    Where is the PL going when Bernardo is held in the box by a Spurs player and nothing is given? Was this not why VAR was introduced?

    Is this a huge 30 minutes in City's season? Maybe.

    Dan: Arise Sir Harold. His all round game has been incredible today.

    Rachel: HARRY KANE! I do believe he is one of our own!

    GOAL - Man City 1-2 Spurspublished at 59 mins

    Harry Kane

    Harry Kane scores against the side most people expected him to join last summer.

    He starts the move on his own half and plays it out to Son Heung-min. The South Korean and Ryan Sessegnon play a one-two and Son crosses for Kane to sweep a first-time shot into the top corner.

    Harry Kane plays the same ball from his own half again to Dejan Kulusevski but the Swede might be offside anyway and it runs to Ederson.

    Harry Kane these days reminds me of when Oxford signed Dave Kitson as a striker and ended up playing him as a holding midfielder.

    Man City 1-1 Spurs

    Not the first time Spurs have joy with this exact ball today. Harry Kane pings a long low pass into the path of Son Heung-min, who runs 30 yards and shoots but it's saved by Ederson. Kyle Walker's pace may have limited the damage there.

    Man City 1-1 Spurs

    City almost score from the corner. Kevin de Bruyne whips it in and Ruben Dias hooks it across goal at the near post. If anybody is following up they'd have an open goal to score into - but nobody is there.

    A lot of fuss about nothing with pushing and shoving in the box as everyone awaits a City corner. The referee speaks to the captains.

    City are already enjoying the possession they had for most of the first half. What they need is more of the intensity they had just before the break. The home crowd are trying to help...

    Kevin de Bruyne takes and it's headed behind for another corner.

    Phil Foden crosses in but Ruben Dias' header is saved.

    Scott: Actually think lloris had been good recently, but the thing that explains it quite simply is... he signed a new contract last month.

    Tunde Paul: Pep barking out instructions to 3 of his players during that short (injury) break, perhaps telling them to shoot at goal and expect a rebound from Hugo Lloris.

    ThePenaltyHasKilledFootball: If Spurs don't change anything, it'll end 3 or 4-1. They could be much more efficient putting City under pressure rather than taking a mauling & hoping to come out still standing at the bell!

    I told you there was a lot of reaction to get through. I hope you read them all thoroughly. There will be questions on them later.

    (There won't - I didn't even read them all).

    FT: Southampton 2-0 Everton

    Southampton

    Southampton boss Ralph Hasenhuttl speaking to BBC Sport: "The best moment in a home game is when you go around celebrating a win together after a hard-working win. The more you work, the more you enjoy the win.

    "We had a strong opponent, we faced a lot of energy in the first half and new belief. They tried to stress us early, it was hard to release the pressure. After the first 15 minutes we found a better game and had a few counter attacks.

    "We said at half time that we had to keep the tempo high and the moments would come. The guys did a fantastic job.

    "It was a fantastic finish [from Stuart Armstrong] and fantastic play. We are much calmer around the box, I have the feeling now that everyone is looking for players in better positions when you are in positions to score.

    "He [Shane Long] was the perfect sub and I am very happy he scored. It is a very good run and an important run and we are coming to a time where we play team in the lower half of the league."

    Jordan Henderson - who teed up Luis Diaz for his first Liverpool goal - speaks to Match of the Day: "He's been brilliant since he came in. His work rate in training and games. His quality as well one versus one. His finishing you can see is top drawer as well. So I'm really pleased for him. Hopefully that will give him a boost in confidence to keep going.

    "When he makes the run it's easy to play the pass. It's a great pass and finish so I should be thanking him."

    Watford and Burnley deserved to win, they were magnificent performances. They’ve also made Leeds, Everton and Brentford look nervously over their shoulders.

    Newcastle play Brentford next and could go above them if they win.

  18. 'There is belief in these players'published at 18:26 Greenwich Mean Time 19 February 2022

    FT: Liverpool 3-1 Norwich

    Norwich City

    Norwich boss Dean Smith speaking to Match of the Day: "We believed coming here right from the start, there is a great belief in the group of players we have got.

    "They had some big chances but we created some big chances as well. We got the goal, started the second half really well on the front foot. We needed to see out that pressure, the crowd had got up, if we had gone a couple more minutes without conceding it might have turned it around for us.

    "Their quality told in the end, they look to draw you out of little slots and all three goals came from there. It is tired minds that cost you in the end more than tired legs.

    "I feel for the players today because they left everything out on the pitch, there are bits we can work on but we are playing against top quality players, if we take that performance into the next few games we will be OK."

  19. 'No excuses, we didn't play well'published at 18:25 Greenwich Mean Time 19 February 2022

    FT: West Ham 1-1 Newcastle

    West Ham United

    West Ham boss David Moyes speaking to Match of the Day: "A good point because the way we played I wasn't sure we were going to get any - the point is the positive we take from it, we never reached the level we can reach.

    "I felt we were in good shape with the training during the week. No excuses, we just didn't play well today.

    "Let's be fair, Newcastle had one or two opportunities in the fist half, so did we, we just didn't deal well with those balls in the box today and that was one that led to the goal."

    On what he said to Said Benrahma when he was substituted: "I wanted him to run off fast so I could get my substitute on as time was ticking away and I wanted to use every second we had at home."

    On West Ham's form: "Four unbeaten, so depending on how you want to spin it, in the situations where you don't play well it is important to keep picking up points.

    "I am looking forward to getting back to that level of performance and hopefully it is not too far away.

    "We have got a great group of players and for the last year or two they have performed really well."

  20. 'We didn't create enough'published at 18:25 Greenwich Mean Time 19 February 2022

    FT: Aston Villa 0-1 Watford

    Aston Villa

    Aston Villa manager Steven Gerrard told BBC MOTD: "The result is the same, that’s the reality. We carried the frustration on from last week.

    "That’s on me, we’ve only taken one point from our last three games.

    "It’s a bad combination in football when you concede goals and don’t score many. I need to take that on my shoulders and the players need to as well. We need to stick together.

    "I’m not going to grasp at straws, the reality is we never had enough quality in the final third. We didn’t creative enough. Ben Foster didn’t have enough to do, especially at home.

    "It’s not difficult for me to motivate the players, but motivating yourself comes from within. That’s on you as a footballer."
