Great second half. Some very good performances today. Silva was brilliant, Toure controlled the middle, De Bruyne was back to what he should be doing more often. His best game for months and Ottamendi was great when needed.
Not sure Fernandinho at right back works. Very uncertain first half from him.
Think it worked in the first part of the game, when Palace were playing three at the back, as he then had the opportunity to invert, but once they reverted to a 4-4-2, then he was pinned back more and defensively exposed on a number of occasions by Zaha.
