Was that United's first shot on target?
Now Harrison plays a one-two with Stu Dallas before striking on goal. Dawson denies him again.
First I can remember
Two Toon players have gone off injured. Only one substitution remaining for Brucey
That tackle from Burnley....he pulled out of it
This sport is being ruined.... I would prefer injustices...they all even out

What on earth was Nick Pope doing there. I can't believe he's in the England set-up. Oh dear.
Rich Arlison gives the Toffees the lead vs the Seagulls
Talk of United buying Bruno Fernandes from Sporting
14 games...13 goal involvements
Lingard and Pereira
78 games...13 goal involvements
Why don't they buy him now!
Matt said... maybe they are waiting until after the Norwich match... if they lose... OGS could be gone and Poch didn't want him at Spurs
A poor goal for Burnley to concede . Hard to see them coming back
Shrews on top vs Abe Lincoln
OGS: Olly Going Soon.
Nick Pope with a kick save from Reese James. Chelsea could have gone three up.
Norwich haven't gained a point from a losing position
Just read that update, Dave. That would be a good signing for United.
I feel bad for Ole - he seems like such a nice boy.
That's a good statistic for United. They need to make sure the streak continues.
I am really hating the Premier League modern version
Everyone plays the same way
Everyone has to pass the ball around for no reason
I think people say they like it just to be hip
Ings hit the crossbar!
I don't know Bruno Fernandes.
From the following corner...they crack the crossbar again!
Saints nearly take the lead at the KP. Danny Ings with a shot off the bar
I thought you invited him to a birthday dinner !
De Gea makes a great save from a Norwich break
Ipswich 3 up
Tractor Boys three up vs Who? Alan Judge to score that goal
so weird to watch matches at OT now... I know what it all looks like!
No - I'm having Patrick Bamford over for cake - after he notches a hat-trick for us today.
An LOB blogging trio of stoppage time minutes
Coming up to half time at OT... United leading but still not good enough
Norwich looking more dangerous than United
Has your trip changed your perspective on Old Trafford, mate?
Rochdale on top vs Bolton
One last corner chance for the Whites. Saved by Dawson.
HT at OT
NOT BLOODY GOOD ENOUGH
Chris K just as Happy about proceedings at the Valley as Bob
One minute of stoppage time to come.
Brentford have narrowed the gap between us to seven points now - that's what we should concentrate on. Fulham are eight points behind us.
It's 0-0 at the half at ER. Top two tied at the half in the Championship.
Everyone during the week were blasting Everton for not beating Liverpool reserves in the Cup
They were saying they were pathetic... I agree they were in the second half but in the first they were the better team
Douglas provides a neat pull-back for Helder but he blazes over. And that should do it for the first half.
Chelsea two up at the half and well in control.
What are your thoughts about Harry Kane being out until April? How will that affect England's hopes this summer?
United have got us going again... can they play any better?
We're back underway in the second half at Elland Road. Come on, you Whites!
At least he would be rested!
Come on .... we need a birthday goal for our birthday boy
Penalty to United
Williams brought down by Krul.... of Cours VAR will check
Who knows if it will be given
It is a penalty
Come on Marcus..... TWO NIL
Phew! The visitors are inches away from notching a goal early on in the second half.
Chelsea three up
You lot are coasting now. I'd love for my United to be 2-0 up.
NowI want United to score four
That was my biggest disappointment at OT... fell behind, scored three quick goals, scored again early in the second half.... then just started playing the modern way for the last 15 minutes... very annoying
Two corners in succession for the Owls now. Knock it off!
THREE NIL!!!
Martial with the header!
Now Untied need to want to score more!
Another big chance for Not a Big Club. Somehow we clear it out. Let's get the momentum back now.
You lot are putting Norwich to the sword now.
Not really Bob
First change for us - Alioski comes on for Douglas. Good positive move.
OH....what a miss by Williams!!!
Hit it over from two feet
That is better by United
Miss of the season!!
Okay...he was 4 yards away!
Header cuts inside and rifles one from 25 yards out - just can't find the target, but that's better.
Rash coming off... with a chance for hat-trick
Is he hurt?
He came off for my match and went straight down the tunnel but wasn't hurt
Don't think I have watched more than ten minutes of the match at the Bridge
Back for the second half after talking with my father-in-law. Dave will probably want me to stay away with United doing so well.
United and Chelsea are tied on GD....United need to WANT to score more
Bugger off David!!
just kidding
With United scoring twice in my absence , I possibly should be absent longer?
Baggies leading
COME ON LEEDS
Not very sporting, UWS.
Wonder why Rash went off
Klich tries a curling effort but it's saved by Dawson.
LOL! I might need to do that. I did see the third Chelsea goal that looked offside
Cambridge fall behind at Exeter who are flying high in second
Exeter on top vs Cambridge
Penalty to Saints at the KP. VAR checking for offside
