great controlled performance.
Shame we couldnt keep it tight at the end as GD could make a difference and anything to add that little more pressure.
Utd will roll over for Liverpool - despite what their fans say they are desperate not to see us win a title....though it makes little difference as if Liverpool play any where near their potential they could score 10 past them they are that shit.
Hoping Brighton give Arsenal a hard game and a positive result for us is more likely in that game....
KDB interestingly dropping deeper than usual in todays game I think worked better than playing further up top and closer to Haaland - it gave him more time. - two fantastic finishes
Think there is a strong argument for Akanji being player of the month at present....very very solid and good on the ball...If walker is fit for Madrid Id like to see Akanji start at left back ahead of Gvardiol
Rico lewis with a very very mature performance and deserved his goal....
Haalands work rate has notably increased off the ball this season and it was evident today....deserved his goal

Even the 6-1 had me waiting for the whistle.4-2 and it still didn’t feel comfortable!

Why ? He's the best pure defender at the club.Odd how bringing Akanji on completely shifted the level of security.

You think Rodri and Alvarez playing a further 15 minutes today would have a bearing on the RM game?weve got small game on tuesday
If so, then surely KDB should have been subbed earlier
Indifferent first half, but great second half and in complete control until their 2nd goal. Dias wrong side again.
Jack Grealish magnificent game again, hand in all four goals. Kev with two blasters and one from Erling. Concerned at the ease of the 2 we conceded though. To be honest, a 2 goal win at Palace, can’t be sniffed at.

The game changed when Akanji came on for Gvardiol, freeing up Grealish to be properly effective. Gvardiol hadn't helped Jack at all unfortunately.
Grealish was essential to all four goals: crosses/assists for two and the pre-assists for the other two.
Rico in his post-match interview said Gvardiol came off because he was feeling a niggle. If that's true, that would be very disappointing because that sub should have been Pep's choice, not the big improvement more by luck than judgement.
