good job from Azpi there. the penalty taker is the penalty taker. 

I don't think Crystal Palace can complain about that. Ayew went down too easily.

PULIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IS ON!!! WELCOME BACK!

I really wish penalty goals didn't count towards stats. 

Leadership from Azpi!! 

Chilwell looking so smug and I love it.

Jorgi looked a bit selfish but that's a goal. 

He is the designated penalty taker though, nothing selfish about it.

Good pressing for that second penalty.

Lovely stuff - Jorginho must have an awesome penalty record - I think I can only remember him missing two (one of which was in a shoot-out as I recall).

Bit of an odd setup though - Silva and Chilwell in a position to pressure their defence in possession in the top right of the pitch because they were retreating from the corner.

Vs Man City in the League Cup Final

Vs Liverpool the other day

Much more comfortable now from us, than I thought it would be before the game.

 

Whats chance we Get 3 pens in one game and a player hitting a hat rick in one game via pens 

Tammy knows better, he is the number 9 if he wants a goal score 1

83 mins and FL makes his first change...genius...well done Dave good captaincy that...

Azpi is a true captain, Tammy wasn't happy but listened to Azpi then after the conversion Azpi went straight to Tammy and said something to Tammy. I can only imagine it was a "thanks for listening" or something along them lines

Much better in the second half from us. Pleasing.

He made changes last week against spuds and they went on to get a goal. He doesn't make changes we go 4 nil up and your still whining? Get f**ked. 

Really enjoyed watched Havertz today. Seems to play the game in his own time, which is often the sign of a top class player.

Transfermarkt only seems to record penalties taken in normal time (i.e. not counting shoot outs) , but I think you're spot on:

We have played well in this half. I do think Crystal Palace have made it very easy for us though. We haven't had to deal with a team closing us down all over the pitch, which is very rare these days. The defence and midfield will be happy to have had it easy for once. Kepa is probably saying to himself "why didn't I get to play in games like this" ?

Chilwell is for me the motm but Kai is just brilliant, he does so much with minimal touches, really a world class talent.
