    Sheff Utd 0-1 Liverpool

    That goal has lifted the visitors.

    Another chance for Curtis Jones. Another save by Aaron Ramsdale.

    Liverpool are looking to put this game out of sight.

    Trent Alexander Arnold gets to the by line and crosses it - it's a great finish by Curtis Jones to the keeper's right hand side. When I first saw that I thought it was out but slowed down it's still in.

    The way the players reacted I thought it wasn't being given. From Sheffield United's point of view it's really disappointing, Phil Jagielka back heels it so he'll be disappointed he didn't get a better clearance of it.

    That should settle the nerves!

    Outstanding by Trent Alexander-Arnold to keep the ball alive before crossing, the ball falling into the path of Curtis Jones to hammer home.

    VAR had a look to see if had gone out of play before Alexander-Arnold's cross. No check needed for the finish. It was clinical by Jones.

    The Blades have come out firing. Corner conceded by Andy Robertson and the ball is swung into the danger area...free-kick awarded for a push.

    Riz: Alas, same story unfolding... looks like lots of huff and puff before a set piece goal for SHU to settle it. Or brain freeze moment for Adrian or defence. C'mon you Reds, wake up from this slumber!!!

    The Blades need wins. They'll have earmarked this one as a must win. Need to see more from them second half if they are to avoid the trap door. Can't be dropping points in games like this

    How long does Jurgen Klopp give it before he turns to his bench? There's not a great deal of strength in depth. Xherdan Shaqiri, James Milner, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain...and a No 98!

    The players are making their way back out.

  10. 'We should have had a penalty'published at 20:11 Greenwich Mean Time 28 February 2021

    FT: Chelsea 0-0 Man Utd

    Manchester United

    Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, speaking to Sky Sports: "We should have had a penalty, 100 per cent. I don’t understand whatsoever, not at all. From here you can see it’s a handball but you think it’s our player who does it. When you look at it on the video it’s two points taken away from us.

    "I can’t say what I think about the referee. It’s all the outside talk and outside influence. You can read what they’re saying about the controversy on Harry Maguire and giving us penalties.

    "Defensively, our energy, attitude and pressing was spot on. With the ball, we weren't good enough. We didn’t create the chances we hoped for. If we get the goal at the end it’s the perfect away performance.

    "You’re pushing players forward to get a winning goal, but a clean sheet is always a foundation. We have loads of clean sheets against the top sides. I’ve said it before in these games, we need one goal to win."

  11. 'The senior players had to step up'published at 20:09 Greenwich Mean Time 28 February 2021

    FT: Leicester 1-3 Arsenal

    Arsenal

    Arsenal goalscorer Alexandre Lacazette said:

    "It's a really good win. We want to come back to the top of the league, to be as high up the table as possible.

    "We knew we had to win to come back. We played well. When we conceded, everyone stayed focus and stuck to the plan.

    "It's important that everyone plays well. Recently the young players have played really well. The senior players have had to step up.

    "Everyone wants to play. We have to perform really well to show the coach that we should be here.

    "We know it's really important to finish the season well. This win is going to give the team lots of confidence. We've come back from a losing position. It's really good for the spirit."

  12. 'Belief comes from Parker'published at 20:07 Greenwich Mean Time 28 February 2021

    FT: Crystal Palace 0-0 Fulham

    Fulham

    Fulham midfielder Ruben Loftus-Cheek: "It's kind of the story of our season. We're playing well and dominating games but can't see it off. We had a few chances to take the lead. It's a point so we'll take that.

    "We said before the game they are going to be a team who sit deep and defend well. They are hard to break down. We knew it would be a fight. We said we needed to take our chances but we couldn't.

    "We don't feel like losing at all. We are diligent in our defensive work and hard to break down. We don't fear goals conceded. It's just outscoring teams that we want to improve.

    "There is massive amounts of belief and that comes through the manager [Scott Parker]. He has been fantastic with the players. We feel belief in him and that spreads across the group. There is still a lot of games to play."

    On chatting to Palace boss Roy Hodgson at the end: "It was nice to see him. I had some good times at Palace. He's someone I have a massive amount of respect for. It was just a nice hello."

  13. 'Final ball let us down'published at 20:05 Greenwich Mean Time 28 February 2021

    FT: Chelsea 0-0 Man Utd

    Manchester United

    Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live: "It's a good clean sheet, when you get a clean sheet you always get one point but I was a bit disappointed with us on the ball. We didn't have the quality to create big chances, we had some good counter attacking opportunities but the final ball let us down.

    "Great pressing, good defending, probably not the nicest game to watch especially in the first half hour I thought was scrappy and poor so that was disappointing but tow good teams.

    On the penalty: "100% we should've had a penalty, it's a hand that slaps the ball in a not very natural position. 100% nailed on but nothing I can do about it now. He [the referee] had the chance to give it but I can't understand it, it would've given us a 1-0 win or it opens up the game and it's a better game for everyone.

    On finishing top four: "It's about taking the next step for this team, it's about winning games like this, we've had five or six clean sheets in these games but we don't score so we need to take these opportunities to take our chances."

    Right, time for a bit more reaction from today's earlier games. Let's start at Stamford Bridge.

    Liverpool are on top but the Blades are very much in this as half-time nears. At least the Reds haven't had an injury.

    I can't believe this - this is the problem at Liverpool at the moment. This time last year this would've been 4-0 at this point, game over, it's still 0-0!

    Chris Wilder will be saying look we keep going and keep fighting and we'll get an opportunity - because Liverpool will make a mistake and that's what's been happening and that's why they've lost the last four games.

  19. GREAT SAVE!published at 39 mins

    Sheff Utd 0-0 Liverpool

    It's Aaron Ramsdale 0-0 Liverpool.

    Another excellent stop from the keeper after Georginio Wijnaldum darts into the box and digs out a shot which the keeper does ever so well to get down and beat away.

    Last week it was Jordan Pickford. This week it's Ramsdale who is keeping the Reds at bay.

    Paul Walmsley: We're back to that period where every keeper playing against Liverpool plays an absolute blinder, aren't we?

    RSm: Looks like Manuel Neuer is playing for Sheff United this week. He did well for Everton last week against Liverpool.
