Fabregas, he dominated the game. Everyone played well today, we just didn't have our shooting boots on.

Fabregas would have been nothing without Courtois. What a mensch! What a keeper. What a club. KTBFFH

Fabregas was fantastic, we seem to pass better as a team when he plays. Courtois was there when we needed him, and Costa, Kante, and Azpilicueta were solid aswell.

All in all decent away perfomance, should have been more comfortable. Another tricky away game at palace before 2 home games to see in the new year. 

I thought Kante was brilliant. It was his interception that lead to Fab's goal. His ability to read the game and break up passes is one of the best I have ever seen.

Courtois made 2 big saves, our one goal would have meant nothing without him.

Kante was amazing but will have to give it to Tibo as that save gave us a six point lead. Massive as well considering tonite's results.

I hate to give it to a player that only worked for 60 seconds the whole match but the save in extra time was exceptional so Tibo it is. It's so harsh on Dave who was world class all match.

That guy

Really wanted to vote Fabregas but those saves from Tibo were massive so he wins by a slight edge.

Tibo would be my pick.

That save was the difference between 1 and 3 points.

Honourable mention to Fabregas and Kante.

Tibo.

He's divided opinions on here a lot over the last year and a bit, but those two saves won the 3 points. 

Fabregas had a brilliant game but ive gone for Courtois without them big saves we wouldn't of won the game 

Went for Azpilicueta, but Thibo and Kante were also fantastic.

Our keeper for me.

Didn't watch and as I take the SH MOTM votes extremely seriously, I won't vote so as not to wrongly influence the result.

Highlights looked good though.. what a save from Tibo

Hard decision between Courtois and Kante.... 

I'd go with Courtois, his saves saved us and gave us a win, clean sheet, 6 points at the top.

Kante work helped get us the goal

Try to see it this way, without the goal, the best courtouis can offer is 1 point for a draw... There is no negative point so there is only so much for what a goalkeeper can offer.. Doesn't matter how many world class saves a GK makes in a game, if his side doesn't score, it's still at most 1 point for the team..

 

However, speaking about the sunderland game, it would have been a f*cking downer had we conceded that goal in the last minute of the game so thibaut gets my vote for the 'sight of relieved' sake..

 

 

Fabregas

Dave was good at the back especially second half read all the balls up to Defoe and picked his pocket each time. My vote though goes to Tibo for the two second half saves. Being there and seeing him celebrate after they are like scoring a goal.

Love the props four Courtois, but Goals only get the 3 points, plus Cesc played ridiculously well..
