Chapter 1: What were the highlights of Newcastle's victory over Manchester United?

8.688 - 31.106 Unknown

Huge result for Newcastle, Manchester United stunned by that defeat.

0

Chapter 2: How did Jose Mourinho react to the defeat against Newcastle?

31.146 - 33.75 David Jones

Jose Mourinho's reaction now with Jeff Shreves.

0

35.249 - 37.592 Thierry Henry

Jesse, can you believe in the sheer number of chances that you had?

0

Chapter 3: What did the experts say about the chances created by Manchester United?

37.692 - 38.754 Thierry Henry

You didn't get anything out today.

0

39.695 - 60.542 Jose Mourinho

Yeah, but I'm sorry. But they fought like animals. And animal is, I think, is a good word in football. I hope they understand it as a compliment. They gave everything they had. And then the gods of football were with them.

0

Chapter 4: What defensive mistakes led to Newcastle's goal?

60.983 - 64.227 Jose Mourinho

But I repeat, they fought like animals to have that luck in their side.

0

64.342 - 72.427 Thierry Henry

I saw you go straight over at the final whistle and shake Rafa Benitez's hand with a smile on your face as if to say to yourself, it just wasn't going to happen for us today. Yeah, it wasn't going to happen for us.

0

73.55 - 99.749 Jose Mourinho

But also... They give what they have and what they don't have. And I think that's a beautiful thing in football. I think they must have the best feeling of all. Sometimes a better feeling than when you play fantastically well and you are better than the opponent. They fought for their point. I think a point for them was what they had in mind.

0

Chapter 5: How did Liverpool secure their win against Southampton?

100.57 - 126.258 Jose Mourinho

We made a defensive mistake in... in a lateral free kick, and then when they are in front, they had only one thing in their mind, gave their lives to keep a clean sheet. It was not just up to them, it was also the gods of football. But I repeat, I think it's a beautiful way to win a football match the way they did. You took Paul Pogba off the game.

0

126.318 - 130.783 Thierry Henry

Was he fully fit? Because he came in early from the warm-up. You seem to be checking on him during the game.

0

131.524 - 132.124 Jose Mourinho

No, no, no.

0

132.144 - 138.689 Thierry Henry

I think no problems. You made the change before the goal went in. What was not happening? What were you looking to change in your midfield?

0

139.87 - 163.536 Jose Mourinho

You know, I want a better way to come out in the first phase against a team that was defending in a very compact block. I was trying that with the simplicity of Michael Carrick because he tries to make everything simple and bring Alexis to an area close to...

Chapter 6: What role did Mo Salah play in Liverpool's victory?

163.516 - 183.313 Jose Mourinho

to Lukaku where it could be like a second striker to try to win the game. I was unlucky because they scored the goal in the seconds before that and then I'm going to face a different Newcastle, a Newcastle that in that moment the only thing they think is to defend.

0

183.293 - 193.108 David Jones

We've got to rush through this. Kick-off is not too far away here at St Mary's between Southampton and Liverpool. But first, a great chance at nil-nil, Thierry, for Alexis Sanchez. Why doesn't he shoot?

0

193.529 - 209.935 Mo Salah

I actually don't know. Great pass from Rolukaku. I thought he was very good today. And now, go around the ball and shoot, and he didn't, and he allowed... I think it was Lesion that made the recovery there. He has a look. I don't know why he doesn't shoot. Before that, what a recovery from Newcastle.

0

209.955 - 217.066 Mo Salah

And as Mourinho said, they did fight like animals in the bracket, but you still had the opportunity to kill that game.

0

217.326 - 221.873 David Jones

The free kick comes for Chris Smalling being penalised for diving, Graham.

Chapter 7: How significant is the race for Champions League places after this weekend?

222.053 - 223.255 David Jones

What is he thinking of here?

0

223.776 - 235.532 Graeme Souness

Well, he's not getting the ball, is he? It's away from him here, watch. It's away from him, so I'm going to try and get a foul and we'll keep possession. And this is a great decision by the referee. And what is that defensive mistake then now that Jose is talking about? Well, there's two.

0

235.572 - 260.203 Graeme Souness

There's Matic and Pogba there, and then we haven't got time to analyse, but Richie gets a free run into the box because prior to the ball being kicked, there's been no communication, either with... These two here, Matic and Pogba, who's got who? You can't get a free header like that inside your own box that deep. And then we will examine it after the game.

0

260.223 - 269.455 Graeme Souness

Richie, I think there's Sanchez and Lingard with them outside the box, and Richie's allowed to drift into the box because we know this is my man, that's your man, prior to the ball being kicked.

0

269.515 - 279.028 David Jones

Brilliant composure there for Matt Richie, who scores with his 44th shot of the season, his first goal. He's a hero, but what about the man in goal for Newcastle today on his debut, Thierry?

279.008 - 287.742 Mo Salah

I thought that the whole team was brilliant, but obviously, especially at the end again, and the whole game, he has been really, really good. We saw that he was good with his feet.

287.762 - 288.764 Unknown

He seemed very calm, didn't he?

289.044 - 297.018 Mo Salah

Yes, he did. But, you know, when you play that first game, sometimes he goes all wrong or all good. And today, for him, it turned out to be a good game.

Chapter 8: What are the implications of Southampton's performance for their relegation battle?

297.058 - 303.669 Mo Salah

And what a save there. He had a couple in the first half, again in the second half. But I thought he had a good game. Yes, I liked the team, though.

0

303.689 - 319.86 Graeme Souness

Quick thoughts on Newcastle. How deserving were they? Fantastic. Yeah, you know, the bodies on the line, all the old clichés you could trot out. They were determined not to lose today. You know, United had some fabulous chances another day to get a goal. But all credit to Newcastle for sticking with it. You know, they weren't going to get beat today.

0

320.582 - 323.207 Graeme Souness

That's what they started out with and eventually got a goal to win it.

0

329.515 - 349.622 Unknown

Oh, and it's a mistake there by Hoots, and Salah, and Firmino puts Liverpool in front. Well, a defensive catastrophe for Southampton, and Salah's in, and Salah scores! One early, one late in the first half, Salah made the first, he notches the second, it's 22 now in the Premier League this season.

0

350.263 - 357.092 David Jones

And from there, there was no way back for Southampton. Mo Salah, and a winning return for Virgil van Dijk with Greg Whelan.

358.726 - 362.451 Thierry Henry

Gentlemen, well done. Mo, was that as straightforward in the end as it looked?

364.053 - 382.455 Mo Salah

Yeah, first of all, I want to say, you know, three points very important for us. It was a great start, you know, first five minutes we scored, that's made the game a bit easier, so we're calm. Then we were looking forward to score the second one and everyone was performing very good today, so that's the most important thing.

382.655 - 386.62 Thierry Henry

Scoring as early as you did, that was the ideal start in many respects, wasn't it?

386.84 - 403.922 Mo Salah

Yeah, I think it's always when you score first 10, 15 minutes, it makes the game easier and you are not under pressure anymore. You're still under pressure because you want to get the three points, but it makes the game easier, so I'm very happy for the starter and we have to keep looking forward.
