    With full roster health, Liverpool fielded what would have been their B/C team today and still beat Everton.

    18-year-old Curtis Jones with the winner.

    Watford out of relegation zone for the first time all season. 13 points in the last five matches after getting nine points in their first 17. Perfect combination of Nigel Pearson's coaching and Troy Deeney getting back to optimal fitness. Only six points out of 11th now. Big one against Spurs at Vicarage Road early next Saturday.

    They're probably favorites. Hard to imagine that back in September.

    Proper result today. Deeney probably should have made that penalty, and the Spurs' shot was millimeters from going in before Pusetto rescued it. Nice way to endear yourself to your new club, saving a point by a nose hair.

    Spurs have yet to score a league goal since Kane's injury.

    Two more dropped points for City, thanks to a 90th-minute own goal.

    If United lose by less than 3 today, it’s a good result.

    Well that Watford game was a kick in the balls. Cripes. Looks like the 15-19 battle is going to be insane for the rest of the season.

    Jesus. Everton blew a 2-0 lead with 94th and 95th minute Newcastle goals.

    I suppose that's worse than giving up a goal at the death when desperately trying to protect a point.

    Burnley win at Old Trafford for the first time since 1962. OGS has lost more PL games than he's won since being given the permanent job.
