished at 20:30 Greenwich Mean Time 20 December 2017

    Bristol City 0-0 Manchester United

    Aden Flint scores loads of goals from centre-back, and he's got the ball in the net again!

    Sergio Romero tries to bowl the ball out and ends up dropping the ball under the considerable challenge from Flint. Flint's finish was great, flicked in from 20 yards with the outside of his foot.

    But it won't count.

    Oh my word that's rash!

    Paul Pogba miscontrols a bouncing ball and as he lunges in to win it back he catches Nathan Baker so, so high.

    That was over knee high! Pogba could have been in big trouble there. Moments later a cross hits the arms of Anthony Martial - no penalty given.

    United have been very unlucky not to score. Rashford, Martial and Pogba are all finding a bit too much space.

    United are countering really well now. A City attack breaks down and in two passes the visitors slice through. Scott McTominay finds Paul Pogba, he runs on and then curls wide from the edge of the area.
