  1. Thank you and goodnightpublished at 23:00 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January 2023

    That is all from us for tonight.

    Join us again tomorrow as Chelsea host Manchester City.

    Night all.

  2. 'We didn't deserve to lose 4-0'published at 22:59 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January 2023

    FT: Crystal Palace 0-4 Tottenham

    Crystal Palace

    Palace boss Patrick Vieira to BBC Sport: "It was a tough night for us. We conceded four goals. It’s difficult to accept. We have to analyse in a different way. Tonight we should have scored more goals.

    "Lloris made some good saves. We did at times not make the right decision in the last third. We suffered in the first 15 minutes but then went toe to toe with them. My players, the team didn’t deserve to lose that game 4-0.

    “When looking at their front payers, we knew we’d have to be really close and not give them space. When you give them space you get punished.

    “Their team showed resilience and good organisation. They accepted to go through that difficult period. That’s the experience they showed today. We showed we could be naïve with the way we defended. We still have to progress. We still have to learn from those mistakes. Keep challenging and working hard.

    “When looking at the game again we can be disappointed not to take our chances in the firs thalf. We won the ball a couple of times in the final third and our decision making wasn’t the best. We have young players. Those games will make them better.

    “I don’t have any doubts about the fans. You saw the way they reacted. We tried our best. We have to learn and be more clinical. I have to challenge them [players] more than I have been doing.

    "We conceded seven goals in our last two games at home and that’s a lot. We have to find the right balance. Taking our chances would be a massive help as well."

  3. 'Bailey crying is good'published at 22:59 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January 2023

    FT: Aston Villa 1-1 Wolves

    Aston Villa

    Aston Villa manager Unai Emery speaking to BBC Sport: "In the first half we didn't play like we wanted to and in the second half we improved a lot. We played with heart.

    "I think I can be a little bit happier than not because after their goal they also had some chances in the second half. This draw is keeping in our mind the need to improve and carry on in the next months."

    On Leon Bailey's chance to win the game: "Yes it's a huge chance. He was crying but it is good. If he is crying it is because he was feeling, and to feel moments like that and have the responsibility is good. I want them to have the responsibility to do their best. I think in the match played today Bailey was good and he started with a very good chance in the first five minutes and the chance at the end. If he can feel these chances were a good opportunity for the team I think it is good."

  4. 'We were not clinical enough'published at 22:59 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January 2023

    FT: Crystal Palace 0-4 Tottenham

    Crystal Palace

    Crystal Palace boss Patrick Vieira, speaking to Sky Sports: "A tough night. Conceding four goals is not something pleasant but I don't feel it reflects the quality of the game we played today. When they scored their first goal it became difficult for us.

    "We had situations. I think we were not clinical enough, we didn't take our chances. Hugo Lloris made a couple of important saves.

    "We were brave, we showed quality but at the same time the fact we conceded four goals shows there are still a lot of things we need to improve.

    "We have young players in our team. Their experience allowed them to be strong and score their goals. You have to give credit to Tottenham because they looked really solid, they waited for their moment to take their chances. I believe the 4-0 is hard for us, is hard for my players and hard for the club."

  5. 'Palace away is not an easy game'published at 22:57 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January 2023

    Crystal Palace 0-4 Spurs

    Tottenham Hotspur

    Spurs defender Matt Doherty: " Palace away is not an easy game I thought we started the first 10-15 minutes quite well and then they kind of took over. But, look we in the game managed to through to half time, it was very important that we didn't concede first as we know what our record has been like lately. But it just goes to show that when we do score first the confidence starts to fly out of everybody and it kind of shows what we our capable of."

    Michael: I'm a Spurs sufferer so am pleased with the result but Southampton fans calling for the sacking of their manager is ridiculous when he has just the experience needed next season in the Championship.

  7. 'The players needed confidence'published at 22:56 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January 2023

    FT: Crystal Palace 0-4 Tottenham

    Tottenham Hotspur

    Spurs boss Antonio Conte to BBC Sport: “We started the game well. We created difficulties for Palace. After 20-25 minutes we lost a bit of possession and had a few situations to concede a goal. My players tried to play again and to exploit the situation. We moved the ball very well in midfield and moved it from one side to the other. I’m really happy. Kane has scored twice, also Sonny. Finally he scored. He’s a important player for us. He needed to score for his confidence.

    “Finally the most important thing is facing this period with many young payers. We started with Gil, Skippy and they played very well. Sarr played really well. It was the first game for White. A lot of positive things. Tomorrow is another day. You have to start to think of the next game. We want to go to the next round of the FA Cup. Today was very important to get three points.

    “Against Aston Villa the game was positive, especially the first half. We dominated the game. Then we conceded the goal and I understood it killed our confidence. Maybe it was one of the few times that happened. Many situations when we went down, we showed great character to come back and win the game. Today it was important. It showed we are in a good moment. The players needed confidence. It was important for our fans. They need to understand we need them. Our fans are really important for us.

    “We started the second part of the season with 2-2 against Brentford and to see their last result [beating Liverpool], maybe it was a good result. We lost to Aston Villa, now a good win against Crystal Palace. I hope to rediscover some of the injured players because you know the importance to have all players available. The response makes me happy.”

  8. 'A good reaction'published at 22:56 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January 2023

    FT: Crystal Palace 0-4 Tottenham

    Tottenham Hotspur

    Tottenham boss Antonio Conte, speaking to Sky Sports: "It was a good reaction. It is not easy to win against Crystal Palace away. We are talking about a really good team, well organised.

    "In the second half we exploited chances to score and we finished with a good final result.

    "The message was to continue to play because we started the game very well. In the second part of the first half we lost a bit of the possession. I said it was really important to continue to move the ball and find the space to attack. We played a good game, well organised without the ball also.

    "I am happy because our strikers scored, Harry scored twice and Son finally scored and it was really important for him because he is a player who needs to score to feel confidence in himself.

    "We didn't concede a goal and that is another positive situation. We need to continue to work. In this period we are playing with many young players. During the World Cup I had the opportunity to work with these young players. It was important.

    "The character of this team has always shown a great character. I think only maybe in the last game against Aston Villa, after a really good first half, when we conceded a goal maybe this was the only game we didn't have a strong reaction but otherwise we showed every game great character. This team always wants to fight to avoid to lose and they know I hate to lose.

    "It is really important. We got the three points and that is important because we continue to stay close for the good position. When you don't win you risk the confidence to go down and for us it was important to win away at Crystal Palace. It is not easy to play away here.

    "I am happy because we used many young players and that is important for the players and the future."

  9. 'We're in a bad position but we're in a good way'published at 22:56 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January 2023

    FT: Aston Villa 1-1 Wolves

    Wolves

    Wolves manager Julen Lopetegui to BBC Sport: "We have fought for the three points and we came very close.

    "In the second half we maybe have problems because we made a big effort in the first half. We didn't have a lot of options in midfield and in the end it is a pity.

    "In the end they pushed a lot and in the end they had a clear chance with Leon Bailey in the last minute, but we had chances to close the match. I prefer to be positive, against a big team like Aston Villa."

    On Daniel Podence, who was brought off with an injury: "We don't know. He had problems with his calf and he could not continue in the second half. Podence is an important player for us.

    "It's a derby and we want to win for our fans because we need three points, we are in a bad position in the table but I know it will be a hard and long race. At the same time, I think we are in a good way."

  10. 'Overall I'm pleased'published at 22:55 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January 2023

    FT: Leeds 2-2 West Ham

    West Ham United

    West Ham manager David Moyes: "I felt as if we'd go on and win the game tonight, but we couldn't quite hold it.

    "We gave away a couple of really poor goals and there was a period where we couldn't keep the ball in the second half, but overall I'm pleased.

    "That's two games in a row where we have conceded two, it certainly is a problem at the moment.

    "I think we have a really good group of players. They're all working really hard, their attitude is spot on.

    "But we just need those qualities. We still lacked a bit where you thought we might build up and get a third goal."

  11. Deadly duopublished at 22:53 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January 2023

    FT: Crystal Palace 0-4 Tottenham

    Tottenham's Harry Kane and Son Heung-min have now both scored in 34 different Premier League games, overtaking Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane as the most of any duo in the competition.

  12. Kane enjoys century milestonespublished at 22:53 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January 2023

    FT: Crystal Palace 0-4 Tottenham

    Spurs striker Harry Kane made his 300th Premier League appearance against Crystal Palace, while he’s now just the second player in the competition’s history after Teddy Sheringham to score on his 100th, 200th and 300th appearance.

    Palace became the sixth different side Harry Kane has now scored at least 10 Premier League goals against following his brace, only Alan Shearer (12) and Wayne Rooney (7) have done so against more different opponents in the competition’s history.

  13. 'I'm feeling fit and fresh'published at 22:53 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January 2023

    Crystal Palace 0-4 Tottenham

    Tottenham Hotspur

    Spurs striker Harry Kane to BBC Sport: "I thought we started the game well. We pressed well and moved it in the first 15-20 minutes but we lacked the final third delivery or shot. Then they had a better spell.

    "At half-time we got it back to moving and switching. In the final third we were more creative and clinical. Two quick goals helped kill the game off.

    "[The first goal] was nice. Ivan put a great ball in. The second one was something I practice a lot, quick touch and finish before the keeper can get set."

    On scoring more goals than Alan Shearer in his first 300 Premier League games: "It's always nice when you get spoken about with players like Alan. I have to keep it going. I'm feeling fresh and fit so hopefully can finish the season strong."

    On Son Heung-min: "I'm really happy for him. He's been working really hard. Somtimes you need a bit of luck to go your way. Hopefully it can give him the confidence to kick-start the rest of his season.

    "It was a really important three points away from home. It's not an easy game. Now it's about using this momentum in the games ahead."

  15. Derby joy for Spurspublished at 22:52 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January 2023

    FT: Crystal Palace 0-4 Tottenham

    This was Tottenham’s joint-biggest London derby win away from home in the Premier League, after beating Wimbledon 6-2 in May 1998, while it’s Crystal Palace’s joint-biggest London derby defeat at home in the top-flight, following a pair of 5-1 defeats to Arsenal and Chelsea in 1969-70.

  16. 'We've got to step up'published at 22:51 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January 2023

    FT: Leeds 1-1 West Ham

    Leeds United

    Leeds boss Jesse Marsch, speaking to BBC Sport:

    "It was obviously great when we pushed in the game. This is a little bit what we're like. We play better when our backs are against the wall and when we play against top opponents.

    "When we need to be brave and play in games we should be in command, that's what we find difficult and why we are not playing the way we want to right now.

    "Obviously to get two goals and to come from behind and push for a third, that's typical us again. But I am trying to get us to be better than just a team who just has heart as a mentality.

    "We need the players to believe in themselves. They go through moments in the match where they are nervy, they don't want the ball or commit to tactics. We don't look the way we should be.

    "What hurts me in these moments is I want to play with the team, I want to be at my best. David Moyes is a guy I have watched for many years and I guy that I respect and I am excited by the challenge of playing against his team.

    "But we've got to find a way as a group to step up and individually find our quality.

    "It's confidence and belief and commitment to do the simple things we need to do at the highest level. Will we be up and down or will we continue to show progress?"

  17. West Ham on the spotpublished at 22:51 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January 2023

    FT: Leeds 2-2 West Ham

  19. 'Hopefully this is a turning point for me'published at 22:50 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January 2023

    FT: Crystal Palace 0-4 Tottenham

    Tottenham Hotspur

    Tottenham forward Son Heung-min, speaking to Sky Sports: "This is a difficult place to come and play well. In the second half we turned it around and scored four goals. We dominated the game in the second half."

    On ending his run without a goal: "It felt amazing. It was about time. I felt really sorry for the team because I think they are expecting I am doing more than I have done so I am hoping today is a turning point.

    "I am working, we are working really hard to be consistent. The goal is always important to get confidence back, It was really, really important for me. I hope I can score many goals in the coming games."

  20. 'No one seems to be able to put it away'published at 22:50 Greenwich Mean Time 4 January 2023

    Crystal Palace 0-4 Spurs

    Glenn Murray
    Former Crystal Palace striker on BBC Radio 5 Live

    They played ever so well but they didn't have that man in the middle, that sort of stature in the middle of the goal because some balls that came in especially from Michael Olise were brilliant balls begging to be finished but there was just no one there.

    They have a lot of good creators, a lot of good flair players in and around that attacking third but no one seems to be able to put it away for Crystal Palace at the moment.
