Chris Basham arrives inside the area on the underlap but his ball across is bravely cut out. Corner Blades...

It was about losing the first ball, Dan Burn won it, there were six Arsenal players in and around the area, Sokratis got a touch, it fell to Webster and he just hammers it and it's in. Just static, poor defending.

Twenty-five minutes left for Newcastle to hang on to the smashiest and grabbiest of smash and grabs.

There's a lot of work to do for Arsenal. The hard thing Freddie is trying to do is adapt what he has been doing.

He was part of the previous process, part of the failing project so it's always difficult to come from the inside and change things.

It needs a complete change, not just a bit of tinkering. It needs the engine changed.

Allan Saint-Maximin's goal remains Newcastle's only shot on target of the match - they haven't had a single shot, on or off target, since.

And that's the end of Billy Sharp for the night - Lys Mousset is on.

The Blades have had 73% of the ball and 10 efforts on goal. Newcastle ragged!

It's a brilliant cross from Baldock, right across the box, allowing the Sheffield United forwards to attack it but they just seemed to collide into each other.

The Sheffield United fans are in full froth mode now. Steaming at every perceived injustice as two men in red and white go down while attacking a cross. Referee Stuart Attwell runs away.

Martin Dubraka then makes another amazing save but Billy Sharp was offside.

Decent save, anyway. Brighton on top you'd have to say as Neal Maupay is able to run through the heart of the pitch and get a low shot in from 22 yards which Bernd Leno has to be sharp to save.

Sam Kinnaird: So Silva has been sacked as Everton manager and the same names are bounded about. Moyes, Hughes, Pardew etc etc. Now it would be funny if any of them get it but when will clubs learn that they are not good managers.

DB: So Marco Silva has finally been sacked you can’t say Everton board didn’t back him with money and time his results haven’t been good enough!

Plenty of noise. most of it booing, from the stands. The home fans aren't happy with something as Wilder and Knill discuss a change or two. Lys Mousset time?

Martin Dubravka has been the game's outstanding performer so far. If I was Sheffield United now, I'd be thinking about wanting to test him in case he's not at 100%.

Eddie: Blimey, are Brighton really being allowed to dominate possession at the Emirates? Matter of time before the #Gooner, external faithful start getting restless.

This_guy_Njage: The Arsenal backline is much better today, the link-up play is a bit sketchy. Something is not clicking from midfield to the forwards.

Sheffield United 0-1 Newcastle

Martin Dubravka needs treatment, he took a whack in the thigh when he made that punch earlier on. Dead leg time.

The Newcastle keeper has been outstanding this evening, with six saves. Dean Henderson in the Blades goal hasn't made one.

Sheffield United are putting Newcastle under severe pressure at the moment. They are getting so many bodies forward.

Better from Arsenal as they sweep a move together, it ends with captain Aubameyang miskicking a cross/shot right across the face of goal and wide.

It was definitely a shot from Maupay. He just put a bit much pace on it and it was difficult for Connolly to get a touch at the back post.

The natives are restless as Brighton continue to do all of the pressing - Neal Maupay lines up a shot from a narrow angle and fizzes it across goal, Aaron Connolly is close to sweeping it in...

The Seagulls have had 59% of the game so far.

Good ball in hunting for Billy Sharp, Martin Dubravka comes and punches it away before Ollie McBurnie loops in a header from a good 16 yards and the Newcastle keeper makes yet another good save!

Taking the points back up to the north east single-handed so far.
