I said 2-0. Should have put a bet on it

Mane 2-0 right at the death

two games two clean sheets  Get in there !!

Final whistle. We looked solid all night, but Palace hard to break down. So 0-2. Good result.

Well done 3 points + clean sheet. Palace played very well, will be a very tough team to break down all season. We have started to shown we can be patient and grind out a tough win

Big Virgil was immense......again

Allison’s distribution magnificent

Naby was impressive but started to fade towards the end of the game.

I thought our front 3 were relatively quiet but 3 points at ground were many of the top teams will falter this season is a fantastic result. Palace are grafters and will be hard to beat at home.

We move on in this marathon. Only City stands between us over the next 36 games.

tough match and a good result... but at the same time should've scored more goals... Mane at times guilty of being too casual in front of the goal...

Real garbage performance. Palace wanted it more and it showed.
Lazy uninspired and lucky it was 1-0 after 70 min.
So many players were really poor and only a few got a passing grade.

Not good enough and will not be enough in the long run.

Massive win  Didn't think we would score a heap but that is exactly the type of game we could have conceded a few.  Not sure we would have taken all 3 points this time last year.

Van Dijk is just a monster and should be our captain, Solid performance tonight. Becker is quality and Keita is a wee dynamo and I think those 3 made the difference tonight. Gomez deserves a mention also as he had a great game to follow up on last week. Never looked out of place at all.

Front 3 looked a bit tired. Internationals coming up and Klopp should be doing his best to persuade Firmino to sit it out. He looks knackered.

2 games, 2 clean sheets and 6points in the bag 

Strength all over pitch much stronger at back. VVD was an OX Gomez had a quality game along side him. ALLISON looks calm and assured his passing was incredible. We would have lost this last season and before. A team that's strong throughout and a bench to match exciting times ahead !!!

The only fault I have with the game was how late we were making changes. I thought Wjnaldum, Keita and Milner were really towing second half. I think when Palace went down to 10 we should have got a couple of fresh legs on and really pushed for that 2nd.

Either way we pulled through with a solid performance.. and having a calm keeper at the back eases so much pressure.

We looked rock solid for the most part. Just should have brought Shaqiri on for Firmino earlier around 65 mins as good old Bobby was not at the races today.

And why bring Lallana on? He's cr*p!!

Don't be fooled to think that we can play cavalier and entertaining football against all teams, all season long. Against a solid team like Palace who are well organised and have quality all over the field, and how they played compact and restricted our forward line much clear cut chances all night. I though the midfield of Keita and Milner absolutely bossed it, while our defense are totally unrecognisable from last season. We are now the only team in the PL who have yet to concede a goal, so big kudos to the team. In previous seasons, e would have struggle to bring home a point so successfully negotiating this kind of games are vital for us to go for No.19

My thought exactly

I was impressed by Sakho tonight, bar one error. Considering that tool Lovren is acting an even bigger eejit I'd be happier to have the former than the latter right now.
