Yeah there wasn't much luck involved. We schooled them both.

Barnes, Murphy and Tonali were getting most of the plaudits yesterday, but Joelinton was outstanding, and arguably MOTM. Not just winning the ball, but skating through challenges to set moves up on quite a few occasions. He doesn't get enough credit for his great close control under pressure, and when he comes through those challenges, he quite often pings in a killer pass to top it off.

He does seem to be involved in a lot of goals conceded this season, or maybe it's just the games I've seen. But that's my take away from it as well. He's usually trying to do last ditch tackles when they fly in, and that does suggest he's a natural defender.

The other side of that is, if we have in inverted winger like most teams do, then Tino would come into play a lot more next season as an overlapping full back. Murphy would be the out and out right wing option.

Winning silverware is the final piece. Anyone involved in the final, including players who have been rubbished previously now think of themselves as winners. Keegan always said that first trophy would have made all the difference to his teams. You can see the belief in all the players now, they trust each other as well, which is massive.

Bruno only about a week late with that challenge.

Aye you can say what you like about his game, but what he does, he does very well indeed. He's been putting in pearler crosses all season without any argument.

There's no way you can tell whether he touches it or not. In the end they gave the pen for a reckless challenge to get away from having to justify it so that explanation is shite anyway.

How does Gordon get back in ahead of this lad? Genuine question.

Don't want too many subs early, it will kill the momentum. We can score 7 here.

I thought his goal got a deflection, but even so he has put some deadly deliveries in tonight. Isak should have had at least one goal from one of them.

Stop us if you can cunts.

That is a fantastic free kick.

Palace are lucky they aren't losing 5-0 tbh.

He's had a dry spell by his standards tbf.

That's how to finish!!

Bruno caught on the ball again.

Isak ffs, should have had 3 by now.

Fuck off VAR and fuck off Alan tall twat Smith as well.

HAHAHAHAH!!!

Absolute fucking bollocks.

VAR are blind as well apparently.

I swear these commentators are fucking blind.

We have put together a few really good moves without quite getting the finishing touch. Playing well here.
