    Jonjo Kenny's started superbly. Looks comfortable, disciplined and mature. Yet another promising English fullback.

    FT: Crystal Palace 1-1 Burnley

    Crystal Palace

    Crystal Palace manager Patrick Vieira speaking to BBC Sport: “Overall we didn’t create very much in the first half and in the second half we could not score the second goal. They put us under pressure at the back and forced us to play too many long balls.

    "They scored a goal that plays to their strengths and [Luka Milivojevic] was unlucky because we were well positioned. We have to give them credit for the way they played.

    "At times I think he [Michael Olise] was good. We all know about his talent. He is really good on the one versus one, he can stay on the right or come inside and is someone who can provide chances or score goals.

    "But at times you can see he is still young and learning the game at that level we will give him the support he needs to improve his game."

  9. Give me a break - Hodgsonpublished at 17:47 Greenwich Mean Time 26 February 2022

    FT: Man Utd 0-0 Watford

    Watford boss Roy Hodgson just gave a very funny final answer in his post-match press conference.

    I don't think he was too impressed with my first question, asking him if he ever felt confident about getting a draw given Manchester United were so much on top.

    But, having stepped into allow the final question when his media officer was ready to call time on the conference, Hodgson was taken a aback when asked about his potential team selection for next Sunday's home game against Arsenal.

    "I have just watched my team bottom of the table, draw with a team of superstars who have had a billion pounds spent on them and you are asking me about next week," he said. "Give me a break."

    City starting to find their rhythm, switching passes right and left before bringing it back.

    Then Phil Foden bursts into life close to the byeline, but a cross is put out of play by Michael Keane.

  11. 'Always going to be a hard-fought draw'published at 17:46 Greenwich Mean Time 26 February 2022

    FT: Man Utd 0-0 Watford

    Watford

    Watford boss Roy Hodgson told Match of the Day:

    “It’s always going to be hard-fought draw here.

    “We have a real top-class goalkeeper, certainly Premiership class and possibly above that. If you going to play up here, as we did today with the team we had to put out, you are going to need Ben Foster because there is no way we can be good enough to restrict them to not even one chance in the game.

    “The boys did as much as we could ask of them today. I’m really proud of their performance and they should be proud of their performance. I expected to go into the dressing room to see people leaping about with glee, but I didn’t see that. They obviously have very high expectations of themselves.

    “Can we stay that steadfast in defence? Can we get the work out of our three front players which we had today? They were fantastic. Can those three midfield players cover as much ground? Already we have the best stats in the past three or four games than we have probably had all season for running. We have to keep that going.

    “There is no easier way, but there will be plenty more of these games to come. The thing that is most pleasing today is that we did get a good draw up here and we got it by working hard and playing quite well. We should be able to believe that if we can keep reproducing performances like that, then we will pick up points. Man United are still one of the best teams in the league.”

  12. The Goodison effectpublished at 17:45 Greenwich Mean Time 26 February 2022

    Everton manager Frank Lampard often speaks about the 'Goodison effect' and it's clear his side's fans know they have a part to play here against the Premier League leaders.

    The roof came off when they won their first corner just now but the volume was even higher when the home side won the ball back quickly by closing down City as they looked to break. The Everton fans are on their feet every time they win a tackle.

  13. Watford 'buzzing' to take pointpublished at 17:43 Greenwich Mean Time 26 February 2022

    FT: Man Utd 0-0 Watford

    Watford

    Watford goalkeeper Ben Foster:

    “It’s nice to come here and keep a clean sheet. I just think for us we need to be more clinical in front of goal and we need a bit more belief.

    "We had a few decent half chances today. I think we limited them to very few chances as well.

    "We need that little bit more belief, but that is probably a symptom of where we are in the league.

    "As long as we can start keeping clean sheets, which we have done since Roy [Hodgson] came in, we can build from that.

    "On balance of play they had more of the ball, they had more possession, more chances and all the kind of stuff. We survived a few close scares today.

    "Don’t get me wrong, I’m buzzing with a point today and a clean sheet."

    Well, the Toffees supporters do need to get behind their team because defeat today would leave Everton just one point and one place above the relegation zone.
