    Leicester v Man Utd (14:05 GMT)

    Manchester United (how long until we can drop the word caretaker?) manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer says he cannot take all the credit for their turnaround.

    The Red Devils have won eight and drawn one of his nine games in charge since replacing Jose Mourinho.

    “It's about how you work with the players, how you work for the club, so you've got to manage for the club. It's not about me at all.

    “It's the staff, us together with the players and with the crowd.

    "So, in the last 10 minutes against Burnley, that was the crowd lifting the players. That was the players then responding to that. It's not about me as a manager, if I put in this system or that system."

    Tom: If Ole carries on the way he's going, Man U could have the two most contrasting halves of a season ever!

    Dan: I would love to see Chelsea go on a winning run and clinch the title by 1 one point. That would be hilarious!

    Todd, London: It was clear that even when he took Burnley down, Solskjaer was a top manager. Just didn't have the players!

    Either Todd means Cardiff or else I must have blacked out for an entire season

    In case that horticulture question was meant for us, I'm sorry but I can't help.

    My parents have a successful open garden in Limerick (which I'd probably be sacked for promoting here) but the gardening interest did not drop down to this generation.

    I have a jasminoides trachelospermum planted 6 years ago on a south facing wall. It is extremely healthy with lush green leaves but very little in the way of flowers. Can you suggest how I can encourage flowering please?

    Puel has reported no new fitness concerns.

    The fit-again Chris Smalling could make his first appearance for two months, but Marcos Rojo remains sidelined.

    I’m not 100% sure I know what Everton are any more. Goodison Park used to be a tough place to go.

    When you’re spending a lot of money that transition period does get cut away.

    One win from the last six at home is why the fans are starting to voice their opinions and Marco Silva is definitely under a lot of pressure.

    In Europe some football legends managed two goals on Saturday's games.

    Lionel Messi bagged twice for Barcelona in their 2-2 draw against Valencia, while Parma drew 3-3 with Juventus with doubles from Cristiano Ronaldo... and Gervinho.

    Cesc Fabregas scored as Monaco won for the first time since binning Thierry Henry.

  15. Norwich knock Leeds off top spotpublished at 12:36 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2019

    Leeds 1-3 Norwich

    Leeds boss Marcelo Bielsa says "I feel deeply responsible" after they lost to Norwich in their top-of-the-table encounter.

    The Canaries went top on goal difference after a 3-1 win at the previous Championship leaders.

    "We have now lost the previous defensive solidity and that is down to me, not the players," said Bielsa.

    Canaries manager Daniel Farke told BBC Radio Norfolk: "The lads delivered in a difficult and complicated game, so I'm really thrilled.

    "Such an away win as this is outstanding and the consistency the lads are delivering is also great. It's important we enjoy these kind of results and enjoy it."

    Rangers scored three penalties - and missed another - as Rangers beat St Mirren 4-0.

    James Tavernier scored his first, hit the post with his second, netted the third and Jermain Defoe netted their fourth.

    "There could've been five penalties," said boss Steven Gerrard afterwards.

  17. 'Could still be playing now without scoring'published at 12:32 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2019

    Crystal Palace 2-0 Fulham

    Alan Shearer
    Former England captain on MOTD

    I expected a lot more from Fulham after what they did in midweek. Apart from one chance for Aleksandar Mitrovic they never had a shot on target.

    They are so reliant on him. He has got 40% of their goals. Ryan Babel and Tom Cairney have got to do more and cause more problems.

    On every occasion it was a ball into the box and Mitrovic was the only one there. They could still be playing now and Fulham would not have scored.

    That was Shearer speaking last night but probably still stands true now...

  18. Elsewhere...published at 12:31 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2019

    Saturday's other games saw Crystal Palace beat Fulham 2-0 and draws between Burnley and Southampton (1-1) and Brighton and Watford (0-0).

  19. 'Penalty had to go in with the emotion'published at 12:29 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2019

    Cardiff 2-0 Bournemouth

    Jermaine Jenas
    Former England and Tottenham midfielder on MOTD

    I thought Cardiff dealt with Bournemouth very well.

    With the emotion in the stadium the penalty had to hit the back of the net. Bobby Reid was working deep but he was also willing to set his team on the attack with very good passes.

    Whenever Cardiff had a counter attack, he was always at the heart of it, driving at the opposition. He took the second goal very well and it was a very good afternoon’s work for the birthday boy.

  20. 'Warnock should be very proud'published at 12:27 Greenwich Mean Time 3 February 2019

    Neil Warnock should be very proud of himself, and the football club, for the way they performed. It must have been very tough.

    Dominic Solanke has hardly played any football. It’s a big ask to put him in the Bournemouth team and tell him to make a big contribution. It’s going to take time for him to understand his team-mates and vice versa. It was a tough afternoon for him but he will get better.
