Bossed it.With style.Confidence back.
Who knows?

[olaftab]

Never in doubt.

Left it late but let’s hope we take it to the last day. But a win is a win

[Risso]

A very good, professional performance. Should have had more goals tbh.

[Chris Harte]

Three points and a clean sheet. We'll lose at Everton.

[Toronto Villa]

Small step forward. Simply have to follow up now. We go down, we do so fighting to the end.

Annoyingly decent - just a game or two too late....

[SoccerHQ]

Yay.

Our best perforance at VP since Newcastle game. Amazing what going a couple of goals up can do for a young, inexperienced team. We looked like a good side once we were 2 up and saw things out well which we're certainly not good at.

Have to win at Everton now who are on the beach like Palace. Maybe just maybe....

Did Benteke get sent off after the final whistle?

Best performance for ages.  Energy, purpose, quality, (some) good finishing, lots of chances.  3 points and an improved goal difference.  Fantastic.

Palace are shit.  Apparently Benteke was sent off after the whistle.

No need for any negativity today. Very good performance against a poor palace. For the hologram criticism, hourihane showed grit and determination as well as good dead ball delivery, man of the match for me, closely followed by Elmo. Dogs of war that’s what we need.

[olaftab]

Never in doubt.

However I spent the last two hours pretending to do work that didn't need doing.


However we always beat Palace. One of few wins in 15/16 was 1-0 at Villa Park.

The end has been postponed.
