    There has been a lot of talk about racism and Manchester United this week after the reaction to Paul Pogba's penalty miss at Wolves on Monday.

    United will meet social media executives to try and find out what improvements can be made.

    It is not going to be easy. For now, this flag sums up United's sentiments.

    A man with good air miles.

    FT: Norwich 2-3 Chelsea

    Norwich City

    Norwich manager Daniel Farke for Match of the Day: "I am not interested in golden boots, I am interested in points. Teemu Pukki is of course having a fantastic game at the minute but I want to win. We will stick to our principles, we will stick to our style, we want to be offensive, we want to win games and that is how we are going to continue."

    Chelsea

    Tammy Abraham speaking to MOTD: "It's a great afternoon for myself and the boys.We came into the dressing room at half-time and said we need to win this game."

    On Frank Lampard: "I didn't even know how to celebrate so I just ran over to the management and the staff. It always gives confidence to me and the young boys when the coach believes in you."

  5. 'Small details made the difference'published at 14:54 British Summer Time 24 August 2019

    FT: Norwich 2-3 Chelsea

    Norwich City

    Norwich manager Daniel Farke on BT Sport: "It was a pretty close game. Small details made the difference today. I think 2-2 at half time was the right result. Then Chelsea were dominating in the first 15 mins of the second half and that gave them the edge. Sometimes when you play against a team like Chelsea, you have to ride that pressure out. I am pretty happy with the performance, we had a number of chances, unfortunately we could not find the equaliser.

    On the number of added minutes: My feeling was 5 minutes after such a game was not enough. Chelsea are so experienced. It took three minutes to figure out with VAR that it was a pretty obvious foul on my goalkeeper, there were injuries and substitutions. It was pretty obvious that there should have been more than 5 minutes for the extra time.

    Brighton v Southampton (15:00 BST)

    Alex Scott
    Ex-England international on BBC Football Focus

    There were criticisms that Brighton weren't finding the back of the net but they have fixed that now. He has come in, studied the players and got them playing. I expect them to do really well this season.

  8. 'I'm particularly pleased for Tammy'published at 14:50 British Summer Time 24 August 2019

    FT: Norwich 2-3 Chelsea

    Chelsea

    Chelsea manager Frank Lampard: "It was a tough test and Norwich will get a lot of points here because they are a good side.The two goals we gave away I didn't like but there were lots of good elements to our play and i'm really pleased."

    On Tammy Abraham: "I'm particularly pleased for Tammy and he scored two good goals and the winning goal, but I want to talk about all the players today as we controlled the game on a hot day. Our performances haven't given us what we deserved so far - but today it did."

    On Injuries: "Pedro felt his hamstring in the warm-up but Mason was just a kick to his calf so hopefully he can quickly recover."

  9. 'We have an identity'published at 14:49 British Summer Time 24 August 2019

    FT: Norwich 2-3 Chelsea

    Norwich City

    Norwich goalscorer: Todd Cantwell: "It was amazing to get that goal .Going 1-0 down so early it was nice to get it and get the squad back into the game but it is disappointing not getting any points from that game.

    On Norwich's style: "There are lessons we are learning, but we have a way to go yet. We have an identity and we want to stand by that."

    We’re told Ryan Bertrand isn’t in the Southampton squad today because of an ankle injury. There’s a suggestion that Ralph Hasenhuttl may start with his quirky but preferred 4-2-2-2 formation.

    Graham Potter’s new-look frontline consists of the only three players that have scored for Brighton so far this season.

    Sho: I seriously don't understand how Lingard is starting again, such a joke. And Angel Gomes again doesn't make the squad! Are you kidding me?

    Dave Dixon: If we aren't going to even put Angel Gomes in the squad but have dinosaurs Mata and Matic in there and aren't even having him play for the 23s then loan him out. One of our best preseason players and such a prodigious talent deserves better.

    Mark Taylor: Think Cahill is in for a torrid afternoon, not the quickest centre back around and with United's Road runners. Lets hope he's had his Weetabix today.

    Henry Anamelechi: Lampard needs to find the balance between attacking and defending. This team doesn't look like it can keep clean sheets.

    Giles Brooks: Where are people getting this "Chelsea are a top six team"? Their top player by country mile has left, they've got a transfer ban and an inexperienced manager!
