At the halfway stage, exactly half of the game has been played in the middle third.

Jesse Lingard deserves credit for the equaliser because he was on the front foot. He was expecting Alisson to spill it, he was the one moving forward, and he stuck it in.

Khan: Liverpool need to do better with corners. Very poor deliveries. Robertson should not be taking them.

Edward: Lukaku needs to be far stronger. Van Dijk is bullying him as if he was playing against a smaller striker. The ball is just coming straight back at United.

Southampton

Southampton manager Ralph Hasenhuttl speaking to Match of the Day: "It's amazing what the team can do in a week. It was very intensive, we had time to work on the basics and built the fundamentals for our game.

"I'm very proud of how focused and uncompromising they were, and when they had the chances, how merciless they were.

"It was a fantastic atmosphere and a special feeling here to win the match."

Arsenal

Arsenal manager Unai Emery speaking to Match of the Day: "We could have lost at any time and it was today.

"Southampton deserved the result because they pushed and played with big ambition. This is football. Sometimes we could win that game but today we lost it.

"We need to do some analysis on how we can improve and do better. But our way is a good way and we need to continue.

"We haven't conceded a lot of chances but today they scored three goals. That is a lot so we need to improve with this. We need to continue our way with confidence and taking responsibility for the 90 minutes.

"There were good things on the pitch and we're now thinking about Wednesday's match with Tottenham. We need to recover quickly and prepare for this match."

Chelsea

Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri: "I think that we played a good match. We could have won by more goals. We conceded a goal in a moment when we were in full control. The last five minutes against a very physical team was difficult to manage."

Worried by Brighton's goal? "I wasn't worried because there were no problems on the pitch. I was a little bit worried about the last five minutes."

On Hazard's display: "I think that Hazard could play better because his level is a very high level. He can do more him and for us. But I think after the two injuries, he lost the physical condition. Now he's improving. In one or two matches he'll be back at the top."

Pressure on Hazard playing without a striker? "No, he has to improve in that position. He is very good in coming to play with the team. He has to improve in attacking after passing with team-mates."

On if Hazard has a serious injury: "No. I spoke with the doctor who said it wasn't a serious problem. One day's rest but no more."

On the Loftus-Cheek delayed substitution: "I asked for the substitution one minute before but it was impossible, so we conceded a goal in that minute. I wanted to change because Pedro had a stomach-ache before the match."

On Alonso's tackle on March: "I don't know. the action was 60m from the bench. Maybe I would have put Giroud as a centre-back!"

Some reaction from the day's two early games?

One half down, one to go.

You can rate the players out 10 here.

Liverpool all over United for half an hour. Alisson error handed United a way back into the game, bit flat since.

Akshay Chalke: I have a feeling Mourinho's men are going to nick this.

London Mooney: If Mourinho perseveres with this formation I reckon Lukaku could be turned in to a decent centre-back.

How many times have Liverpool got in that area, 30 yards out, to get a shot off with no pressure from United because they've retreated to the 18-yard box?

Good play from Liverpool again, again it's Fabinho who is the free man and his long-range shot deflects wide for a corner. Cleared.

Manchester United's leveller came following a cross in from the left - the flank where the majority of their attacks have come from.

Jose Mourinho is out talking to the fourth official, asking why Roberto Firmino is not shown a yellow card for taking out Marcus Rashford on the halfway line. He's got a very fair point.

United seeing much more of the ball now. Will Liverpool be made to pay for not taking advantage when they were well on top?

Alisson has made as many errors leading to goals in the Premier League this season as Mignolet last season (2).

It's been an entertaining game. Liverpool have had all the attacking threat but, since the goal, United have grown in confidence.

They're keeping the ball a bit better, they're enjoying having the ball. Before the goal they couldn't wait to get rid of it!

The mood inside Anfield has changed totally after that awful error from Alisson. Manchester United looked devoid of ideas and almost fearful - now they been handed a gift from the most unlikely source.

Adam Byrne: Lukaku never would have got the cross in had he been running at Joe Gomez. The hopeless Lovren should have cut it out.

Heavy touch from Romelu Lukaku, the ball gets away from him and he slides right through Naby Keita. Both men are down hurt and Lukaku is booked. Correct call.

Finally, something for the Manchester United fans to sing about. To be fair to those in the Anfield Road end, they have tried to raise their team from the early, jittery, exchanges, but that goal came out of the blue.
