00:00Of course, I mentioned the players who have lost.
00:01Kyle Walker was so pivotal in what they needed to do in terms of that transition.
00:06And they've just not replaced it.
00:07And not just good players they've lost.
00:09They were big characters in that restroom.
00:11The standards Man City have set over the last years have been fantastic.
00:14And the list of players there, big players and big characters,
00:18and they've struggled to replace them.
00:20And what about Manchester United?
00:21We heard from Ruben Amrim in his press conference building up to this game
00:25that, yes, they beat City here last season,
00:27but they're a very different side.
00:29And he talked about the data pointing to the fact that they have made improvement.
00:33We've dug out a few stats, Roy.
00:35I know you're a huge stats fan.
00:36So let's have a look.
00:40After three games, they had more shots than anybody else.
00:44They had the most touches in the opposition box,
00:46the highest number of expected goals,
00:48and actually defensively an improvement in that sense.
00:51They faced the third fewest shots.
00:53And they led the way for fast breaks.
00:55And that indicates the kind of style that he's leaning towards.
00:58Yeah, well, we've said that at the start of the season against Arsenal.
01:01There's certainly a bit more.
01:02They look nicer on the eye.
01:03There's a bit more pace, a bit more power.
01:05And that's well and good.
01:06I still have, obviously, me worries about, obviously, midfield and the goalkeeper.
01:10So, yeah, the signs are good that they're going to be more of a goal threat.
01:13Even the last game, I know it's against Burnley,
01:14but to score three goals will give them some sort of encouragement.
01:18But, obviously, it's a different challenge today, of course, for them.
01:21But, yeah, the signs are a little bit better, but still use question marks.
01:25And another test for United today will obviously be here against City,
01:28who you'd expect.
01:30So, it looks like Sir Bosley has won favour with his performance against Arsenal.
01:35Eke Tike continuing up top with Florian Wirtz behind him
01:39and Cody Gakpo towards the left.
01:42Let's hear then from the Liverpool boss.
01:44Arne Slott is with Jamie Carragher.
01:46And at Turfmoor for us, Juliet Farrington.
01:51Arne, thank you very much for joining us.
01:53Welcome to Burnley.
01:54It's a little bit chilly for you, isn't it, right now?
01:56With our disc coat, it's a bit chilly.
02:00Talk to us about the team,
02:02because you talked in the build-up to this about Alexander Isak.
02:05So much has been said about him since you brought him to Liverpool,
02:09but he's not even here, not even on the bench today.
02:11No, not today.
02:13As everybody knew, he didn't have any team training at Newcastle,
02:18then went to the national team, only played there for 15, 20 minutes.
02:21And we think with a week where we play three games in seven days,
02:27this is the best lead-up for him to be available against Atletico Madrid.
02:32And how short is he fitness-wise?
02:35Because, I mean, you can imagine Liverpool supporters are all really excited about the sign
02:38and they want to see him as quickly as possible.
02:39But how long do you think it will be before he will be up to full speed, really?
02:45That's always difficult to say, up to full speed.
02:47What I can say is normally in a pre-season, after one or two weeks,
02:50you play your first 45 to 60 minutes and you build that up gradually.
02:54But that you do with proper training sessions during the week.
02:58Now we hardly have any proper training session with the team
03:01because we play, like I just said, three games in seven days.
03:05So where would he be second, third week of pre-season, I would say?
03:09So able to hopefully play during the week 45 minutes or more.
03:15But then two days later, as you know, we play Everton again.
03:20So it's going to be interesting for performance staff for us
03:23to get the best out of him from the start, but also keep him available till the end.
03:28Because another player that wasn't available for team-filling a long time,
03:32the one from Brentford, Wieser, he got two 90-minute games
03:35and he's out with an injury now for four weeks or maybe the wrong, I don't know.
03:38But that tells you how difficult the balance is with a player
03:42that missed team sessions for such a long time.
03:46Dominic Soboslav is fantastic against Arsenal in a new role,
03:50certainly in the last couple of games.
03:52But you've got your two right-backs back.
03:53They're both on the bench.
03:55Do you now have three right-backs?
03:57Maybe even more players who can play there.
04:00But again, same for that situation as well.
04:04We play three games in seven days.
04:07We will play, probably will play Dominic this week on the midfield as well.
04:12And the other ones will have playing time maybe even today,
04:15but definitely during the week or this upcoming week.
04:19But for today, we decided to keep the same team that played Arsenal and did really well.
04:24You've shown vulnerabilities, haven't you, in the opening three matches, Arna?
04:28Despite the perfect start, despite being the position...
04:30The WSL, where Manchester United are having a very good day so far.
04:35Malvin Mallard helping them to a 4-0 lead in that game,
04:38continuing on Sky Sports Plus,
04:40and that's after they won the first game 4-0 as well last weekend.
04:45So it is the Manchester derby today,
04:47and next we'll hear from the goal machine,
04:50who always knew this City move would pay off.
04:54It might be a bit arrogant to say,
04:57you can say whatever you want,
04:59but I knew that I was going to come in and perform.
05:02Speaking with Pep and the whole club, you know,
05:05I kind of, I was so confident that it was going to go well.

07:04It's pronounced fire.
07:05For a reason.
07:09What's to say about it?
07:10He's already scored nine times this season
07:12for club and country.
07:14Five for Norway
07:14on one night against Moldova
07:16and before the break at Brighton.
07:18He was on the score sheet as well
07:20marking his 100th Premier League appearance.
07:23And he's got incredible numbers.
07:24For the man
07:25who announced himself from the off.
07:29Hello there.
07:36To understand that the past is the past
07:38we're not the same team anymore
07:41we have to adapt
07:41you know
07:42we have to
07:42and we also
07:43we have to perform
07:44that's in the end
07:45the most important thing
07:46we played a way
07:47that we
07:48won everything
07:49which was amazing
07:51and
07:51now I think football is changing as well
07:53you have to
07:54still of course
07:55stick to your
07:56to your
07:58I don't know how to say
07:59principles
08:00principles
08:01in the team
08:01you have to
08:02adapt
08:04with the people
08:05you play with
08:05and everything
08:06so it's difficult to me
08:07to say what's different
08:08and different than everything
08:09but what's sure
08:10is City has to win
08:11we have to win games
08:12and we have to fight for titles
08:14that's
08:14what we have to do.
08:16Erling Haaland
08:21in thoughtful mood
08:22you can hear the full version of that
08:24on the Sky Sports Premier League
08:26YouTube channel
08:27right now
08:28in conversation
08:29with Patrick Davison
08:30and you saw as well
08:31sporting the scars
08:31of a brush
08:32I think with the Norway
08:33team bus door
08:35which caught him
08:37unfortunately
08:38interesting hearing him
08:39talking about being nervous
08:40you suffered from nerves
08:42when you were a player?
08:43Yeah but I think that's good
08:43I worry when people
08:45aren't nervous
08:45that means because you care
08:46and you're an edge
08:47and yeah
08:48I thought it was a really good piece
08:50he sport well
08:51and we all know
08:53about strikers
08:53we know his record
08:54his stats are fantastic
08:55an amazing striker
08:56but no
08:57the way he's coming across here
08:58he's obviously 25 now
08:59he's looking maybe
09:00at the bigger picture
09:01he's obviously a big role at City
09:03with a lot of the senior players leaving
09:04and he's got to take that on board
09:06now
09:06that leadership
09:06and I get the impression
09:08he is a voice in that dressing room
09:09and he will be frustrated
09:10and we see clips sometimes
09:11when City are conceding goals
09:13he's on the halfway line
09:14and he's
09:14he's obviously frustrated
09:16so yeah he's got a
09:17he's got a big role to play
09:18with City over the next few years
09:20just on that
09:20the top players
09:21getting nervous
09:22so
09:22I was intrigued when he said that
09:25because I didn't think
09:26he would be nervous
09:27like
09:27you've been a top player
09:29yeah
09:30what sort of nerves
09:32what sort of nerves
09:32was that
09:32is that more pressure on yourself
09:35or just the game itself
09:36I think it brings an edge to your game
09:38now again everybody's different
09:40but when I was in the dressing room
09:41before big games
09:42I liked that nervousness
09:43to me that gave you a bit of energy
09:45a bit of fear
09:45you weren't
09:46did it ever stop you performing
09:48no I don't think so
09:48no
09:49not at that stage
09:50not at the level where you're
09:52frightened of the game
09:53or you're frightened of losing
09:55whatever
09:55but that fear
09:56and that tension
09:57and that nervous energy
09:58I think that can be a plus
09:59I think it can give you energy
10:01to mean your care
10:02now I used to look at other lads
10:03sometimes
10:04and people like Dwight York
10:05and that
10:05and they'd be a bit more laid back
10:06and everybody's different
10:08but for me
10:08I was
10:09that nervous energy
10:10was
10:10a thumbs up for me
10:11I was like
10:12that means I'm on edge
10:13is that right Izzy
10:13you can use it as a positive force almost
10:15if you've got that anxiety
10:16yeah
10:17it's an interesting one
10:18because
10:18I think if you
10:19if you're Man City
10:20and you've won all three games
10:21so far this season
10:22and you say
10:23off the back of a Premier League title
10:24you go
10:25are you as nervous
10:25as you would be
10:26having lost
10:26the last couple of games
10:28and he is a big presence
10:29you know
10:30his stature says everything
10:31I'm sure his voice
10:32carries a lot of weight
10:33in the dressing room as well
10:34if you look at the role
10:36of the number nine
10:37for City
10:38you know
10:38Micah touched on it earlier
10:39with Aguero
10:39who's a player
10:40that dropped in deep
10:40link play
10:41ran in behind
10:42those little tidy
10:43little runs he made
10:44Harland has to be more patient
10:45and he has to wait
10:46and it's almost like
10:47you don't touch the ball a lot
10:48when he touches the ball
10:49he has to score
10:50and I think that
10:51he probably does feel
10:52a little bit of weight
10:53and pressure
10:53but there's no better way
10:54to relieve
10:55the so-called pressure
10:56than to score
10:57and his role will change
10:58as well
10:58sorry Micah
10:59with the players around him
11:00there's new players
11:00come to the club
11:01you know
11:01trying to settle in
11:03and he's used to people
11:05like De Bruyne
11:05picking them
11:06he's now got to get used to
11:07and he's mentioned that
11:08who's on it
11:08what type of runs he makes
11:09so that means
11:10and I think Liverpool
11:12new players are doing that
11:13as well
11:14and when you're doing that
11:15you're winning football matches
11:16everything seems a lot more
11:17relaxed
11:18and everyone's
11:19you know
11:19you're getting away with it
11:20I suppose
11:20but with City losing
11:21the last few games
11:22all of a sudden
11:22yeah you start looking
11:24the players are going
11:24are you going to adapt
11:25to each other
11:26that's why I think
11:27today's such a big game
11:28for the City players
11:29and people like Haaland
11:31are going
11:31are you all getting used
11:32to each other
11:32because that chemistry
11:33doesn't seem there at the moment
11:34just one more on Haaland
11:36do you think at 25
11:37he's entering peak years
11:39or is there a possibility
11:40that think about
11:41Mike Lowe
11:42that's been an interesting debate
11:43in the last couple of weeks
11:44he may have already had
11:45those peak years
11:46because his strength
11:47is that dynamism
11:49and that pace
11:49yeah but it's also
11:51his movement as well
11:52and I think
11:53he's in a team
11:54in Man City
11:55where they're always
11:55going to create chances
11:56so it's a little bit different
11:57talk about 88 goals
11:59in 100 appearances
12:00in the Premier League
12:00that is just phenomenal
12:01predominantly when teams
12:03are dropping
12:04very deep as well
12:06so it's not
12:06he's got his pace
12:07when he was at Salzburg
12:08when he was at Dortmund
12:09he had that room
12:10to run into
12:11but he's had to modify
12:12his game a little bit
12:14and still doing
12:15ridiculous numbers
12:16last season
12:17I thought he was playing
12:17a little bit within himself
12:19at times
12:20he's still got
12:20a lot of goals
12:22but this season
12:22he looks sharp
12:23he looks energised
12:24he looks ready
12:25I think he could be
12:26the difference today
12:26and at his current rate
12:27he's on course
12:29to break Alan Shearer's
12:30goals for a record
12:30by 2031
12:32we all want that
12:33I'm sure you do
12:35particularly
12:36he is contracted
12:37until 2034
12:39so we'll see
12:41if he is indeed here
12:42by then
12:43or indeed any of us
12:43are here
12:44who knows
12:46before then though
12:48Burnley taking on
12:49Liverpool
12:50and Scott Parker
12:51probably has
12:51nightmares
12:52thinking about
12:53facing
12:542034 was a long time
12:57Mike
12:57that was a long time
12:58Scott Parker
13:03probably has
13:03nightmares
13:04about facing
13:05Liverpool
13:05this was the last
13:06time he did
13:07as Bournemouth boss
13:08and he was sacked
13:08three days later
13:09because they lost
13:10the game
13:109-0
13:12he got words of
13:13comfort from
13:13Jurgen Klopp
13:14and now he is
13:15with Burnley
13:16of course
13:16and with
13:17Juliet Farrington
13:18one of the things
13:21you said in the
13:22build-up to this
13:22match was about
13:23your players
13:24having to be
13:24comfortable with
13:25being uncomfortable
13:26this afternoon
13:27against Liverpool
13:28what did you mean
13:29by that?
13:30well look
13:31we've got a challenge
13:31ahead of us today
13:32and we face
13:33challenges every week
13:34the team we're
13:35going to be this
13:36year coming up
13:36from the
13:37championship
13:37into this league
13:38and we're
13:38playing against
13:39a formidable team
13:40who have proven
13:41that over the
13:42course of a long
13:42period of time
13:43so we need to
13:44be very comfortable
13:45in certain moments
13:46here today
13:46we need to have
13:47a real control
13:48about us
13:48and understand
13:49the dynamics
13:49of what the
13:50game may look
13:50like at certain
13:51times and what
13:52we need to bring
13:52as well
13:53so I think that's
13:54probably the main
13:55message at this
13:56present moment in time
13:56highlighting to the
13:57team that how
13:58things may look
13:59what we need to do
14:00to try and execute
14:01and try and get a
14:02result really
14:03you did so well
14:04against Manchester
14:04United performance
14:05wise to take it
14:06to the level
14:08that you did
14:08albeit through a
14:09late winner
14:10for Manchester
14:11United
14:11with Liverpool
14:12yourself when you
14:13talk about being
14:14uncomfortable
14:15it was uncomfortable
14:16the last time you
14:17faced Liverpool
14:17that 9-0 defeat
14:20how have you
14:20evolved though
14:21and the Premier
14:21League evolved
14:22since then
14:23because I imagine
14:24it's not going to
14:24be the same
14:25situation here
14:25well like always
14:27you know me as a
14:28coach have evolved
14:29and that comes from
14:30learning and I think
14:31I'm a better
14:31version of myself
14:33than what I was
14:34four years ago
14:35I think I'm
14:35probably a better
14:36version of myself
14:36than what I was
14:37two days ago
14:38but yeah the
14:40Premier League's
14:41evolved as well
14:41it's a different
14:42Premier League
14:43and I think you're
14:43seeing that in the
14:44trends of what the
14:44Premier League brings
14:45so it's a tough
14:47league which we all
14:48know and I'm
14:48looking forward to
14:49that I'm excited
14:49about today and we
14:50are as a group
14:51really to try and
14:52execute a plan here
14:53that can try and
14:54give us a platform
14:55and try and get us
14:55a result
14:56oh well good luck
14:57I'll speak to you
14:57later
14:58thank you
14:58would you say is
15:01there are grounds
15:02for optimism so
15:03far for Burnley
15:04I think so
15:05they've had you
15:06know good
15:06performances a good
15:07result obviously
15:08they've got a win
15:09here in the game
15:10they showed that
15:11they can create in
15:11the final third
15:12obviously being a
15:13newly promoted team
15:14just getting that
15:14first win
15:15whoever it's against
15:16exactly it would
15:17have been huge
15:17it's a superb finish
15:18but I think that
15:19then they go to
15:19Old Trafford with
15:20confidence and they
15:21create chances
15:21they got back in
15:22the game
15:22you get your
15:23number nine on the
15:24score sheet there
15:24Lyle Foster
15:25this one here is
15:26where you can make
15:27things happen
15:27set pieces
15:28but I think what
15:29Scott Parker's done
15:30it's not necessarily
15:31fashionable football
15:32but it's pragmatic
15:33football
15:33I thought they were
15:34unlucky here
15:34I know this caused
15:35you know a lot of
15:36decision making
15:37but I think that
15:38they were unlucky
15:39really unlucky
15:40to get a point away
15:41Old Trafford would
15:41have been a good
15:42result but Scott
15:43Parker's done a
15:43superb job
15:44you know like I
15:45said it's not
15:45fashionable it's not
15:46pretty but it's
15:47resilient it's got
15:48grit in their
15:48performances and
15:49they've got a base
15:50to build on
15:50certainly been
15:51resilient and gritty
15:52at home
15:53unbeaten at home
15:54under Scott Parker
15:55the last league game
15:56they lost at
15:57Turf Moor was
15:58May 2024
15:59but they face
16:00an almighty
16:00challenge today

21:26thank you Dave
21:28it's forecast
21:29rain at two
21:30o'clock here
21:30at Burnley
21:31right at the
21:32start of this
21:33match between
21:33Burnley and
21:34Liverpool
21:35Jamie Carragher
21:35who are you
21:36looking forward
21:37though to seeing
21:37from a Liverpool
21:38point of view
21:39after talking about
21:40the team news
21:40with Arna Slott
21:41earlier
21:42well listen a lot
21:43of talk about
21:44he isak but
21:45let's not forget
21:46Florian Wirtz
21:46has come for a
21:47similar sort of
21:48transfer
21:48he's already
21:49been in the team
21:51probably hasn't had
21:52the start he would
21:52have liked but
21:53he's got a great
21:54free kick on
21:55international duty
21:56for Germany
21:57so I'm sure that
21:58will do his
21:58confidence the way
21:59of the good
21:59and when you
21:59think about
22:00attacking players
22:02playing well
22:02and opposition
22:03you're up against
22:03with respect to
22:05Burnley
22:05you're up against
22:06a promoted team
22:07who are going to
22:08find it tough
22:08today you would
22:09imagine at times
22:09so it should be a
22:11game I think
22:11where he shows us
22:12his true self
22:13Dominic Sobberslay
22:14that was a real
22:15talking point
22:16when we got that
22:17team news through
22:18back at right back
22:19where he's been for
22:20the previous two games
22:21and done really well
22:22he's been a revelation
22:23I mean he's always
22:24almost split supporters
22:26really about his role
22:28in the team in
22:28midfield over the
22:29last couple of years
22:30a big signing from
22:31Jürgen Klopp
22:32but there's something
22:34about the fullback
22:35position even though
22:36it's early days that
22:36I think does really
22:37suit him because he
22:38can still go into
22:39midfield we see
22:40fullbacks invert
22:41now he's got so
22:43much running
22:43capabilities he can
22:44run up and down
22:45that line he also
22:46adds a height to
22:48the Liverpool team
22:49Liverpool's fullbacks
22:50aren't the biggest
22:50and I think at times
22:51that puts a little
22:52bit more extra
22:53responsibility on the
22:54two centre backs
22:55when defending set
22:56pieces so you have a
22:57good you know six
22:57foot plus player again
22:59into your back four
23:00he can handle the
23:00ball for me he just
23:02he looks perfectly
23:02suited to that role
23:03but it's just
23:04interesting to see how
23:05the manager will
23:06navigate that because
23:07at the moment he's
23:07got two right backs
23:08on the bench
23:08well that's just it
23:09because when he came
23:10into that position he
23:11was doing a job
23:12wasn't he because
23:13those right backs
23:13weren't available but
23:14now it has actually
23:15given Arnest Lachsam to
23:16think about and the
23:17options that he's got
23:18of course and you
23:19do look at what
23:20Liverpool's first
23:21choice team would be
23:22and it is difficult to
23:24see McAllister not
23:26playing Gravenberg
23:27not playing and
23:27Wirt's not playing
23:28so you think well
23:29how would Sir
23:29Bosley actually get
23:30into that midfield
23:31now I'm of the
23:32opinion that I think
23:33you need to find a
23:34place for him somewhere
23:35because I think his
23:36athletic ability is
23:38vital to this Liverpool
23:38team and it's right
23:40back at the moment
23:40what kind of challenge
23:41then will Burnley
23:42present to Liverpool
23:43you'd think Liverpool
23:44would come here and
23:45take all three points
23:46but we saw what they
23:47did against Manchester
23:48United so what about
23:49that challenge that
23:50Liverpool face bearing
23:51in mind the week that
23:51they've got coming up
23:52as well
23:52what Burnley will have
23:53is huge belief just
23:55about playing at this
23:56stadium Scott Parker
23:57I don't think has
23:57lost a game in this
23:58stadium so those
23:59players believe whoever
24:01they're up against that
24:02they can get obviously
24:03points or get a result
24:04now they know they're
24:05playing against one of
24:05the best teams in
24:06world football right now
24:07the Premier League
24:08champion so it will be
24:09tough but I've watched
24:10all Burnley's games and
24:11every game they've been
24:12in it right till the
24:13last even at the
24:14Tottenham game they just
24:15didn't have a little
24:15bit of quality in the
24:17final third that you
24:17would expect from a
24:18team coming up in the
24:19first game away from
24:20home against one of the
24:21big boys so they have
24:22to improve on that if
24:23they're going to get
24:23something today and
24:24Liverpool themselves
24:25though looking for that
24:26performance aren't they
24:27they're looking for that
24:28convincing performance
24:29that takes time takes
24:31rhythm when you've got
24:32new players coming in
24:33because this is very
24:33much now an on a slot
24:34team isn't it yeah I
24:36mean a convincing
24:37performance is Liverpool
24:39looking strong defensively
24:40and scoring a few goals I
24:42think I thought it was a
24:44convincing performance
24:44against Arsenal actually
24:45even though it wasn't a
24:46great game with lots of
24:47goals you're never going to
24:48score lots of goals
24:48against Arsenal I mean
24:49defensively one of the
24:51best teams in the way but
24:52I think as a Liverpool
24:53supporter watching that
24:54game that did give me a
24:55lot more confidence that
24:56Liverpool look tight
24:57secure powerful and can
25:00rely on a little bit of
25:00magic
25:01Jamie good stuff Dave back
25:03to you just before we go
25:04back though Jamie that's
25:05where you're going right
25:06up there yes through the
25:07fans
25:07Jamie good stuff Dave back
25:11to you thank you Jamie
25:13will love that mixing with
25:14the fans he is a man of
25:15the people after all
25:16Burnley's strength really
25:18was was based on their
25:19defence we've we've
25:20touched on that already
25:21but conceding just 16
25:22goals through an entire
25:24season 30 clean sheets as
25:26well but that spine is
25:27sort of disappearing with
25:28James Trafford gone CJ
25:30Egan Riley Josh Brownhill
25:31even moving on so with
25:33that in mind just how
25:35important is this young man
25:37become Maxime Stev
25:38yeah he was brilliant
25:39last season in the
25:40championship I mean he's
25:41good good on the ball
25:42left footed can can drive
25:45into spaces but he's
25:46he's outstanding in the
25:47air and when Burnley
25:48playing that low block
25:50he he clears absolutely
25:52everything I just think
25:53he's he's come on so
25:55much because the one
25:56question mark could he do
25:57it in the Premier League
25:57and this season at times
25:59he showed that he can be a
26:01very good player and he
26:02can get him better so if
26:04he has a good game tonight
26:05they've got a chance but
26:06there is largely Premier
26:07League inexperience in
26:08that squad Roy so what
26:10what's the value of
26:10bringing in someone like
26:11Kyle Walker well huge
26:12just how you handle
26:13yourself on the training
26:14ground when they do have
26:15setbacks how you deal
26:16with it obviously Kyle's
26:17been used to obviously
26:18compete in terms of
26:19winning titles but you
26:21bring that personality of
26:22of hopefully been a
26:23decent profession how you
26:24look after yourself
26:25there's some other good
26:25lads there and people
26:26like Josh Cullen can look
26:28at him and say well is
26:28this how you behave of
26:30being a top profession we
26:31see him here even a little
26:32warm up there he's
26:32aggressive he's trying to
26:33do all the right stuff and
26:35you need that in your
26:35squads these stats about
26:37what they've done the
26:38championship it was
26:38fantastic but we know the
26:40challenges in the in the
26:41Premier League it's like
26:42chalk and cheese completely
26:43different and that's why
26:44you need that experience
26:45in or on the restroom and
26:46on the bus and just
26:47especially if they have
26:48setbacks how you deal with
26:49the disappointments and
26:50they certainly had that
26:51last time out didn't they
26:52that disappointment of
26:53losing in the final seconds
26:54of added time at Old
26:56Trafford but they're
26:56looking for their first win
26:57over Liverpool since
26:58August 2016 what a strike
27:00that was from Sam
27:01Vokes Sean Dyche was the
27:03man in charge then I
27:04think they had three shots
27:04in the entire game two of
27:06them hit the back of the
27:07net that was Sam Vokes
27:08and there's Andre Gray as
27:10well to make it 2-0 can
27:11they repeat that this
27:13afternoon
27:13Sponsored by Bet365
27:25Now for something a little
27:27different
27:28You told your wife you
27:41don't do dancing
27:42Those hips
27:43Here's a new mickey to
27:46radio
27:46We know you like to move
