Nervy but job done. Needed too with the other results.

Hugely important win considering the injuries.

McTominay did very well. Fred was crap in the first half but got a lot better in the 2nd.

Feared the worst before the game with the injuries, but fairly comfortable evening all things considered. 5pts to Spurs now :devil:

Away from that nervy period after their goal think that was a professional job done. Good work and 3 important points.

Brilliant to get the win with so many out injured, looks like every point will be vital in the top 4 race.

Delighted for Garner, hope he's another one that makes it.

Good win that, impressed with McT. Always felt that this is his best position.
That Shaw run for the first goal :drool:
Happy to see Lukaku score, Sanchez is done.

Great result.

I'd put it second only to Spurs away of the Ole era.

So satisfying to finally be able to bounce back from draws with good wins. Something that hasn’t been happening since 2013.

Job done, move on. Hopefully we have some back for the Arsenal game at least.

Good considering our injuries and Palace are decent.

Sanchez is so frustrating and just poor overall.
Dalot done well.
Lukaku 2 brilliant finishes but poor at most other things.
Lindelof the boss.
McSauce good.
Fred offered absolutely nothing.

Great win. Delighted for Garner too. Was lovely to see all the coaching staff wishing him well as he went on.

Shaw is quality
Young plays for the shirt, he was pressing their left back in the 93rd minute.
When everyone else's fuel tank is empty, Paul still has 10% more
Lukaku can do class stuff at times and can't hit a 2m pass at times.

Delighted with the three points given the injury situation. We made that much harder for ourselves than it had to be, faffing about with the ball around our own area in the build up to their goal. However, in the end we did more than enough to walk away winners. Onto the next one.

Good performance. A few periods of uncertainty but we defended well and took our chances in attack. Delighted for Lukaku

Onwards and upwards!

Great win. Not the best performance but some promising signs from the likes of McTominay.

Lukaku is such a mixed bag. Don't think he's consistent enough to be the main man unfortunately.

Massive win, very important result with Arsenal and Chelsea winning and with the flip side being that Spurs lost that means just 5 points behind Spurs, so there could end up being 2 Top 4 spots up for grabs and it looks like it'll be a scrap to get them. Any two of the four could take it. Surviving today with all our injuries is fantastic.

Good result. Lukaku stepped up, Dalot played well as did Shaw.

Probably a bit tired overall and Pogba had an off game today. But, it's the result that matters and against a resurgent team this was a good performance.

Was very impressed by McTominay and Shaw. Well done. Fred and Sanchez were shite. No excuses for Sanchez but Fred hadn't played in ages so not giving up on him yet.

What i liked the most was that we went and got the 3rd goal after it went 2-1, we showed a bit of balls and went and killed the game.

Editing my own posts.
Great performance away at Palace with a depleted team. Only the most miserable and agendad can have any complaints.

Really comfortable bar a little spell after they scored.
To put a performance like that on after all our injuries is fantastic!
Really pleased for Lukaku, hopefully he can keep it up.
Only negatives were obviously the goal which was a collection of errors, and I thought Sanchez was just rubbish.
Went down too easily constantly in the second half, I don't like that kind of play at United; take your man on properly.
