Danny MOTM for me - but Fraser and Armstrong are close behind.
Danny’s goals edge out yet another massive effort by Armstrong, and a solid effort from Fraser.

I know many of you don’t rate Minamino, and neither do I, but second half he worked really hard. Just too lightweight though. Needs some of JWP’s special medicine.

Everyone else was just great though, apart from that one piece of slackness from Jack (or jackness from Slack, if you prefer).
 
Very good win. Palace are always awkward to play against. Danny Ings was absolute class again.

I have decided that I'm going to call that defensive technique of letting the ball go under your foot on the edge of the penalty area to let the opposition forward in on goal as doing a "Vestegaard".

You have a Cruyff Turn, Penanka and now a Vestegaard. Jack Stephens did a classic Vestegaard in the 2nd half.

Ahhhh...

Turns out we pay Liverpool less, the more Mini Metro plays. Which will explain why he was playing tonight, whilst also making the sound of our financial footing rather terrifying.

You had 3 goes and still spelt it wrong!

It does.

It also reminds me of the deal Cortese struck with Arsenal over Oxo. Subbed anywhere between 55 and 59 minutes!

I agree, really hoped he could produce something in the second half that would stand out, but needs to be much more physical in order to keep the ball and not be bossed off it. I thought KWP produced another very good performance.
