I had to nip out to pick up one of the kids an the scoreline was 1-0. Get back and it is 1-3 . Lovely.
You do realise you have to go out and pick them up during every match from now on...

As the Liverpool match was on BT Sport I think our match could be the main match on Sky this evening
I thought that, overall, we were very good again today. What a goal from Alli, that was world class. And to e fair, he didn't have a great game up until then, but who cares when you can do that?!
And phuck Palace, seriously. They were time wasting at 0-0 from about 8 minutes, every throw-in taking forever etc. All out defence, near enough, for large parts of the game. A sh1tty team, typical Pardew.
Super sub Chadli
Cabaye is a very skilled but nasty player. He's prone to spiky fouls and wind ups/Stamping? just saw the knee into Cabaye's shoulder, didn't think much of it tbh, thought Cabaye's petulant finger pointing was rather silly also.
Correct and we did out timewasting at the end, taking the ball into the corner flag eating up that 5mins of stoppage time. Something we are getting better at. There's a time and a place for a bit of time wasting and its not in the first 20mins. Take note Sam/Alan.
This may be a touch pedantic but what we did was run down the clock. Palace were time wasting, like at the end of the first half when they had a player take 15-20 seconds to shape up to take a throw in and then give the ball to ANOTHER player to take a throw in.
Just finished watching the match. What a goal. I'm still buzzing.You do realise you have to go out and pick them up during every match from now on...
Dier came off and we went BERZERKER with Dembele and Alli supporting Chadli/Eriksen/Son and Kane... full steam ahead... scored... of course Palace came a bit more into it, they lost the lead they were hanging onto and we were going BER-ZER-KERRRR. It was lovely to see us do that after 55 minutes rather than 85 mins.Out of curiously for those that watched the game... Someone I know Said that palace only came into the game once Dier went off.
Thoughts?

Spot on. At HT I said Pochettino may need to make a change if we dont get the early goal 65mins not 85mins. Well he did and it was the match-changing sub. Great to see him not leave too late.
Loved his little encouragement interchange with Wimmer just before he went on too. Dont expect him to have the same partnership as Vertonghen does with Alderweireld, its only natural, but the guy likes an ample replacement so far
Home at last.
After another memorable away day. We really are going places, and all of us in the away end today bloody well know it.
The atmosphere in the pubs, the streets and inside the ground is fantastic. Plenty of man hugging going on with complete strangers (yid family) as the goals fly in. It was total carnage at times.
Even at half-time it niggled that we were a goal down BUT i believed (as many others did) that it wouldn't end like this, somehow we will overcome this. (and oh how we did!)The boys certainly are full of belief,spirit and fight. A proper team.
Performance wise we are very consistent. (even when we lose) We really do dominate possession and control large amounts of the game. We do need to work on our final third pattern of play, just so we start creating more standard type openings/chances. All/Chadli/Son have scored worldlies in the last two games and we cannot expect that every week. And defending set pieces is the other thing that still looks shaky.
Well done Poch
F*ck off Pardew
Interesting to see Poch (now he knows his players that much more) making that tactical switch taking Dier off. And it worked!
