Virgil to get some more minutes under his belt? Match being streamed live.

MotD (Phil Neville) drooling over Lemina's performance.... with the obligatory: "the big clubs will probably be looking at him already" comment....

Agree

I tend to post more when we're winning / have won, whereas some people do the reverse. Each to their own I guess...

Maybe you should go away (or play golf) more often when we play. We often seem to do well when you don't make an appearance on the match thread. Or maybe that's just a coincidence...

This

At long last we now have a 'schneiderlin/wanyama'-esque duo in midfield. Great foundation for the rest of the season, with VvD sticking around being the icing on the cake. We've arguably got the best back 6 group (outfield players) in the league right now. And, yes, I know I'm getting ahead of myself...

Full time. Phew

5 mins added time. WTF?

Some boos for VvD.... #facepalm

JWP on for Redmond

Ref suddenly got sh1te

Clear the ball FFS

What the **** was Romeu up to there?

I'm falling in love with Lemina

Phew. Good to see you sir. Was starting to get worried there for a moment.

Is it me or is there a certain group of posters absent from this thread so far today...?

Soft goal from a Palace perspective but I'm not caring about that right now
