Palace with a few nasty tackles. No bookings yet.

Maddison should have squared it to Son for an easy tap in. Then he missed from 5 yards out with a volley he could have got into the ground but tried to put too much power on it.

Another foul from Palace to prevent a breakaway and no yellow. This referee is very lenient.

As a spectacle this needs a Spurs goal to draw Palace out more.

As a result, 0-0 would be lovely.

Edouard should have been booked for that foul on Romero and then a minute later another nasty tackle on Van De Ven.

Still no bookings. This is brilliant but I’d be absolutely fuming if I was a Spurs fan. Their players are getting zero protection here from the ref.

Palace are such a dirty side. Can't believe they haven't received a single yellow yet.

Palace the cause of their own downfall. Almost a disaster from the keeper on the ball then a minute later an own goal.

Kulusevski ans Richarlison are so poor. Spurs definitely need to upgrade there.

Watching this Tottenham team....seeing them actually having midfielders in the centre of the pitch and play it in there....almost brings tears to my eyes

Surely Postecoglu’s luck has to run out eventually? OG’s, phantom offsides and what not.

Watching Palace is like watching Spurs under Conte, just with a lot more niggling fouls whenever Spurs go forward.

This is a very good Spurs side now. 11 points behind them.

Palace deserve that. I can’t believe their lack of press. They’re literally standing watching Spurs pass it around.

Spurs need a right winger with speed. Kulusevski is really slow.

Tottenham look so much better than us at playing out and turning it into an attack. Great goal

Don't think Spurs have been that great really. Just a good time to play Palace in the season as without Olise and Eze they're toothless and paceless in final third.

That second goal, the patience in passing, the confidence for the midfield to take the ball in tight spaces in the centre and then the positioning of the players to pull a stubborn palace apart. Honestly just great football.

So much this, what are Palace getting at? 1 nil down and just standing around hoping Spurs make an error. 2 down now.

Kulu is an odd one as he can carry the ball well over long distances when he gets control of it.

Johnson can play on the right so Spurs have plenty of options in final third as the season goes on.

Chelsea, Wolves, Villa, City, West Ham and Newcastle next up.

Think that will be a tricky run-in - two derbies, City and Newcastle away and in-form Villa. The benefit is they play once a week.

What is the point of bringing Clyne on?!

Give Franca some minutes. The touted Zaha replacement so that would excite the crowd.
