Same thing on the YouTube highlights, loads of attacks for us and then "the fans won't be happy" on the commentary There's a bit of truth to both I suppose.

The finish is ludicrously good like. He doesn't stick out a leg and just guide the ball, he perfectly like plucks it out of the air with a crisp hit into the corner. Crazy finish.

I think probably Martinez and De Ligt are the only ones I'd be excited by.

But you don’t think missing our best pressing defenders is a factor?

This is kind of what I assumed, nice to hear. Like I always said, the Guehi saga was almost as bad for Palace as for us. The idea that it was some kind of win for them is silly - they wanted to sell him and failed.

Don’t think he was far behind mind.

It’s clearly a pen, ridiculous not to check it.

Odobert was shocking throughout, got bullied.

Didn’t realise it was a foul on Isak by Dragosin on that break. Should be a pen shouldn’t it, if he slides into Isak’s standing leg first?

Welcome to Murphyworld.

Have we forgotten what Eddie Howe has done since he got here or something? Man Utd under Ten Haag FFS, get real man.

Unfortunately he’s finito. Should’ve looked for a Saudi move this summer.

Hopefully scoring will settle him a bit, saw a lot of complaining in the first half. I know all strikers want the ball every time like.

Watch it and settle the debate

We were the better team in the first half, particularly the first part. We deserved to be ahead at half time. After half time we were average, but still the goal seemed a ridiculous set of events (haven’t seen a replay). After the goal we went to pieces, but IMO what Spurs did was mainly to do with our mistakes and shaky confidence. Either team could have won but they introduced people like Werner who are never going to score, and one of our breaks was a good one. Putting Werner up against Tino and Murphy is borderline kamikaze. Weird game and hard to assess but I don’t think the win was lucky.

Don’t know why commentators haven’t adjusted to the world of VAR. Scoreline apps haven’t either. A goal isn’t a goal any more, it’s a potential goal pending a check.

People saying Spurs were better coached, no way in the world. Started with the wrong lineup (no Johnson and Odobert who is useless), made bad subs (Werner) and got exposed on the counter to lose.

Massive exaggeration.

Same feelings, was very happy with the first half. We just still have a bit of fragility and lack of ability to keep the ball, which nearly got exposed.

Broken record but we signed him because we needed more goals in the forward line, and that’s what we’re going to get.

I’d just finished saying how bad the sub was when he raced through and created the winner

As a confirmed hater, I thought he had quite a good game at times. Will always have those horrific moments where he does things that no other PL midfielder can do, but did some good things as well.

Think we just about deserved to win that. Had a really terrible spell after their goal (which in itself seemed soft) but IMO it was the fragile confidence that emerged and not because Spurs were better. Always thought we could get a second, although obviously they could too. Massive win in the end, great start to the season points-wise.

It’s a cautious team but it’s not surprising. Just hope we don’t come under too much pressure, I don’t think their front line is the most athletic for the press.

Van der Ven their biggest defence against quick attackers, so that would be great. Pedro Porro is a worry, coming into that space between the left midfielder and the defence, but I guess Joelinton will be detailed to help out as much as he can. Let's batter these!
