When will he score again?

Wayne Rooney has not scored in any of his last nine games for Manchester United, and last found the net for his club against Aston Villa on 4 April.

Manager reaction

Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal: "We can be satisfied with the performance but not with the result - we were unlucky.

"We did not make the right choices in the final third but we played fantastic as a team. I like these kind of games when we work like this, but not this result.

"The performance was one of the best in my period but we don't reward ourselves and there was only one club that wanted to win and that was us."

Manager reaction

Newcastle United manager Steve McClaren:  "We're disappointed. We knew the first 20 minutes would be theirs but we grew in belief and we should have scored.

"The defending and discipline was superb but we really could have nicked it - we had the chances but didn't take them.

"We're far from where we want to be and there a lot of areas we need to improve on but we'll get better as the weeks go on."

United's crosses mostly off target

Manchester United made full use of the wings against Newcastle but their final ball frequently let them down. Louis van Gaal's side made 28 crosses in open play but only five of them found a United player. The worst offender was Memphis Depay, who made nine crosses, but only one of them was successful.

Hassan Khan: Need a new number nine without a doubt. Hernandez is a benchwarmer and Wilson needs a loan spell. We need a striker who can score 20 goals every season.

Matt Walton: I'm losing faith in Van Gaal. United have a lot of midfield players one striker and to be fair so far not a bad defence. But one attacking option is not enough and I don't think Rooney is good enough any more.

Ben Lucas: Fantastic defensive performance from Newcastle, looked a completely different team than last season.

Manager reaction

Norwich City's Alex Neil:  "It's disappointing not to win. We had all the chances in the game but I can't complain with how we played.

"We were great and Jack Butland made some fantastic saves. There is no question that we deserve to be at this level."

Manager reaction

Stoke boss Mark Hughes:  "I am happy. We had a decent amount of play in the first half but didn't create a great deal today, the conditions took the edge off our game.

"In the end we are grateful for a number of saves from Jack Butland who was outstanding today. At the moment Jack has a broken finger as well so that shows the strength of character he has.

"Xherdan Shaqiri will get better the longer he is with us but you can see that he will be a key player for us. He hasn't played much but the 90 minutes today will do him the world of good."

Andy Stone: Saw nothing to change my opinion that Norwich will go straight back down. We were woeful in the second half and they couldn't put us away. Shows how lightweight they are.

Adam Bloor: Stoke were far to open and need to tighten up away from home, fair play to Norwich they exploited the space and would have won comfortably if it wasn't for Butland.

Russ Meek: We were poor today Didn't turn up but we got a point thanks to Butland.

Tottenham head coach Mauricio Pochettino:  "It was 50/50, a very difficult game for both teams. Second half we played much better.

"I am disappointed with the draw. Last game against Stoke we lost a 2-0 lead and we did it again. We deserved more again but it is a shame.

"I am angry and disappointed, not frustrated. The mistake we made today is difficult to explain."

Mahrez was Foxes' biggest threat

The game opened up in the second half and Leicester attacked mainly down the right. Just as he did with his goal, Riyad Mahrez often looked to come inside when he got on the ball and his movement unsettled the Spurs defence.

Leicester boss Claudio Ranieri: "Tottenham kept possession of the ball but we created the same chances and 1-1 is the right result.

"I am happy, My players have a fantastic spirit. It was an outstanding goal and Riyad Mahrez is a very good player.

"It is important to maintain our place in the Premier League. Seven points, 33 less, that is important for us."

Mahrez is Leicester's main man

Mahrez goal

Leicester scored straight from the restart after going 1-0 down to Tottenham, with a move that was typical of their best attacks against Spurs.

Riyad Mahrez cut in from the right before letting fly with an unstoppable shot into the opposite corner.

Wesley Allin: Here we go again, same old Spurs conceding very late goals.

Andrew Webb: Unbeaten and top - will take that. This could be the weekend when all four teams that had 100% win records actually see them disappear - Man United, Man City, Leicester and Liverpool. Two down, two to go.

Kevin Lcfc Parry: Leicester had a stone wall penalty turned down. Spurs were very dirty on Mahrez and Vardy. 

Allardyce to Sunderland?

Sam Allardyce has dismissed speculation linking him with the Sunderland manager's job. The former West Ham boss, speaking on Match of the Day, says: "It's not true, look at how relaxed I am. There's no truth in it."

Ross Lowrie: Much better performance today from Sunderland. Seemed more organised than the previous two games. A few glimmers of hope from certain players as well, hopefully the rest of season is much better than the opening two games.

Ross Elliot Cowell: Awful result for Swansea, two points dropped against a pub team. Oh dear.

Michael Hopley: The way Sunderland are playing so far this season, I wouldn't be surprised to see them relegated come May.

Yet another goal from a set piece

BBC

Alan Pardew became Palace manager at the start of January, and no Premier League side has scored more goals from set pieces since then.

'They made a really good call'

There were no complaints from Crystal Palace manager Alan Pardew as his side were denied a goal after James McArthur had diverted Dwight Gayle's shot into the net.

But it did not prove costly as Palace won the game 2-1.

'What's the West Ham way?'

Former West Ham boss Sam Allardyce has been talking on Match of the Day about criticism he received while at his former club. He said: "At times you do feel that the criticism is a little harsh when you take them from where we started to where we ended.

"But there was also a big expectation on what we had achieved and what else we could achieve. I always felt the criticism came from a small minority who made a lot of noise verbally or on social media. I did not feel that the criticism was from the majority of fans."

Asked if he was not popular because he didn't get the club playing in 'the West Ham way', Allardyce responded: "I still don't know what the West Ham way is. To play attractive football and winning? But winning is the first priority and we did a lot of that last season."

Greg Pattinson: We should be beating teams like Palace. Sherwood needs to sell Agbonlahor to Walsall and buy a top quality forward. We should've won that game by three or four goals.

Stephen Garner: Palace are always a respectable team. Glad Pardew is enjoying coaching again and is at a club that has owners that respect him.

Michael Wilkins From a Villa fan, I like how Palace look, a very strong side. The game sounded even and then Villa wrapped the three points up in a bow and gave them to Palace at the end.

West Ham boss Slaven Bilic:  "It went wrong from the start. We played a very bad first half. It is very hard to explain three of their four goals - you can't make errors like that at this level. They were more lively and more aggressive but you can't make those mistakes.

"It's not an alarming situation but we can't continue to play without more desire. We simply need a better mentality."

Rommel Sarmiento: Could have been 4-4 right in the very end. Terrible season for Cresswell and Jenkinson so far.

Manager reaction

Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe:  "It was a really strange game. We were in cruise control in the first half but that seemed to go out of the window after half-time when we made some strange decisions.

"The only disappointment at half-time was that we were not more than 2-0 up.

"We have been really heartened by the two previous games but when you don't win then naturally the players will question whether we are doing the right things."
