Agree for the most part, however they didn’t strike me as working together well. Some poor decision making and finishing. Think that’s the worst I’ve seen Richarlison play

Giving MotM to Jordan Pickfords' big toe. Obviously that save kept us in the game and set us up to take all three points. It could have ended up all so different for us today.

Welcome back Wayne
It was a great save, deliberate and well executed.......after having gone the wrong way......

Went for Gana, he’s like an angry wasp, would hate playing against him... hope Silva and Brands took Palace’s right back name down as one to keep an eye on, he had a cracking game...

Our next 4 game Away, United,Chelsea,Liverpool and City. Oh god!
At least, our next four home games are more easier
At least, our next four home games are more easier
That is correct... just like I said in the Jordan Pickford thread.

Did we lose lad? which game were you watching?.....enjoy the win FFS or do one over the park...
Pickford - 9 - Did everything required of him and more with that save. His distribution was top notch as well.
Coleman - 6 - Unlucky for the pen, he just got done with a clumsy trailing leg. Overall defended well and actually looked more like his old self going forward.
Keane - 8 - Superb. He's really growing in confidence and looks a leader at the back. Still some way to go but no complaints today.
Zouma - 6 - Thought he was actually a bit clumsy and leggy at times. A few rash decisions to dive in and the odd sloppy pass. Still decent but can do better.
Digne - 7 - He oozes quality when he's on the ball. Didn't get much chance to cross in today (due to Wan-Bissaka who is excellent), but kept that side quiet.
Gueye - 6 - His passing was a bit off in the first half and I don't think he had his best game defensively either. Probably not fully fit. Still a vital cog, though.
Gomes - 7 - Grew into the game and he's very neat and tidy in possession, hopefully will be more adventurous when fully fit. Promising.
Walcott - 5 - Thought he probably had his quietest game for us in a while, but think that was as much to do with Palace's deep line as anything else.
Sigurdsson - 6 - Unlucky not to score. Played well when we got the ball into him on the edge of the box. Decent.
Bernard - 6 - A bit like Walcott, just didn't have much space. Showed some nice touches and bits of skill though, especially when he drifted centrally.
Richarlison - 6 - Feeding off scraps and had to do a lot of battling. Probably not suited to playing central against a deep line.
Lookman - 7 - Finally, he's getting into gear. The game really suited him - it needed someone with pace to drive with the ball. Great cross for DCL.
Calvert-Lewin - 7 - His pace came to good use because they were pushing up. Right place, right time and a good header for the goal.
Tosun - 7 - Linked the play well and took his goal brilliantly. He's a good striker who will work hard. He just won't suit every game.
Silva - 8 - In hindsight, perhaps the wrong starting XI, but it would have been weird to change that front four really. Won it with his subs.

The issue is they were miles apart. There was literally one point where there was at least 15 yards between all of our midfielders and attackers. We were attacking in spurts rather than moving up through the pitch, which is what we did in the second half to better effect.

Went with Keane for being solid again, could just as easily have been Pickers though.
Three on the bounce, another clean sheet and the Silva revolution continues he deserves his own MoM for those inspired substitutions.
Thought Theo just wasn't at the races today.
