What a win, what a performance, no injuries and no yellow for big Joe. Fucking get in.

 

Hopefully no injuries. Couple of knocks there but nothing obvious at the moment.

Just so good to watch. Another Tonali masterclass in the middle. Tactics were spot on from Howe (Tindall?). Made the pitch really wide, wingers and fullbacks had all kinds of joy. Murphy has evolved like a Pokemon into his upgraded form. We could have had 8 or 9 easily. And we can yet improve. Have to pinch myself sometimes to believe what I'm watching.

Once again up against one of the form sides in the league , manager in hospital, pressure game and we steam roller it with not a single negative in regards injuries or cards. What a team and what a club. I've a feeling Tindall's going to enjoy Saturday. Howay The Fucking Lads. Man Reaction GIF by Ford

What a solid evening of Barclays that was, everyone was quality to a man. Murphy though man, he was genuinely elite in that half, just one top quality cross after another, so good. Tonali is another level his reading of the game may be better than any player i've seem for us, and he complements the guile of Bruno and the battering ram of Joelinton so well. It wasn't Isak best game, but I love his fume and mindset when he misses chances. 

 

As for Palace, they where the first team we've played this season that where on the beach/ minds on the semi final. Though I have to say, as soon a Wharton came on they looked 1000x better, even if he through his weight around a bit.

Can't wait to upgrade our backup players.

Have to stop giving Wilson and Longstaff minutes.

 

We can't be using the likes of Wilson and Longstaff next season for any games if we are to progress.

 

Was painful watching them once they came on.

 

Really need to fill out the squad with more capable performers off the bench.

 

Hope we manage that this summer.

???????????????????

 

Didn't feel at all like this.

 

Murphy goal must've been like 0.01

Isak goal must've been 0.01 too

Barnes goal would've been low as well as he shot from wide on his weaker foot 

Erm, dunno how OGs are calculated in this

Schar's from the middle of the goal must've been 0.2ish? 

 

So yeah, I can see the low XG for us.

 

Palace got a massive bump from the penalty. 0.75 alone for that. Dunno where the rest of their 2.22 came from. Didn't feel like they had any threating chances?

sticking +8 on our goal difference in the last two games is massive

 

Fantastic. And we have chance to push Chelsea's down further. I have a feeling we will not lose at all, and may win the lot. The belief, heroics of a trophy and huge run of form and lack injuries is all coming together well. I'd love it if we caught Arsenal for 2nd and best them a 4th time. What a season this might be yet. Tonight was a potential banana skin, and we smashed it.

I mean I don't live and die or even pay close attention to xG but that is exactly right. I think it should have been higher for us but understand.
