Job done. First half was scrappy and unspectacular, but with the two early goals in the second half it was over as a contest as Palace didn't offer any real threat (no shots on target the whole game). Great to see Osvaldo get his first (of many, I hope) for us and a wonderful free kick from SRL. Defence looked much better second half after a couple of panicky moments in the first. I'm still a little worried about Wanyama's passing though. He can't seem to ever find a team-mate when he isn't under any pressure. A solid performance from him otherwise. MOTM for me goes to Lovren again. He has brought so much confidence to our defence it's like we are a completely different team with him at the back.

1990 I believe, although we lost 2-1.

what the goddam living f**K was that from Wanyama!?

Palace's best move of the game so far - Jerome blazes over the bar.

Ossie nearly puts J-rod in. Good move

Gaston on for Lallana

Aaaah, bugger. J-rod offside - doesn't count. Good decision as well.

I'm getting a nosebleed!

If it finishes like this we will be on 11 points and City only on 10.

Oh dear, terrible pass from Wanyama there under no pressure.

J-Rod coming on for SRL.

York 4-1 Pompey

Philips coming on - gets booed. Sad really.

Oh poo. I hope Schneiderlin isn't badly injured.

That's a shocking tackle and well worthy of a yellow.

JWP coming on

No doubt he will be bemoaning the 'stonewall' penalty they should have had when Chamakh did his birdman impression in the first half.

Double change for Palace.

Now Davis goes close but over the bar. What a different performance this is from the 1st half now.

Lambert close to making it 3-0 - Speroni was beaten.

Waheeeeey! Fooooking awesome!!!!!!!

Hahahah - yeah Alps, Osvaldo is sh*t is he!? Hahahahahahahahaha

How is that not a free kick for climbing all over Lambert!?

Can you give me tonight's lottery numbers please?

The play-acting from Palace today is shocking.
