Well as they say, you can only beat what is in front of you. And West Ham were on a par with Burnley in terms of performance.

But OG once again came up trumps tactically and you can see the players becoming increasingly able to compete over the whole course of the game now.

As at Liverpool, the team performed to a high standard - although I can't include Henderson in that. I thought he was too passive for their first goal and the second was schoolboy stuff. Not a good look for someone hoping to get a Euros spot.

Ebs and Olise will grab the headlines understandably, but I thought Richards and Clyne were star performers too. OG seems to have enabled a renaissance in Nat - great to see.

A wonderful afternoon which I was still celebrating in the Station pub in Hove at 10pm.

Old, Ungifted and White

I'm perfectly willing to entertain the notion, and perhaps concede, that Ollie is a better coach than Roy for our squad at the moment. On the other hand, the arrival and growth of Wharton & Munoz, the joint availability of Eze and Olise, and the confidence of JPP (born of starts, time, and perhaps even spring weather) – have been an immense help to Glasner, assistance not available to Roy.

The only decision for which I fault Roy entirely is his favoring Ward over Clyne (or Richards), but even that choice is one which most fans appeared to support. Demoting our loyal, long-serving captain can't be easy.

He had a shocker - apart from that late save. He is extremely reluctant to play out from the back yet his first long kick and throw went straight to opposition players in the Palace half

Fantastic couple of performances on the trot in which we've displayed different styles to get the job done. Great to see and a huge amount of credit to Glasner and his team.

A massive test on Wednesday now against a rested and resurgent Newcastle. Hopefully we can put in another strong display and keep the run going.

I said sorry last week so not doing it again.
Much humble pie has been eaten and enjoyed.
The journey home yesterday was most enjoyable!
I look forward to the last few games with a new found zest!

I wouldn’t say Roy favouring Ward over Clyne should be debated over Glasner now playing Clyne. Roy played Ward as a right back and most of us realised both him and Clyne struggled in that position. Now we have Munoz both Ward and Clyne have played on the right of a middle 3 at the back and both have looked better in that position. Munoz does the running for them as a wing back and neither of them could do that anymore at their ages. Clyne got the nod over Ward because he got a knock. They both have played well in that position but Clyne has taken that role slightly better and deserves his place. With Guehi returning I doubt either of them will keep their place but will be great having them on the bench in case of injuries/tiredness. As for which one gets a new contract for next season or perhaps both will, I can’t see either of them getting much game time next season unless we have major injuries again? :-)
